FIG. 4 is a partially enlarged explanatory view of the center member 26 showing the state where the electric accessory 35 is in the retracted position X, and FIGS. 5 and 6 show the state where the electric accessory 35 is in the effect positions Y and Z. It is a partially expanded explanatory view of the center member 26 showing.
The electric accessory 35 is a rod-like body having a distal end portion 35a formed in an arrow shape, and is attached to be rotatable in a plane parallel to the game board 2 (substantially in a vertical plane) with the base end portion as an axis. Yes. In addition, a plurality of LEDs 38, 38,... Capable of emitting light in full color, including the inside of the distal end portion 35a, are installed in the electric accessory 35. Then, as shown in FIG. 4, the electric accessory 35 is in a posture in which the tip portion 35 a faces downward, and the retraction position X where the entire electric accessory 35 is hidden behind the center member 35 is shown in FIGS. 5 and 6. By rotating in this way, the tip 35a is pivotally mounted between the production positions Y and Z that advance forward in the symbol display section 6. Note that, at the retracted position X, the distal end portion 35 a is located behind the warp passage 37.

On the other hand, a control mechanism for operating the electric accessory 35 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 7 is a block diagram showing a control mechanism of the pachinko machine 1.
The main control device 20 incorporates a main control board 40 on which a main CPU 41 for controlling the operation of the following members as well as execution of the jackpot lottery, a storage means 42 such as a ROM and a RAM, a timer 43, an interface 44 and the like are mounted. Yes. The main control board 40 is connected to the tulip-type electric accessory 17, the big winning device 18, the gate member 19, the payout control device 28, the power supply device 29, and the like via the interface 44. The main control board 40 is also connected to a sub-integrated board 45 built in the sub-control device 22.

  The sub integrated board 45 includes a sub integrated CPU 46, a storage unit 47, an interface 48, a timer 49, and the like. A main control board 40 is connected to the sub-integrated board 45 through an interface 48, and a display control device 30, a light emission control device 33, and a sound control device 34 are connected. When the signal relating to the big hit lottery is received from the control, the operation of the speaker 14 and the electrical decoration member 15 and the display operation in the symbol display unit 6 are controlled according to the content of the signal. The sub-integrated board 45 is connected to the push button 25 and the electric accessory 35 via the interface 48, and the sub-integrated CPU 46 has an on / off detection unit 51 that detects the operation of the push button 25, An operation lottery unit 50 for determining whether or not to operate the electric accessory 35 according to the operation of the push button 25 and a position detection unit 52 for detecting the position (rotation angle) of the electric accessory 35 are provided. ing.

(Operation details of the electric accessory)
In the pachinko machine 1, for example, during a so-called demonstration in which a game ball is not driven into the game area 16 or during a performance using a push button 25 as will be described later, the pachinko machine 1 is evacuated under the control of the sub-control device 22. The LEDs 38, 38,... Of the electric accessory 35 at the position X are turned on (emitted) in white, and the electric accessory 35 functions as an electric decoration member that illuminates the warp passage 37. Therefore, in particular, the LED 38 built in the tip portion 35a illuminates the warp passage 37, so that the position of the warp passage 37 can be appealed to the player. In addition, each time a game ball passes through the warp passage 37, the light of the LED 38 is blocked by the game ball, so that it appears to the player as if the warp passage 37 is blinking, and the game ball passes through the warp passage. It is possible to appeal to the player that the player has passed 37 and has been guided onto the stage 36, that is, that the game ball has been guided onto the stage 36 where the expectation of winning a prize for the tulip-type electric accessory 17 has increased.

  Also, in the pachinko machine 1, the symbol display unit 6 starts changing the symbol when it becomes “hit” or “out” in the jackpot lottery executed when the game ball wins the tulip-type electric accessory 17 After that, the effect by the electric accessory 35 using the push button 25 is executed until the predetermined “big hit symbol” or “deviated symbol” is displayed. Hereinafter, the operation content of the electric accessory 35 will be described in detail.

