A return rubber 69 is attached to the tip of the outer rail 62 (upper right part in FIG. 2) at a position corresponding to the maximum flying portion of the sphere, and the ball launched at a predetermined momentum or more hits the return rubber 69 and gains momentum. Is bounced back to the center while being attenuated.

  First symbol display devices 37A and 37B each having a plurality of LEDs and a 7-segment display as light emitting means are disposed in the lower left portion of the game area when viewed from the front (lower left portion in FIG. 2). The first symbol display devices 37A and 37B display according to each control performed by the main control device 110 (see FIG. 4), and mainly display the gaming state of the pachinko machine 10. In the present embodiment, the first symbol display devices 37 </ b> A and 37 </ b> B are configured to be selectively used depending on whether the ball has won the first prize opening 64 or the second prize opening 640. Specifically, when the ball wins the first winning opening 64, the first symbol display device 37A operates, while when the ball wins the second winning opening 640, the first symbol display device 37A operates. The symbol display device 37B is configured to operate.

  In addition, the first symbol display devices 37A and 37B indicate, by means of LEDs, whether the pachinko machine 10 is in the process of changing the probability, in the short time, or in the normal state by a lighting state, or whether the pachinko machine 10 is changing or not by a lighting state. , Indicating whether the stop symbol is a symbol corresponding to a probable jackpot, a symbol corresponding to a normal jackpot, or a symbol that is out of place by a lighting state, indicating the number of held balls by a lighting state, and a 7-segment display device, Displays numbers and errors. The plurality of LEDs are configured to have different emission colors (for example, red, green, and blue) of each LED, and the combination of the emission colors may suggest various gaming states of the pachinko machine 10 with a small number of LEDs. it can.

  In the present pachinko machine 10, a lottery is performed in response to winning of the first winning port 64 and the second winning port 640. In the lottery, the pachinko machine 10 determines whether or not it is a big hit (big hit lottery), and also determines the type of the big hit if it is determined to be a big hit. As the jackpot type determined here, 15R probability variation jackpot, 4R probability variation jackpot, and 15R normal jackpot are prepared. The first symbol display devices 37A and 37B not only indicate whether or not the lottery result is a jackpot as a stop symbol after the end of the variation, but if it is a jackpot, a symbol corresponding to the jackpot type is displayed. .

  Here, the “15R probability variation jackpot” is a probability variation jackpot in which the maximum number of rounds shifts to a high probability state after a jackpot of 15 rounds, and “4R probability variation jackpot” is a jackpot with a maximum number of rounds of four. It is a probabilistic jackpot that shifts to a high probability state after. In addition, “15R normal jackpot” is a jackpot that shifts to a low probability state after the maximum number of rounds of 15 rounds and hits a short time during a predetermined number of fluctuations (for example, 100 fluctuations). is there.

  In addition, the “high probability state” means a state in which the jackpot probability thereafter increases as an added value after the jackpot ends, that is, when the probability change is in progress (probability change), in other words, a game that easily shifts to the special game state. It is a state of. The high probability state (during probability change) in the present embodiment includes a game state in which the hit probability of the second symbol, which will be described later, is increased and the ball is likely to win the second winning opening 640. The “low probability state” refers to a time when the probability of jackpot change is not occurring, and a state where the jackpot probability is normal, that is, a state where the jackpot probability is lower than that at the time of probability change. The short time state (short time medium) of the “low probability state” means that the jackpot probability is a normal state, and the jackpot probability remains as it is, and only the hit probability of the second symbol is increased, and the second prize opening 640 is obtained. It means the state of the game where the ball is easy to win. On the other hand, when the pachinko machine 10 is in a normal state is a game state (a state where neither the big hit probability nor the second symbol hit probability is increased) which is neither probabilistic nor short in time.

  During probability change and time reduction, not only does the probability of winning the second symbol increase, but also the time for opening the electric accessory 640a associated with the second prize opening 640 is changed, and the time is longer than normal. Is set. When the electric accessory 640a is in the opened state (open state), the ball wins the second winning opening 640 as compared to the case where the electric accessory 640a is in the closed state (closed state). Easy state. Therefore, during the probability change or the short time, it becomes easy for the ball to win the second winning opening 640, and the number of jackpot lotteries can be increased.

  In addition, during the probability change or during the short time, it is not necessary to change the opening time of the electric accessory 640a associated with the second prize opening 640, or in addition to changing the opening time, It is good also as what changes the frequency | count that the accessory 640a opens more than usual. In addition, the probability of winning the second symbol is not changed during the probability change or in the short time, and the electric accessory 640a is released at the time when the electric accessory 640a associated with the second winning opening 640 is opened and once. It is good also as what changes at least one of the frequency | counts. In addition, during the probability change or in the short time, the time of opening the electric accessory 640a associated with the second winning opening 640 or the number of times of opening the electric accessory 640a per time is not counted, and the second symbol hit Only the probability may be changed so as to increase compared to the normal rate.

  The game area is provided with a plurality of general winning ports 63 through which 5 to 15 balls are paid out as winning balls when the balls win. In addition, a variable display device unit 80 is disposed in the central portion of the game area. The variable display device unit 80 is synchronized with the variable display on the first symbol display devices 37A and 37B by using a winning (start winning) at the first winning port 64 and the second winning port 640 as a trigger. It is composed of a third symbol display device 81 composed of a liquid crystal display (hereinafter simply referred to as “display device”) that performs variable display, and an LED that displays the second symbol in a variable manner with the passage of a sphere of the through gate 67 as a trigger. A second symbol display device (not shown) is provided. The variable display device unit 80 is provided with a center frame 86 so as to surround the outer periphery of the third symbol display device 81.

  The third symbol display device 81 is constituted by a large 9-inch liquid crystal display, and the display content is controlled by the display control device 114 (see FIG. 4). One symbol row is displayed. Each symbol row is composed of a plurality of symbols (third symbol). These third symbols are horizontally scrolled for each symbol column, and the third symbol is variably displayed on the display screen of the third symbol display device 81. It is like that. In the third symbol display device 81 of the present embodiment, the game state is displayed on the first symbol display devices 37A and 37B in accordance with the control of the main control device 110 (see FIG. 4). The decorative display according to the display of the symbol display devices 37A and 37B is performed. Instead of the display device, the third symbol display device 81 may be configured using, for example, a reel.

  Each time the sphere passes through the through gate 67, the second symbol display device alternately turns on the symbol “◯” and the symbol “X” as a display symbol (second symbol (not shown)) for a predetermined time. A variable display is performed. In the pachinko machine 10, when it is detected that the ball has passed through the through gate 67, a winning lottery is performed. As a result of the winning lottery, if the winning symbol is a winning symbol, the symbol “◯” is stopped and displayed on the second symbol display device after the variation of the second symbol is displayed. Further, if the winning lottery results, the symbol of “x” is stopped and displayed on the second symbol display device after the variation of the third symbol is displayed.

  In the pachinko machine 10, when the variable display on the second symbol display device stops at a predetermined symbol (in this embodiment, a symbol “◯”), the electric accessory 640a attached to the second winning opening 640 is displayed for a predetermined time. It is configured to be in an activated state (opened) only.

  The time required for the variable display of the second symbol is set to be shorter during the probability change or during the shorter time than when the game state is normal. As a result, during the probability change and during the time reduction, since the variation display of the second symbol is performed in a short time, the winning lottery can be performed more than during normal. Therefore, since the chance of winning in the winning lottery increases, it is possible to give the player a lot of opportunities for the electric winning component 640a of the second winning opening 640 to be in an open state. Therefore, it is possible to make it easier for the ball to win the second winning opening 640 during the probability change and during the short time.

  It is to be noted that the probability of winning is increased during probability change or time reduction, and other methods such as increasing the opening time and the number of times of opening of the electric accessory 640a per hit are also used to reach the second prize opening 640 during probability change or time reduction. When the ball is in a state where it is easy to win, the time required for the variable display of the second symbol may be constant regardless of the gaming state. On the other hand, when the time required for displaying the variation of the second symbol is set shorter than normal during probability change or short time, the winning probability may be constant regardless of the gaming state, The opening time and the number of opening times of the electric accessory 640a may be constant regardless of the gaming state.

  The through gate 67 is assembled to the game board 13 in the left and right regions of the variable display device unit 80, and is configured so that a part of the ball launched to the game board 13 can pass therethrough. When the ball passes through the through gate 67, a winning lottery of the second symbol is performed. After winning the lottery, the 2nd symbol display device displays a variation, and if the winning lottery results, the symbol “○” is displayed as the variable display stop symbol, and the winning lottery result may be off For example, the symbol “x” is displayed as the stop symbol of the variable display.

  The total number of passes through the through-gate 67 of the sphere is held up to a maximum of 4 times, and the number of held balls is displayed by the above-described first symbol display devices 37A and 37B and at the second symbol hold lamp (not shown). Is also displayed. Four second symbol holding lamps are provided for the maximum number of holdings, and are arranged symmetrically below the third symbol display device 81.

  Note that the variable display of the second symbol is performed by switching between lighting and non-lighting of a plurality of lamps in the second symbol display device as in the present embodiment, as well as the first symbol display devices 37A, 37B and the third symbol. A part of the symbol display device 81 may be used. Similarly, the second symbol holding lamp may be turned on by a part of the third symbol display device 81. Further, the maximum number of balls held for passing through the ball of the through gate 67 is not limited to four times, and may be set to three times or less, or five times or more (for example, eight times). Further, the number of through gates 67 to be assembled is not limited to two, and may be one, for example. Further, the assembly position of the through gate 67 is not limited to the left and right of the variable display device unit 80, and may be, for example, below the variable display device unit 80. In addition, since the number of reserved balls is indicated by the first symbol display devices 37A and 37B, the second symbol hold lamp may not perform lighting display.

  Below the variable display unit 80, a first winning port 64 through which a ball can win is disposed. When a ball wins the first winning port 64, a first winning port switch (not shown) provided on the back side of the game board 13 is turned on, and the main controller 110 is caused by the first winning port switch being turned on. A jackpot lottery is made (see FIG. 4), and a display corresponding to the lottery result is shown on the first symbol display device 37A.

  On the other hand, a second winning port 640 through which a ball can win is disposed below the first winning port 64 in front view. When a ball wins the second prize opening 640, a second prize opening switch (not shown) provided on the back side of the game board 13 is turned on, and the main controller 110 is caused by the second prize opening switch being turned on. A jackpot lottery is performed (see FIG. 4), and a display corresponding to the lottery result is shown on the first symbol display device 37B.

  Each of the first winning port 64 and the second winning port 640 is also one of winning ports from which five balls are paid out as winning balls when a ball is won. In the present embodiment, the number of prize balls to be paid out when a ball wins the first prize opening 64 and the number of prize balls to be paid out when a ball wins the second prize slot 640 are configured to be the same. The number of prize balls to be paid out when a ball wins the first prize opening 64 is different from the number of prize balls to be paid out when a ball wins to the second prize opening 640, for example, the ball to the first prize opening 64 The number of prize balls to be paid out when a prize is won may be three, and the number of prize balls to be paid out when a ball wins the second prize opening 640 may be five.

  The second winning opening 640 is accompanied by an electric accessory 640a. The electric accessory 640a is configured to be openable and closable. Normally, the electric accessory 640a is in a closed state (reduced state), and it is difficult for the ball to win the second winning opening 640. On the other hand, when the symbol “◯” is displayed on the second symbol display device as a result of the variation display of the second symbol that is triggered by the passage of the ball to the through gate 67, the electric accessory 640a is in an open state (enlarged) State), and the ball is likely to win the second winning opening 640.

  As described above, the probability of hitting the second symbol is higher than that during normal change during the probability change and the short time, and the time required for the variation display of the second symbol is short. "Is easily displayed, and the number of times that the electric accessory 640a is opened (enlarged) is increased. Further, during the probability change and the time reduction, the time for opening the electric accessory 640a also becomes longer than during the normal time. Therefore, it is possible to create a state where the ball is likely to win the second winning opening 640 during the probability change and during the short time compared to the normal time.

  Here, the probability of winning a big hit is the same in both the low probability state and the high probability state when the ball wins the first winning port 64 and when the ball wins the second winning port 640. However, the probability that a 15R probability variation jackpot is selected as the jackpot type selected when the jackpot is won is higher when the ball wins the second winning slot 640 than when the ball wins the first winning slot 64. Is set. On the other hand, the first winning port 64 does not have an electric accessory as in the second winning port 640, and is in a state where the ball can always win.

  Therefore, during normal times, the electric winnings associated with the second winning opening 640 are often in a closed state, and it is difficult to win the second winning opening 640. Then, the ball is fired so that the ball passes to the left of the variable display device unit 80 (so-called “left-handed”), and a lot of opportunities for lottery wins are obtained by winning at the first winning opening 64, resulting in a big hit It is advantageous for the player to aim for this.

  On the other hand, during the probability change or during the short time, passing the ball through the through gate 67 makes it easy for the electric accessory 640a attached to the second winning opening 640 to be in an open state and to easily win the second winning opening 640. Therefore, the ball is fired toward the second prize opening 640 so that the ball passes the right side of the variable display device 80 (so-called “right-handed”), and is passed through the through gate 67 to open the electric accessory. In addition, it is more advantageous for the player to aim for a 15R probability variation jackpot by winning the second winning opening 640.

  In the pachinko machine 10 according to the present embodiment, since the configuration of the game board 13 is symmetrical, aiming at the first winning port 64 by “right-handed” or setting the second winning port 640 by “left-handed”. You can also aim. For this reason, the pachinko machine 10 according to the present embodiment allows the player to launch a ball according to the gaming state of the pachinko machine 10 (whether it is probable, short, or normal). Can be changed to “left-handed” and “right-handed”. Therefore, the troublesomeness of changing how to hit the ball can be eliminated.

  A variable winning device 330 (see FIG. 11) is disposed below the first winning port 64, and a specific winning port 65a is provided at a substantially central portion thereof. In the pachinko machine 10, when the jackpot lottery performed due to the winning at the first winning port 64 or the second winning port 640 becomes a jackpot, after a predetermined time (variable time) has passed, The first symbol display device 37A or the first symbol display device 37B is turned on, and a stop symbol corresponding to the jackpot is displayed on the third symbol display device 81 to indicate the occurrence of the jackpot. Thereafter, the gaming state transitions to a special gaming state (big hit) where the ball is easy to win. In this special gaming state, the special winning opening 65a that is normally closed is opened for a predetermined time (for example, until 30 seconds have elapsed or ten balls have been won).

  The specific winning opening 65a is closed when a predetermined time elapses, and after the closing, the specific winning opening 65a is opened again for a predetermined time. The opening / closing operation of the specific winning opening 65a can be repeated up to 15 times (15 rounds), for example. The state in which the opening / closing operation is performed is a form of a special gaming state advantageous to the player, and the player is given out a larger amount of prize balls than usual in order to give a gaming value (game value). Is done.

  Note that the special gaming state is not limited to the above-described form. When the game area is provided with a large opening that is opened and closed separately from the specific winning opening 65a, and the LED corresponding to the jackpot is turned on in the first symbol display devices 37A and 37B, the specific winning opening 65a is opened for a predetermined time, A special game in which a large opening provided separately from the specific winning port 65a is opened for a predetermined time and a predetermined number of times when the ball wins into the specific winning port 65a while the specific winning port 65a is opened. You may make it form as a state. Further, the number of the specific winning opening 65a is not limited to one, and one or more than two (for example, three) may be arranged, and the arrangement position is the lower right side of the first winning opening 64 or the first For example, the left side of the variable display unit 80 is not limited to the lower left side of the winning opening 64.

The swing operation member 310 includes an accommodation recess 17 a and a lower plate that are recessed in the front-rear direction along the outer frame of the upper plate 17. The region formed by the housing recess 15a that is recessed in the vertical direction at the central portion in the left-right direction of the unit 15 can be moved.

  There is a gap between the swing operation member 310 and the housing recesses 15a and 17a so that at least a finger of a hand can easily enter. Thereby, the player can hold the swinging operation member 310 in such a manner as to hold it from above. When the swinging operation member 310 is gripped from above, a finger placed between the swinging operation member 310 and the housing recess 17a is caught on the side surface on the back side of the swinging operation member 310, and the hand is in that state. Even if this force is removed and left to gravity, the hand is prevented from sliding off the swing operation member 310. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the burden of the player maintaining his / her hand on the swing operation device 310.

  Since the player holds the operation handle 51 with the right hand, the swing operation member 310 is often operated with the left hand. Therefore, in the following description, it demonstrates on the assumption that a player operates the swing operation member 310 with a left hand.

  6 (a) is a partial front view of the pachinko machine 10, FIG. 6 (b) is a partial cross-sectional view of the pachinko machine 10 along the line VIb-VIb in FIG. 6 (a), and FIG. These are the partial front views of the pachinko machine 10, and FIG.7 (b) is a fragmentary sectional view of the pachinko machine 10 in the VIIb-VIIb line | wire of Fig.7 (a).

  6 and 7, the vicinity of the operation device 300 of the pachinko machine 10 is partially illustrated. 6 illustrates a state in which the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the upward position (initial position in the present embodiment), and in FIG. 7, the swing operation member 310 is in the downward position (the depressed position in the present embodiment). ) Is illustrated, and a hand holding the swing operation member 310 is illustrated by an imaginary line.

  The housing recess 15 a of the lower dish unit 15 and the housing recess 17 a of the upper dish 17 are arranged sufficiently apart from the outer shape of the swing operation member 310. Therefore, when a player holds the swing operation member 310 and performs a push-down operation, it is possible to prevent the finger from being pinched between the swing operation member 310 and the housing recess 15a and the housing recess 17a.

  As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the player puts his / her finger on the intermediate frame member 312 and holds the swing operation member 310. In this state, the lens member 317 that also serves as a push button portion is disposed facing the palm, so that the player can perform an operation of pushing the vibration member 310 by grasping the swing operation member 310 while grasping it. Therefore, it is possible to push the lens member 317 while holding the swing operation member 310 without pressing the push button with a finger or holding the swing operation member 310 while holding the swing operation member 310. it can. Therefore, the operation can be simplified.

  The lens member 317 disposed on the swing operation member 310 is disposed at a position where it hits the palm when the player holds the swing operation member 310. Therefore, by detecting that the player is holding the swing operation member 310 and then vibrating the lens member 317, vibration can be transmitted to the player (such as his palm or finger). It is possible to prevent a situation where the person is not noticed. Therefore, the effect of the operation device 300 can be improved.

  Further, by pushing the lens member 317 in accordance with the vibration, it is possible to produce an effect so that the timing of the input operation can be achieved, and the game is too concentrated on the timing of the input operation. The problem of being unable to concentrate can be solved.

  Since the lens member 317 is hidden inside the player's hand in a state where the player holds the swing operation member 310, whether the lens member 317 is vibrating (the lens member 317 is relative to the intermediate frame member 312). It is difficult for a player other than the player holding the swing operation member 310 to know whether or not it is moving. Therefore, it is possible to give a jackpot notification only to the player holding the swing operation member 310, and to improve the interest of the player.

  As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the front / rear position and the vertical position of the swing operation member 310 are different between the state in which the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the upward position and the state in which the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the downward position. Thereby, when operating the swing operation member 310, the player moves the position of the hand in the vertical direction and the front-rear direction, so that it is possible to obtain a feeling that the player is operating.

  When the player holds the swing operation member 310, the player's finger swings to the intermediate frame member 312, and the player's fingertip is caught by the back side frame member 311. Since the back side frame member 311 is warped in a manner of drawing an arc having a center of curvature radius on the back side, the fingertip can be easily hooked on the back side frame member 311, as shown in FIG. Even in a posture in which the wrist is hardened as in the case where the swing operation member 310 is disposed at the downward position, the fingertip can be prevented from coming off the back side frame member 311.

  Further, since the fingertip is caught by the back side frame member 311, the vibration of the vibration device 366 (see FIG. 11) can be confined inside the palm, and the vibration felt by the player can be largely ensured.

  As shown in FIG. 7, when the swing operation member 310 is pushed down from the state shown in FIG. 6, the wrist naturally returns as the swing operation member 310 moves downward in front of the player. Therefore, the operation (see FIG. 22B) for pushing the swing operation member 310 to the back can be performed by extending the wrist in such a manner as to release the turning of the wrist. Thereby, the burden of the player who operates the swing operation member 310 can be reduced.

  As shown in FIG. 6, compared to the arm length R1 from the lower end portion of the swing operation member 310 to the shaft support rod 363 that is the rotation shaft of the swing operation member 310, the upper end portion of the swing operation member 310 The arm length R2 up to the shaft support rod 363 that is the rotation shaft of the swing operation member 310 is long. Thus, when the upper part of the swing operation member 310 is gripped and the swing operation member 310 is rotated about the pivotal support rod 363, the swing operation member 310 can be easily rotated (by a light force). On the other hand, a large force can be required when the user swings the lower end portion of the swing operation member 310 and rotates the swing operation member 310 about the pivot bar 363 (incorrect operation). Therefore, the burden on the player when the upper part of the swing operation member 310 is gripped and the swing operation member 310 is rotated can be reduced, and the player places a hand on the lower end of the swing operation member 310 and An erroneous operation of rotating the swing operation member 310 can be suppressed.

  The recessed portion 312a1 is a portion through which the arm portion 315f of the switch member 315 is inserted, and the distal end portion of the arm portion 315f of the switch member 315 is locked to the side wall portion 312b (see FIG. 21A). Thus, the switch member 315 is disposed so that it cannot be pulled out with respect to the intermediate frame member 312.

  The switch support bar 312c is a member that is inserted through the vibration guide member 313, the vibration member 314, and the switch member 315 in common. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the vibration member 314 and the switch member 315 from being inclined in the operation direction when the vibration member 314 and the switch member 315 are operated in the front-rear direction (stacking direction of the respective members). Therefore, for example, even when a force is applied to the lens member 317 from the front-rear direction and the inclined direction, it is possible to suppress resistance from being pushed in the lens member 317 and to improve the operability of the push-in operation. . Further, when the vibration member 314 is vibrated by the vibration device 366, the vibration member 314 can be prevented from being inclined.

  Here, the vibration of the vibration device 366 means a vibration that the member shakes finely, a reciprocating operation in which the member moves in a linear direction, and collides with another member at the end of movement and returns.

  The back button member 312d is usually disposed at a position protruding to the back side by a coil spring interposed between the bottom button 312a and includes a plate-like detection piece 312d1 at the center on the front side.

The light guide member 313 a is inserted into the vibration member 314, the switch member 315, and the intermediate member 316, so that the distal end portion is disposed opposite to the lens member 317 (closely disposed). Therefore, the light emitted from the light emitting member can be guided to the vicinity of the lens member 317, and the effect of causing the lens member 317 to emit light can be improved.

  Further, as described above, the vibration member 314 and the switch member 315 are prevented from being tilted in the operation direction when the vibration member 314 and the switch member 315 are operated in the front-rear direction (stacking direction of each member). Further, when the switch member 315 is inclined, it can be prevented from coming into contact with the light guide member 313a and damaging the light guide member 313a.

  The first sensor member 313c is a detection member that detects that the detection piece 315g (see FIG. 21A) disposed on the switch member 315 has passed through the gap and detects the arrangement of the switch member 315.

  The second sensor member 313d is a detection member that detects that the detection piece 312d1 has passed through the gap and detects a swinging posture of a swing operation member 310 described later.

  The vibration member 314 has a cross-sectional outer diameter shape that is substantially the same as the bottom portion 312a and a plurality of (through a substantially disc-shaped main body portion 314a in which no hole is formed in the central portion and a switch support rod 312c.

  Note that the pushing coil spring CS2 has a smaller elastic coefficient than the vibration coil spring CS1.

  Since the outer shape of the main body 314a is substantially the same as that of the bottom 312a, the arm 315f of the switch member 315 can be inserted through four recessed portions formed in the outer peripheral portion.

  The switch receiving member 314d is a cylindrical member in which a large-diameter portion 314d1 having a diameter larger than that of the switch support hole 314b is formed on the front side, and is inserted into the switch support hole 314b from the front side so as to have a large diameter. The portion 314d1 is locked in the switch support hole 314b. The pushing coil spring CS2 has an outer diameter smaller than that of the switch support hole 314b.

  The switch member 315 includes a disc-shaped main body 315a, a spring receiving portion 315b formed on the cup so as to project from the center of the main body 315a toward the front side (left side in FIG. 13), and a switch A switch support hole 315c through which the support bar 312c can be inserted, a light guide hole 315d formed through which the light guide member 313a can be inserted, and a pair of switch receiving members disposed at the upper and lower centers (upper and lower centers in FIG. 13). The guide shaft 315e inserted through 314d, the arm portion 315f inserted into the recessed portion 312a1 and locked, and the gap between the first sensor member 313c can be passed and the lower portion of the main body portion 315a (lower side in FIG. 13) ) And a plate-like detection piece 315g that protrudes on the back side.

  The switch support hole 315c is formed with a diameter larger than the outer diameter of the switch support bar 312c, and is formed with a diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the large diameter portion 314d1 of the switch receiving member 314d. Thereby, when the switch member 315 moves in the direction approaching the vibration member 314, the switch member 315 can be supported by the large-diameter portion 314d1.

  Since the guide shaft 315e is inserted through the switch receiving member 314d, the inclination of the switch member 315 with respect to the vibration member 314 can be suppressed.

  The intermediate member 316 includes a light guide hole 316a through which the light guide member 313a can be inserted, and is externally fixed to the switch member 315 so as not to be relatively rotatable.

  14 (a) is a front view of the eccentric cam member 333, FIG. 14 (b) is a bottom view of the eccentric cam member 333, and FIG. 14 (c) is XIVc-XIVc of FIG. 14 (a). It is sectional drawing of eccentric cam member 333 in a line.

  As shown in FIG. 14, the eccentric cam member 333 includes a main body portion 333a formed as a rotating gear, a cylindrical tubular portion 333b disposed coaxially with a rotation axis of the main body portion 333a, and a cylindrical shape thereof. A cam portion 333c that extends in the axial direction along a circle inscribed in the portion 333b, is slightly shorter than the cylindrical portion 333b, and is hollow inside, and a tip portion of the cylindrical portion 333b along the axial direction. A pair of cutouts 333d to be cut out, a plate-like rib portion 333e that connects the cylindrical portion 333b and the cam portion 333c in the direction passing through both axes, and a disc-shaped umbrella that covers the gear portion of the main body portion 333a Part 333f.

  The main body portion 333a and the cam portion 333c are arranged so as to be shifted in the axial direction (in a two-layer structure). Since the cam portion 333c is hollow, when the cam portion 333c comes into contact with the lever member 340, the cam portion 333c is slightly bent inward (elastically deformed) to absorb an impact.

  The cam portion 333c is a hollow annular portion having a circular outer shape, and is eccentrically fixed to the main body portion 333a.

  The notches 333d are for making the relative phase with the phase detection member 334 (see FIG. 15) unchanged, and a pair of notches arranged opposite to each other are formed with different circumferential lengths. As a result, it is possible to prevent the phase detection member 334 from being inverted 180 degrees and assembled.

  The rib portion 333e is arranged in such a manner that the cylindrical portion 333b is connected to a position farthest from the cylindrical portion 333b of the cam portion 333c, so that the strength of the cam portion 333c formed hollow is most strong. The strength of the weakened portion can be improved. Thereby, it can suppress that the cam part 333c is damaged.

  The rib portion 333e may be partially divided in the middle of the longitudinal direction. Thereby, when the degree of bending (elastic deformation) of the cam part 333c is small, no load is applied to the rib part 333e, and the rib part 333e is divided only when the degree of bending (elastic deformation) of the cam part 333c is large. The parts can be brought into contact with each other. Accordingly, the rib portion 333e can be prevented from being fatigued while the rib portion 333e is not in contact (when the degree of flexure (elastic deformation) of the cam portion 333c is small), and thus the durability of the rib portion 333e is improved. Can be made.

  15A is a front view of the phase detection member 334, FIG. 15B is a bottom view of the phase detection member 334, and FIG. 15C is XVc-XVc of FIG. 15A. It is sectional drawing of the phase detection member 334 in a line. In FIG. 15C, the annular convex portion 332i and the eccentric cam shaft 331d2 in the assembled state (see FIG. 17A) are illustrated by imaginary lines.

  As shown in FIG. 15, the phase detection member 334 is formed in a cylindrical shape whose diameter is enlarged on the way, and a shaft support portion 334 a that is externally supported by the eccentric cam shaft 331 d 2 (see FIG. 10), and its shaft support portion. A diameter-enlarged portion 334b that is connected to 334a and expands toward the front side (upward in FIG. 15C) (expanded in two steps), and an axial direction from the front-side end of the enlarged-diameter portion 334b Are mainly provided with a plate-like detection piece 334c extending in the shape and a detent projection 334d having a shape matching the notch 333d.

  The enlarged diameter portion 334b is a portion that is externally fitted to an annular convex portion 332i (see FIG. 10) that is annularly provided on the inner surface side of the right cover member 332. The eccentric cam shaft 331d2 is supported by the inner surface of the annular convex portion 332i, and the diameter-enlarged portion 334b of the phase detection member 334 is supported from the inner peripheral side by the outer surface of the annular convex portion 332i, so that the eccentric cam shaft 331d2 is strengthened. The eccentric cam shaft 331d2 can be prevented from being displaced when receiving a load from the radial direction.

  The detection piece 334c can pass through the gap of the third sensor member 325a3 (see FIG. 9). When the detection piece 334c passes through the gap of the third sensor member 325a3, the posture of the eccentric cam member 333 whose relative phase with the phase detection member 334 is unchanged is detected by the rotation projection 334d and the notch 333d engaging with each other. can do.

  16 (a) is a front view of the lever member 340, FIG. 16 (b) is a side view of the lever member 340 as viewed in the direction of the arrow XVIb in FIG. 16 (a), and FIG. It is a top view of the lever member 340 in the arrow XVIb direction view of Fig.16 (a).

  As shown in FIG. 16A, compared to the shaft hole 341b, the shaft hole 341e is a straight line facing the longitudinal direction of the main body member 341 and below the straight line passing through the shaft hole 341b (FIG. 16A ) Located below). Thereby, it is possible to suppress the load generated on the swinging member 360 side from being applied along the longitudinal direction of the lever member 340, and the load can be directed to the rotation direction of the lever member 340.

  As shown in FIG. 16B, the main body member 341 is formed in a U shape in cross section, and a peeling member 350 is disposed on the open side of the U shape. A slight gap is provided between the body member 341 and the raising member 353 or the magnet member 354.

  Thereby, when the peeling member 350 is fixed to the main body member 341, the strength of the main body member 341 is increased by filling the U-shaped open side (downward in FIG. 16B) of the main body member 341 with the peeling member 350. Can be secured.

  Further, when the peeling member 350 starts to be peeled off from the state in which the peeling member 350 is fixed to the main body member 341, or in the direction in which the peeling member 350 comes close to the main body member 341 from the state in which the peeling member 350 is peeled off (see FIG. 23A). The movement resistance when moving to can be increased.

  Accordingly, it is possible to increase the movement resistance when the peeling member 350 moves relative to the main body member 341. For example, the lever member 340 is controlled in the state where the swinging is restricted (see FIG. 22A). When the member 340 receives an overload and the peeling member 350 is pulled off from the main body member 341, the main body member 341 can be prevented from swinging at a high speed due to the momentum of the applied load.

  FIG. 17A is a front view of the operation device 300, and FIG. 17B is a side view of the operation device 300 as viewed in the direction of arrow XVIIb in FIG. Note that FIG. 17 illustrates a state in which the swing operation member 310 is disposed in a downward position (a state in which the player has performed a push-down operation).

  18A is a cross-sectional view of the operation device 300 taken along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 17A, and FIG. 18B is a portion of the operation device 300 taken along the line XVIIIb-XVIIIb in FIG. FIG. 18C is a partial cross-sectional view of the operation device 300 taken along the line XVIIIc-XVIIIc in FIG. FIG. 19 is a partially enlarged view of the swing operation member 310 of FIG. 18 (b) and 18 (c) are slightly larger than FIG. 18 (a), and in FIG. 19, the central axis of the vibration device 366 of the swing operation member 310 is oriented in the vertical direction. The state is illustrated.

  As shown in FIG. 18A, when the lock member 336 is disposed on the fixed side with the swing operation member 310 disposed at the upward position, the eccentric cam member 333 is applied to the lower side surface of the peeling member 350. Since the lock member 336 is in contact with the upper side surface and the peeling member 350 is prevented from swinging in both directions, the swing operation member 310 is fixed at the upward position.

  As in the present embodiment, the lock member 336 is swung around the lock shaft 331d3, and the eccentric cam member 333 is located on the opposite side of the separation member 350 at the portion where the lock member 336 prevents the separation member 350 from swinging. Is arranged, the posture of the lock member 336 in a state where the peeling member 350 is prevented from swinging by the lock member 336 can be adjusted in design.

  In this embodiment, when the distance between the rotation shaft of the lock member 336 and the upper side surface of the peeling member 350 is closest, that is, the cam portion 333c of the eccentric cam member 333 is disposed on the opposite side of the peeling member 350 and the cylindrical portion 333b. The lock member 336 can be brought into contact with the upper surface of the peeling member 350 only in a state in which is in contact with the peeling member 350.

  In other words, the length of the main body 336a of the lock member 336 is formed such that the L-shaped buttocks abut on the upper side surface of the peeling member 350 in a state where the peeling member 350 is in contact with the cylindrical portion 333b. .

  Therefore, in a state where the lock member 336 is in contact with the upper side surface of the peeling member 350 and the swing operation member 310 is fixed in the upward position, the cylindrical portion 333b of the eccentric cam member 333 is always on the lower side of the peeling member 350. It is abutted on the side surface. Therefore, when an overload is applied in a direction in which the swing operation member 310 moves upward from a state in which the swing operation member 310 is fixed at the upward position, the overload is applied to the cam portion 333c of the eccentric cam member 333. It can prevent being applied and can prevent the eccentric cam member 333 from being damaged.

  As shown in FIG. 18B, the gear portion 342b of the gear damper receiving member 342 and the gear damper 338 arranged on the back side of the gear damper receiving member 342 are engaged with each other. As will be described later, the gear damper 338 has a role of generating a viscous resistance against the swinging of the lever member 340 and a role of generating a resistance force that resists the load when the lever member 340 receives a load pushing backward. Have both.

  By providing the gear damper 338, for example, when the main body member 341 of the lever member 340 is pulled off from the peeling member 350, the resistance when the player operates the swing operation member 310 at a high speed is large. On the other hand, the resistance when the speed is low, such as when the lever member 340 is raised by the biasing force of the torsion spring SP1, can be reduced.

  As a result, the biasing force of the torsion spring SP1 can be set smaller and the design flexibility of the torsion spring SP1 can be improved as compared with the case where a large resistance corresponding to the high-speed operation of the player is generated regardless of the swing speed. be able to.

  As shown in FIG. 18C, the sensor detection piece 343b is arranged in the gap of the second sensor member 325a2 and the detection piece of the phase detection member 334 in the state where the swing operation member 310 is arranged in the upward position. 334c is disposed in the gap of the third sensor member 325a3. In other words, the lock member 336 is swung only when the sensor detection piece 343b is disposed in the gap between the second sensor members 325a2 and the detection piece 334c of the phase detection member 334 is disposed in the gap between the third sensor members 325a3. By doing so, the lock member 336 can be brought into contact with the upper side surface of the peeling member 350.

  As will be described later, when the peeling member 350 is peeled from the main body member 341, the sensor detection piece 343b is moved from the gap between the second sensor members 325a2. Therefore, it is detected that the lock member 336 is not swung from the state of FIG. 18A (detected by the sensor member 331f) and that the sensor detection piece 343b is moved from the gap of the second sensor member 325a2. Thus, it can be detected that the peeling member 350 has been peeled off from the main body member 341.

  20 is a cross-sectional view of the swing operation member 310 taken along the line XX-XX in FIG. The illustration of the back side frame member 311 is omitted. As shown in FIG. 20, the back button member 312d is disposed on the back side of the intermediate frame member 312 and is biased in a direction away from the intermediate frame member 312 by the coil spring. In the state where no load is applied, the detection piece 312d1 is separated from the second sensor member 313d. On the other hand, a pressing load (a load directed upward in FIG. 20) is applied to the back button member 312d, and the back button member 312d is moved until the detection piece 312d1 is inserted into the gap of the second sensor member 313d. It can be detected that the back button member 312d is pushed.

  FIGS. 21A and 21B are partial cross-sectional views of the swing operation member 310 and the lever member 340 along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 21A shows a state in which the vibration device 366 is operated from the state of FIGS. 18A and 19 and a load is generated upward. In FIG. 21B, FIG. ) And the state where the lens member 317 is pushed in from the state of FIG.

  As described above, the switch member 315 is locked so as not to be pulled out from the intermediate frame member 312, and the vibration member 314 is interposed between the switch member 315 and the intermediate frame member 312. The vibration member 314 is the vibration coil spring CS1. Thus, it is pressed toward the intermediate frame member 312 (downward in FIG. 21A).

  From this state, when the pressing member 366b is pressed against the vibration member 314 by the electromagnetic force generated when a current flows through a copper wire (not shown) wound around the bobbin member 366a of the vibration device 366, the vibration member 314 is pressed against the switch member 315. Move in the direction of pressing. As a result, the lens member 317 fitted and fixed to the vibration member 314 moves (upward in FIG. 21A). In this state, since the step portion 317a of the lens member 317 is in contact with the switch member 315, it is difficult to push in the lens member 317 (becomes hard and cannot be pushed in).

  On the other hand, when the vibration member 314 is separated from the lens member 317, the player can push in the lens member 317 (pushable state). Therefore, the timing at which the player performs an input operation through the lens member 317 can be specified by driving the vibration member 314.

  In addition, since a pushable state in which the lens member 317 can be pushed in and a non-pushable state in which the lens member 317 is fixed so that it cannot be displaced and cannot be pushed in are configured, the lever member 340 is affected by the operation performed by the player. It can be switched on the pachinko machine 10 (see FIG. 1) side.

  For example, when the player repeatedly pushes the lens member 317 repeatedly (striking), the lever member 340 is caused to react with the eccentric cam member 333 (FIG. 18 (a) when returning from the state where the lens member 317 is pushed. The swing operation member 310 is subjected to a load in a direction close to (see)). Therefore, the eccentric cam member 333 may be damaged.

  On the other hand, when the push-in is disabled, the entire swinging operation member 310 is pushed down by the player's push-in operation, so that the lever member 340 is also separated from the eccentric cam member 333 (see FIG. 18A). Move in the direction. Therefore, even if the player strikes the lens member 317 repeatedly, the situation where the eccentric cam member 333 and the lever member 340 collide with each other when the swinging operation member 310 is returned upward by the biasing force can be suppressed.

  In addition, as a method of constructing the incompressible state, the lens member 317 is moved to the end position by a method of locking the lens member 317 with a hook-like claw or a vibration device 366 such as a voice coil motor that performs a linear reciprocating motion. Examples include a method of overhanging (continuing a load in one direction). According to the method of projecting the lens member 317 to the end position by the vibration device 366 such as a voice coil motor, the lens member 317 is vibrated by the vibration device 366 and the lens member 317 is made incapable of being pushed in. Both effects can occur.

  The direction of movement of the pressing member 366b can be reversed by reversing the direction of the current flowing through the copper wire (not shown) wound around the bobbin member 366a of the vibration device 366. Here, since the vibration member 314 is not attracted by the force of the electromagnetic force, the moving speed may be slow. In this embodiment, the vibration member 314 is pressed against the pressing member 366b by the elastic recovery force of the vibration coil spring CS1. Following this, it moves downward in FIG.

  Thereby, the vibration of the lens member 317 can be speeded up without fastening and fixing the pressing member 366b and the vibration member 314.

  In the present embodiment, it is possible to prevent the elastic recovery force of the vibration coil spring CS1 from acting as a resistance when the lens member 317 is pushed in. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 21B, when the lens member 317 is pushed in, the step 317a formed on the back side of the lens member 317 abuts on the arm 315f of the switch member 315, so that the lens member 317 and the vibration member 314 move integrally with the switch member 315. Therefore, since the contraction degree of the vibration coil spring CS1 does not change, it is possible to prevent the elastic recovery force of the vibration coil spring CS1 from acting as a resistance when the lens member 317 is pushed in.

  After the lens member 317 is pushed in, the switch receiving member 314d (see FIG. 13) that is in contact with the lower side surface of the switch member 315 pushes up the switch member 315 by the elastic recovery force of the pushing coil spring CS2. The lens member 317 returns to the position before being pushed (see FIG. 18A).

  That is, the pushing coil spring CS2 that returns the position of the lens member 317 when the lens member 317 is pushed in and the vibration coil spring CS1 that returns the position of the vibration member 314 can be formed of different members.

  In this embodiment, since the elastic coefficient of the pushing coil spring CS2 is made smaller than that of the vibrating coil spring CS1, the pushing operation of the lens member 317 is performed with a small force while ensuring a high speed for returning the vibrating member 314. be able to. Therefore, the ease of the pushing operation of the lens member 317 can be improved while ensuring the magnitude of vibration that the player feels passively.

  22A and 22B are cross-sectional views of the operation device 300 taken along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 22A and 22B show a state in which the lock member 336 is swung to the fixed side, and in FIG. 22A, the swing operation member 310 is disposed at the upward position. In FIG. 22B, the state is illustrated, and the state where the swing operation member 310 is pushed into the back side (right side in FIG. 22B) from the state of FIG. 22A is illustrated.

  The lever member 340 that supports the swing operation member 310 is biased by the torsion spring SP1 in the direction of lifting the swing operation member 310 about the lever support shaft 331d1 (clockwise in FIG. 22A). Therefore, even if the lock member 336 is swung in the releasing direction (FIG. 22 (a) clockwise) from the state of FIG. 22 (a), the swing operation member 310 can be held in the upward position.

  The swing of the lever member 340 due to the biasing force of the torsion spring SP1 is stopped by the lever member 340 coming into contact with the guide support holes 331e1 and 332e1, the upper cover 322, and the eccentric cam member 333. In this way, by preparing a plurality of locations that are brought into contact when the lever member 340 is stopped, the load applied to the lever member 340 can be dispersed, and damage to the lever member 340 can be suppressed. . Hereinafter, each contact location will be described in detail.

  Since the angle restricting bar member 346 is inserted into the guide support holes 331e1 and 332e1, the swinging of the lever member 340 is stopped by the angle restricting bar member 346 coming into contact with the end portions of the guide support holes 331e1 and 332e1. Can do. As described above with reference to FIG. 10, the guide support holes 331 e 1 and 332 e 1 are disposed with the lever member 340 sandwiched in the swing axis direction, so that when the lever member 340 is stopped, the lever member 340 is centered on the longitudinal direction. It is possible to suppress tilting in the turning direction.

  The connecting portion 344c of the upper cover member 344 can contact the upper cover 322. The connecting portion 344c is formed with a step portion 344c1 that is a portion that contacts the upper cover 322 perpendicularly, and a space is formed between the connecting portion 344c and the lever member 340 (see FIG. 22A). Therefore, even when the upper cover 322 abuts on the stepped portion 344c1, the connecting portion 344c can be deformed toward the space, so that an impact generated between the connecting portion 344c and the upper cover 322 can be reduced. it can.

  Thereby, since it can suppress that an impact is transmitted to the main body member 341, the structure of the main body member 341 can be simplified and the weight reduction of the lever member 340 whole can be achieved. In this case, the elastic coefficient required for the torsion spring SP1 can be suppressed, and accordingly, the driving force required for the first driving device 335 (see FIG. 10) that drives the eccentric cam member 333 can be suppressed.

  The upper cover member 344 has a role of preventing dust and balls (game balls and game media) from entering the inside of the inner case member 330 in addition to the role of reducing the impact. That is, even if the lever member 340 is swung (see FIG. 23B), the space between the upper cover member 344 and the upper cover 322 is always closed, so that the dust is placed inside the inner case member 330. Or balls (game balls, game media) can be prevented from entering.

  Further, the upper cover member 344 can be brought into contact with the notch 331c1 of the inner case member 330 in the swing axis direction (direction perpendicular to FIG. 22A). As a result, the main body member 341 can be prevented from wobbling in the swing axis direction using the upper cover member 344.

  The peeling member 350 of the lever member 340 is in contact with the eccentric cam member 333. The eccentric cam member 333 can be prevented from being damaged by bringing the lever member 340 into contact with the eccentric cam member 333 with the cylindrical portion 333b of the eccentric cam member 333 facing the peeling member 350 side.

  As shown in FIG. 22A, in the operation device 300, a straight line L <b> 1 indicating the central axis in the vibration direction of the vibration device 366 passes through the shaft support bar 363. For this reason, the vibration impact of the vibration device 366 is applied to the shaft support rod 363, but a buffer member 364 (see FIG. 12) is disposed between the shaft support rod 363 and the motor fixing plate 362 (see FIG. 12). Therefore, the shock of vibration can be reduced by the buffer member 364. Thereby, the vibration transmitted to the lever member 340 can be suppressed.

  An angle between the straight line L1 and the straight line L2 along the longitudinal direction of the lever member 340 is an angle θ1. Thereby, the vibration generated by the vibration device 366 can be decomposed into a directional component along the straight line L2 and a directional component along the vertical direction of the straight line L2, and transmitted to the pachinko machine 10 to vibrate the pachinko machine 10. The load to be caused (the load in the direction along the straight line L2) can be suppressed.

  Similarly, the force applied in the pushing direction (parallel to the straight line L1) of the lens member 317 can be decomposed into a direction component along the straight line L2 and a direction component along the vertical direction of the straight line L2. By pushing the lens member 317, the load applied to the lever support shaft 331d1 can be suppressed.

  The vibration device 366 is disposed on the front side (left side in FIG. 22A) of the lever support shaft 331d1, and the reaction that occurs when the vibration device 366 operates causes the swinging member support portion 341d of the main body member 341 to push downward. Directed. Therefore, the main body member 341 can be swung in the direction away from the eccentric cam member 333 by the vibration of the vibration device 366. Thereby, it can suppress that the eccentric cam member 333 receives load by the vibration of the vibration apparatus 366. FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 22B, in the state where the swing operation member 310 is pushed in, the back button member 312d is pressed against the connecting portion 344c. In this case, the direction F1 of the load generated toward the lever member 340 is directed to push down the swinging member support portion 341d of the lever member 340 around the lever support shaft 331d1. Therefore, it is possible to suppress a load on the eccentric cam member 333 from being generated by pushing the swing operation member 310.

  In a state where the swing operation member 310 is pushed in, the straight line L1 and the straight line L2 form an angle θ2. Since the angle θ2 is larger than the angle θ1, the direction component along the straight line L2 of the vibration of the vibration device 366 can be made smaller than that in the state of FIG. Therefore, the vibration transmitted to the pachinko machine 10 can be suppressed by pushing the swing operation member 310.

  In addition, the direction component along the vertical direction of the straight line L2 can be increased. Therefore, the lever member 340 can be easily swung counterclockwise in FIG. 22B by utilizing the reaction of vibration, and the vibration mode felt by the player who pushes the swing operation member 310 is felt. A plurality of types of vibrations can be produced: vibrations in the linear direction along the straight line L1 and vibrations in which the swing operation member 310 rotates about the shaft support bar 363.

  23A is a cross-sectional view of the operation device 300 taken along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 17A, and FIG. 23B is a cross-sectional view of the operation device 300 taken along the line XVIIIc-XVIIIc in FIG. FIG. FIG. 23 shows a state in which the main body member 341 is pulled away from the peeling member 350 and the swinging operation member 310 is pushed down while the peeling member 350 is restricted from swinging by the lock member 336. A cross-sectional view of the swing operation member 310 is omitted.

  In the state shown in FIG. 22, a load of a predetermined amount or more (a load of an adsorption force or more by magnetic force) is applied in the direction of pushing the lens member 317, or a load of a predetermined amount or more (by the magnetic force) in the direction of pushing down the swing operation member 310. The main body member 341 is pulled off from the magnet member 354 and the swing operation member 310 moves to the state shown in FIG. Thereby, it can suppress that a big load is applied between the lock member 336 and the peeling member 350, and the lock member 336 and the peeling member 350 are damaged.

  An eccentric cam member 333 is disposed on the side opposite to the direction in which the lever member 340 moves when the swing operation member 310 is pushed down, and no matter how much the swing operation member 310 is pushed down, Since the load is not transmitted, the durability of the eccentric cam member 333 can be improved.

  As shown in FIG. 23B, it is possible to detect that the peeling member 350 has been peeled off from the main body member 341 by moving the sensor detection piece 343b from the gap of the second sensor member 325a2.

  In this case, the attracting force due to the magnetic force generated between the magnet member 354 and the main body member 341 suddenly disappears, and the swing operation member 310 moves downward vigorously. Therefore, the lever member 340 may swing too much, and there is a possibility that a burden is generated on the guide support holes 331e1 and 332e1. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, when the swing operation member 310 is pushed down, the rear side frame member 311 and the front cover 321 of the swing operation member 310 are disposed to face each other, so that the lever member 340 is brought into contact with the surface. Even when it rotates too much, the load can be reduced by the deformation of the back frame member 311 or the front cover. Thereby, it can suppress that the lever member 340 is damaged.

  23A, the main body member 341 is swung clockwise in FIG. 23A by the urging force of the torsion spring SP1 by releasing the load applied by the player downward from the state shown in FIG. Is again adsorbed to the peeling member 350. Thereby, the attitude | position (arrangement | positioning) of the lever member 340 (and main body member 341) can be stabilized, and it can make it easy for a player to perform the next operation.

  Since the peeling member 350 is pivotally supported by the lever support shaft 331 d 1 that is the swinging shaft of the main body member 341, the weight of the peeling member 350 is not enough for the main body member 341 to swing when the peeling member 350 is peeled from the main body member 341. Does not move in the direction of movement.

  That is, the weight balance of the main body member 341 before and after the lever support shaft 331d1 changes between the state in which the peeling member 350 is attracted to the main body member 341 and the state in which the peeling member 350 is peeled from the main body member 341. That is, when the peeling member 350 is peeled off, the moment in the direction of pushing down the swing operation member 310 applied to the main body member 341 is increased. Thereby, after the peeling member 350 is peeled off, the speed at which the main body member 341 rises can be reduced, so that the load applied to the eccentric cam member 333 when the main body member 341 is attracted to the peeling member 350 is suppressed. Can do.

  Further, the main body member 341 is formed in a U-shaped cross section, and the peeling member 350 moves in a manner of entering the U-shaped closing side from the U-shaped open side of the main body member 341, so the main body member 341 and the peeling member 350 are moved. When the frictional resistance is generated between the main body member 341 and the peeling member 350, the speed at which the main body member 341 adsorbs to the peeling member 350 can be reduced.

  Since the urging force of the torsion spring SP1 is transmitted to the main body member 341 and is transmitted to the peeling member 350, the lock member 336 or the eccentric cam in a state where the peeling member 350 and the main body member 341 are peeled off. It is possible to prevent the biasing force of the torsion spring SP1 from acting on the member 333. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the lock member 336 or the eccentric cam member 333 from being damaged in a state where the peeling member 350 and the main body member 341 are peeled off.

  In the state of FIG. 23A, the peeling member 350 is fixed to the eccentric cam member 333 and the lock member 336. Therefore, when the sensor detection piece 343b enters the gap of the second sensor member 325a2 again, It can be detected that the member 341 and the peeling member 350 are adsorbed.

  24A and 24B are cross-sectional views of the operation device 300 taken along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 24A shows a state in which the lock member 336 is swung from the state of FIG. 22A to the release side (FIG. 24A clockwise), and FIG. The state where the eccentric cam member 333 is rotated about 180 degrees from the state of 24 (a) and the lever member 340 is swung is illustrated. Further, the outer shapes of the lever member 340 and the swing operation member 310 in a state where the swing operation member 310 is pushed down are illustrated by imaginary lines.

  When the detection piece 336e of the lock member 336 enters the gap of the sensor member 331f, it can be detected that the lock member 336 is swung to the release side. After detecting that the lock member 336 is swung to the release side, the eccentric cam member 333 is rotated by rotating the drive gear 335b (see FIG. 10) of the first drive device 335, and the lever member 340 is swung. Can be made. The eccentric cam member 333 may be continuously rotated in one direction, or the rotation direction may be switched halfway.

  While the eccentric cam member 333 is rotating, the lever member 340 is biased in a direction (FIG. 24 (a) clockwise direction) pressed against the eccentric cam member 333 by the torsion spring SP1. Therefore, the lever member 340 swings in conjunction with the rotation of the eccentric cam member 333. Thereby, the player's attention can be easily collected on the swing operation member 310.

  When the vibration device 366 operates in the state shown in FIG. 24A or FIG. 24B, the reaction of the vibration acts in the direction of pushing down the main body member 341 along the straight line L1. Therefore, the lever member 340 swings in the direction away from the eccentric cam member 333 due to the reaction of vibration, and therefore it is possible to suppress the load on the eccentric cam member 333 due to the operation of the vibration device 366.

  Consider a case where the lens member 317 is pushed in. Assuming that the direction of the load applied to the lens member 317 is along the straight line L1 when the lens member 317 is pushed in, the lever member 340 moves downward as the lens member 317 is pushed (FIG. 24 ( There is a possibility of swinging a) or turning the swing operation member 310 (clockwise in FIG. 24A).

  In this embodiment, in any case, a load that swings the lever member 340 in a direction away from the eccentric cam member 333 is applied. Therefore, the load is applied to the eccentric cam member 333 by pushing the lens member 317. Can be suppressed. Thereby, durability of the eccentric cam member 333 can be improved.

  FIGS. 25A and 25B are cross-sectional views of the operation device 300 taken along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 25A shows a state where the eccentric cam member 333 is rotated counterclockwise by a predetermined angle θ3 from the state shown in FIG. 24B, and FIG. 25B shows the state shown in FIG. From this state, a state in which the eccentric cam member 333 is rotated clockwise by a predetermined angle θ3 is shown, and a sectional view of the swing operation member 310 is omitted. Further, in FIGS. 25A and 25B, the outer shapes of the lever member 340 and the swing operation member 310 in a state where the swing operation member 310 is pushed down are illustrated by imaginary lines.

  In the present embodiment, the swinging member 360 is urged forward (counterclockwise in FIG. 25), so that the player can easily hold the swinging operation member 310 and push it down. That is, when a force is applied in the direction M1 (see FIG. 25A) from the state of FIG. 24B to push down the swing operation member 310, the swing operation member 310 is swung (shaft support rod). The swinging operation member 310 can be immediately pressed down without causing the swinging operation to swing around 363).

  Here, if the lever member 340 can be separated from the eccentric cam member 333, the lever member 340 can be urged from a position away from the eccentric cam member 333 and can collide with the eccentric cam member 333 (FIG. 25 (a) and FIG. 25 (b), the swinging operation member 310 can be pushed up from the position of the imaginary line to the position of the solid line), so that the eccentric cam member 333 may be damaged.

  On the other hand, in this embodiment, the eccentric cam member 333 can be prevented from being damaged by making the eccentric cam member 333 hollow. That is, it is possible to suppress the eccentric cam member 333 from being damaged by receiving the load from the lever member 340 due to the elastic deformation of the eccentric cam member 333.

  As described above, the eccentric cam member 333 can swing the lever member 340 by continuously rotating regardless of the rotation direction. Here, characteristics of the rotation direction will be described.

  FIG. 25A shows the phase of the eccentric cam member 333 (hereinafter, this phase is referred to as “retraction phase”) when the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the upward position (the state shown in FIG. 24A). Indicates the rotation angle. That is, in order to rotate from the retracted phase to the phase of the eccentric cam member 333 of FIG. 25A, it is necessary to rotate the eccentric cam member 333 by an angle φ1 by clockwise rotation.

  FIG. 25B shows the rotation angle from the phase (retraction phase) of the eccentric cam member 333 in the state where the swing operation member 310 is disposed at the upward position (the state of FIG. 24A). That is, in order to rotate from the retracted phase to the phase of the eccentric cam member 333 of FIG. 25B, it is necessary to rotate the eccentric cam member 333 by an angle φ2 by counterclockwise rotation. Here, the angle φ1 is smaller than the angle φ2 (φ1 <φ2).