In the sub control device 22, when a predetermined variation time is selected as the symbol variation time regardless of “big hit” or “out” as a result of the jackpot lottery executed by the main control device 20 (establishment of a predetermined condition), The execution of the production by the electric accessory 35 is determined. Note that the sub-control device 22 grasps whether or not the symbol variation time is a predetermined variation time based on a signal transmitted from the main control device 20 in accordance with the big hit lottery.
When the execution of the effect by the electric accessory 35 is determined, a message prompting the user to press and hold the push button 25 at the approximate center of the symbol display unit 6 at a predetermined timing (for example, after the reach is determined). In addition to displaying a display (for example, “Keep pressing the button!”), The content of the “hit lottery” relating to the change is “hit” on the movement trajectory of the tip 35a of the electric accessory 35 in the symbol display unit 6. That is, the expectation display A relating to the expectation that the “big hit state” occurs is displayed (FIG. 4). The electric accessory 35 is in the retracted position X until the push button 25 is pushed. Further, the sub control device 22 turns on the LEDs 38, 38,... In a color different from the white color (for example, red) in accordance with the execution of the performance by the electric accessory 35.

  Therefore, when the push button 25 is pushed in by the player, a switch (not shown) installed below the push button 25 is turned on. Then, the sub-control device 22 detects the pressing operation of the push button 25 by the on / off detection unit 51, and determines whether or not to operate the electric accessory 35 by a predetermined unit angle by the operation lottery unit 50 with the detection of the on. Lottery. If the result of the lottery is winning, the electric accessory 35 is operated by a predetermined unit angle toward the side where the expectation is increased. On the other hand, if the lottery result is out of the range, the current position is kept without operating the electric accessory 35. The lottery is performed by, for example, obtaining a predetermined numerical value from a random number and determining whether or not the numerical value is a winning numerical value, and the winning probability is 90/100. In addition, the electric accessory 35 moves from the retreat position X to the effect position side by the first operation.

  Further, the sub-control device 22 repeatedly detects the push-in operation of the push button 25 and determines whether or not to operate the electric accessory 35 every very short time (for example, 0.2 seconds). By pressing and holding, the electric accessory 35 operates step by step by a predetermined unit angle every time a lottery is won. Then, with a total of 10 wins, the electric accessory 35 reaches the first effect position (first specific position) Y shown in FIG. Theoretically, the same control is executed by operating the push button 25 intermittently (so-called continuous hitting operation) at the same speed as the lottery interval without operating the push button 25 for a long time. However, it is almost impossible to push the push button 25 intermittently at such a speed, and such a game form is not taken into consideration.

  Next, in the sub-control device 22, when the position detection unit 52 detects that the electric accessory 35 has reached the first effect position Y, the winning probability in the lottery for determining whether or not to operate the electric accessory 35 is determined as “big hit” Change according to the result of “Lottery” Specifically, for example, when the result of the “hit lottery” is “off”, the winning probability is greatly reduced to 5/100, while the result of the “hit lottery” is “hit” Only reduces the winning probability to 20/100. Then, regardless of the result of the “big hit lottery”, a game situation is generated in which the electric accessory 35 is likely to stop once at the first effect position Y and is more difficult to operate beyond the first effect position Y. Note that the lottery itself for determining whether or not to operate the electric accessory 35 is repeatedly performed every very short time as described above as long as the pushing operation of the push button 25 is detected.

  Further, in the sub-control device 22, a lottery for determining whether or not to operate the electric accessory 35 in a state where the electric accessory 35 is in the first effect position Y is won, and the electric accessory 35 is further removed from the first effect position Y. When it is operated in one step (by a predetermined unit angle) in the direction in which the degree of expectation increases (reach the second specific position), the winning probability of the lottery is changed again according to the result of the “big hit lottery”. Specifically, for example, when the result of “big hit lottery” is “off”, the winning probability is further reduced to 1/100, while the result of “big hit lottery” is “big hit”. Increases the winning probability to 50/100. Then, the lottery for determining whether or not to operate the electric accessory 35 that is repeatedly performed in an extremely short time is continued, the electric accessory 35 is operated in accordance with the success or failure, and the second degree indicating the degree of expectation MAX is obtained by winning nine times. When the electric accessory 35 reaches the effect position Z, the sub-control device 22 turns on / flashes the electrical decoration member 15 in a predetermined color and manner via the light emission control device 33, and a speaker via the sound control device 34. 14 gives a sound effect of a predetermined sound effect or sound, and performs an effect of increasing the expectation of “big hit”.