  Assuming that the eccentric cam member 333 rotates at a constant speed, the direction in which the lever member 340 is urged by the torsion spring SP1 and the direction of rotation of the eccentric cam member 333 are greater when the eccentric cam member 333 is rotated clockwise from the retracted phase. Can be shortened compared with the case where the eccentric cam member 333 is rotated counterclockwise (period of angle φ2).

  Further, when the eccentric cam member 333 is rotated clockwise from the retracted position, the lever member 340 is in a state where the rotation direction of the eccentric cam member 333 and the direction in which the lever member 340 is biased by the torsion spring SP1 are opposed to each other. And the eccentric cam member 333 can be brought closer to the lever support shaft 331d1 (the position where the eccentric cam member 333 and the lever member 340 contact in FIG. 25A is the eccentric cam in FIG. 25B). The position can be closer to the lever support shaft 331d1 than the position where the member 333 and the lever member 340 abut). In this case, if the same torque is applied to the lever member 340, the load generated at the position where the lever member 340 and the eccentric cam member 333 come into contact with each other is reduced. Therefore, since the load applied to the eccentric cam member 333 can be reduced, the durability of the eccentric cam member 333 can be improved.

  In addition, in this embodiment, there is a possibility that a large load may be applied to the eccentric cam member 333 when the player lifts the swing operation member 310, so the eccentric cam member 333 is continuously rotated in the same direction. In this case, it is preferable to rotate the eccentric cam member 333 counterclockwise in FIG. In this case, when the rib portion 333e of the eccentric cam member 333 rotates within the angle range of the angle φ2 in FIG. 25B, the load applied from the lever member 340 to the eccentric cam member 333 is suppressed (lever support shaft). 331d1 to the contact position between the lever member 340 and the eccentric cam member becomes longer.) Even if the eccentric cam member 333 moves in the direction close to the lever member 340, the eccentric cam member 333 may be damaged. Can be lowered.

  On the other hand, when the rib portion 333e of the eccentric cam member 333 rotates within the angle range of the angle φ1 in FIG. 25A, the load applied from the lever member 340 to the eccentric cam member 333 increases (from the lever support shaft 331d1). The distance to the contact position between the lever member 340 and the eccentric cam member 333 is shortened). However, since the eccentric cam member 333 is rotated in a direction away from the lever member 340, the lever member 340 and the eccentric cam member 333 are The load generated on the eccentric cam member 333 at the contact position can be suppressed, and the durability of the eccentric cam member 333 can be improved. The eccentric cam member 333 does not need to be rotated in the same direction, and may be reciprocally rotated (reversed) on the angle φ1 side or the angle φ2 side.

  26A and 26B are cross-sectional views of the operation device 300 taken along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 26A shows a state in which the swing operation member 310 is swung in the backward rotation direction (FIG. 26A clockwise) from the state of FIG. 24B, and FIG. 26A illustrates the state where the eccentric cam member 333 is rotated from the state of FIG. 26A to the retracted phase and is swung until the lever member 340 contacts the eccentric cam member 333, and the cross section of the swing operation member 310 is illustrated. Vision is omitted.

  Here, when the operation of pushing down the lever member 340 is obtained exclusively while the lever member 340 is swung by rotating the eccentric cam member 333, the posture of the lever member 340 changes as shown in FIG. Without swinging, the swing operation member 310 does not normally swing in the backward rotation direction (FIG. 26 (a) clockwise). Therefore, by detecting that the back button member 312d has been pushed in, it is possible to detect that the player is performing an erroneous operation (an operation to lift the swing operation member 310).

  In this case, a load is applied to the eccentric cam member 333 through the lever member 340. Since the eccentric cam member 333 may be damaged, the eccentric cam member 333 is damaged by driving the eccentric cam member 333 with the driving force of the drive gear 335b to the retracted phase as shown in FIG. Can be prevented.

  At this time, the eccentric cam member 333 can be rotated more safely by rotating the eccentric cam member 333 clockwise in FIG. That is, the eccentric cam member 333 can be rotated while the contact position between the eccentric cam member 333 and the lever member 340 is separated from the lever support shaft 331d1, and compared with the case where the eccentric cam member 333 is rotated counterclockwise. Thus, the load applied from the lever member 340 to the eccentric cam member 333 can be suppressed.

  27A and 27B are cross-sectional views of the operation device 300 taken along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 27A shows a state in which the swing operation member 310 is pushed down from the state of FIG. 24A, and FIG. 27B shows a swing operation from the state of FIG. The state in which the member 310 is swung clockwise with respect to the shaft support rod 363 in FIG. 27A is shown, and the sectional view of the swing operation member 310 is omitted.

  When a force is applied along the direction D1 shown in FIG. 27A from the state of FIG. 24A, the swing operation member 310 can be pushed down together with the lever member 340. Next, when a force is applied along the direction D2 which is the opposite direction of the direction D1 from the state shown in FIG. 27A, the posture of the lever member 340 remains unchanged, and the swing operation member 310 is pivoted about the pivot bar 363. It can be swung. In this way, a series of operations can be performed by reversing the direction of the force without requiring two types of operations (operations of different modes such as push-in and rotation). Can be easy.

  During this operation, the lever member 340 and the peeling member 350 function as rigid bodies (a state in which the lever member 340 and the peeling member 350 are fixed by the attraction force of the magnet member 354 is maintained). The operability of the swing operation member 310 can be improved.

  As shown in FIG. 27B, when the swing operation member 310 is swung, the back button member 312d is pressed against the connecting portion 344c of the upper cover member 344, so that the lever member 340 is moved in the opposite direction to FIG. A load is applied in the clockwise direction. Accordingly, when the swing operation member 310 is swung, the lever member 340 can be easily fixed at the position of FIG. 27A, and the swing operation member 310 is held in the state of FIG. To make it easy to do.

  Next, an operation device 2300 according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 28 to 38. In the first embodiment, the case where the main body portion 333a and the cam portion 333c of the eccentric cam member 333 are integrally formed has been described. However, in the operation device 2300 in the second embodiment, the eccentric cam member 2333 has a central portion. The main body member 2333a that is pivotally supported and the cam member 2333b that is eccentrically pivotally supported are formed as separate members. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the part same as each embodiment mentioned above, and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  In the second embodiment, an urging force acts in a direction in which the lever member 2340 is raised from the torsion spring SP21, and in the direction in which the swing operation member 310 is rotated backward from the torsion spring SP22 (FIG. 28 (a) clockwise). Energizing force works.

  The torsion spring SP21 is wound around the shaft support portions 331g and 332g (see FIG. 10), one end abuts on the torsion spring locking portions 331h and 332h (see FIG. 9) from the upper side, and the other end to the angle regulating rod member 346. Abutted from below. As a result, the lever member 2340 is biased in a direction in which the swing operation member 310 is raised.

  The torsion spring SP22 is wound around and supported by the buffer member 364 (see FIG. 12), one end is locked to the front curved surface portion 345c, and the other end is locked to the motor fixing plate 2362. In the present embodiment, the torsion spring SP22 urges the swinging member 2360 in the reverse direction (FIG. 28 (a) clockwise) with respect to the main body member 341.

  FIGS. 28A and 28B are cross-sectional views of the operation device 2300 in the second embodiment taken along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 28A and 28B show a state in which the lever member 2340 is restricted from swinging by the lock member 2336, and FIG. 28B shows a state from the state shown in FIG. 28A. The state where the swing operation member 310 is swung backward about the shaft support rod 363 is illustrated. In the present embodiment, the state of FIG. 28A is the initial position, and in FIG. 28A, the posture P21 where the swing operation member 310 is swung by the reaction of the vibration of the vibration device 2366 is indicated by an imaginary line. Is done. FIG. 17A illustrates the operation device 300 according to the first embodiment. Since the appearance is the same as that of the operation device 2300, the operation device 2300 will be described. Hereinafter, the same applies to the present embodiment.

  As shown in FIG. 28 (a), the vibration device 2366 is a device that operates a pair of members close to and away from each other in a linear direction by electromagnetic force, and is fastened and fixed to a motor fixing plate 2362 and around it. A bobbin member 2366a that is a tubular member wound with a copper wire, a cylinder whose outer diameter is smaller than the inner peripheral surface of the bobbin member 2366a, and an inner diameter larger than the outer peripheral surface of the bobbin member 2366a And a pressing member 2366b that is arranged coaxially and connected by a disk-shaped plate. The pressing member 2366b has an inner cylinder made of a magnetic material.

  The bobbin member 2366a and the pressing member 2366b are smaller in length in the radial direction than the bobbin member 366a and the pressing member 366b in the first embodiment, and the central axis C21 of the vibration device 2366 is on the front side from the shaft support bar 363 (FIG. 28). (A) It is spaced apart at the left side.

  Here, when the swing operation member 310 is provided as an operation portion at the tip of the lever member 2340 as in the present embodiment, the player may be required to hold it for production. However, it has been difficult to detect whether or not the player has held the swing operation member 310. For example, it is possible to request that the push button be pressed for a long time, but if you frequently use the operation of the push button, it is necessary to push the push button every time with a force greater than the reaction force of the push button. There is a risk of stress.

  On the other hand, in this embodiment, since the central axis of the vibration device 2366 is spaced apart from the front side of the shaft support rod 363, the swinging member 2360 reciprocally swings due to the reaction of vibration of the vibration device 2366, and the neck The posture of the swing operation member 310 changes in such a manner that it swings back and forth between the posture shown in FIG. 28 (a) and the posture P21. Accordingly, before the player grasps the swing operation member 310, the back button member 312d reciprocates in the pushing direction (direction parallel to the central axis C21), and this is referred to as the second sensor member 313d (FIG. 20). In this case, it is possible to detect that the player is before gripping the swing operation member 310.

  On the other hand, when the player grips the swing operation member 310, the posture of the intermediate frame member 312 is fixed by the gripping force, and the back button member 312d does not reciprocate, so that the signal detected by the second sensor member 313d The pattern changes. By detecting this change, it can be detected that the player is after holding the swing operation member 310.

  When the swinging operation member 310 is gripped, there is no reaction force that is generated, so the force required for the player is small. Further, it is only necessary that the player's hand is placed on the swing operation member 310 (the player can immediately operate the swing operation member 310). For example, the player places his / her own weight on the intermediate frame member 312. It is only necessary to reduce the player's stress.

  Accordingly, it is possible to determine whether or not the player is holding the swing operation member 310 (whether or not the player is in a preparation stage for the operation) without requiring the player to operate the push button, so that the presentation is advanced. The timing can be set to the timing at which the player grips the swing operation member 310, and the player's stress caused by requesting the operation of the push button can be eliminated.

  When the connection between the lever member 2340 and the swinging member 2360 is a pivotal support, the vibration transmitted to the player is increased by matching the center axis of the vibration of the vibration device 2366 with the rotation shaft of the swinging member 2360. be able to. On the other hand, in this case, a large vibration is also transmitted to the pachinko machine 10 (see FIG. 1). For this reason, there has been a problem in that the fastening screw is loosened or the member is deteriorated at an early stage, and the maintenance cycle is shortened.

  On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the vibration of the vibration device 2366 is used to rotate the swing operation member 310 by shifting the rotation axis of the swing member 2360 and the center axis of vibration of the vibration device 2366. The vibration transmitted to the pachinko machine 10 (see FIG. 1) can be reduced (vibration energy is used to rotate the swing operation member 310). In addition, the lens member 317 can be vibrated while the swing operation member 310 is rotated by the vibration of the vibration device 2366, so that the effect can be improved.

  The rod-like member 2331d includes a lock releasing shaft 2331d5 (see FIG. 28A) extending in parallel with the eccentric cam shaft 331d2.

  FIG. 29A and FIG. 29B are cross-sectional views of the operation device 2300 along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. FIG. 29A illustrates a state in which the swing operation member 310 is pushed down and disposed in the downward position with the lock member 2336 disposed on the release side. FIG. 29B illustrates a state in which the swing operation member 310 has rotated from the state illustrated in FIG. 29A to the rotation end in the forward rotation direction (counterclockwise direction in FIG. 29A).

  Since the swing operation member 310 is urged in the backward rotation direction (FIG. 29 (a) clockwise) by the torsion spring SP22, the swing operation member 310 is placed until the lever member 2340 is arranged at the lower end of the swing range. Is kept pressed against the upper cover member 344.

  From the state where the lever member 2340 is pushed down to the lower end of the swing range (see FIG. 29A), when a load is applied to the swing operation member 310 in a direction to further push down the swing operation member 310, the swing operation member 310 It rotates in the forward direction (FIG. 29 (a) counterclockwise direction). Thus, the player can recognize the lower end of the push-down operation of the swing operation member 310, the end of the operation range of the swing operation member 310 is not known, and the player does not intend to overload the swing operation member 310. It is possible to prevent a load from being applied.

  In the present embodiment, the eccentric cam member 2333 that transmits the driving force to the lever member 2340 and the lock release cam member 2339 that swings the lock member 2336 toward the release side (see FIG. 29A) are both driven. It is rotated by the gear 335b. As a result, the second drive device 337 (see FIG. 10) can be dispensed with, and the product cost can be reduced. Hereinafter, the eccentric cam member 2333, the lock release cam member 2339, and the lock member 2336 will be described.

  30 (a) is a front view of the cam member 2333b of the eccentric cam member 2333, and FIG. 30 (b) is a side view of the cam member 2333b in the direction of arrow XXXb in FIG. 30 (a). FIG. 30C is a front view of the main body member 2333a of the eccentric cam member 2333, and FIG. 30D is a side view of the main body member 2333a as viewed in the direction of the arrow XXXd in FIG. In addition, in FIG.30 (c) and FIG.30 (d), the main body member 2333a is partially sectional view.

  As shown in FIGS. 30A and 30B, the cam member 2333b includes a cylindrical portion 2333b1 pivotally supported by the eccentric cam shaft 331d2 (see FIG. 10), and a circle inscribed in the cylindrical portion 2333b1. A cam portion 2333b2 that extends in the axial direction along the tube and is slightly shorter than the cylindrical portion 2333b1 and is hollow inside, and a pair of cutouts that are cut out along the axial direction at the tip of the cylindrical portion 2333b1 A notch 2333b3, a plate-like rib portion 2333b4 that connects the tubular portion 2333b1 and the cam portion 2333b2 in a direction passing through both axes, and a protruding projection parallel to the axial center of the tubular portion 2333b1 from the rib portion 2333b4. And a projecting portion 2333b5.

  The protruding portion 2333b5 is a protrusion that is disposed at a position spaced apart from the cylindrical portion 2333b1 by the length of the radius R21 and is inserted into the annular recess 2333a3 of the main body member 2333a, and is formed of a magnetic material. The rib portion 2333b4 is bonded with an adhesive or the like. The protruding portion 2333b5 has a curved surface shape in which side surfaces (upper and lower side surfaces in FIG. 30 (a)) arranged in a manner intersecting the radial direction of the cylindrical portion 2333b1 are in a circular shape centering on the cylindrical portion 2333b1. Formed with.

  The cylindrical portion 2333b1 corresponds to the cylindrical portion 333b, the cam portion 2333b2 corresponds to the cam portion 333c, the notch 2333b3 corresponds to the notch 333d, and the rib portion 2333b4 corresponds to the rib portion 333e. Since the technical idea is common, the description is omitted here.

  As shown in FIGS. 30C and 30D, the main body member 2333a is provided with a shaft hole 2333a2 having a circular cross section that is pivotally supported by the eccentric cam shaft 331d2 (see FIG. 10) at the center. A disc-shaped disc portion 2333a1 in which gear teeth meshed with the drive gear 335b (see FIG. 10) are formed on the outer peripheral surface, and along the axial direction of the shaft hole 2333a2 from the front side of the disc portion 2333a1. An annular recess 2333a3 that is recessed in an annular shape and a fixed magnet portion 2333a4 in which a magnetic material is disposed in an annular shape along the outer peripheral surface of the annular recess 2333a3.

  In the annular recess 2333a3, the distance from the center of the shaft hole 2333a2 to the inner peripheral surface of the annular recess 2333a3 is the length of the radius R22, and the radial width is slightly larger than the thickness of the protruding portion 2333b5. In the present embodiment, the radius R22 is equal in length to the deformation R21 (radius R21 = radius R22). In addition, the concave depth of the annular concave portion 2333a3 is made longer than the convex length of the convex portion 2333b5.

  Here, since the fixed magnet portion 2333a4 is disposed on the outer peripheral side of the annular recess 2333a3, when the projecting portion 2333b5 is disposed above the cylindrical portion 2333b1, the cam member 2333b is moved from the lever member 2340. When the overload is received, the cam member 2333b receives the load in a direction in which the protruding portion 2333b5 is released from the fixed magnet portion 2333a4. Thereby, it can prevent that the convex part 2333b5 is pressed against the fixed magnet part 2333a4, and can suppress that it deteriorates by rubbing magnets.

  FIG. 31 is an assembled view of the body member 2333a and the cam member 2333b of the eccentric cam member 2333, FIG. 31 (a) is a front view of the eccentric cam member 2333, and FIG. FIG. 31A is a side view of the eccentric cam member 2333 as viewed in the direction of XXXIb, and FIG. 31C is a front view of the eccentric cam member 2333. FIG. 31C illustrates a state in which the main body member 2333a and the cam member 2333b are relatively rotated from the state illustrated in FIG. In D12 (b), the main body member 2333a and the cam member 2333b are partially viewed in cross section.

  As shown in FIGS. 31A and 31B, in the state where the main body member 2333a and the cam member 2333b of the eccentric cam member 2333 are pivotally supported by the eccentric cam shaft 331d2, the protruding portion 2333b5 is circular. Magnetic forces in the direction of being attracted to each other between the convex portion 2333b5 and the fixed magnet portion 2333a4 are inserted into the annular concave portion 2333a3. Therefore, the main body member 2333a and the cam member 2333b can rotate together by the driving force transmitted from the driving gear 335b (see FIG. 10).

  At this time, since the shape of the projecting portion 2333b5 is formed by a curved surface along a circle centering on the cylindrical portion 2333b1, and the area contacting the side surface of the annular recess 2333a3 can be increased, the main body member 2333a and the cam The member 2333b can be firmly fixed.

  On the other hand, since the main body member 2333a and the cam member 2333b are merely attracted and fixed by magnetic force, when the cam member 2333b receives a load with a force greater than the attraction force, the cam member 2333b slides against the main body member 2333a. Can be made. That is, as shown in FIG. 31A, the main body member 2333a is moved from a state in which the reference line O representing the phase of the main body member 2333a and the straight line Q21 representing the phase of the rib portion 2333b4 of the cam member 2333b coincide with each other. By fixing and applying a load in the rotational direction to the cam member 2333b, the reference line O and the straight line Q21 can be shifted to a state shifted as shown in FIG. 31 (c).

  32 (a) is a front view of the unlocking cam member 2339, and FIG. 32 (b) is a bottom view of the unlocking cam member 2339 as viewed in the XXXIIb direction of FIG. 32 (a). ) Is a side view of the unlocking cam member 2339 as viewed in the XXXIIc direction of FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 32, the unlocking cam member 2339 is formed in the same size as the main body member 2333a of the eccentric cam member 2333, and has a main body in which gear teeth that mesh with the drive gear 335b are formed on the outer peripheral surface. A portion 2339a, a shaft hole 2339b that is drilled in the center of the main body 2339a and through which the unlocking shaft 2331d5 is inserted, and extends radially outward along the front side surface of the main body 2339a. And a release portion 2339c formed with a length capable of coming into contact with the engaging portion 2666d of the lock member 2336, and a detection piece extending radially outward at a position of 90 degrees in the circumferential direction with respect to the release portion 2339c. 2339d.

  The detection piece 2339d passes through a gap between detection sensors (not shown). Thereby, the phase of the unlocking cam member 2339 can be detected.

  FIG. 33A is a front view of the lock member 2336, and FIG. 33B is a side view of the lock member 2336 as viewed in the XXXIIIb direction of FIG.

  As shown in FIGS. 33A and 33B, the lock member 2336 has a shape in which the gear portion 336d (see FIG. 10) is omitted. The lock member 2336 is a member that prevents the lever member 2340 from swinging, and has a plate-shaped main body portion 2336a that is formed in a substantially L-shaped bowl shape on the distal end side, and is drilled on the proximal end side of the main body portion 2336a. And a shaft support hole 2336b through which the lock shaft 331d3 (see FIG. 10) is inserted, a guide hole 2336c formed along an arc centered on the shaft support hole 2336b, and a lock release cam member of the main body 2336a And a locking portion 2336d that protrudes from the side of the side facing 2339 (the left side in FIG. 33B) above the shaft support hole 2336b (the tip of the L-shaped bowl-shaped portion).

  The main body 2336a has a large force for rotating the lock member 2336 when the side surface of the tip portion formed in an L-shaped bowl shape (the side surface contacting from the lower side of the lever member 2340) contacts the lever member 2340. It is considered as an embodiment.

  The guide hole 2336c is a long hole through which the auxiliary shaft 331d4 (see FIG. 10) is inserted, and the swing end of the lock member 2336 can be defined by the length of the guide hole 2336c.

  The locking portion 2336c is a portion that is pushed from the release portion 2339c of the lock release cam member 2339 (see FIG. 32). Further, a torsion spring (not shown) is locked to the locking portion 2336c, and the lock member 2336 receives a biasing force from the beginning toward the fixed side (see FIG. 28A).

  34 and 35 are front views of the lever member 2340, the eccentric cam member 2333, the lock member 2336, and the lock release cam member 2339 illustrating in time series that the lever member 2340 swings as the drive gear 335b rotates. It is.

  34A shows a state in which the lever member 2340 is restricted from swinging by the lock member 2336, and in FIG. 34B, the lock release cam member 2339 is moved from the state shown in FIG. 34A. FIG. 34C shows a state in which the lock member 2336 is rotated until it comes into contact with the lock member 2336. FIG. 34C shows a state in which the lock release cam member 2339 swings the lock member 2336 to the release side from the state shown in FIG. In FIG. 34 (d), a state in which the lock release cam member 2339 is rotated from the state shown in FIG. 34 (c) and the lock member 2336 is returned to the fixed position is shown.

  FIG. 35A shows a state in which the cam member 2333b of the eccentric cam member 2333 is in contact with the lever member 2340 on the side surface opposite to the cylindrical portion 2333b1 (side disposed at an angle of 180 degrees). 35 (b) shows a state in which the eccentric cam member 2333 is rotated from the state of FIG. 35 (a) and the lever member 2340 is in contact with the lock member 2336 from above, and FIG. 35 (c) shows the state shown in FIG. The state where the eccentric cam member 2333 is rotated from the state of (b) and the lever member 2340 is restricted from swinging by the lock member 2336 is illustrated.

  As shown in FIG. 34A, when the unlocking cam member 2339 needs to rotate by an angle θ21 until it comes into contact with the locking portion of the lock member 2336, the unlocking cam member 2339 has an angle θ21. Since the lever member 2340 is prevented from swinging until the state shown in FIG. 34 (b) is rotated, the cam member 2333b of the eccentric cam member 2333 cannot rotate. Therefore, the main body member 2333a and the cam member 2333b, which rotate in synchronization with the lock release cam member 2339, rotate relative to each other by an angle θ21 from the state shown in FIG. 34 (a) (see FIG. 34 (b)).

  Thus, since the cam member 2333b can be rotated relative to the main body member 2333a, even when the eccentric cam member 2333 and the unlocking cam member 2339 are assembled out of phase, the rotation of the eccentric cam member 2333 is the lever member. It is possible to prevent the drive motor 335a (see FIG. 10) from being damaged by being dammed by 2340.

  After the lock release cam member 2339 rotates by the angle θ21, the lock release cam member 2339 starts moving the lock member 2336 to the release side, so that the regulation of the swing of the lever member 2340 is released. The lever member 2340 is swung by the rotation. In this case, the main body member 2333a and the cam member 2333b of the eccentric cam member 2333 are attracted by magnetic force and rotate integrally.

  When the release portion 2339c of the lock release cam member 2339 comes out above the lock member 2336 and the lock member 2336 returns to the fixed side (see FIG. 34D), the rear end portion of the lever member 2340 regardless of the timing thereafter. (FIG. 34 (a) right end portion) pushes the curved surface portion of the hook-shaped portion of the main body portion 2336a of the lock member 2336, thereby pushing the lock member 2336 to the release side and further lowering the rear end portion of the lever member 2340. Naturally swinging is regulated.

  Therefore, for example, when the player operates in the direction of lifting the swing operation member 310 and the rear end portion of the lever member 2340 is lowered, the lever member 2340 is positioned regardless of the posture of the lever member 2340 (FIG. 34 (d), The swing of the lever member 2340 is controlled to the lower side of the hook-shaped portion of the lock member 2336 (regardless of the posture of FIG. 35A or FIG. 35B).

  Here, as a countermeasure against a load applied to the eccentric cam member 2333 when the player lifts and swings the swing operation member 310 (see FIG. 28), the eccentric cam member 2333 is formed of an elastic material such as rubber, and the member is elastic. A method of releasing the load by deforming can be considered. However, in this case, there is a problem that the member is sagged or the shape is changed.

  On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the cam member 2333b can slide with respect to the main body member 2333a. Therefore, the load applied to the eccentric cam member 2333 when the player lifts the swing operation member 310 (see FIG. 28). Therefore, the cam member 2333b can be prevented from being damaged.

  That is, regardless of the posture of the lever member 2340 (regardless of the posture of the lever member 2340 shown in FIG. 34D, FIG. 35A, or FIG. 35B), the swing operation member 310 (FIG. 28)), the lever member 2340 pushes the cam member 2333b (slids with respect to the main body member 2333a), and the lever member 2340 swings to the lower side of the hook-shaped portion of the lock member 2336. Oscillation is regulated by being moved.

  On the other hand, in this case, the cam member 2333b has the same posture (see FIG. 35C), but the phase of the unlocking cam member 2339 is different (FIGS. 34D and 35A). Or refer to FIG. Therefore, the rotation angle of the drive gear 335b required until the lock member 2336 is moved to the release side again by the lock release cam member 2339 is different, and it becomes difficult to determine the drive start timing of the lever member 2340. was there.

  On the other hand, in this embodiment, the phase of the eccentric cam member 2333 and the lock release cam member 2339 can be matched by detecting the phase of the lock release cam member 2339 with a detection sensor (not shown). That is, since the arrangement of the cam member 2333b when the lever member 2340 is restricted from swinging by the lock member 2336 is fixed to the arrangement shown in FIG. 35 (c), the drive gear 335b is rotated and locked in this state. By rotating the release cam member 2339 to a predetermined phase (see FIG. 34B), the phase of the eccentric cam member 2333 and the phase of the lock release cam member 2339 can be matched.

  Accordingly, the phase of the eccentric cam member 2333 and the phase of the unlocking cam member 2339 can be matched regardless of the timing at which the player lifts the swing operation member 310 (see FIG. 28). The drive start timing can be easily matched.

  Next, the main body member 2361 of the swinging member 2360 will be described with reference to FIG. 36 (a) to 36 (c) are front views of the main body member 2361 of the swinging member 2360 shown in the axial view of the shaft support bar 363. FIG. 36A shows a state in which the main body member 2361 is oscillated and arranged at the end on the reverse side (see FIG. 28A), and FIG. 36B shows the state on the end on the forward side. A state (see FIG. 28B) in which the main body member 2361 is arranged in a swinging manner is illustrated. In FIG. 36C, the main body member 2361 is along the longitudinal direction of the long hole 2361f from the state shown in FIG. The state of being slid and moved is shown.

  As shown in FIG. 36, the body member 2361 is a member that is coaxially supported by the shaft support bar 363 and coaxial with the shaft hole 341e (see FIG. 12), and the shape of the side wall portion 361a (see FIG. 12) is slightly deformed. The deformed side wall portion 2361a is formed, the long hole 2361f is formed along the extending direction of the fixed plate portion 361e from the shaft hole 361c, and the fixed plate portion 361e is extended from the upper end portion of the angle regulating hole 361d. And a long hole 2361g formed along the direction.

  As a result, the shaft support bar 363 and the regulation bar 365 are arranged so as not to enter the long holes 2361f and 2361g unless at least the main body member 2361 is swingably arranged at the terminal end on the forward rotation side. Therefore, the main body member 2361 performs only a swinging motion around the shaft support rod 363.

  Next, the motor fixing plate 2362 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 37 (a) is a top view of the motor fixing plate 2362, FIG. 37 (b) is a side view of the motor fixing plate 2362 in the XXXVIIb direction view of FIG. 37 (a), and FIG. FIG. 38 is a side view of the motor fixing plate 2362 showing a state in which the U-shaped member 2362d is slid from the state shown in FIG. 37 (b). In order to facilitate understanding, in FIG. 37 (b) and FIG. 37 (c), the outer shape of the main body member 2361 is illustrated by an imaginary line.

  As shown in FIG. 37, the motor fixing plate 2362 includes a main body portion 2362a and a side wall portion 2362b formed by extending the main body portion 362a and the side wall portion 362b rearward (upward in FIG. 37), and the bottom of the main body portion 2362a. A pair of rod-like portions 2362c extending downward from the side, a U-shaped member 2362d formed on the rod-like portion 2362c so as to be slidable and formed with a crotch width larger than the width of the long holes 2361f and 2361g, Is mainly provided.

  The side wall portion 2362b includes a long hole 2362b1 formed along the extending direction of the main body portion 2362a.

  The U-shaped member 2362d is arranged such that the direction of the U-shaped crotch width is along the width direction of the long holes 2361f and 2361g, and is biased in a direction away from the main body 2362a by an elastic spring or the like (not shown). Is done. That is, when a load is not applied to the U-shaped member 2362d, the U-shaped member 2362d is disposed at the position shown in FIG. 37B, and the U-shaped leg portion overlaps the elongated holes 2361f and 2361g. The shaft support bar 363 and the regulation bar 365 can be prevented from moving along the long holes 2361f and 2361g.

  On the other hand, when a load is applied to the U-shaped member 2362d in a direction approaching the main body 2362a, the U-shaped member 2362d is disposed at the position shown in FIG. Since it overlaps with the long holes 2361f and 2361g, the shaft support bar 363 and the regulating bar 365 can be moved along the long holes 2361f and 2361g.

  That is, it is possible to switch whether or not the main body member 2361 can be moved along the long holes 2361f and 2361g by switching whether or not a load is applied to the U-shaped member 2362d.

  Here, a member for sliding the U-shaped member 2362d will be described. In the present embodiment, the plate-like first release member 2370 that is slidably moved along the longitudinal direction inside the main body member 341 of the lever member 2340 and the rear side frame member 311 of the swing operation member 310 are provided. It mainly includes a plate-like second release member 2380 that is disposed so as to be slidable in a direction perpendicular to the extending direction of the main body portion 2362a through the disposed through hole.

  The first release member 2370 is slidably disposed on the U-shaped member 2362d on the rear side (right side in FIG. 28A), and the second release member 2380 is disposed on the U side on the front side (left side in FIG. 28A). The character-shaped member 2362d is arranged to be slidable.

  Further, the first release member 2370 has the main body member 351 abuts against the end of the first release member 2370 and pushes the U-shaped member 2362d when the peeling member 350 is pulled off from the lever member 2340. Shaped. The second release member 2380 is configured such that the swing operation member 310 is disposed at the downward position, and the swing member 2360 is rotated and disposed at the swing end in the forward rotation direction, so that the front cover 321 is disposed on the second release member 2380. The U-shaped member 2362d is pushed and abutted on the end portion.

  For example, in the state shown in FIG. 29B, the U-shaped member 2362d on the front side (left side in FIG. 29A) is slid, but the U-shaped member on the rear side (right side in FIG. 29A). Since 2362d is not slid, the swing operation member 310 cannot be slid downward.

  38A and 38B are cross-sectional views of the operation device 2300 taken along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. FIG. 38A illustrates a state in which the swing operation member 310 is pushed down from the state illustrated in FIG. FIG. 38B illustrates a state in which the swing operation member 310 is slid along the long holes 2361f and 2361g from the state illustrated in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 38A, the peeling member 350 is pulled off from the main body member 341, and the swinging operation member 310 is disposed at the downward position and is rotated and disposed at the end of swinging in the forward rotation direction. Thus, the pair of U-shaped members 2362d are slid and the swing operation member 310 can be slid along the long holes 2361f and 2361g.

  At this time, the main body member 341 of the lever member 2340 is already overloaded by the peeling member 350 being peeled off, and the swinging operation member 310 swings to the lower end of the swing range. In addition, a downward force is applied to the swing operation member 310. Therefore, the player does not accidentally overload when operating the swing operation member 310, and may determine that the swing operation member 310 is about to be destroyed regardless of the operation. it can.

  Therefore, for example, a detection sensor (not shown) detects that the state shown in FIG. 38B has been reached, and an alarm is issued, thereby preventing the player from overloading the swing operation member 310. Thus, the operation device 2300 can be prevented from being destroyed.

  In addition, when an overload is not applied to the swing operation member 310, the swing operation member 310 can be prevented from sliding, so that the operation feeling of the swing operation member 310 is provided by the long holes 2361f and 2361g. It is possible to prevent the change.

  Next, an operation device 3300 according to the third embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 39 to 42. In the first embodiment, the case where the driving force for driving the lever member 340 is transmitted to the lever member 340 behind the lever support shaft 331d1 has been described. However, the operation device 3300 in the third embodiment drives the lever member 3340. The driving force to be transmitted is transmitted in front of the lever support shaft 331d1. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the part same as each embodiment mentioned above, and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  In the third embodiment, a biasing force acts in a direction in which the lever member 3340 is tilted forward from the torsion spring SP31, and a biasing force acts in a direction in which the swing operation member 310 is tilted backward from the torsion spring SP32.

  The torsion spring SP31 is wound around the shaft support portions 331g and 332g (see FIG. 10), one end abuts on the torsion spring locking portions 331h and 332h (see FIG. 10) from the upper side, and the other end to the angle regulating rod member 346. It abuts from above. As a result, the lever member 340 is biased in the direction in which the swing operation member 310 is tilted forward.

  The torsion spring SP32 is wound around and supported by the buffer member 364, and one end is locked to the front curved surface portion 345c, and the other end is locked to the motor fixing plate 362. In the present embodiment, the torsion spring SP32 urges the swinging member 360 in the direction in which it rises with respect to the main body member 341.

  FIGS. 39A and 39B are cross-sectional views of the operation device 3300 in the third embodiment taken along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 39 (a) and 39 (b) show a state in which the lever member 3340 is restricted from swinging by the lock member 336, and FIG. 39 (b) shows the neck from the state shown in FIG. 39 (a). The state where the swing operation member 310 is swung forward about the shaft support rod 363 is illustrated. In the present embodiment, the state shown in FIG. In FIG. 17A, the operation device 300 is illustrated, but since the appearance is the same, the operation device 3300 is regarded as being described. Hereinafter, the same applies to the present embodiment.

  As shown in FIG. 39, the operation device 3300 in this embodiment does not include the eccentric cam member 333, and the lever member 3340 is driven by a solenoid mechanism described later. Hereinafter, the solenoid mechanism will be described.

  The solenoid mechanism includes a magnetic member 3339 formed of a magnetic material disposed inside the inner cover member 3330, and a cylindrical rod-shaped metal member 3345f that is fixed to the lever member 3340 and is made of a cylinder. .

  The lower cover member 3345 of the lever member 3340 includes a pair of transmission portions 3345e that extend rearward and downward from the left and right ends of the back guide portion 345a and are molded integrally with the lower cover member 3345, and the transmission portion 3345e A metal rod-shaped member 3345f is fixed to the tip in a posture parallel to the lever support shaft 331d1, and a current is conducted to the rod-shaped member 3345f.

  The magnetic material 3339 is a U-shaped magnet extending from the front side wall of the inner cover member 3330 to the back side (right side in FIG. 39 (a)) in a pair. In the present embodiment, the upper arm portion 3339n disposed on the upper side is an N pole, and the lower arm portion 3339s disposed on the lower side is an S pole. The lower side surface of the upper arm portion 3339n and the upper side surface of the lower arm portion 3339s are arranged with a slight gap in the vertical direction from the trajectory in which the rod-shaped member 3345f moves as the lever member 3340 swings. Therefore, when the lever member 3340 is swung, it is possible to prevent the rod-shaped member 3345f from colliding with the magnetic member 3339.

  Here, for example, when a current is passed through the bar-shaped member 3345f toward the front side of FIG. 39A, an electromagnetic force that moves the bar-shaped member 3345f rearward (to the right of FIG. 39A) is generated. When a current is passed in the opposite direction, an electromagnetic force that moves the rod-shaped member 3345f forward (leftward in FIG. 39A) is generated. The lever member 3340 can be swung by these electromagnetic forces.

  FIG. 40A is a cross-sectional view of the operation device 3300 along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 40A shows a state in which the lock member 336 is disposed on the release side, the lever member 3340 is swung by the urging force, and the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the downward position.

  In the present embodiment, since the lever member 3340 is biased in the forward tilting direction by the torsion spring SP1, the lever member 3340 can start to swing by disposing the lock member 336 on the release side.

  When the lever member 3340 is biased in the forward tilt direction as in the present embodiment, when the player pushes down the swing operation member 310, the lever member 3340 drives the lever member 3340 to the side closer to it. There is a problem that it is necessary to dispose the cam member, and the eccentric cam member is easily damaged by the player's operation.

  On the other hand, in this embodiment, the eccentric cam member is deleted, and the driving force is transmitted to the lever member 3340 by a solenoid mechanism. Since the magnetic member 3339 constituting the solenoid mechanism is disposed in a manner that leaves a slight gap from the movement locus of the rod member 3345f constituting the solenoid mechanism, it is possible to prevent the rod-like member 3345f and the magnetic member 3339 from colliding with each other. Then, when the player pushes down the swing operation member 310, the solenoid mechanism can be prevented from being damaged.

  FIG. 40B is a cross-sectional view of the operation device 3300 taken along line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. FIG. 40B shows a state in which the swing operation member 310 is pushed down from the state shown in FIG. 39B and the main body member 341 and the peeling member 350 are peeled off.

  Since the biasing force of the torsion spring SP1 is directed in the direction in which the lever member 3340 is tilted forward (counterclockwise direction in FIG. 40B), even if the player releases the hand from the state of FIG. The swing operation member 310 does not move up immediately and is maintained on the spot.

  Here, assuming that the direction of urging the lever member 340 is a rising direction, the lever member 340 is peeled off from the peeling member 350 and the lock member 336 is damaged when the player overloads the swing operation member 310. Even if the player can release the swinging operation member 310 as soon as the player releases his / her hand, the player does not realize that the player is overloading, and the swinging operation member 310 is repeatedly overloaded. There was a problem that there was a risk of applying.

  On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the urging direction of the lever member 3340 is directed in the direction in which the lever member 3340 is tilted forward (counterclockwise direction in FIG. 40B), so that the swing operation member 310 is directed downward. Can continue to be placed in position. Thereby, the situation where a player repeatedly applies an overload to the swing operation member 310 can be avoided.

  In the present embodiment, the rod-shaped member 3345f that receives the electromagnetic force that drives the lever member 3340 operates integrally with the main body member 341. In other words, in a state where the main body member 341 is separated from the peeling member 350, the main body member 341 can be swung by the bar-shaped member 3345f receiving electromagnetic force.

  Here, when a driving force is transmitted to the lever member 340 (see FIG. 10) by the eccentric cam member 333 (see FIG. 10), if the eccentric cam member 333 is disposed below the peeling member 350, the lock member 336 causes the lever member to move. When the swinging of 340 is restricted, the rotation of the eccentric cam member 333 is also restricted simultaneously (see FIG. 18A). For this reason, there is a problem in that if the eccentric cam member 333 operates when the swing of the lever member 340 is restricted by the lock member 336, a load is applied to the lock member 336 and the lock member 336 may be damaged.

  On the other hand, in this embodiment, when the lever member 3340 is restricted from swinging by the lock member 336, the rod-shaped member 3345f is moved by receiving electromagnetic force, so that the main body member 341 can swing. On the other hand, the driving force is not transmitted to the peeling member 350.

  Therefore, even if a current flows through the rod-shaped member 3345f when the rocking of the lever member 3340 is restricted by the lock member 336, the electromagnetic force generated at that time is used for the rocking of the main body member 341, and the rocking of the peeling member 350 Since it is not used for movement, it is possible to prevent the lock member 336 from being damaged.

  41 (a) and 41 (b) are cross-sectional views of the operation device 3300 along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 17 (a). 41A shows a state in which the lever member 3340 is swung in the direction in which it rises from the state shown in FIG. 40B, and FIG. 41B shows the state shown in FIG. From this, a state in which the lever member 3340 is swung in the rising direction is shown.

  As shown in FIGS. 41A and 41B, the main body member 341 of the lever member 3340 can be swung by the rod-shaped member 3345f being moved by receiving electromagnetic force. Here, when the eccentric cam member 333 (see FIG. 10) is disposed below the peeling member 350 and the lever member 3340 is driven by rotating the eccentric cam member 333, the lever member 340 is moved from the peeling member 350. The main body member 341 cannot be driven in a state where the main body member 341 is peeled off (see FIG. 23B).

  In contrast, in the present embodiment, the driving force is not transmitted to the main body member 341 via the peeling member 350, but the electromagnetic force received by the rod-shaped member 3345f is transmitted to the main body member 341 via the transmission portion 3345e. The main body member 341 is driven. Therefore, even when the position of the peeling member 350 is fixed, the main body member 341 can be swung.

  A current is passed through the rod-like member 3345f from the state shown in FIG. 40B toward the back side of FIG. In the state shown in FIG. 41 (a), the current flows from the state shown in FIG. 41 (a) to the rod-like member 3345f toward the back side of FIG. 41 (a) until the transmitting portion 3345e changes its posture by an angle α32. The main body member 341 can be in the state shown in FIG.

  By reversing the direction of the current flowing through the rod-shaped member 3345f, the posture of the main body member 341 can be repeatedly changed between the state shown in FIG. 41A and the state shown in FIG. As a result, it is possible to perform a rolling operation that causes the player to pay attention to the operation device 3300.

  In addition, even in a state where the peeling member 350 is attracted and fixed to the main body member 341 (see FIG. 40A), the direction of the current flowing through the rod-shaped member 3345f is reversed so that the player can pay attention to the operation device 3300. The action can be performed. At this time, the path along which the rod-shaped member 3345f moves is the same as the path in which the peeling member 350 is peeled off from the main body member 341. Therefore, the single magnetic member 3339 is used to pull the peeling member 350 from the main body member 341. This can correspond to the case where the peeling member 350 is adsorbed to the main body member 341.

  The weight balance in the longitudinal direction of the main unit member 341 changes between the state in which the peeling member 350 is adsorbed on the main body member 341 and the state in which the peeling member 350 is peeled off from the main body member 341. Even if the current is supplied, the speed of the turning operation can be varied. Thereby, the production effect can be improved.

  42A and 42B are cross-sectional views of the operation device 3300 taken along line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 42 (a) and 42 (b), for easy understanding, the swing operation member 310 is shown in a side view without a cross-sectional view, and a player's hand is shown in an imaginary line. .

  FIG. 42A illustrates a state in which the swing operation member 310 is disposed in a downward position and the player's hand is covered from the back side of the swing operation member 310 (right side in FIG. 42A). From this state, when a current flows through the rod-shaped member 3345f toward the back of FIG. 42A, the rod-shaped member 3345f receives an electromagnetic force and swings in a direction in which the lever member 3340 rises. By swinging the lever member 3340, the swing operation member 310 is caught by the player's hand, and the swing operation member 310 swings in the forward rotation direction (counterclockwise in FIG. 42A). Thereby, the state of the back button member 312d changes, and it can be determined by the second sensor member 313d (see FIG. 20) whether or not there is an input operation from the player.

  In this case, the player can perform the input operation only by placing his / her hand on the swing operation member 310, and the input operation can be facilitated. In addition, the state of the back button member 312d changes depending on the mode (timing and strength) of flowing a current through the rod-shaped member 3345f (the swing operation member 310 on which the player is covering swings in the forward direction). Can be controlled. Therefore, the input of the back button 312d is controlled on the control side by controlling the direction and strength of the current flowing through the rod-shaped member 3345f by placing the hand on the swing operation member 310 without requiring the player to perform an input operation. The timing of the operation can be determined. Thereby, for example, when performing an effect that requires input in a timely manner, the burden on the player can be reduced.

  Further, for example, if the player places his / her hand on the lens member 317 without placing his / her hand on the back side of the swing operation member 310, the lever member 3340 is raised from the state shown in FIG. Even if it swings, the swing operation member 310 does not swing in the forward rotation direction (counterclockwise in FIG. 42 (a)). Therefore, when there are a plurality of operation modes of the operation device 3300, an operation method for inputting with good timing can be designated, and the player can operate the operation device 3300 by an appropriate method.

  This is not possible with the configuration in which the eccentric cam member 333 is disposed below the lever support shaft 331d1 of the lever member 3340. For example, as in the present embodiment, the rod-shaped member 3345h is disposed on the front side of the lever support shaft 331d1. This effect is achieved for the first time by adopting a configuration in which the received electromagnetic force is transmitted and the main body member 341 is swung in the rising direction.

  Next, an operation device 4300 in the fourth embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 43 to 52. In the first embodiment, the case where the lock member 336 restricts the swing of the lever member 340 in a state where the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the upward position has been described. However, the operation device 4300 in the fourth embodiment is The lock member 4336 restricts the swing of the lever member 4340 in a state where the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the downward position. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the part same as each embodiment mentioned above, and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  FIG. 43 is a front exploded perspective view of the operation device 4300 in the fourth embodiment. In FIG. 43, the outer case member 320 is not shown and the inner case member 4330 is disassembled.

  As shown in FIG. 43, the inner case member 4330 includes a left cover member 4331 and a right cover member 4332 assembled in a box shape in which a lever member 4340 is disposed on the inside, and an eccentric cam projecting from the left cover member 4331. An eccentric cam member 4333 that is pivotally supported by the shaft 331d2 and a lock member 4336 that is pivotally supported by the lock shaft 4331d3 that protrudes from the left cover member 331 are mainly provided. The drive member insertion hole 332d and the second drive device 337 in the present embodiment are slightly different from the first embodiment in the arrangement and posture, but the technical idea of driving the lock member 4336 is different from that in the first embodiment. Since they are the same, the same reference numerals are given and the description thereof is omitted.

  Unlike the left cover member 331 in the first embodiment, the left cover member 4331 includes a plurality of rod-like members 4331d that are formed to protrude rightward from the upper side wall portion 331b and have a cylindrical shape.

  The rod-shaped member 4331d is disposed behind the lever support shaft 331d1 disposed at the top of the left cover member 4331, the eccentric cam shaft 331d2 disposed below the lever support shaft 331d1, and the eccentric cam shaft 331d2. And a lock shaft 4331d3.

  The lock shaft 4331d3 is a shaft through which the lock member 4336 is inserted, and is supported by the left cover member 4331 and the right cover member 4332 in both ends.

  Unlike the left cover member 331 in the first embodiment, the eccentric cam member 4333 includes a cam portion 4333c. The cam portion 4333c has the same configuration as the cam portion 333c, but the diameter of the eccentric cam is larger than that of the cam portion 333c. More specifically, the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the downward position in a state where the end of the cam portion 4333c is aligned with the axis of the main body portion 333a and the maximum diameter portion of the cam portion 4333c is closest to the lever member 4340. The diameter of the eccentric cam is formed to a certain size.

  The lock member 4336 is arranged from the lower side with respect to the lock receiving member 4350 in a state where the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the vicinity of the downward position and the side on which the lock receiving member 4350 of the lever member 4340 is disposed upward. It is a member that abuts and restricts the swinging of the lever member 4340.

  44 (a) is a front view of the lock member 4336, and FIG. 44 (b) is a side view of the lock member 4336 as viewed in the XXXIVb direction of FIG. 44 (a).

  The lock member 4336 has a main body member 4336a formed in a long plate shape, a transmission member 4336b formed in a fan-shaped plate shape and a driving force of the second driving device 337 transmitted by gear engagement. Is mainly provided.

  The main body member 4336a is formed in a main body portion 4336a1 formed in a long plate shape, and in the left-right direction (FIG. 44 (a) left-right direction) of the main body portion 4336a1, and the lock shaft 4331d3 (see FIG. 43) is inserted. Shaft support hole 4336a2, a locking portion 4336a3 protruding above the shaft support hole 4336a2 from the side surface opposite to the transmission member 4336b of the main body portion 4336a1, and a side surface of the main body portion 4336a1 facing the transmission member 4336b. And a recessed portion 4336a4 that is recessed from the back side (right side of FIG. 44B) to the front side below the shaft support hole 4336a2.

  The locking portion 4336a3 is a portion where the other arm portion of the torsion spring SP41 is fixed to the lock shaft 4331d3 and one arm portion is locked to the connecting side wall portion 331c (see FIG. 45). Thereby, the main body member 4336a is always urged counterclockwise in FIG.

  The recessed portion 4336a4 is a portion that comes into contact with the protruding portion 4336b4 of the transmission member 4336b. When the depth of the recessed portion 4336a from the back side is equal to or greater than the thickness of the protruding portion 4336b4 of the transmission member 4336b, the main body member when the main body member 4336a is in the lock standby state (see FIG. 45 (a)). The posture of 4336a can be defined from the relationship between the main body member 4336a and the connecting side wall portion 331c (maintaining the posture while the main body member 4336a is in contact with the connecting side wall portion 331c).

  The transmission member 4336b has a main body portion 4336b1 formed in a sector fan shape and formed with a gear portion engaged with the drive gear 337b on the curved surface portion, and in the left-right direction of the main body portion 4336b1 (FIG. 44 (a) left-right direction). A shaft support hole 4336b2 through which the lock shaft 4331d3 (see FIG. 43) is inserted, a plate-shaped detection piece 4336b3 that can detect the attitude of the transmission member 4336b through a gap between sensor members (not shown), and a main body And a convex portion 4336b4 that is convex from the side surface of the portion 4336b1 facing the main body member 4336a and that abuts against the concave portion 4336a4 in the swinging direction of the main body portion 4336b1.

  The projecting portion 4336b4 is formed at the rear side end of the main body portion 4336b1. Thus, by swinging the transmission member 4336b in the direction to approach the connecting side wall portion 331c, the back side surface of the main body member 4336a that is swung by the urging force of the torsion spring SP41 can be brought into contact with the connecting side wall portion 331c. it can.

  FIG. 45A and FIG. 45B are side views of the lock member 4336. 45 (a) and 45 (b), the drive gear 337b and the connecting side wall portion 331c are illustrated in an assembled state.

  The lock member 4336 can be configured in a lock standby state shown in FIG. 45A and a lock forced release state shown in FIG. The lock standby state means a state in which the transmission member 4336b is disposed in proximity to the connection side wall portion 331c and the main body member 4336a is in contact with the connection side wall portion 331c.

  Further, the lock forcibly released state means that the drive gear 337b is rotated from the lock standby state and the transmission member 4336b is swung away from the connection side wall portion 331c so that the main body member 4336a faces the lever member 4340. This means that the end portion is disposed at a position where it does not contact the lever member 4340. In the lock forcibly released state, the protruding portion 4336b4 of the transmission member 4336b contacts the recessed portion 4336a4 and maintains the posture of the main body member 4336a.

  When the lever member 4340 comes into contact with the main body member 4336a in the lock standby state, the swing of the lever member 4340 can be restricted by the lock member 4336 (see FIG. 47A). If the swing of the lever member 4340 is changed from the restricted state to the lock forcibly released state, the restriction of the swing of the lever member 4340 is released and the lever member 4340 is made swingable (see FIG. 48).

  Here, by setting the lock standby state again (by rotating the drive gear 337b and rotating the transmission member 4336b clockwise in FIG. 6A), as described later, the lock member 4336 of the lever member 4340 is contacted. As the contacting end moves over the lock member 4336 upward, the swing of the lever member 4340 can be automatically restricted. On the other hand, maintaining the lock forcibly released state can prevent the swing of the lever member 4340 from being restricted.

  FIG. 46 is an exploded front perspective view of the lever member 4340 and the swing operation member 310. The lever member 4340 includes a main body member 4341 formed of a metal material such as iron and formed in a long bar shape having a U-shaped cross section, a lock receiving member 4350 that is coaxially supported by the shaft hole 341b of the main body member 4341, It is mainly composed of.

  The main body member 4341 is formed in a long bar shape having a U-shaped cross section and has a front main body portion 4341a having a notch on the left side of the rear end (left side in FIG. 46) and a notch of the front main body portion 4341a1. The rear main body portion 4341a2 having an L-shaped cross section, and an electromagnet member M41 that adsorbs the rear main body portion 4341a2 and the front main body portion 4341a1 only when the current is conducted and fastened to the upper surface side of the rear main body portion 4341a2. And a pair of shaft holes 341b drilled in the left-right direction at a substantially central portion of the front main body portion 4341a1.

  The lock receiving member 4350 is formed in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape that is elongated in the front-rear direction and is fastened and fixed to the lower surface of the rear main body portion 4341a2 of the lever member 4340, and in the left-right direction at the front end portion of the main body portion 4351. And a shaft hole 4352 that is coaxial with the shaft hole 341b and supported by the lever support shaft 331d1 (see FIG. 43). Therefore, the rear main body portion 4341a2 can swing around the lever support shaft 331d1 independently of the front main body portion 4341a1, which will be described later.

  47A and 47B are cross-sectional views of the operation device 4300 taken along line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 47 (a) and 47 (b) show a state in which the lever member 4340 is restricted from swinging by the lock member 4336, and FIG. 47 (b) shows the neck from the state shown in FIG. 47 (a). A state in which the swing operation member 310 is swung rearward about the shaft support rod 363 (see FIG. 46) is illustrated, and a cross-sectional view of the swing operation member 310 is omitted. In the present embodiment, the state shown in FIG. In FIG. 17A, the operation device 300 is illustrated, but since the external appearance is the same, the operation device 4300 is regarded as being described. Hereinafter, the same applies to the present embodiment.

  As shown in FIG. 47 (b), as in the first embodiment, the swing operation member 310 is swung and the back button member 312d is pushed in while the swing of the lever member 4340 is restricted. Can do.

  In this embodiment, since the lock member 4336 is in contact with the lever member 4340 from the lower side behind the lever support shaft 331d1, the lock member 4336 resists the erroneous operation of lifting the swing operation member 310 with the strength of the lock member 4336. Can do.

  The rear end portion of the lever member 4340 abuts behind the lock member 4336 and the lock shaft 4331d3, thereby suppressing the lock member 4336 from swinging toward the lock forcibly released state (see FIG. 45B). can do. Accordingly, a load can be applied from the lever member 4340 to the lock member 4336 in the direction in which the lock member 4336 is tilted forward (leftward in FIG. 47A), and the posture of the lock member 4336 can be maintained.

  In this embodiment, the eccentric cam member 4333 can be separated from the lever member 4340 in a state where the swing of the lever member 4340 is restricted by the lock member 4336. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the eccentric cam member 4333 and the lever member 4340 from being damaged when the eccentric cam member 4333 rotates due to a malfunction or the like while the rocking of the lever member 4340 is restricted by the lock member 4336. it can.

  FIG. 48 is a cross-sectional view of the operation device 4300 taken along line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. FIG. 48 illustrates a state in which the lock member 4336 is in a lock forced release state and the lever member 4340 starts to swing.

  As shown in FIG. 48, when the lock member 4336 is brought into the lock forcibly released state from the state where the lever member 4340 is prevented from swinging by the lock member 4336 (see FIG. 47A), the biasing force of the torsion spring SP1 As a result, the lever member 4340 swings in the direction in which it rises (clockwise in FIG. 48).

  This can prompt the player to operate the operation device 4300, but the swinging speed of the lever member 4340 is determined by the urging force of the torsion spring SP1, and does not change every time, so the degree of freedom in performance is reduced. There was a problem that.

  The operation speed can be varied by changing the posture of the eccentric cam member 4333 in contact with the lever member 4340 in various ways and interlocking the rotation of the eccentric cam member 4333 and the swing of the lever member 4340. However, when the lever member 4340 accidentally collides with the eccentric cam member 4333 at a high speed, the eccentric cam member 4333 may be damaged. Therefore, the third sensor member 325a3 (see FIG. 9) indicates that the eccentric cam member 4333 is in the retracted phase (see FIG. 49 (a)) when the lock member 4336 is swung toward the lock forcibly released state. It is preferable that it is detected after.

  Here, the reaction of vibration of the vibration device 366 included in the swing operation member 310 acts in a direction in which the lever member 4340 is tilted forward along the straight line L1. Thus, for example, by vibrating the vibration device 366 while the lever member 4340 is swung in the direction in which the lever member 4340 rises (clockwise in FIG. 48), the lever member 4340 can be pushed back in the forward tilting direction. The swing speed and swing mode of the member 4340 can be changed (can be slowed down). Therefore, the lever member 4340 can be prevented from accidentally colliding with the eccentric cam member 4333 at high speed.

  49A and 49B are cross-sectional views of the operation device 4300 taken along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 49A shows a state in which the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the upward position, and in FIG. 49B, the swing operation member 310 is rearward from the state in FIG. 49 (a) (right direction) is shown, and the swinging operation member 310 is not shown in cross section.

  49 (a) and 49 (b), the lock member 4336 is maintained in the lock forcibly released state. Therefore, for example, even if the player performs an operation of holding the swing operation member 310 and moving it up and down from the state shown in FIG. 49A, the swing of the lever member 4340 is not restricted by the lock member 4336. When the person releases the hand, the swing operation member 310 is returned to the upward position by the biasing force of the torsion spring SP1.

  50 (a), 50 (b), 51 (a), and 51 (b) are cross-sectional views of the operation device 4300 along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 17 (a). 50 (a), 50 (b), 51 (a), and 51 (b), the state in which the lever member 4340 is swung by the rotation of the eccentric cam member 4333 is illustrated in time series. The

  FIG. 50A shows a state in which the eccentric cam member 4333 is in the retracted phase, the lever member 4340 is in contact with the eccentric cam member 4333, and the lock member 4336 is in the lock standby state. ) Shows a state in which the eccentric cam member 4333 is rotated counterclockwise in FIG. 50 (a) by about 90 degrees from the state of FIG. 50 (a).

  In FIG. 51A, the eccentric cam member 4333 further rotates in the same direction from the state of FIG. 50B, and the lever member 4340 is in contact with the upper end of the lock member 4336 and the swinging thereof is restricted. FIG. 51B shows a state in which the eccentric cam member 4333 is further rotated in the same direction from the state of FIG. 51A to be in the retracted phase (see FIG. 50A).

  As shown in FIGS. 50 (a), 50 (b), 51 (a), and 51 (b), the operation device 4300 is pushed down by the player after the swing operation member 310 is placed in the upward position. Even when the operation is not performed, by swinging the lever member 4340 by the eccentric cam member 4333, the swing operation member can be moved to the downward position (initial position).

  The lock member 4336 is placed in a lock standby state. In this case, when the lever member 4340 pushes the left side surface of the lock member 4336, the lock member 4336 rotates in a direction in which the lock member 4336 tilts backward (see FIG. 50B). On the other hand, the lock member 4336 is always urged in the direction to be tilted forward by the torsion spring SP41 (see FIG. 45). Therefore, when the lever member 4340 moves to above the lock member 4336, the urging force causes (See FIG. 51 (a)). In this manner, in the process of swinging the lever member 4340, the lock member 4336 automatically regulates the swing of the lever member 4340.

  For this reason, even when the timing at which the player pushes down the swing operation member 310 is unknown, the swing member 4340 is placed in the downward position so that the lock member 4336 restricts the swing of the lever member 4340. It can be done reliably.

  In the arrangement in which the swing of the lever member 4340 is restricted (see FIG. 51A), the maximum diameter portion of the eccentric cam member 4333 is brought into contact with the lever member 4340. Therefore, in a state where the swing of the lever member 4340 is regulated by the lock member 4333 (see FIG. 51A), the eccentric cam member 4333 is not rotated backward and returned, but is kept rotating in the same direction. The member 4333 can be returned to the retracted phase. Therefore, a detection device that detects the timing of rotating the eccentric cam member 4333 in reverse can be omitted, and the first drive device 335 that drives the eccentric cam member 4333 can be easily controlled.

  FIG. 52 is a cross-sectional view of the operation device 4300 taken along line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. The outer shapes of the lever member 4340, the swing operation member 310, and the eccentric cam member 4333 in the state shown in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 52, when the eccentric cam member 4333 is reciprocally rotated about the eccentric cam shaft 331d2 at an angle θ41, the lever member 4340 can be reciprocally swung about the lever support shaft 331d1 at an angle θ42. As a result, it is possible to perform a turning operation that causes the player to pay attention to the operation device 4300.

  At this time, the cam portion 4333c of the eccentric cam member 4333 is reciprocally rotated in a state where the cam portion 4333c is disposed on the opposite side of the lever support shaft 331d1, so that the position from the contact position between the eccentric cam member 4333 and the lever member 4340 to the lever support shaft 331d1. The distance can be kept long. Accordingly, the driving force necessary to swing the lever member 4340 can be suppressed (the driving force may be small), and the load applied from the lever member 4340 to the eccentric cam member 4333 can be suppressed (overload). Can withstand).

  Further, when the lock member 4336 is in the lock forcibly released state, when the lever member 4340 is reciprocally swung, the lever member 4340 can be prevented from being loaded, and the eccentric cam member 4333 is rotated. Therefore, the driving force generated by the first driving device 335 (see FIG. 43) can be suppressed.

  53 (a) is a top view of the main body member 4341 and the lock receiving member 4350 of the lever member 4340. FIGS. 53 (b) and 53 (c) show the lever member as viewed in the LIIIb direction of FIG. 53 (a). 4 is a side view of a main body member 4341 and a lock receiving member 4350 of 4340. FIG. FIG. 53 (c) illustrates a state in which the front main body portion 4341a1 is swung in a direction away from the electromagnet member M41 from the state of FIG. 53 (a).

  As shown in FIG. 53 (a), the front main body portion 4341a1 and the rear main body portion 4341a2 are adsorbed by the electromagnet member M41. Therefore, the front main body portion 4341a1 and the rear main body portion 4341a2 are integrally swung unless a load equal to or greater than the attractive force of the electromagnet member M41 is applied to the main body member 4341.

  On the other hand, the electromagnet member M41 loses its attractive force when the current conduction stops. Therefore, for example, when the power is turned off, the relative position (angle) between the front main body portion 4341a1 and the rear main body portion 4341a2 changes (see FIG. 53C).

  54 (a) and 54 (b) are partial cross-sectional views of the pachinko machine 4010 and the operation device 4300 as viewed in section along the line VIb-VIb in FIG. In FIG. 6, the pachinko machine 10 and the operation device 300 according to the first embodiment are illustrated. However, since the external appearance is the same as the pachinko machine 4010 and the operation device 4300 according to the fourth embodiment, the pachinko machine according to the fourth embodiment. Description will be made assuming that 4010 and the operation device 4300 are illustrated.

  Here, in the operation device 4300, the protrusion length of the swing operation member 310 to the front side changes depending on whether the swing operation member 310 is disposed at the upward position or the downward position. That is, as compared with the state shown in FIG. 54B, the swing operation member 310 is projected to the front side by the distance X41 in the state shown in FIG.

  In this case, since the width dimension in the front-rear direction of the pachinko machine 4010 is smaller in the state shown in FIG. 54B, for example, when selecting a box for packing the pachinko machine 4010, it is shown in FIG. The box can be made smaller by selecting based on the state. On the other hand, when the lever member 4340 is fixed in the shape of a straight bar and the power is turned off with the lock member 4336 restricted from swinging, the swinging operation member 310 can be applied even if external force is applied to the swinging operation member 310. There was a problem that 310 could not be placed in the upward position, and the pachinko machine 4010 could not be put in the packing box.

  In addition, if the width of the line is determined by the width of the pachinko machine 4010 in a state where the swing operation member 310 is placed in the upward position on a factory inspection line or the like, the swing operation member 310 is erroneously placed in the downward position. There is a problem that the swinging operation member 310 may collide with the inspection machine or the like by flowing through the line in such a state.

  On the other hand, in this embodiment, the attractive force of the electromagnet member M41 that integrates the main body member 4341 of the lever member 4340 is lost when the power is turned off. Therefore, by turning off the power, regardless of whether or not the lock receiving member 4350 is in contact with the lock member 4336, the urging force of the torsion spring SP1 swings the front main body portion 4341a1 of the lever member 4340 in the rising direction. The swing operation member 310 can be disposed in an upward position.

  Thereby, the swing operation member 310 can be reliably arranged in the upward position at the time of packing. Further, by turning off the power when the pachinko machine 4010 is passed through the inspection line, it is possible to prevent the swing operation member 310 from colliding with the inspection machine or the like.

  Next, an operation device 5300 according to the fifth embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 55 to 61. Although the case where the eccentric cam member 4333 and the lock member 4336 are driven independently has been described in the fourth embodiment, the operation device 5300 according to the fifth embodiment has a single drive motor 335a having the single eccentric cam member 5333 and the lock member 5336. Are driven synchronously. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the part same as each embodiment mentioned above, and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  FIG. 55 is a front exploded perspective view of the inner case member 5330 in the fifth embodiment. In FIG. 55, the right cover member is not shown.

  As shown in FIG. 55, the inner case member 5330 includes an eccentric cam member 5333 that is pivotally supported by the eccentric cam shaft 331d2, and a cylindrical unlocking shaft that is disposed behind the eccentric cam shaft 331d2 with a drive gear 335b interposed therebetween. 5331d5, a lock release cam member 5339 supported by the lock release shaft 5331d5, and a lock member 5336 supported by the lock shaft 4331d3 are mainly provided.

  56 (a) is a front view of the eccentric cam member 5333, FIG. 56 (b) is a bottom view of the eccentric cam member 5333 as viewed in the LVIb direction of FIG. 56 (a), and FIG. FIG. 57 is a side view of the eccentric cam member 5333 as viewed in the LVIc direction of FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 56, the eccentric cam member 5333 mainly includes a cam portion 5333c having a substantially D shape in front view and an umbrella portion 5333f in which a notch 5333f1 is partially disposed.

  The cam portion 5333c is formed in a substantially D shape when viewed from the front, is linearly extended to the end portion of the maximum diameter of the eccentric cam member 5333, and has a rigid portion 5333c1 having high rigidity, and is rigid compared to the rigid portion 5333c1. And a buffer portion 5333c2 that reduces the impact from the lever member 4340. In the present embodiment, the thickness of the rigid body portion 5333c1 in the front view is set to approximately three times the thickness of the buffer portion 5333c2 in the front view.

  The notch 5333f1 of the umbrella portion 5333f is a notch formed to have a size that allows the drive gear 355b to be pulled out in the axial direction when it is opposed to the drive gear 355b. The notch 5333f1 corresponds to the drive gear 355b (see FIG. 55). This is a mark for adjusting the initial phase of the eccentric cam member 5333. Here, when the eccentric cam member 5333 and the lock member 5336 are operated synchronously by a single drive motor 335a (see FIG. 55), the posture of the lever member 4340 is detected and only one of the lock member 5336 or the eccentric cam member 5333 is detected. Therefore, there is a problem that the phases of the eccentric cam member 5333 and the lock member 5336 must be matched in advance.

  In this embodiment, since the notch 5333f1 is disposed in the umbrella portion 5333f, the initial phase of the eccentric cam member 5333 can be easily determined using the notch 5333f1 as a mark.

  When the umbrella portion 5333f is disposed on the opposite side of the main body portion 333a (downward in FIG. 56B), the first driving device 335 (see FIG. 55) is fastened and fixed to the left cover member 4331 (see FIG. 55). In this state, the eccentric cam member 5333 cannot be inserted when the umbrella portion 5333f hits the drive gear 335b when the eccentric cam member 5333 is inserted into the eccentric cam shaft 331d2.

  That is, since the eccentric cam member 5333 can be inserted into the eccentric cam shaft 331d2 only in a posture in which the notch 5333f1 is opposed to the drive gear 335b, the eccentric cam member 5333 can be assembled in a correct posture.

  57 (a) is a front view of the unlocking cam member 5339, and FIG. 57 (b) is a bottom view of the unlocking cam member 5339 as viewed in the LVIIb direction of FIG. 57 (a). ) Is a side view of the unlocking cam member 5339 as viewed in the LVIIc direction of FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 57, the unlocking cam member 5339 is formed in the same size as the main body portion 333a of the eccentric cam member 5333, and the gear teeth meshed with the drive gear 335b (see FIG. 59) on the outer peripheral surface. A main body 5339a formed with a shaft, a shaft hole 5339b that is drilled in the center of the main body 5339a and through which the unlocking shaft 5331d5 is inserted, and radially outward along the front side surface of the main body 5339a. A release portion 5339c that is extended and formed with a length capable of contacting the locking portion 4336a3 of the lock member 5336, and a disk-shaped umbrella portion 5339d that covers the gear portion on the front side of the main body portion 5339a, Prepare mainly.

  The umbrella portion 5339d includes a notch 5339d1 that is partially cut from the outer peripheral surface toward the shaft side. The notch 5339d1 of the umbrella portion 5339d is a notch that is formed in a size that allows the drive gear 355b to be pulled out in the axial direction when it is disposed opposite to the drive gear 355b, and corresponds to the drive gear 355b (see FIG. 55). This is a mark for adjusting the initial phase of the unlocking cam member 5339.

  When the umbrella portion 5339d is disposed on the opposite side of the main body portion 5339a (downward in FIG. 57B), the first driving device 335 (see FIG. 55) is fastened and fixed to the left cover member 4331 (see FIG. 55). In this state, when the umbrella portion 5339d hits the drive gear 335b when the unlock cam member 5339 is inserted into the unlock shaft 5331d5, the unlock cam member 5339 cannot be inserted.

  That is, the unlocking cam member 5339 can be inserted into the unlocking shaft 5331d5 only in a posture in which the notch 5339d1 is opposed to the drive gear 335b, so that the unlocking cam member 5339 can be assembled in a correct posture.

  58 (a) is a front view of the lock member 5336, and FIG. 58 (b) is a side view of the lock member 5336 as viewed in the LVIII direction of FIG. 58 (a). As shown in FIGS. 58 (a) and 58 (b), the lock member 5336 is configured by a member formed in a long plate shape, and a transmission member 4336b (FIG. 44) formed in a fan-shaped plate shape in cross section. Is unnecessary.

  The lock member 5336 has a main body member 5336a formed in a long plate shape, and is drilled in the left-right direction (FIG. 58 (a) left-right direction) of the main body member 5336a, and the lock shaft 4331d3 (see FIG. 43) is inserted. And a locking portion 5336c protruding above the shaft support hole 5336b from the side surface (the left side in FIG. 58 (a)) of the main body member 5336a facing the lock release cam member 5339. Prepare for.

  The locking portion 5336c is fixed to the lock shaft 4331d3, and one arm portion is locked to the connecting side wall portion 331c. The other arm portion of the torsion spring SP41 is locked and the unlocking cam member 5339 (see FIG. 57). It is a part pushed from the release part 5339c.

  The main body member 5336a has a curved wall portion 5336a1 that is curved along the locus of the rear end portion of the lever member 4340 on the side surface that comes into contact with the lever member 4340 when the lock member 5336 is in a lock standby state, A projecting portion 5336a2 that mainly projects along a circle centering on the shaft support hole 5336b from the upper end portion of the curved wall portion 5336a1 to the side close to the lever member 4340 is mainly provided.

  The projecting portion 5336a2 is inclined upward as the lower end surface approaches the tip. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the lever member 4340 from being caught (locked) by the protruding portion 5336a2. Therefore, the driving force of the first driving device 335 that generates the driving force for driving the lever member 4340 via the eccentric cam member 5333 can be suppressed.

  59A and 59B show a lever member 4340, an eccentric cam member 5333, an unlock cam member 5339, and a lock member 5336 representing the operations of the lever member 4340, the eccentric cam member 5333, and the lock release cam. FIG. 11 is a schematic diagram of a member 5339 and a lock member 5336. FIG. 59A shows a state in which the lever member 4340 is restricted from swinging by the lock member 5336. In FIG. 59B, the drive gear 335b is rotated clockwise from the state of FIG. 59A. When the lock release cam member 5339 pushes the lock member 5336, the restriction of the swing of the lever member 4340 by the lock member 5336 is released, and the state where the lever member 4340 is swung in the rising direction (clockwise) is illustrated.

  As shown in FIGS. 59A and 59B, the lever member 4340 can be swung from the initial position before the driving force is applied to the lever member 4340 via the eccentric cam member 5333. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the eccentric cam member 5333 from being damaged by the player operating the swing operation member 310 immediately after the swing operation member 310 moves. For example, when the swing operation member 310 starts moving from the initial position, even if the player performs an operation to swing the swing operation member 310 up and down, the lever member 4340 is separated from the eccentric cam member 5333. The collision between the cam member 5333 and the lever member 4340 can be suppressed.

  This is a problem that cannot be avoided in the case where the swinging of the lever member 4340 is restricted with the swing operation member 310 placed in the upward position (for example, in the case of the first embodiment). As in the embodiment, this is solved by restricting the swing of the lever member 4340 in a state in which the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the downward position.

  Even when the player does not grip the swing operation member 310, the eccentric cam member 5333 is mechanically positioned when the lock member 5336 cancels the swing restriction (see FIG. 59B). Therefore, the lever member 4340 can reliably contact the lever member 4340 at a specific position of the eccentric cam member 5333 (a position on the short diameter side, a position on the opposite side of the cam portion 5333c).

  As shown in FIG. 59B, when the restriction of the swing of the lever member 4340 by the lock member 5336 is released and the lever member 4340 comes into contact with the eccentric cam member 5333, the eccentric cam member 5333 has the cylindrical portion 333b with the lever. The posture closest to the member 4340 is taken. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the cam member 5333c from being damaged when the lever member 4340 collides with the cam portion 5333c.

  Further, since the cam portion 5333c is disposed on the opposite side of the lever member 4340 with the eccentric cam shaft 331d2 interposed therebetween, the swing of the lever member 4340 immediately after the restriction of the swing of the lever member 4340 by the lock member 5336 is released. The angle (movement amount) can be secured to the maximum. That is, in this embodiment, the locking member 5336 and the eccentric cam member 5333 are operated in synchronization, and immediately after the restriction of the swing of the lever member 4340 by the lock member 5336 is released, the swing angle ( This is a mode of synchronization in which the maximum amount of movement is ensured. Thereby, when the restriction of the swing of the lever member 4340 by the lock member 5336 is released, a large amount of movement of the swing operation member 310 (see FIG. 17B) can be secured, and the effect of the swing operation member 310 is achieved. Can be improved.

  60A and 60B show a lever member 4340, an eccentric cam member 5333, an unlock cam member 5339, and a lock member 5336 showing the operations of the lever member 4340, the eccentric cam member 5333, and the unlock cam. FIG. 11 is a schematic diagram of a member 5339 and a lock member 5336. In FIG. 60 (a), the drive gear 335b is rotated clockwise from the state of FIG. 59 (b), the release portion 5339c of the lock release cam member 5339 is disposed above the locking portion 5336c of the lock member 5336, and the lock member 5336. FIG. 60B shows a state in which the drive gear 335b is rotated clockwise from the state of FIG. 60A, and the rear end of the lever member 4340 is a curved wall of the lock member 5336. A state of sliding with the part 5336a1 is shown.

  As shown in FIG. 60A, the swing speed of the lever member 4340 can be improved by swinging the lever member 4340 on the side surface of the rigid portion 5333c1.

  Here, when the major axis portion of the circular eccentric cam hits from the rotational direction of the eccentric cam of the lever member 4340, the moment applied to the eccentric cam increases, and the load in the rotational direction applied to the drive device increases. Therefore, when it is not known when the eccentric cam collides with the lever member 4340, it is preferable that the large-diameter portion does not contact the operation member in the rotation direction of the transmission member (circular eccentric cam). On the other hand, if it is possible to grasp when the lever member 4340 and the eccentric cam member 5333 come into contact with each other, the rocking speed of the operation member is increased by swinging the operation member at the large outer diameter portion (outward in the radial direction). Because it can be large, the production effect can be improved.

  In the case of synchronous driving, the timing at which the lever member 4340 collides with the eccentric cam member 5333 can be mechanically adjusted. Accordingly, when the lever member 4340 comes into contact with the eccentric cam member 5333, the rigid body portion 5333c1 can be slightly retracted, and the rigid body portion 5333c1 can be brought into contact with the lever member 4340 at the timing after the collision. The speed of operation can be improved.

  In the present embodiment, the lever member 4340 is moved up and down by alternately repeating the state shown in FIG. 60A and the state shown in FIG. 60B (by switching the rotation direction of the drive gear 335b alternately). The swing operation member 310 (see FIG. 54) disposed at the tip of the lever member 4340 can be swung back and forth.

  Here, when the lock member 5336 is driven alone, the lock member 4336 is forcedly released (see FIG. 48) in a state where the lever member 4340 is swung up and down, and the lock member 5336 is operated by a player or an eccentric cam member. When the lever member 4340 is pushed up by 4333 and swings in a direction in which the lever member 4340 is tilted forward and the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the downward position, the lock member 4336 is placed in the lock standby state. Oscillation can be restricted.

  As a result, it is possible to suppress resistance from being applied from the lock member 4336 to the lever member 4340 in a state in which the lever member 4340 is reciprocally swung up and down (see FIG. 52). The driving force can be reduced.

  On the other hand, when the lock member 5336 and the eccentric cam member 5333 are synchronously controlled, the posture of the member that drives the lock member 5336 (the lock release cam member 5339 in this embodiment) depends on the posture of the eccentric cam member 5333. Therefore, particularly when the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the downward position by being operated by the player, it may be difficult to immediately place the lock member 5336 in the lock standby state.

  For example, when the release portion 5339c of the lock release cam member 5339 is disposed on the opposite side of the lock member 5336, it is necessary to rotate the lock member 5336 halfway before the release portion 5339c starts to push the lock member 5336. Therefore, it is difficult to swing the lock member 5336 according to the player's operation.

  On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the lock member 5336 is always in the lock standby state in the state shown in FIGS. 60 (a) and 60 (b). As a result, the lock member 5336 is brought into contact with the lower surface of the lever member 4340 whenever the player operates to swing the lever member 4340 in a forward tilting direction and the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the downward position. Then, swinging of the lever member 4340 is restricted (see FIG. 62).

  However, when the lever member 4340 is reciprocally swung by the rotation of the eccentric cam member 5333, when the lever member 4340 comes into contact with the lock member 5336, the lever member 4340 receives resistance from the lock member 5336 and a driving force for driving the eccentric cam member 5333 is generated. There is a risk of becoming excessive.

  In contrast, in the present embodiment, the curved wall portion 5336a1 formed in the lock member 5336 causes the lock member 5336 to escape from the lever member 4340 when the lever member 4340 is reciprocally swung by the rotation of the eccentric cam member 5333. Therefore, the resistance applied from the lock member 5336 to the lever member 4340 can be suppressed.

  Further, when the lever member 4340 swings in the forward tilt direction from the state shown in FIG. 60B, the rear end portion of the lever member 4340 comes into contact with the protruding portion 5336a2, and the lock member 5336 is directed to the unlocked state side. (The clockwise direction in FIG. 60 (a)), the lever member 4340 moves above the lock member 5336, the lock member 5336 returns to the biasing direction, and the lock member 5340 enters the lock standby state. Oscillation is restricted.

  Therefore, it is possible to restrict the swing direction of the lever member 4340 at an arbitrary timing while suppressing the resistance when the lever member 4340 is swung back and forth.

  The unlocking cam member 5339 transmits a driving force to the locking member 5336 only when the locking member 5336 is in the unlocked state (see FIG. 59B), and otherwise the locking member 5336 has a driving force of the locking member 5336. The transmission is canceled. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 60, when the eccentric cam member 5333 is reciprocally swung, it is possible to prevent the lock member 5336 from operating in conjunction with the lever member 4340 and causing problems such as collision.

  As shown in FIG. 60 (a), until the lock member 5336 is arranged at the lock standby position, the lever member 4340 is in the posture in which the swing operation member 310 is arranged in the upward position (posture in FIG. 59 (b)). To maintain.

  Here, when the eccentric cam member 5333 and the lock member 5336 are synchronously controlled, the lock member 5336 is moved from the unlocked state (see FIG. 59 (b)) to the lock standby state (see FIG. 60 (a)). Therefore, the eccentric cam member 5333 may cause the lever member 4340 to swing. In this case, there is a problem that the swing operation member 310 cannot be maintained in the upward position in the lock standby state.

  In the present embodiment, since the rigid body portion 5333c1 is formed in a straight line in contact with the outer periphery of the cylindrical portion 333b (see FIG. 60A), the eccentric cam member 5333 is viewed from a posture at a predetermined angle (FIG. 59B). 60 (a)), the gap between the rigid body portion 5333c1 and the lever member 4340 remains filled, and the lever member 4340 can be prevented from swinging. Thus, the swing operation member 310 can be maintained in the upward position while the lock member 5336 is changed from the unlocked state to the lock standby state.

  61A and 61B are schematic views of the lever member 4340, the eccentric cam member 5333, the lock release cam member 5339, and the lock member 5336. FIG. FIG. 61A shows a state in which the drive gear 335b is rotated clockwise from the state of FIG. 60B and the rear end portion of the lever member 4340 is in contact with the protruding portion 5336a2 of the lock member 5336. 61 (b) shows a state in which the eccentric cam member 5333 has rotated from the state shown in FIG. 61 (a) and has been rotated to the position where the upper surface of the lock member 5336 contacts the lower surface of the lever member 4340. The

  As shown in FIG. 61A, the rear end portion of the lever member 4340 pushes up the protruding portion 5336a2 of the lock member 5336, so that the lock member 5336 rotates in a direction away from the lever member 4340. When the eccentric cam member 5333 is further rotated, the rear end portion of the lever member 4340 moves above the upper end portion of the lock member 5336, so that the lock member 5336 is restored by the biasing force of the torsion spring SP41 (see FIG. 45). Thus, the movement of the lever member 4340 can be restricted on the upper surface of the lock member 5336.

  Until the rear end portion of the lever member 4340 comes into contact with the projecting portion 5336a2 of the lock member 5336, the lock member 5336 is caused to escape from the lever member 4340 by the curved wall portion 5336a1, so that the lock member 5336 is locked to the lever member 4340. It is set as the structure which can suppress the resistance applied from an iron.

  In addition, the load is applied from the lever member 4340 to the lock member 5336 during a short period in which the rear end portion of the lever member 4340 is in contact with the protruding portion 5336a2, and thus the reaction force of the torsion spring SP41 (see FIG. 45). The locking member 5336 can enter the lower part of the lever member 4340 (see FIG. 61B), and a large speed can be secured. Therefore, the movement of the lever member 4340 by the lock member 5336 can be reliably regulated.

  62 is a schematic diagram of the lever member 4340, the eccentric cam member 5333, the lock release cam member 5339, and the lock member 5336. FIG. 62 shows a state where the player has pushed down the lever member 4340 from the state shown in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 61 (b), a circumscribed circle C 41 of the cam portion 5333 c centering on the cylindrical portion 333 b of the eccentric cam member 5333 is in contact with the lower surface of the lever member 4340. Therefore, it is not necessary to return the eccentric cam member 5333 in the opposite direction (clockwise in FIG. 62) in a state where the swing operation member 310 is operated by the player and is disposed at the downward position, and the eccentric cam member 5333 is moved in the same direction ( The eccentric cam member 5333 can be returned to the initial position (see FIG. 59A) by rotating it counterclockwise in FIG.

  60B, even when the player does not push down the lever member 4340 in the direction to tilt forward, the eccentric cam member 5333 is moved in the same direction (reverse to FIG. 62) from the state shown in FIG. The lever member 4340 is swung by rotating it clockwise, and the lock member 5336 is brought into contact with the lower side of the lever member 4340 (see FIG. 61B) to restrict the swing of the lever member 4340. Can do.

  Thereby, after the lock member 5336 is brought into the unlocked state, the swing operation member 310 can be returned to the downward position regardless of whether or not the player performs an operation of pushing down the swing operation member 310.

  Next, a sixth embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 63 to 65. In the fifth embodiment, when the lock member 5336 is in the unlocked state, the rigid body portion 5333c1 of the cam portion 5333c is disposed below the eccentric cam shaft 331d2, so that the swinging width of the lever member 4340 is ensured. In the operation device 6300 according to the sixth embodiment, the rigid body portion 5333c1 of the cam portion 5333c is disposed above the eccentric cam shaft 331d2 when the lock member 5336 is unlocked. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the part same as each embodiment mentioned above, and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  63 (a) and 63 (b) show a lever member 4340, an eccentric cam member representing the operations of the lever member 4340, the eccentric cam member 6333, the lock release cam member 5339 and the lock member 5336 in the sixth embodiment in time series. 6333 is a schematic diagram of a lock release cam member 5339 and a lock member 5336. FIG. FIG. 63A shows a state in which the lever member 4340 is restricted from swinging by the lock member 5336. In FIG. 63B, the drive gear 335b is rotated clockwise from the state of FIG. 63A. When the lock release cam member 5339 pushes the lock member 5336, the restriction of the swing of the lever member 4340 by the lock member 5336 is released, and the state where the lever member 4340 is swung in the rising direction (clockwise) is illustrated.

  As shown in FIG. 63 (a), the eccentric cam member 6333 has an unlock cam member 5339 in a posture in which the cam portion 5333c faces the lever member 4340 side immediately before the unlock cam member 5339 comes into contact with the lock member 5336. Accordingly, the notch 6333f1 of the umbrella portion 6333f is recessed in a different arrangement from that of the fifth embodiment.

  As shown in FIGS. 63 (a) and 63 (b), when the lock member 5336 is unlocked, the eccentric cam member 6333 and the lever member 4340 immediately come into contact with each other. It swings following the rotation of the member 6333. Therefore, according to the method of synchronizing the operations of the eccentric cam member 6333 and the lock release cam member 5339 in this embodiment, it is difficult for the player to recognize the timing of releasing the restriction of the lock member 5336.

  Further, since the swing speed of the lever member 4340 depends on the rotational speed of the eccentric cam member 6333, the swing speed of the lever member 4340 can be arbitrarily set immediately after the lock member 5336 is released. Thereby, the freedom degree of design of the rocking speed of the lever member 4340 can be improved, and the effect of moving the swing operation member 310 up and down can be improved.

  FIGS. 64A and 64B show a lever member 4340, an eccentric cam member 6333, an unlock cam member 5339, and a lock member 5336 showing the operations of the lever member 4340, the eccentric cam member 6333, and the unlock cam. FIG. 11 is a schematic diagram of a member 5339 and a lock member 5336.

  In FIG. 64 (a), the drive gear 335b is rotated clockwise from the state of FIG. 63 (b), and the release portion 5339c of the lock release cam member 5339 is disposed above the locking portion 5336c of the lock member 5336. 64B shows a state in which the drive gear 335b is rotated clockwise from the state of FIG. 64A, and the rigid body portion 5333c1 of the eccentric cam member 6333 is below the lever member 4340. A state of contacting the side surface is shown.

  As shown in FIGS. 64A and 64B, when the cam portion 5333c of the eccentric cam member 6333 is disposed on the opposite side of the lever member 4340 with the eccentric cam shaft 331d2 interposed therebetween, the lever member 4340 is disposed. Is rocked by the eccentric cam shaft 331d2. Therefore, there is no possibility that the cam portion 5333c and the lever member 4340 collide with each other. Even when the rotational speed of the eccentric cam member 6333 is increased, an overload is generated when the lever member 4340 and the cam portion 5333c collide with each other. The eccentric cam member 6333 is not damaged.

  Therefore, by increasing the rotational speed of the eccentric cam member 6333 only between FIGS. 64 (a) and 64 (b), the lever member 4340 is in the state shown in FIG. 64 (a) (the rear end of the lever member 4340 is at its maximum). It is possible to shorten the period of time that is set at the lower end). Thereby, since the period during which the lever member 4340 is in the state of FIG. 64A can be arbitrarily set, the degree of freedom in designing the swing operation of the lever member 4340 can be improved.

  FIGS. 65A and 65B are schematic views of the lever member 4340, the eccentric cam member 6333, the lock release cam member 5339, and the lock member 5336. FIG. FIG. 65A shows a state in which the drive gear 335b is rotated clockwise from the state of FIG. 64B and the rear end portion of the lever member 4340 slides with the curved wall portion 5336a1 of the lock member 5336. FIG. 65 (b) shows a state in which the drive gear 335b is rotated clockwise from the state of FIG. 65 (a) and the rear end portion of the lever member 4340 is in contact with the protruding portion 5336a2 of the lock member 5336. Is done.

  In addition, when the eccentric cam member 5333 further rotates from the state shown in FIG. 65B, the rear end portion of the lever member 4340 is pushed up, and the upper side surface of the lock member 5336 comes into contact with the lower side surface of the lever member 4340. As a result, the swing of the lever member 4340 is restricted.

  In the present embodiment, the lever member 4340 is moved up and down by alternately repeating the state shown in FIG. 64B and the state shown in FIG. 65A (the drive gear 335b is alternately switched and rotated). The swinging operation member 310 (see FIG. 54) disposed at the distal end portion of the lever member 4340 can be swung back and forth (swinging).

  In this case, as shown in FIGS. 64B and 65A, the unlocking cam member 5339 does not come into contact with the locking member 5336 (the unlocking portion 5339c of the unlocking cam member is separated from the locking member 5336). Therefore, it is possible to prevent resistance from being applied to the lock release cam member 5339 from the lock member 5336, and to stabilize the rotation state of the eccentric cam member 5333.

  As illustrated in FIG. 65B, the rear end portion of the lever member 4340 pushes up the protruding portion 5336 a 2 of the lock member 5336, so that the lock member 5336 rotates in a direction away from the lever member 4340. When the eccentric cam member 6333 is further rotated, the rear end portion of the lever member 4340 moves above the upper end portion of the lock member 5336, so that the lock member 5336 is restored by the biasing force of the torsion spring SP41 (see FIG. 45). Thus, the movement of the lever member 4340 can be restricted on the upper surface of the lock member 5336 (see FIG. 63A).

  In addition, the load is applied from the lever member 4340 to the lock member 5336 during a short period in which the rear end portion of the lever member 4340 is in contact with the protruding portion 5336a2, and thus the reaction force of the torsion spring SP41 (see FIG. 45). The locking member 5336 can enter the lower part of the lever member 4340 (see FIG. 61B), and a large speed can be secured. Therefore, the movement of the lever member 4340 by the lock member 5336 can be reliably regulated.

  In the state shown in FIG. 65A, a case is considered where a load is applied in a direction in which the player lifts the lever member 4340 upward. In this case, a downward load is applied from the lever member 4340 to the cam portion 5333c of the eccentric cam member 6333, and the eccentric cam member 6333 is rotated clockwise. In the present embodiment, since the eccentric cam member 6333 and the unlocking cam member 5339 are operated synchronously, when the rotation of the unlocking cam member 5339 is restricted, the rotation of the eccentric cam member 6333 is also restricted, and the lever member 4340 The eccentric cam member 6333 may be damaged by the applied load.

  On the other hand, in this embodiment, when the lever member 4340 is lifted from the state of FIG. 65A and the rear end is lowered, the unlocking cam is accompanied by the clockwise rotation of the eccentric cam member 6333. Since the member 5339 rotates clockwise, the release portion 5339c of the lock release cam member 5339 moves in a direction away from the lock member 5336. Therefore, there is no possibility that the lock release cam member 5339 contacts the lock member 5336 and the rotation is restricted, so that the eccentric cam member 6333 can be prevented from being damaged by a load applied from the lever member 4340.

  In the present embodiment, the cam portion 5333c of the eccentric cam member 6333 and the release portion 5339c of the lock release cam member 5339 are different in the thickness direction (FIG. 65 (a) perpendicular to the paper surface) (FIG. 65 (a)). (Position where there is no interference in the direction parallel to the paper surface). Therefore, even if the cam portion 5333c of the eccentric cam member 6333 and the release portion 5339c of the lock release cam member 5339 rotate in the approaching direction in FIG. 65 (a) from the state of FIG. Since they pass each other, damage to the eccentric cam member 6333 and the unlocking cam member 5339 can be prevented.

  Next, an operation device 7300 according to the seventh embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. In the first embodiment, the case where the gear damper 338 constantly applies resistance to the lever member 340 has been described. However, the operation device 7300 in the seventh embodiment is limited to when the peeling member 7350 is peeled off from the lever member 7340. A case where resistance is applied from the gear damper 7347 to the lever member 7340 will be described. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the part same as each embodiment mentioned above, and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  66 (a) and 66 (b) are partial cross-sectional views of the operation device 7300 in the seventh embodiment along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 17 (a). 66A shows a state in which the peeling member 7350 is attracted to the lever member 7340. In FIG. 66B, the swing of the peeling member 7350 is restricted by the lock member 336, and the lever member 7340 is peeled off. A state in which the member 7350 is peeled off is shown.

  As shown in FIG. 66A, the lever member 7340 includes a gear damper 7347 disposed inside the main body member 341. The gear damper 7347 is meshed with a gear portion 7351 a formed in a gear tooth shape along a circle centering on an insertion hole 352 formed in the main body member 7351 of the peeling member 7350.

  In this case, as shown in FIG. 66 (a), when the lever member 7340 and the peeling member 7350 are fixed by suction and swing as a unit, the relative positional relationship between the gear damper 7347 and the gear portion 7351a does not change. The member 7340 does not receive the viscous resistance of the gear damper 7347.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 66B, in the state where the peeling member 7350 is restricted from swinging by the lock member 336 and pulled off from the lever member 7340, the lever member 7340 swings (the player is necked). When the swing operation member 310 (see FIG. 54) is operated), the relative positional relationship between the gear damper 7347 and the gear portion 7351a changes, so that the viscous resistance of the gear damper 7347 is given to the lever member 7340.

  Therefore, the viscous resistance of the gear damper 7347 is applied to the lever member 7340 only when the player gives an overload to the swing operation member 310 (see FIG. 54) to the extent that the lever member 7340 is peeled off from the peeling member 7350. can do. Thereby, it is possible to change the feeling of operation when the player operates the swing operation member 310 and prompt the player to use the swing operation member 310 appropriately.

  For example, the operation resistance when operating the swing operation member 310 in the state of FIG. 66 (b) becomes excessively large, which makes it difficult for the player to perform the operation, resulting in stress. If the lever member 7340 and the peeling member 7350 are returned to the state of being adsorbed and fixed, the operation resistance becomes small and the player can easily operate. Therefore, a player who tries to avoid stress avoids overloading the swing operation member 310. Thereby, it can suppress that the operation device 7300 is destroyed.

  Next, an eighth embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. In each of the above embodiments, the case where the lock members 336, 2336, 4336, and 5336 are pivotally supported by the inner case members 330, 3330, 4330, and 5330 has been described. However, the operation device 8300 in the eighth embodiment includes the lock member 8336. However, the inner case member 8330 is configured to be slidable as the lever member 340 swings. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the part same as each embodiment mentioned above, and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  67 (a) and 67 (b) are cross-sectional views of the operation device 8300 in the eighth embodiment along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 17 (a). FIG. 17A illustrates the operation device 300 according to the first embodiment, but the appearance is the same as that of the operation device 8300 according to the present embodiment, and is used instead. The same applies to FIGS. 68 and 69. 67A illustrates a state in which the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the upward position, and FIG. 67B illustrates a state in which the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the downward position. .

  As shown in FIG. 67 (a), the inner case member 8330 includes a plurality of long hole-shaped slide holes 8331i formed in the left cover member 8331 along an arc centered on the lever support shaft 331d1. The slide hole 8331i is formed in the same position as the left cover member 8331 at a position corresponding to a left cover member 8331 and a right cover member (not shown) disposed as a pair.

  The slide hole 8331i is composed of a pair of long holes, the inner surface is formed of a smooth surface, the first slide hole 8331i1 disposed on the side away from the lever support shaft 331d1, and the inner surface of the surface is smooth. And a second slide hole 8331i2 disposed mainly on the lever support shaft 331d1 side of the first slide hole 8331i1.

  The second slide hole 8331i2 is a long hole into which the wedge-shaped portion 8336f1 of the shaft portion 8336f of the lock member 8336 is inserted. The frictional resistance between the wedge-shaped portion 8336f1 and the second slide hole 8331i2 changes depending on the posture of the lock member 8336.

  The lock member 8336 is pivotally supported by a plate-like slide plate 8370 that is disposed in a manner that slides along the inner surface of the left cover member 8331. The lock member 8336 is a cylindrical portion that is inserted into the shaft support hole 336b and includes a shaft portion 8336f that passes through the slide plate 8370, and is supported by the slide plate 8370 through the shaft portion 8336f.

  The shaft portion 8336f includes a wedge-shaped portion 8336f1 that is a part of the axial direction and is inserted through the second slide hole 8331i2. The wedge-shaped portion 8336f1 has a pair of first side surfaces 8336f1a formed in a mode (see FIG. 67 (a)) that is separated from the side surface extending in the longitudinal direction of the second slide hole 8331i2 by a predetermined distance. In the state of being opposed to each other, it mainly includes a side surface extending in the longitudinal direction of the second slide hole 8331i2 and a pair of second side surfaces 8336f1b (see FIG. 68 (a)), each side surface being slightly It is configured in a curved substantially rhombus shape.

  As shown in FIG. 67 (a), the first side surface 8336f1a is formed in a curved surface shape (having the same radius of curvature) along the curved shape of the second slide hole 8331i2 in a state where the lock member 8336 is positioned on the release side. The Further, as shown in FIG. 68A, the second side surface 8336f1b has a curved surface shape (having the same radius of curvature) along the curved shape of the second slide hole 8331i2 in a state where the lock member 8336 is located on the fixed side. It is formed.

  In a state where the lock member 8336 is disposed on the release position side, the first side surface 8336f1a does not contact the second slide hole 8331i2, and a predetermined distance gap is formed, so that the lever member 340 moves following the swing of the lever member 340. It is possible to suppress the movement resistance of the sliding plate 8370.

  FIG. 67B shows a state where the lock member 8336 is rotated from the release side position toward the fixed side position. Even in this state, a slight gap is left between the wedge-shaped portion 8336f1 and the second slide hole 8331i2. That is, even if the lock member 8336 is slightly rotated from the release side position, the movement resistance of the slide plate 8370 does not increase. Therefore, the swing resistance of the lever member 340 can be suppressed, and the player swings the operation device 8300. It can suppress impairing the operational feeling at the time of dynamic operation.

  On the other hand, if the lock member 8336 is kept rotated from the release side position toward the fixed side position by a predetermined amount, the period until the lock member 8336 is arranged on the fixed side at a predetermined timing is shortened. can do. Accordingly, the lock member 8336 can be easily placed on the fixed side at a desired position.

  The slide plate 8370 includes a projecting portion 8371 that is inserted into the slide hole 8331i and projecting in an arc shape in cross section, a magnet portion 8372 that is disposed to face the peeling member 350 and is formed of a magnetic material, and a lock member 8336. A drive motor 8373 disposed on the slide plate 8370 in a manner in which the rotation shaft and the drive shaft are parallel, and a drive gear 8374 that rotates the drive motor 8373 and meshes with the gear portion 336d of the lock member 8336. Prepare mainly.

  The protruding portion 8371 is formed in an arc shape centered on the lever support shaft 331d1. Thereby, it can suppress that the convex part 8371 is caught in the latching recessed part 8331i2.

  The magnet portion 8372 is formed of a magnetic material and is bonded to the peeling member 350. As the lever member 340 is swung in a state where the magnet member 8372 is bonded to the peeling member 350, the slide plate 8370 slides along the slide hole 8331i.

  The drive motor 8373 drives the drive gear 8374 so that the lock member 8336 can be arranged at the release side position (see FIG. 67A) and the fixed side position (see FIG. 68A). Drive means. Since the drive motor 8373 is disposed on the slide plate 8370, the drive motor 8373 slides together with the slide plate 8370.

  The peeling member 350 includes a magnetic sensor MC1 that detects magnetism along the lower side surface. The magnet sensor 8372 is attracted to the peeling member 350 by the magnetic sensor MC1, or the peeling member 350 is separated from the magnet portion 8372. It is possible to detect whether or not Hereinafter, an example of control of the lock member 8336 will be described.

  Here, in the state of FIG. 67 (a), the detection piece 343b (see FIGS. 23 (b) and 16) is disposed in the gap of the second sensor member 325a2 (see FIG. 23 (b)), so that the lever It is detected that the member 340 is disposed at the end of the swing range. In the state of FIG. 67 (b), the detection piece 343b is disposed in the gap of the first sensor member 325a1 (see FIG. 23 (b)), so that the lever member 340 is disposed at the end of the swing range. Is detected.

  Therefore, when the lever member 340 is repeatedly switched between the state shown in FIG. 67 (a) and the state shown in FIG. 67 (b) when the eccentric cam member 333 is stopped, the player moves the swing operation member 310. It can be detected that the operation is repeated up and down within the maximum movable range (signals are output from the sensor members 325a1 and 325a2 to the main controller). In this case, the eccentric cam member 333 may be damaged by the lever member 340 (peeling member 350) repeatedly colliding with the eccentric cam member 333.

  In the aspect in which the lock member 336 is pivotally supported by the inner case member 330 as in the first embodiment, the lever member 340 in a stopped state can be fixed by the lock member 336, but the lever member in the middle of swinging It was difficult to fix 340 with the lock member 336.

  On the other hand, in this embodiment, the lock member 8336 can move following the lever member 340, so that the rocking of the lever member 340 is stopped by the lock member 8336 even during the rocking operation of the lever member 340. It becomes possible to make it. Therefore, when it is detected that the player repeatedly operates the swing operation member 310 up and down within the maximum movable range, the lock member 8336 is activated to prevent the eccentric cam member 333 from being damaged. Can do. This will be described below.

  68 (a) and 68 (b) are cross-sectional views of the operation device 8300 along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 17 (a). 68 (a) shows a state in which the swing operation member 310 is disposed between the upward position and the downward position, and FIG. 68 (b) shows a predetermined amount or more from the state of FIG. 68 (a). The load is applied downward to the swing operation member 310 and the lever member 340 is pulled off from the peeling member 350.

  As shown in FIG. 68A, by rotating the drive gear 8374 and disposing the lock member 8336 on the fixed side, the second side surface 8336f1b of the wedge-shaped portion 8336f1 is brought into contact with both side surfaces of the second slide hole 7332i2. Thus, the sliding movement of the slide plate 8370 is stopped by the frictional force. In this state, the lock member 8336 locks the peeling member 350 downward with respect to the operation of pushing down the swing operation member 310, and the operation of pushing up the swing operation member 310 through the magnet portion 8372. The slide plate 8370 locks the peeling member 350 upward. Therefore, the lever member 340 maintains its posture in the state shown in FIG. 68A even if a slight load is applied in the vertical direction.

  In the state of FIG. 68 (a), when a player applies a load of a predetermined amount or more (more than the adsorption force between the magnet member 354 of the peeling member 350 and the lever member 340) to the swing operation member 310, The peeling member 350 is peeled off from the lever member 340 (see FIG. 68B). Thereby, a load of a predetermined amount or more given to the swing operation member 310 by the player is transmitted to the lock member 8336, so that the lock member 8336 can be prevented from being damaged.

  As shown in FIG. 68 (b), the slide plate 8370 is fixed in the middle of its movement range (in the middle of the movement range of the lever member 340), so that the player performs an operation of lifting the swing operation member 310. Even so, it is possible to prevent the lever member 340 from contacting the eccentric cam member 333 by contacting the magnet portion 8372 before the lever member 340 contacts the eccentric cam member 333. This can prevent the eccentric cam member 333 from being damaged.

  Also, as shown in FIG. 68 (b), the angle range in which the lever member 340 can be swung (range above the peeling member 350) is narrowed, so the player moves the swing operation member 310 upward. By doing so, the momentum applied to the lever member 340 can be suppressed, and the load generated when the lever member 340 contacts the peeling member 350 from above can be suppressed.

  Thereby, since the load generated in the lock member 8336 due to the reaction when the lever member 340 is brought into contact with the peeling member 350 can be suppressed, the driving force of the drive motor 8373 that drives the lock member 8336 can be suppressed. it can.

  69 (a) and 69 (b) are cross-sectional views of the operation device 8300 along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 17 (a). In FIG. 69 (a), the lever member 340 and the peeling member 350 that are swung by the rotation of the eccentric cam member 333 are illustrated in phantom lines, and the peeling member is disposed in a state where the lock member 8336 is disposed on the release side. The lever member 340 and the peeling member 350 in a state where 350 is pulled off from the magnet portion 8372 are illustrated by solid lines, and in FIG. 69B, the lock member 8336 is moved from the state illustrated by solid lines in FIG. A state of being arranged on the fixed side is illustrated.

  As shown in FIG. 69A, when the lever member 340 and the peeling member 350 swing due to the rotation of the eccentric cam member 333, the slide plate 8370 also slides together with the peeling member 350. At this time, if a load is applied to the swing operation member 310 downward at a high speed, the slide plate 8370 cannot follow the moving speed of the peeling member 350 (decelerated by the frictional resistance with the slide hole 8331i), and the peeling is caused. The member 350 and the slide plate 8370 can be separated (see the solid line portion in FIG. 69 (a)).

  In this case, when the lock member 8336 is disposed on the release side, the slide plate 8370 is not fixed, and the player performs an operation of lifting the swing operation member 310 upward, the eccentric member 333 contacts the eccentric cam member 333. By contacting, the eccentric cam member 333 may be damaged.

  On the other hand, in this embodiment, the peeling member 350 includes a magnetic sensor MC1 that detects that the magnet portion 8372 has been peeled off from the peeling member 350. When the magnetic sensor MC1 detects that the peeling member 350 and the magnet portion 8372 are separated, immediately, the lock member 8336 is controlled to be disposed on the fixed side (see FIG. 69 (b)), thereby peeling. The upper surface of the lock member 8336 can be brought into contact with the lower surface of the member 350.

  As a result, even if the player applies an upward load to the swing operation member 310, the peeling member 350 comes into contact with the lock member 8336 before the peeling member 350 comes into contact with the eccentric cam member 333. Since the movement is stopped, the eccentric cam member 333 can be prevented from being damaged. This effect is an effect that is exhibited only when there is a configuration in which the lock member 8336 slides together with the peeling member 350 as in the present embodiment.

  That is, when the lock member 336 is pivotally supported by the inner case member 330 as in the first embodiment, depending on the phase of the eccentric cam member 333 (see, for example, FIG. 24B), the lock member 336 is fixed to the fixed side. The upper surface of the eccentric cam member 333 may protrude toward the peeling member 350 than the upper surface of the lock member 336. If an upward load is applied to the swing operation member 310 in this state, The peeling member 350 comes into contact with the eccentric cam member 333. Therefore, the effect of preventing the eccentric cam member 333 from being damaged is not sufficient.

  On the other hand, according to this embodiment, the peeling member 350 and the lock member 8336 move in the same manner by the rotation of the eccentric cam member 333 (the peeling member 350 is in contact with both the eccentric cam member 333 and the magnet portion 8372). Therefore, immediately after the peeling member 350 is peeled off from the magnet portion 8372, the lock member 8336 is disposed on the fixed side, so that the upper surface of the lock member 8336 is made to be closer to the peeling member 350 than the eccentric cam member 333. You can get closer. Thereby, the lock member 8336 can be brought into contact with the peeling member 350 before the eccentric cam member 333, and the peeling member 350 can be prevented from colliding with the eccentric cam member 333.

  When the magnetic sensor MC1 detects that the magnet portion 8372 and the peeling member 350 are separated, it is preferable to stop the rotation of the eccentric cam member 333. If the eccentric cam member 333 continues to rotate and moves so that the maximum diameter portion approaches the peeling member 350, the maximum diameter portion of the eccentric cam member 333 may exceed the lock member 8336 and approach the peeling member 350. Because.

  Next, a ninth embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. In each of the above embodiments, the case where the lever members 340, 2340, 3340, and 4340 are all rigid has been described. However, the operation device 9300 according to the ninth embodiment uses a coil spring as a swing operation member 310 of the lever member 9340. The elastic connection members CS91 and CS92 are provided. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the part same as each embodiment mentioned above, and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  FIGS. 70A and 70B are side views of the operation device 9300 in the ninth embodiment. 70A illustrates a state in which the swing operation member 310 is disposed at the downward position, and FIG. 70B illustrates the swing operation member 310 downward in the state illustrated in FIG. 70A. A state where a load of a predetermined amount or more is applied and the elastic connecting members CS91 and CS92 are bent is illustrated.

  As shown in FIGS. 70 (a) and 70 (b), the lever member 9340 includes coil spring-like elastic coupling members CS91 and CS92 disposed in the vicinity of the swing operation member 310 in a pair.

  In a state where the player does not apply a load to the swing operation member 310, the state where the elastic connecting members CS91 and CS92 are contracted to substantially the same length is maintained. In order to maintain the state of FIG. 70A (the state in which both are contracted to substantially the same length) while supporting the weight of the swing operation member 310, the elastic coefficient of the upper elastic connecting member CS91 is lowered. The elastic coupling member CS91 is set higher than the elastic coefficient of the side elastic coupling member CS91, and the lengths of both are substantially the same.

  When the load applied by the player to the swing operation member 310 is smaller than a predetermined amount, the relative positional relationship between the lever member 9340 and the swing operation member 310 is maintained by the elastic connecting members CS91 and CS92.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 70 (b), when a load of a predetermined amount or more is applied downward to the swing operation member 310, the elastic coupling members CS91 and CS92 change in expansion / contraction state (upper elastic coupling member). The relative positional relationship between the swing operation member 310 and the lever member 9340 is broken and the load is applied to the swing operation member 310 because the length of the CS 91 is longer than that of the lower elastic connecting member CS92. It is possible to suppress the load from being directly transmitted to the rear part of the lever member 340 (the peeling member 350 and the like, see FIG. 16). In other words, the load applied to the swing operation member 310 can be consumed for the deformation of the elastic coupling members CS91 and CS92. Therefore, it is possible to suppress damage to members inside the outer case member 320 (for example, the eccentric cam member 333, see FIG. 10) due to the load applied to the swing operation member 310.

  Next, a tenth embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 71 to 74. In each of the above embodiments, the case where the eccentric cam members 333, 2333, 4333, and 5333 are disposed behind the lever support shaft 331d1 and below the lever members 340, 2340, and 4340 has been described. In the operation device 10300, the eccentric cam member 2333 is disposed behind the lever support shaft 331d1 and above the lever member 340. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the part same as each embodiment mentioned above, and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  71 (a), 71 (b), 72 (a), and 72 (b) are cross-sectional views of the operation device 10300 in the tenth embodiment along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 17 (a). FIG. 17A illustrates the operation device 300 according to the first embodiment, but the appearance is the same as that of the operation device 10300 according to the present embodiment, which is used instead. 73 and 74 are similarly substituted.

  71A illustrates a state in which the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the upward position. In FIG. 71B, the eccentric cam member 2333 is changed from the state in FIG. 71A to FIG. ) Shows a state rotated counterclockwise by a predetermined angle θ101. In FIG. 72 (a), the eccentric cam member 2333 is rotated counterclockwise from the angle θ101 in FIG. 71 (a). FIG. 72 (b) shows a state in which the swing operation member 310 is disposed at the upward position.

  As shown in FIG. 71 (a), the operation device 10300 includes a box-shaped inner case member 10330 having a rectangular cross section, and the inner case member 10330 supports the eccentric cam member 2333 behind the lever support shaft 331d1. A drive gear 10335 that is provided with an eccentric cam shaft 10331i and is rotationally driven by a drive motor is disposed at a position away from the eccentric cam shaft 10331i by a predetermined distance, and the eccentric cam member 2333 is rotationally driven by the rotation of the drive gear 10335. Is done.

  In this embodiment, the torsion spring SP101 formed of an elastic material generates a biasing force that biases the lever member 340 in a direction to push the swing operation member 310 downward.

  As a result, the lever member 340 is constantly biased in such a manner that the lever member 340 is pressed against the eccentric cam member 2333, so that the lever member 340 can be operated following the rotation of the eccentric cam member 2333.

  In this embodiment, since the eccentric cam member 2333 described in the second embodiment is used as a means for swinging the lever member 340, the player pushes down the swing operation member 310, so that the rear end of the lever member 340 Even if the portion is lifted and a load is generated from the lever member 340 to the eccentric cam member 2333, the cam member 2333b can be prevented from being damaged by sliding between the main body member 2333a and the cam member 2333b.

  Here, even if the cam member 2333b can slide with respect to the main body member 2333a, when the extending direction of the rib portion 2333b4 of the cam member 2333b and the upper surface of the lever member 340 come into contact with each other in a vertical posture, the lever member 340 From the other end acts in the radial direction of the eccentric cam member 2333 (does not escape in the circumferential direction), and the cam member 2333b may be damaged.

  On the other hand, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 71 (a), the portion P101 that contacts the upper surface of the lever member 340 in the state in which the swing operation member 310 is disposed in the upward position is the eccentric cam member 2333. The rib portion 2333b4 is shifted by a predetermined angle (a position shifted by a predetermined angle clockwise in FIG. 71).

  Accordingly, even when a load is applied from the lever member 340 to the eccentric cam member 2333 in the state of FIG. 71A, a load is applied in the circumferential direction of the eccentric cam member 2333, and the cam member 2333b is moved to the main body member 2333a. Can be slid. Therefore, the eccentric cam member 2333 can be prevented from being damaged.

  In the present embodiment, since the eccentric cam member 2333 is disposed on the rear upper side of the lever support shaft 331d1, the lever member 340 is separated from the eccentric cam member 333 when the player performs an erroneous operation of lifting the swing operation member 310. Move in the direction you want. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the eccentric cam member 2333 from being damaged by performing an erroneous operation of lifting the lever member 340.

  In the state shown in FIG. 71 (a), a cylindrical member is disposed below the peeling member 350, and the lever member 340 can no longer be swung (the posture shown in FIG. End position).

  When the eccentric cam member 2333 rotates counterclockwise from the state shown in FIG. 71B to the state shown in FIG. 72A, the swing operation member 310 swings upward. When the eccentric cam member 2333 rotates in the reverse direction (clockwise) from the state shown in FIG. 72A to the state shown in FIG. 71B, the swing operation member 310 swings downward. In this way, by repeatedly rotating the eccentric cam member 2333 clockwise and rotating it counterclockwise, the swing operation member 310 can be reciprocally swung up and down (swinging). Thereby, a state advantageous to a player and a disadvantageous state can be notified. In addition, the player can visually recognize the operation device 10300 as an effect device.

  In the case where the swing operation member is reciprocally swung up and down by the reciprocating rotation of the eccentric cam member 2333, it is preferable that the eccentric cam member 2333 is disposed behind the lever support shaft 331d1 as in the present embodiment. The lever support shaft 331d1 can be easily arranged on the player side (front side), so that the swing angle of the swing operation member 310 can be improved even when the circumferential lengths of the lever support shafts 331d1 of the notches 331c1 and 332c1 are the same. It is because it can enlarge. In this case, the amount of movement of the swing operation member 310 in the vertical direction can be kept large, and the effect of the swing operation member 310 can be improved.

  In the state shown in FIG. 72B, the lock member 336 is disposed on the fixed side, and the movement of the peeling member 350 is restricted by the lock member 336. Therefore, the lever member 340 and the peeling member 350 are prevented from swinging when a small load, such as a player placing his / her hand on the swing operation member 310, is applied.

  73 (a), 73 (b), and 74 are cross-sectional views of the operation device 10300 taken along line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 17 (a). In FIG. 73 (a), the swing operation member 310 is disposed at the upward position, the lock member 336 is disposed at the fixed side, and the eccentric cam member 2333 is retracted to the opposite side of the lever member 340. 73 (b) shows a state where the lever member 340 is peeled off from the peeling member 350 from the state of FIG. 73 (a) and is in contact with the eccentric cam member 2333. In FIG. From the state of FIG. 73 (b), the state where the eccentric cam member 2333 is rotated clockwise by a predetermined angle and the lever member 340 is swung clockwise is shown, and the state of FIG. 73 (b) is an imaginary line. Is illustrated.

  In the present embodiment, when the lock member 336 is disposed on the fixed side and the movement of the lever member 340 is restricted, the eccentric cam member 2333 is controlled to move to a position away from the lever member 340 accordingly. . As a result, when a load is applied to the swing operation member 310 and the lever member 340 is pulled away from the peeling member 350 and moved, the lever member 340 comes into contact with the cylindrical portion 2333b1 side of the eccentric cam member 2333 (FIG. 73). (See (b)), it is possible to prevent the cam portion 2333b2 of the eccentric cam member 2333 from being damaged.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, since the lever member 340 is brought into contact with the eccentric cam member 2333 after the lever member 340 is pulled off from the peeling member 350, the load applied to the swing operation member 310 by the player is reduced. A part is used to peel the lever member 340 from the peeling member 350. Therefore, the load applied to the eccentric cam member 2333 by the lever member 340 can be reduced.

  When the player applies a load in the push-down direction to the swing operation member 310, the lever member 340 does not move until the lever member 340 is peeled off from the peeling member 350, so a reaction force is transmitted to the player ( The swing resistance of the swing operation member 310 is increased). Thus, in order to push down the swing operation member 310, the player loads a load on the swing operation member 310 that is a predetermined amount or more (more than the attractive force between the magnet member 354 of the peeling member 350 and the lever member 340). Since it is necessary (because it becomes heavy), it is possible to give the player a feeling of operation.

  As shown in FIG. 74, according to the present embodiment, after the lever member 340 is peeled off from the peeling member 350, the eccentric cam member 2333 is rotated to swing the lever member 340 and to swing the head. The member 310 can be reciprocated up and down (turning operation).

  Thereby, it is possible to make it difficult for the player to recognize the change in the internal state in which the lever member 340 has been peeled off from the peeling member 350. Therefore, it is possible to suppress anxiety that the player feels when performing the destructive operation of peeling the lever member 340 from the peeling member 350.

  Further, by swinging the lever member 340 after the swing operation member 310 is pushed down, the reaction force can be returned to the player's hand holding the swing operation member 310, and the player feels the operation feeling. Can be granted.

  On the other hand, after the lever member 340 is peeled off from the peeling member 350, the eccentric cam member 2333 rotates at a high speed, so that the lever member 340 reciprocally swings at a high speed. Thereby, it is possible to notify the player of the abnormality. For example, the character “weak” can be displayed on the liquid crystal display device of the pachinko machine 10 to notify the player that the load applied to the swing operation member 310 is too strong.

  That is, in this embodiment, after the lever member 340 is peeled off from the peeling member 350, the lever member 340 is reciprocated up and down in accordance with the rotation of the eccentric cam member 2333. It can be used to give a feeling of return operation, and can also be used to notify the player of an abnormality. In the former case, there is an effect of promoting the operation performed by the player, and in the latter case, there is an effect of suppressing the operation performed by the player. This state can be switched depending on the rotational speed of the eccentric cam member 2333.

  Therefore, according to the present embodiment, by switching the rotational speed of the eccentric cam member 2333 after the lever member 340 is peeled off from the peeling member 350, the player can promote the predetermined operation or perform the predetermined operation. It can be suppressed.

  Next, an eleventh embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. In each of the above embodiments, the case where the pushing operation of the lens member 317 and the swing operation of the swing operation member 310 are not structurally related has been described. However, the operation device 11300 in the eleventh embodiment includes the swing operation member 11310. When the lens member 317 is pushed, the resistance at the time of swinging increases. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the part same as each embodiment mentioned above, and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  75 (a) and 75 (b) are partial cross-sectional views of the swing operation member 11310 and the lever member 340 in the eleventh embodiment along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. 17 (a). FIG. 17A illustrates the operation device 300 according to the first embodiment, but the appearance is the same as that of the operation device 11300 according to the present embodiment, which is used instead. 75A shows a no-load state in which the lens member 317 is not subjected to a pushing load. In FIG. 75B, the lens member 317 is pushed in from the state of FIG. 75A. The state is illustrated.

  As shown in FIG. 75 (a), in the swing operation member 11310, a through hole is formed on the central axis of the pressing member 11366b of the vibration device 11366, and the radial direction of the shaft support rod 363 extends from the bottom wall of the bobbin member 11366a. A pair of through holes are formed to open toward both sides. Therefore, a through hole that passes through the vibration device 11366 and penetrates from the vibration member 11314 to the shaft support rod 363 is formed. In addition, the space | interval of the opening of the bobbin member 11366a is made shorter than the outer diameter of the torsion spring SP2 wound around the shaft support bar 363.

  The vibration member 11314 includes a rotation stop portion 11314g inserted through the through hole of the pressing member 11366b.

  The rotation stop portion 11314g is a rod-like portion that is inserted into the through hole of the pressing member 11366b, and includes a sandwiching portion 11314g1 that is inserted into the pair of through holes of the bobbin member 11366a and is formed into a pair of leaf springs. .

  The sandwiching portion 11314g1 is arranged at a position separated from the torsion spring SP2 in the no-load state (see FIG. 75A), and in the state where the lens member 317 is pushed in (see FIG. 75B), the torsion spring. It is arranged at a position to sandwich SP2. Here, the sandwiching portion 11314g1 is formed in a leaf spring shape, and the sandwiching portion 11314g1 holds the shaft support bar 363 together with the torsion spring SP2 in the state of FIG. 75B, so the shaft support bar 363 of the swing operation member 310 is held. It is possible to increase the resistance of the swinging motion centering on. That is, by performing the operation of pushing the lens member 317, the swing resistance of the swing operation member 310 with respect to the lever member 340 can be increased.

  In this case, during the operation of the vibration device 11366, the vibration of the vibration device 11366 is consumed as a driving force for swinging around the pivot rod 363 of the swing operation portion, and the vibration direction of the vibration device 11366 transmitted to the player (see FIG. It can suppress that the vibration component of 75 (a) up-down direction) reduces.

  In addition, the vibration component of the vibration device 11366 transmitted to the player is ensured while the swinging operation member 310 is restrained from swinging only when the player pushes the lens member 317, and the player removes the lens member 317 from the lens member 317. In a no-load state in which the hand is released, the swing operation member 310 can be swung by the vibration of the vibration device 11366.

  Thus, the same vibration device 11366 has the effect of securing the vibration component transmitted to the player who pushes the lens member 317 and the effect of intensely swinging the swing operation member 11310 in the no-load state and attracting the player's attention. Both can be achieved.

  Next, a twelfth embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. In the eleventh embodiment, the case where the resistance of the swing operation of the swing operation member 11310 is increased by the pushing operation of the lens member 317 has been described. However, the operation device 12300 in the twelfth embodiment pushes the lens member 317. As a result, the regulating rod 365 is pressed against the lower end of the angle regulating hole 361d of the swinging member 360. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the part same as each embodiment mentioned above, and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  FIGS. 76A and 76B are partial cross-sectional views of the swing operation member 12310 and the lever member 340 in the twelfth embodiment along the line XVIIIa-XVIIIa in FIG. FIG. 17A illustrates the operation device 300 according to the first embodiment, but the appearance is the same as that of the operation device 12300 according to the present embodiment, which is used instead. FIG. 76A shows a no-load state in which the lens member 317 is not subjected to a pressing load. In FIG. 76B, the lens member 317 is pushed in from the state of FIG. 76A. The state is illustrated.

  As shown in FIG. 76A, the swing operation member 12310 mainly includes an intermediate frame member 12312 and a vibration member 12314.

  The intermediate frame member 12312 has a larger opening at the center of the bottom 312a than the intermediate frame member 312 (see FIG. 13) of the first embodiment.

  The vibration member 12314 includes a bar-shaped pressing rod portion 12314g that extends downward from the main body portion 314a at the center opening of the intermediate frame member 12312 along the vibration device 366. The pressing rod portion 12314g extends to a position where the tip can abut against the regulating rod 365.

  The pressing rod portion 12314g is disposed at a position in contact with the regulation rod 365 in the no-load state (see FIG. 76A), and in the state in which the lens member 317 is pushed in (see FIG. 76B), the regulation rod. It is pressed against 365. Therefore, by pushing the lens member 317, the swing operation member 12310 is rotated clockwise by the distance that the pressing rod portion 12314g moves (the distance between the main body portion 314a and the pressing member 366b), and the shaft support rod 365 is pressed against the end of the angle regulating hole 361d. In this state, since the shaft support bar 365 can be fixed to the angle restricting hole 361d, the swinging motion of the swing operation member 12310 around the shaft support bar 363 can be suppressed. That is, by performing the operation of pushing the lens member 317, the swing resistance of the swing operation member 12310 with respect to the lever member 340 can be increased.

  In this case, during the operation of the vibration device 366, the vibration of the vibration device 366 is consumed as a driving force for swinging around the shaft support rod 363 of the swing operation portion, and the vibration direction of the vibration device 366 transmitted to the player (see FIG. It is possible to suppress the reduction of the vibration component (76 (a) in the vertical direction).

  Further, the vibration component of the vibration device 366 transmitted to the player is ensured while suppressing the swing of the swing operation member 12310 only when the player pushes the lens member 317, and the player removes the lens member 317 from the lens member 317. In a no-load state in which the hand is released, the swing operation member 12310 can be swung by the vibration of the vibration device 366.

  As a result, the same vibration device 366 has the effect of ensuring the vibration component transmitted to the player pushing the lens member 317 and the effect of making the swinging operation member 12310 violently move and attract the player's attention in the no-load state. Both can be achieved.

  Although the present invention has been described based on the above embodiment, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications can be easily made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. It can be guessed.

  In each of the above-described embodiments, a part or all of the configuration in one embodiment may be combined with or replaced with a part or all of the configuration in the other embodiments to form another embodiment.

  In each of the above embodiments, the case where the main body member 341 of the lever member 340 is fixed in shape has been described, but the present invention is not necessarily limited thereto. For example, it may be partially extensible in the longitudinal direction. In this case, the main body member 341 is contracted so that the swing operation member 310 can be accommodated rearward, so that the swing operation member 310 is disposed in a downward position and protrudes forward of the pachinko machine 10, so that the packaging box When protruding from the top, the front / rear width of the swing operation member 310 can be reduced to a size that fits into the packing box.

  In the sixth embodiment, the case has been described where the gear damper 6347 generates viscous resistance only when the peeling member 6350 is peeled off from the lever member 6340. However, the present invention is not necessarily limited thereto. For example, the gear damper may generate a viscous resistance only when the lever member 6340 and the peeling member 6350 are fixed by suction. In this case, resistance corresponding to the operation speed when the player operates the swing operation member 310 can be returned to the player, and the operational feeling can be improved.

  In the fourth embodiment, when the longest diameter portion of the eccentric cam member 4333 is in contact with the lock receiving member 4350 (when the circumscribed circle of the rotation locus of the eccentric cam member 4333 is in contact with the lock receiving member 4350), Although the case where the upper end of the lock member 4336 and the lower end part of the lock receiving member 4350 are in contact with each other has been described, the present invention is not necessarily limited thereto. For example, the lock receiving member 4350 may be controlled to swing at the upper end of the lock member 4336 at a position spaced upward from the eccentric cam member 4333.

  In this case, when the lock receiving member 4350 is swung by the rotational drive of the eccentric cam member 4333, the lock receiving member 4350 is not restricted by the lock member 4336, and therefore the eccentric cam member 4333 is rotationally driven in one direction. By doing so, it is possible to perform a turning operation that causes the swing operation member 310 to reciprocate up and down.

  Further, for example, when the intermediate portion between the longest diameter portion of the eccentric cam member 4333 and the eccentric cam shaft 331d2 is in contact with the lock receiving member 4350, the lock receiving member 4350 is restricted from swinging by the lock member 4336. But it ’s okay.

  In this case, by rotating the eccentric cam member 4333 in one direction, the lock receiving member 4350 can be reciprocated up and down above the upper end of the lock member 4336, and a turning operation can be performed. In addition, even if the player performs an erroneous operation of lifting the swing operation member 310 upward during the turning operation, the lock member 4350 can regulate the swing of the lock receiving member 4350, and the eccentric cam member 4333 It can be prevented from being damaged.

  In the eighth embodiment, the case has been described in which when the lever member 340 and the slide plate 8370 are separated from each other, the lock member 8336 enters the lower side of the lever member 340 and restricts the swinging of the lever member 340. It is not limited to this. For example, a rod-shaped member that expands and contracts is disposed from the side wall of the inner case member 8330 toward the inner side of the inner case member 8330, and the rod-shaped member is expanded when the lever member 340 and the slide plate 8370 are separated from each other, You may make it enter into the lower side of the rear-end part of the lever member 340. FIG.

  In this case, the shape of the hook-shaped tip portion of the lock member 8336 does not need to be a shape that enters the lower side of the lever member 340, so that the degree of freedom in designing the lock member 8336 can be improved.

  In the eighth embodiment, the case has been described in which the lock member 8336 is disposed on the fixed side in a state where the lever member 340 is in the middle of the swing angle range, but the present invention is not necessarily limited thereto. For example, the lock member 8336 may be disposed on the fixed side when the rear end portion of the lever member 340 is disposed at the uppermost position in the swing angle range.

  In this case, even if the lever member 340 is peeled off from the peeling member 350, the range in which the lever member 340 can swing is limited on the upper side of the peeling member 350 whose swing is restricted. Thus, the momentum in the swinging direction applied to the lever member 340 is suppressed (the lever member 340 cannot be moved to the extent that momentum is applied). Therefore, the lever member 340 can be prevented from violently colliding with the inner case member 8330 and damaging the inner case member 8330.

  Further, for example, when the rear end portion of the lever member 340 is disposed at the lowest position in the swing angle range, the lock member 8336 may be disposed on the fixed side. In this case, in a posture in which the lever member 340 is restricted from swinging, the distance between the rear end portion of the lever member 340 and the upper side surface of the inner case member 8330 can be increased, so that the lever member 340 is peeled off from the peeling member 350. The player notices that the feeling transmitted to the player changes (the weight of the peeling member 350 is not transmitted to the player and the swing operation member 310 feels heavy), and the player swings the swing operation member. It is possible to have a time allowance for reducing the load applied to 310.

  On the other hand, when the rear end portion of the lever member 340 is disposed at the lowest position in the swing angle range, the peeling member 350 and the eccentric cam member 333 come into contact with each other, so that a load is applied from the peeling member 350 to the eccentric cam member 333. May occur. Therefore, in order to prevent this, the lock member 8336 is fixed on the fixed side only when the lock member 8336 is arranged at information rather than the middle position of the swinging range (when the eccentric cam member 333 does not contact the peeling member 350). You may make it arrange | position to.

  In the ninth embodiment, the elastic connecting members CS91 and CS92 are formed with the same length, and the elastic coefficient of the upper elastic connecting member CS91 is larger than that of the lower elastic connecting member CS92. However, it is not necessarily limited to this. For example, the elastic coupling members CS91 and CS92 may have the same elastic coefficient, and the upper elastic coupling member CS91 may be shorter than the lower elastic coupling member CS92.

  In this case, in the state where the elastic connecting members CS91 and CS92 have the same length (stretched), the upper elastic connecting member CS91 has a larger elastic displacement and a larger elastic recovery force, so that it has recovered elastically. In a later state, the lens member 317 of the swing operation member 310 can be easily held upward. Thereby, it can be made easy for the player to push in the lens member 317 from above.

  You may implement this invention in the pachinko machine etc. of a different type from said each embodiment. For example, once a big hit, a pachinko machine that raises the expected value of the big hit until a big hit state occurs (for example, two times or three times) including that (for example, a two-time right item, a three-time right item) May also be implemented. Further, after the jackpot symbol is displayed, it may be implemented as a pachinko machine that generates a special game that gives a player a predetermined game value on the condition that a ball is won in a predetermined area. Further, the present invention may be implemented in a pachinko machine that has a special area such as a V-zone and has a special gaming state as a necessary condition for winning a ball in the special area. Further, in addition to the pachinko machine, the game machine may be implemented as various game machines such as an alepatchi, a sparrow ball, a slot machine, a game machine in which a so-called pachinko machine and a slot machine are integrated.

  In the slot machine, for example, a symbol is changed by operating a control lever in a state where a symbol effective line is determined by inserting coins, and a symbol is stopped and confirmed by operating a stop button. Is. Accordingly, the basic concept of the slot machine is that it is provided with a display device for confirming and displaying the identification information after variably displaying the identification information string composed of a plurality of identification information, and resulting from the operation of the starting operation means (for example, the operation lever). The variation display of the identification information is started, and the variation display of the identification information is stopped and fixedly displayed due to the operation of the operation means for stop (for example, the stop button) or when a predetermined time elapses. It is a slot machine that generates a special game that gives a player a predetermined game value on the condition that the combination of identification information at the time is a specific condition. In this case, the game medium is typically a coin, medal, etc. Take as an example.

  In addition, as a specific example of a gaming machine in which a pachinko machine and a slot machine are fused, a display device is provided that displays a symbol after a symbol string composed of a plurality of symbols is variably displayed, and has a handle for launching a ball. What is not. In this case, after throwing a predetermined amount of spheres based on a predetermined operation (button operation), for example, the change of the symbol is started due to the operation of the operation lever, for example, due to the operation of the stop button, or With the passage of time, the variation of the symbol is stopped, and a special game that gives a predetermined game value to the player is generated on the condition that the determined symbol at the time of stoppage is a so-called jackpot symbol. In this case, a large amount of balls are paid out to the lower tray. If such a gaming machine is used in place of a slot machine, only a ball can be handled as a gaming value in the gaming hall. Therefore, the gaming value seen in the current gaming hall in which pachinko machines and slot machines are mixed is used. Problems such as the burden on equipment due to the separate handling of medals and balls and restrictions on the location of the gaming machine can be solved.

  The concept of various inventions included in the above-described embodiment in addition to the gaming machine of the present invention is shown below.

<An example of the technical idea that the lever member 340 is bent when locked>
A gaming machine comprising: a moving member that moves between a first position and a second position by a player's operation; and a regulating member that regulates movement of the moving member. An operating member to be operated, and a regulated member connected to the operating member and capable of regulating movement by the regulating member, wherein the regulated member is restricted from moving by the regulating member, The gaming machine A1 is configured such that the shape of the moving member is deformable when a load of a predetermined amount or more acts on the operating member.

  In a gaming machine such as a pachinko machine, there is a gaming machine in which a movement member that moves between a first position and a second position when a player manually operates is restricted in movement at a predetermined position by a restriction member (for example, JP, 2014-144218, A). However, in the conventional gaming machine described above, if the player applies an overload to the moving member in a state where movement is restricted, there is a possibility that the regulating member may be loaded through the moving member and the regulating member may be damaged. was there.

  On the other hand, according to the gaming machine A1, the moving member includes an operating member that is operated by the player and a controlled member that is connected to the operating member and whose movement can be controlled by the regulating member. In a state where the member is restricted from moving by the restricting member, when the load of a predetermined amount or more acts on the operation member, the shape of the moving member can be deformed, so that the load is consumed for the shape deformation of the moving member. Thereby, the load transmitted to the regulating member can be reduced. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the restricting member from being damaged when the player applies an overload to the moving member.

  In addition, as a structure of the moving member which implement | achieves the deformation | transformation of the shape of the moving member by the load of load, for example, the structure which arrange | positions elastic members, such as a spring, in a part of moving member, or a moving member is comprised from several site | parts A configuration in which each part is adsorbed by magnetic force is exemplified.

  In an arrangement in which an elastic member such as a spring is arranged in a part of the moving member, the degree of deformation of the moving member changes in proportion to the load applied, so an overload is applied to the operation member from the player. The greater the degree of deformation, the greater the degree of deformation of the moving member. Therefore, as the player overloads the operation member, the load consumed by the elastic member can be increased, and the load transmitted to the regulating member can be reduced accordingly.

  In a configuration in which the moving member is composed of a plurality of parts and each member is adsorbed by magnetic force, the moving member maintains its shape until a load greater than the adsorption force is applied, and the movable member is not applied until a load greater than the adsorption force is applied. The shape of is deformed. Thereby, when operating normally with the load below adsorption | suction force, a moving member can be handled as a rigid body and operation of a moving member can be made easy.

  In the gaming machine A1, the moving member has a predetermined amount or more of the operating member in a fixed state where the operating member is fixed to the restricted member and a state where the restricted member is restricted from moving by the restricting member. The gaming machine A2 is configured such that at least the operation member can be moved relative to the regulated member by being loaded with a load of.

  According to the gaming machine A2, in addition to the effects produced by the gaming machine A1, the moving member is operated in a fixed state where the operating member is fixed to the restricted member and in a state where the restricted member is restricted from moving by the restricting member. When a load of a predetermined amount or more is applied to the member, it is possible to configure at least a non-transmission state in which the operation member can be moved relative to the regulated member. In the non-transmission state, the transmission of the load to the regulating member can be suppressed while securing the property.

  The gaming machines A1 and A2 include a support member that supports the moving member, and the operation member and the regulated member that constitute the moving member are coaxially supported by a first shaft that is disposed on the support member. The game machine A3 is characterized in that the movement of the moving member is swinging about the first axis.

  According to the gaming machine A3, in addition to the effects produced by the gaming machines A1 and 2, by operating the operation member, it can be suppressed that a large load is applied between the regulating member and the regulated member. It is possible to prevent the restricting member from being damaged.

  The gaming machine A3 includes a first urging member that generates an urging force that moves the moving member in a swinging direction, and the urging force is applied to the operation member side.

  According to the gaming machine A4, in addition to the effect produced by the gaming machine A3, the biasing force of the first biasing member is applied to the operation member side and not to the regulated member side. It is possible to prevent the biasing force from being applied. Thereby, when a moving member will be in a non-transmission state, it can prevent that a control member receives the excessive biasing force from a 1st biasing member, and is damaged.

  Here, when excessive urging force is generated, the spring member is arranged in a manner to connect the operation member and the regulated member, and the spring member does not expand and contract in the fixed state, but the operation member in the non-transmission state The case where the spring member between the member and the regulated member is expanded and contracted to generate an urging force is illustrated. In this case, since the amount of change in the distance between the operation member and the regulated member becomes large, an excessive urging force may be generated from the regulated member to the regulating member.

  In the gaming machine A4, the first shaft is disposed in the lateral direction in the longitudinal direction, and the biasing force of the first biasing member is generated in a direction in which the operation member is tilted forward, and the fixed state The non-transmission state is configured by applying a downward load to the operation member in a state in which the moving member is controlled to swing by the restricting member.

  Here, when the biasing direction of the first biasing member is set to a direction in which the moving member rises, when the player overloads the operating member downward, the operating member peels from the regulated member and is regulated. Even if the member can be prevented from being damaged, the operation member rises as soon as the player releases his / her hand, so he / she does not realize that the player is overloading and may repeatedly overload the operation member. There was a problem that there was.

  On the other hand, in the gaming machine A5, in addition to the effect produced by the gaming machine A4, the direction of biasing of the operating member by the first biasing member is directed to the direction in which the operating member is tilted forward. Can continue to be placed in position. Thereby, the situation where a player repeatedly applies an overload to the operation member can be avoided.

  In the gaming machine A4, the first shaft is disposed in the lateral direction in the longitudinal direction, and the urging force of the first urging member is directed in a direction to raise the operation member, and the movement in the fixed state The gaming machine A6, wherein the non-transmission state is configured by applying a downward load to the operation member in a state in which the member is restricted from swinging by the restriction member.

  According to the gaming machine A6, in addition to the effect played by the gaming machine A4, the non-transmission state is configured by directing the operation member upward and applying a downward load to the operation member. Even if a downward load is applied to the moving member and the moving member constitutes a non-transmitting state, when the player releases the load, the operating member moves to the fixed state side by the biasing force. Thereby, arrangement | positioning of an operation member can be stabilized and it can make it easy for a player to perform next operation.

  In the gaming machine A6, a gaming machine A7 provided with a braking means for reducing the swing speed of the operation member when the moving member returns from the non-transmission state to the fixed state.

  According to the gaming machine A7, in addition to the effect of the gaming machine A6, the swing speed of the operating member when returning from the non-transmission state to the fixed state is reduced, so that the operating member can return to the fixed state at high speed. Thus, it is possible to suppress the impact from being transmitted to the regulating member.

  In the gaming machine A7, the braking means is a gear damper disposed on the support member and capable of generating viscous resistance, and a gear portion disposed on the operation member meshes with the gear damper. Game machine A8.

  According to the gaming machine A8, in addition to the effect produced by the gaming machine A7, the braking means is constituted by a gear damper capable of generating viscous resistance. Therefore, the greater the swing speed of the operating member, the greater the resistance applied to the operating member. . Therefore, resistance when the swing speed is low (the return speed of the operation member is low) is suppressed. For example, when the moving member is in a non-transmitting state, the player operates the operation member to swing the operation member at high speed. The resistance when doing so can be increased.

  As a result, the urging force of the first urging member can be set smaller and the design of the first urging member can be freely set as compared with the case where a large resistance corresponding to the high-speed operation of the player is generated regardless of the swing speed. The degree can be improved.

  In the gaming machine A8, the gear damper is arranged in such a manner that a viscous resistance is generated in relative movement of the operation member and the regulated member.

  Here, when the operating member and the regulated member are fixed and swinging as a unit, the relative positional relationship between the operating member and the regulated member does not change, so that the operating member does not receive viscous resistance from the gear damper.

  On the other hand, according to the gaming machine A9, in addition to the effect produced by the gaming machine A8, in the non-transmission state, when the operating member swings, the relative positional relationship between the operating member and the regulated member changes. Therefore, the viscous resistance of the gear damper is given to the operation member.

  Therefore, the viscous resistance of the gear damper can be applied to the operation member only when the player applies a load to the operation member so that the regulated member and the operation member constitute a non-transmission state. Accordingly, it is possible to change the feeling of operation when the player operates the operation member, and to prompt the player to use the operation member appropriately.

  For example, when the operation resistance when operating the operation member becomes excessively large, it becomes difficult for the player to perform the operation, resulting in stress. If the operating member and the regulated member are returned to the fixed state, the operating resistance is reduced, and the player can easily operate.

  Therefore, the player who tries to avoid stress avoids overloading the operation member. Thereby, it can suppress that a moving member is destroyed.

  Any one of the gaming machines A1 to A9, comprising: a driving device that generates a driving force for driving the moving member; and a transmission member that transmits the driving force to the moving member. The gaming machine A10 is characterized in that the transmission member is disposed at a position where the load is not transmitted when changing from the fixed state to the non-transmission state.

  According to the gaming machine A10, in addition to the effect of any of the gaming machines A1 to A9, even if the moving member receives a load and changes from the fixed state to the non-transmitting state, the load is not transmitted to the transmitting member. The damage of the transmission member can be suppressed, and the durability of the transmission member can be improved.

  As a position where the load is not transmitted from the moving member, when the moving member moves in the direction to receive the load, a position opposite to the direction in which the moving member moves or the moving member moves in the direction to receive the load. In this case, a position in the direction in which the moving member moves and a position separated by a predetermined distance from the moving member are exemplified.

  In the gaming machine A10, when the moving member is in the non-transmitting state and a driving force is generated from the driving device, the driving force of the driving device is transmitted to the operating member and is not transmitted to the regulated member. A gaming machine A11 characterized by that.

  According to the gaming machine A11, in addition to the effect produced by the gaming machine A10, even when the driving member generates a driving force when the swinging of the moving member is restricted by the regulating member, the driving force generated at that time is the operating member. Since it is used for swinging and not used for swinging the regulated member, it is possible to prevent the regulating member from being damaged.

  In the gaming machines A2 to A11, when the moving member is in the fixed state and the moving member is disposed at the second position as compared to the case where the moving member is disposed at the first position, the operation member The movement member is restricted from moving by the restriction member when the movement member is arranged at the second position, and the operation member and the restricted member are attracted by an electromagnet. The gaming machine A12 is configured such that the fixed state is configured.

  Here, when the swinging of the operation member at the first position is restricted, the projecting width of the operation member to the outside is smaller. For example, when selecting a box for packing a gaming machine, the operation member at the first position is selected. The box can be made smaller if it is selected based on the fixed state.

  On the other hand, if the power is turned off in a state where the swing of the operation member is restricted at the second position, the operation member cannot be moved from the second position, and the gaming machine cannot be put in the packing box. There was a problem.

  Also, if the line width is determined by the width of the state in which the operation member is arranged at the first position in a factory inspection line or the like, the operation member is erroneously arranged at the second position and the swing is fixed. There is a problem that the operation member may collide with an inspection machine or the like by flowing through the line.

  According to the gaming machine A12, in addition to the effects of any of the gaming machines A2 to A11, even if the movement member is restricted at the second position where the operation member projects, the operation member and the regulated member are Since it is fixed with an electromagnet, the operation member and the regulated member can be unfixed by turning off the power. Thereby, an operation member can be easily arrange | positioned in a 1st position, and a game machine can be accommodated in the box for packing, and the test | inspection in an improved test | inspection line can be made easy.

<An example of the technical idea that the eccentric cam can be separated from the lever>
A moving member that moves between a first position and a second position when operated by a player, a driving device that generates a driving force that moves the moving member, and a driving force that is generated from the driving device. A game machine comprising: a transmission member for transmitting to the game, wherein the movement member moves in a direction away from the transmission member when the movement member is operated in one direction. Machine B1.

  In a gaming machine such as a pachinko machine, there is a gaming machine in which a moving member that moves between a first position and a second position when operated by a player is driven by gear engagement (for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2014-2014). (See -144218). However, in the conventional gaming machine described above, if the moving member is manually operated while the moving member is being driven, the load on the gear is increased, the durability of the driving device and the transmission member is reduced, or the moving member is moved by driving. There was a problem that there was a risk of giving a load to the player.

  On the other hand, according to the gaming machine B1, when the player operates the moving member in one direction, the moving member moves in a direction away from the transmission member, so that a load is applied from the moving member to the driving device and the transmission member. Can be suppressed. Moreover, it can suppress that a moving member gives a load to a player by drive. Note that examples of the transmission member include an eccentric cam and a solenoid.

  In the gaming machine B1, the transmission member is constituted by a member that is eccentrically supported by a first shaft and is rotated about the first shaft.

Here, when the moving member is operated in one direction, the moving member and the transmission member are separated from each other. Therefore, when the moving member is operated in the other direction, the moving member and the transmission member collide with each other. In many cases, the arm length of the transmission member increases as the movement width of the movement member increases. In this case, the transmission member may be damaged by the collision.

On the other hand, according to the gaming machine B2, in addition to the effect produced by the gaming machine B1, the transmission member is composed of an eccentric cam. Therefore, when the moving member is driven at a portion where the distance from the first shaft to the outer shape is long. While colliding with the moving member while ensuring the amount of movement, the moving member and the transmission member collide from the first shaft by taking a posture in which a portion with a short distance from the first shaft to the outer shape is directed to the moving member. It is possible to shorten the arm length of the transmission member of the portion to be performed. Thereby, it can prevent that a transmission member is damaged.

  The gaming machine B2 includes a first urging member that generates an urging force that moves the moving member in a specific direction, and the specific direction is a direction in which the moving member and the transmission member are brought close to each other. A gaming machine B3.

  According to the gaming machine B3, in addition to the effect produced by the gaming machine B2, the moving member is pressed against the transmission member by the urging force of the first urging member, so that the movement is achieved by rotating the transmission member about the first axis. The member can be reciprocated. As a result, the player's attention can be easily collected on the moving member.

  In the gaming machine B3, the moving member is pivotally supported by a second axis that is different from the first axis and extends in the left-right direction, and the moving member is operated by a player. A gaming machine B4 comprising a member, wherein the transmission member is disposed on the opposite side of the operation member across the second shaft and on the lower side of the moving member.

  According to the gaming machine B4, in addition to the effects achieved by the gaming machine B3, the transmission member can be moved under the moving member while the second shaft extends in the left-right direction and the lever can swing in the forward tilting direction. Since it is disposed on the side and on the opposite side of the operation member across the second shaft, it is possible to prevent a load from being applied to the transmission member when the player pushes down the operation member. Thereby, durability of a transmission member can be improved.

  In the gaming machine B4, a gaming machine B5 is characterized in that a production member for producing an effect for the player is disposed on the operation member.

  According to the gaming machine B5, in addition to the effects produced by the gaming machine B4, the operation member is provided with the production member that produces an effect for the player, so that the player's attention can be gathered on the operation member.

  In addition, as a production | presentation apparatus which produces | generates with respect to a player, light-emitting devices, such as LED arrange | positioned at the board | substrate, the vibration apparatus etc. which produce a vibration are illustrated.

  In the gaming machine B5, the effect member includes at least a vibration device that generates vibration, and a load applied to the operation member when the vibration device vibrates is directed in a direction in which the moving member is separated from the transmission member. A gaming machine B6 characterized by that.

  Here, when the effect device is disposed on the operation member, the weight on the operation member side of the moving member becomes heavy, and thus the urging force of the first urging member is required to be large. Therefore, the load applied to the transmission member may be increased.

  On the other hand, according to the gaming machine B6, in addition to the effect produced by the gaming machine B5, the effect member includes at least a vibration device that generates vibration, and the load applied to the operation member when the vibration device vibrates is the moving member. Is directed away from the transmission member, the load applied from the moving member to the transmission member due to the vibration of the vibration device can be reduced.

  In the gaming machine B6, the operation member is configured in a spherical shape with a hollow inside, and the vibration device is disposed at a substantially central portion of the operation member, and the vibration unit that vibrates by the vibration device is disposed outside the operation member. A gaming machine B7, which is connected as a shell and a rigid body.

  According to the gaming machine B7, in addition to the effects produced by the gaming machine B6, the operation member is configured in a spherical shape with a hollow inside, and the vibration device is disposed at a substantially central portion of the operation member. The size of the vibration device can be ensured while keeping it small. In addition, the vibration unit that vibrates by the vibration device is not concealed inside the operation member, but is connected to the outer shell of the operation member as a rigid body, so that vibration is directly applied to the finger of the player who operates the operation member. I can tell you. Therefore, the effect of the vibration device can be improved.

  In any one of the gaming machines B3 to B7, the operation member includes a pushing member that enables a pushing operation downward, and a direction axis into which the pushing member is pushed is the same as that of the first shaft across the second shaft. A gaming machine B8, which is arranged on the opposite side.

  According to the gaming machine B8, in addition to the effects of any of the gaming machines B3 to B7, the operation member includes a pushing member that enables a pushing operation downward, and the direction axis into which the pushing member is pushed is the second. Since it is arranged on the opposite side of the first shaft across the shaft, when the player pushes the pushing member, the load is applied in a direction away from the transmission member and applied to the transmission member from the moving member Can be reduced.

  In the gaming machine B8, a gaming machine B9 comprising a pushable state in which the pusher member can be pushed in and a pushable state in which the pusher member is fixed so that it cannot be displaced and cannot be pushed in.

  According to the gaming machine B9, in addition to the effects achieved by the gaming machine B8, a pushable state in which the pusher member can be pushed in and a pushable state in which the pusher member is fixed so that it cannot be displaced and cannot be pushed in are configured. The effect that the moving member receives by the operation performed by the person can be switched on the gaming machine side.

  For example, when a player repeatedly pushes the pushing member intermittently (repetitively hits), when the pushing member returns from the pushed-in state, the reaction member receives a load in the direction of approaching the transmission member. Therefore, the transmission member may be damaged.

  On the other hand, when the push-in is disabled, the entire operation member is pushed down in response to the player's push-in operation, so that the moving member is also moved away from the transmission member. Therefore, even if the player strikes the pushing member repeatedly, it is possible to suppress a situation where the transmission member and the moving member collide due to the operation member returning upward by the biasing force.

  In addition, as a method of configuring the incompressible state, the indentation member is extended to the end position by a method of locking the indentation member with a hook-shaped claw or a vibration device such as a voice coil motor that performs linear reciprocating motion. Examples thereof include a method of continuing to apply a load in one direction. According to the method in which the pushing member is extended to the end position by the vibration device such as a voice coil motor, both the effects of vibrating the pushing member by the vibration device and making the pushing member incapable of being pushed in are produced. Can be made.

  In any one of the gaming machines B4 to B9, the first shaft and the second shaft are arranged in parallel, and the rotation direction of the transmission member is the side away from the first shaft across the second shaft. A gaming machine B10, characterized in that the direction is opposite to the moving member.

  According to the gaming machine B10, in addition to the effects of any of the gaming machines B4 to B9, the rotation direction of the transmission member is set to the direction facing the moving member on the side far from the first axis across the second axis. Therefore, when the transmission member moves to face the moving member, the load applied from the moving member to the transmission member is suppressed (the distance from the second shaft to the contact position between the moving member and the transmission member is long). Therefore, even if the transmission member moves in a direction close to the moving member, the possibility that the transmission member is damaged can be reduced.

  In any one of the gaming machines B1 to B10, the transmission member is pivotally supported by a first shaft, and a rotational gear to which a driving force is transmitted from the driving device, an eccentric shaft that is pivotally supported by the first shaft, and the movement An eccentric cam abutting on the member, and a fixed state in which the rotating gear is fixed to the eccentric cam and a non-transmission state in which the rotating gear is relatively movable with respect to the eccentric cam A gaming machine B11 characterized by being enabled.

  According to the gaming machine B11, in addition to the effects produced by any of the gaming machines B1 to B10, in the fixed state, the moving member can be swung by the rotation of the transmission member, and the eccentric cam exceeds the threshold value from the moving member. When receiving a load, the load applied to the eccentric cam from the moving member can be released by setting the eccentric cam and the rotating gear to the non-transmitting state. Thereby, it can prevent that an eccentric cam breaks.

  Note that the case where the eccentric cam and the rotating gear can be configured to be in a non-transmitting state includes, for example, the case where the eccentric cam and the rotating gear are attracted and fixed by magnetic force, or the case where the eccentric cam and the rotating gear are in the circumferential direction. The case where it fits by friction etc. is illustrated.

<An example of the technical idea that the locking member for fixing the moving member is operated in synchronization with the moving member>
A moving member that moves between a first position and a second position by a player's operation, a driving device that generates a driving force for driving the moving member, and a shaft that is eccentrically supported by the first shaft A gaming machine comprising: a transmission member that transmits a driving force of the driving device to the moving member; and a restricting member that restricts swinging of the moving member, wherein the restricting member swings the moving member. It is possible to configure a controllable standby state and a release state of canceling the swing control of the moving member, and the transmission member and the control member operate in synchronization with the driving force of the driving device. A gaming machine C1 characterized by this.

  In a gaming machine such as a pachinko machine, a moving member that moves between a first position and a second position when operated by a player is swung by an eccentric cam-shaped transmission member that is driven by a driving device, The biasing force that moves the moving member in the direction approaching the eccentric cam-shaped transmission member is received, and the swinging of the moving member is restricted during the swinging of the moving member and at the predetermined timing. There is a gaming machine provided with a regulating member to be released (for example, see JP 2013-244108 A). However, in the above-described conventional gaming machine, in accordance with the release of the swing restriction of the moving member, the short diameter side of the eccentric cam-shaped transmission member is directed to the side in contact with the moving member, so that the moving member Although it is possible to prevent the transmission member from being damaged when it collides with the eccentric cam-shaped transmission member, if the regulating member malfunctions for some reason, the posture of the eccentric cam-shaped transmission member cannot be changed. There is a problem in that the cam-shaped transmission member collides with the moving member on the longer diameter side, and the eccentric cam-shaped transmission member may be damaged.

  On the other hand, according to the gaming machine C1, the transmission member that transmits the driving force to the moving member and the restriction member that restricts the swing of the moving member operate in synchronization with the driving force of the driving device. It is possible to mechanically determine the attitude of the transmission member when is set to the released state. Thereby, since a moving member and a transmission member can be contact | abutted in the state which orient | assigned the strength side (short diameter side) of the transmission member to the moving member, durability of a transmission member can be improved.

  In the gaming machine C1, the restriction member is operated in synchronization with the transmission member only in a phase for releasing the restriction of swinging of the moving member, and when the synchronization operation with the transmission member is released, the restriction member is The gaming machine C2 is characterized in that the member is in the standby state, and the swinging of the moving member is restricted by the restricting member when the moving member moves to a predetermined position.

  According to the gaming machine C2, in addition to the effects produced by the gaming machine C1, after the regulating member releases the regulation of the swinging of the moving member, the driving force of the driving device can be used exclusively for the swinging of the moving member. Therefore, when the transmission member is rotated, it is possible to prevent problems such as collision with the moving member due to the movement of the regulating member together.

  In addition, even when the player operates the moving member during synchronous driving, the moving member can be restricted by the restricting member by arranging the moving member at a predetermined position. Synchronous drive with the member (releasing the swinging restriction of the moving member) can be performed.

  In the gaming machine C2, when the restriction member is in the standby state, the movement of the movement member is restricted by moving the restriction member so that one end of the movement member rides on the restriction member. The moving member can execute a first operation that does not pass through the predetermined position and a second operation that reaches the predetermined position, depending on a movement mode of the transmission member, and the restricting member includes A gaming machine C3 comprising a recessed portion that is recessed from the swinging locus of the outer shape portion of the moving member when performing the first operation.

  When the swinging direction of the moving member is regulated by moving the regulating member in such a manner that one end of the moving member rides on the regulating member, the moving member is regulated as a step before giving the regulation of the swinging direction to the moving member. Resistance is applied from the member. On the other hand, if resistance is applied from the restricting member even during an operation that is not intended to be restricted in the swinging direction as in the first operation, an extra driving force of the moving member is required.

  On the other hand, according to the gaming machine C3, in addition to the effect produced by the gaming machine C2, when the moving member performs the first operation, the recessed portion is retracted from the moving member and is thus recessed. It is possible to prevent resistance from being applied to the moving member. Thereby, the load applied to the transmission member can be suppressed.

  In any of the gaming machines C1 to C3, the game machine includes a first urging device that generates an urging force that swings the moving member in a direction close to the transmission member, and the transmission member rotates about the first axis. An eccentric cam, and when the restriction of swinging of the moving member by the restricting member is released and the moving member is moved toward the transmitting member by a biasing force, The first side surface, which is the side surface in contact with the moving member, is configured to come into contact with the cylindrical portion that is a part of the transmission member that is pivotally supported by the first shaft, and the moving member is the cylindrical portion. The gaming machine C4 is characterized in that the first side surface is retracted from the moving member when starting to come into contact with the gaming machine C4.

  According to the gaming machine C4, in addition to the effect exerted by any of the gaming machines C1 to C3, when the restriction of the swinging of the moving member by the restricting member is released, and the moving member moves toward the transmission member with the urging force In the cam portion of the transmission member, the first side surface, which is the side surface of the transmission member that is in contact with the moving member, is configured to come into contact with the cylindrical portion that is part of the transmission member that is pivotally supported by the first shaft. When the moving member starts to come into contact with the cylindrical portion, the first side surface is retracted from the moving member, so that the swinging displacement of the moving member can be ensured to the maximum. Accordingly, it is possible to configure a synchronized state in which the swinging displacement of the moving member is ensured to the maximum immediately after the restriction of the swinging of the moving member by the restricting member is released.

  In the gaming machine C4, the gaming machine C5 is characterized in that an end of the first side surface opposite to the cylindrical portion comes into contact with the moving member and the transmitting member from the beginning.

  According to the gaming machine C5, in addition to the effect produced by the gaming machine C4, the speed of the swinging motion of the moving member can be improved.

  Here, when the moving member hits the long diameter portion of the circular eccentric cam from the rotational direction of the eccentric cam, the moment applied to the eccentric cam increases, and the load in the rotational direction applied to the drive device increases. Therefore, when it is not known when the transmission member collides with the moving member, it is preferable that the large diameter portion does not contact the moving member in the rotation direction of the transmission member (circular eccentric cam). On the other hand, if it is possible to grasp when the moving member hits the transmission member, it is possible to increase the swinging speed of the moving member by swinging the moving member at the large outer diameter portion, so that the effect is enhanced. be able to.

  In the case of synchronous driving, the timing when the moving member collides with the transmission member can be mechanically matched. Therefore, when the moving member comes into contact with the transmission member, the first side surface is slightly retracted, and the first side surface can be brought into contact with the moving member at the timing after the collision, thereby improving the speed of the swinging motion of the moving member. Can be made.

  In any of the gaming machines C1 to C3, the game machine includes a first urging device that generates an urging force that swings the moving member in a direction close to the transmission member, and the transmission member rotates about the first axis. When the restriction of swinging of the moving member by the restricting member is released, the transmission member abuts on the moving member, and the moving member follows the rotation of the transmitting member. A gaming machine C6 that is swung.

  According to the gaming machine C6, in addition to the effects produced by any of the gaming machines C1 to C3, the gaming machine C6 includes a first biasing device that generates a biasing force that swings the moving member in a direction close to the transmission member. The eccentric cam is configured to rotate about the first axis, and when the restriction of the swing of the moving member by the restriction member is released, the transmission member abuts on the movement member and follows the rotation of the transmission member to move the movement member. Since the member swings, it is possible to make it difficult for the player to notice the timing at which the swing restriction of the moving member is released. As a result, the player can easily concentrate on the game.

<An example of the technical idea that the operation unit arranged at the tip of the moving member vibrates>
A moving member that moves between a first position and a second position when operated by a player, and a vibration device that is disposed on the moving member and is capable of generating vibrations. And the longitudinal direction of the moving member are inclined with respect to each other.

  In a gaming machine such as a pachinko machine, there is a gaming machine in which a moving member that moves between a first position and a second position when operated by a player includes a vibration device (for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-20741). See). However, in the conventional gaming machine described above, there is a problem that it is difficult to increase the vibration in order to prevent the occurrence of a malfunction such as shaking of the gaming machine due to the vibration of the vibration device being transmitted to the gaming machine. there were.

  On the other hand, according to the gaming machine D1, since the longitudinal direction of the moving member and the vibration direction of the vibration device disposed on the moving member are inclined, the vibration generated by the vibration device is It can be decomposed into a direction component along the direction and a direction component along the direction perpendicular to the direction component, and vibration transmitted to the gaming machine can be suppressed.

  Examples of the vibration device include a voice coil motor that forms a vibration in a linear direction, and a vibrator that generates vibration by rotating an eccentric weight. In the case of a voice coil motor, the direction of vibration means the direction in which the voice coil motor reciprocates, and in the case of a vibrator, the direction of vibration means a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis of the weight.

  The gaming machine D1 includes a driving device that generates a driving force that swings the moving member, and a transmission member that transmits the driving force generated by the driving device to the moving member. A gaming machine D2 comprising a device that generates vibration, wherein the transmission member is disposed on the opposite side of the direction in which the moving member is moved by the vibration of the vibration device.

  According to the gaming machine D2, in addition to the effects produced by the gaming machine D1, the reaction that occurs when the vibration device operates is directed in the direction of moving the moving member away from the transmission member, so that the moving member is transmitted by the vibration of the vibration device. It can be swung in a direction away from the member. Thereby, it can suppress that a transmission member receives load by the vibration of a vibration apparatus.

  In the gaming machine D1 or D2, the vibration device includes a device that generates a vibration in a linear direction, the vibration device is pivotally supported by a second shaft disposed on the moving member, and vibration of the vibration device is generated. A gaming machine D3, wherein a central axis is disposed in a manner passing through the second axis, and a buffer member that absorbs vibration is disposed on the second axis.

  According to the gaming machine D3, in addition to the effects produced by the gaming machine D1 or D2, the vibration device is pivotally supported by the second shaft disposed on the moving member, and the vibration device is configured by a device that generates vibration in a linear direction. The center axis of vibration of the vibration device is arranged in a manner that passes through the second axis, and the buffer member is disposed on the second axis, so that the shock of vibration can be mitigated by the buffer member. Thereby, the vibration transmitted to a moving member can be suppressed and the vibration transmitted to a game machine can be suppressed.

  In the gaming machine D3, the moving member includes a pushing member that is pushed by a player, and is configured to increase the rotational resistance of the second shaft by pushing the pushing member. Machine D4.

  According to the gaming machine D4, in addition to the effects achieved by the gaming machine D3, the moving member includes a pushing member that is pushed by the player, and the pushing resistance of the pushing member increases the rotational resistance of the second shaft. Since it is comprised, especially when a player pushes in a pushing member, rotation operation | movement of a vibration apparatus can be suppressed and a vibration component can be ensured largely. Thereby, the state in which the vibration device can easily rotate around the second axis and the state in which the vibration device ensures a large vibration component can be switched by the player's operation.

  In the gaming machine D4, the vibration device is connected to the push-in member as a rigid body.

  According to the gaming machine D5, in addition to the effects produced by the gaming machine D4, the vibration device is connected to the push member as a rigid body, so that the player can experience the vibration of the vibration device through the push member. Therefore, when the pushing member is not pushed in, the vibrating device is vibrated and swung around the second axis to attract the player's attention to the vibrating device. On the other hand, when the pushing member is pushed in, the vibrating device is swung. By suppressing this, the vibration in the linear direction felt by the player can be increased. Therefore, the behavior of the vibration device can be changed according to the situation (whether or not the player is pushing the pushing member).

  In the gaming machine D1 or D2, the vibration device is pivotally supported by a second shaft disposed on the moving member, and a vibration central axis of the vibration device is disposed in a manner passing through a position separated from the second shaft. A gaming machine D6 characterized by being played.

  When the connection between the moving member and the vibration device is an axial support, the vibration transmitted to the player can be increased by matching the center axis of the vibration of the vibration device with the axial support position. On the other hand, in this case, a large vibration is also transmitted to the gaming machine. For this reason, there has been a problem in that the fastening screw is loosened or the member is deteriorated at an early stage, and the maintenance cycle is shortened.

  On the other hand, according to the gaming machine D6, in addition to the effect produced by the gaming machine D1 or D2, vibration is caused by rotating the vibration device by shifting the rotation shaft of the vibration device and the center axis of vibration of the vibration device. The vibration of the device can be used, and the vibration transmitted to the gaming machine can be reduced (vibration energy is used for rotation of the vibration device). In addition, the presentation effect can be improved by swinging the vibration device by the vibration of the vibration device.

  The gaming machine D6 includes a detection device that detects the vibration of the vibration device, and the vibration device is disposed on an operation member held by a player.

  According to the gaming machine D7, in addition to the effects achieved by the gaming machine D6, the vibration device is disposed on the operation member held by the player and includes a detection device that detects the vibration of the vibration device. By grasping the operating member while being held, vibration can be suppressed and a signal detected by the vibration device can be changed. Thereby, it can be detected whether the player is holding the operation member (in a preparation stage for operating the moving member).

<An example of a technical idea that assists the input timing of a moving member that performs turning>
A gaming machine E1 comprising an input device for a player to perform an input operation, the input device being driven in a direction approaching or moving away from the player and an input unit for performing an input operation.

  In a gaming machine such as a pachinko machine, there is a gaming machine in which a timing for operating an input device is specified (see, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2012-210238). However, the above-described conventional gaming machine has a problem that it becomes difficult to concentrate on the game, such as being distracted by the timing of operating the input device and neglecting the adjustment of the strength of playing the ball.

  On the other hand, according to the gaming machine E1, since the input unit of the input device is driven in a direction approaching and separating from the player, the input unit moves in a direction approaching the player, and the player's finger If it touches, the operation of the input unit can be performed on the gaming machine side by operating the input unit in a manner to push it back.

  Examples of the input operation include an operation of pushing a push button and an operation of pulling the moving member.

  In the gaming machine E1, the input device includes a vibration device that vibrates in a linear direction, and is arranged in a manner in which a vibration direction of the vibration device coincides with a direction in which the input unit is operated, and the vibration device is the input device. The gaming machine E2 is characterized in that the input unit is not operable when pressed against a part, and the input unit is operable when the vibration device is retracted from the input part.