  The effect by the electric accessory 35 is a predetermined game time (a specific period of time, for example, 15 seconds after the display that prompts the symbol display unit 6 to operate the push button 25 is set by the timer 49. When the game time elapses, the operation and lottery of the electric accessory 35 and the notification by the electric decoration member 15 and the like are stopped, and the electric accessory 35 is operated in the opposite direction to that of the electric accessory 35 and retracted. Return to position X. The game time is set to be shorter than the variation time of the symbol, and the effect by the electric accessory 35 is ended before the “big hit symbol” or the “off symbol” is fixedly displayed on the symbol display unit 6. Yes. Therefore, after returning the electric accessory 35 to the retreat position X, the sub-control device 22 performs a further reach effect or a disengagement effect on the symbol display unit 6, and finally the “big hit symbol” or “outage symbol”. Is displayed.

  Further, during the production by the electric accessory 35, the sub control device 22 lights in a color (for example, red) different from the case where the built-in LEDs 38, 38,. When the electric accessory 35 reaches the second effect position Z, the LEDs 38, 38,. When the game time elapses, the LEDs 38, 38,... Are once turned off, the electric accessory 35 is returned to the retracted position X, and then the LEDs 38, 38,.

(Effects of the pachinko machine of this embodiment)
According to the pachinko machine 1 having the electric accessory 35 as described above, the warp passage 37 that covers the front of the electric accessory 35 in the retracted position X has translucency, and the electric accessory is also in the retracted position X. The electric accessory 35 is caused to function also as an electric decoration member that causes the LED 38 of 35 to emit light and illuminate the warp passage 37. Therefore, it can be set as the rational structure which does not need to provide the separate electrical decoration member which shines the warp channel | path 37, and there exists an effect that a number of members can be reduced.

Further, by making the warp passage 37 shine, it is possible to appeal the position of the warp passage 37 to the player. Further, every time a game ball passes through the warp passage 37, the light of the LED 38 is blocked by the game ball, so that it appears to the player as if the warp passage 37 is blinking, and the game ball is in the warp passage. It is possible to appeal to the player that the player has passed 37 and has been guided onto the stage 36, that is, that the game ball has been guided onto the stage 36 where the expectation of winning a prize for the tulip-type electric accessory 17 has increased.
In addition, since the LEDs 38, 38,... Built in the electric accessory 35 are LEDs that can emit light in full color, when the warp passage 37 is shining at the retracted position X, and when it is activated and produced at the production position The colors can be made different from each other, and the light emission effects by the LEDs 38 can be diversified.

  In addition, according to the pachinko machine 1 that performs an effect using the push button 25 and the electric accessory 35 as described above, the electric accessory 35 is operated in the sub-control device 22 while the push button 25 is long pressed. The lottery of whether or not to operate is repeatedly executed every very short time, and when the lottery is won, the electric accessory 35 is actuated step by step by a predetermined unit angle. Therefore, it is possible to provide an unprecedented novel effect that the electric accessory 35 is actuated stepwise according to the long press operation of the push button 25, and it is possible to provide a highly pachinko machine with high taste. .

  Furthermore, it represents the degree of expectation that the operating position of the electric accessory 35 is “big hit” in the big hit lottery, and when the electric accessory 35 reaches the first performance position Y, is the electric accessory 35 activated? The winning probability relating to the lottery of “No” is reduced, and it is difficult to generate a situation in which the electric accessory 35 operates from the first performance position Y to the side where the expectation level is further increased. Therefore, the player can play the game with interest as to whether or not the electric accessory 35 further operates from the first effect position Y, and can further improve the preference.

  Furthermore, when the winning combination related to the lottery for determining whether or not the electric accessory 35 reaches the first performance position Y and activates the electric accessory 35 is the result of the “big hit lottery” being “big hit”? The rate of decrease is varied depending on whether it is “displaced”, and the operation in the case of “big hit” is easier to operate beyond the first performance position Y than in the case of “disappearance”. . Therefore, the player can play the game with interest in the operation of the electric actor 35 while predicting the result of the “big hit lottery” after the electric actor 35 reaches the first performance position Y. Can be improved.

  In addition, the winning probability related to the lottery whether or not to operate the electric accessory 35 is determined as “big hit” until the second stage position Z where the degree of expectation is reached after the first stage position Y is exceeded. The result of the “lottery” is changed in relation to whether it is “hit” or “out”, and the case where it is “hit” is made easier to operate the electric accessory 35 compared to the case of “out”. Yes. Therefore, in the case of “big hit”, it is relatively easy to reach the second effect position Z, but it is unlikely to frequently reach the second effect position Z despite being “off”. Thus, it is possible to make the game difficult for the player to feel uncomfortable.

(Description of modified example of the present invention)
The configuration related to the gaming machine of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment at all, and the gist of the present invention is related to the configuration of the gaming machine itself, the shape of the electric accessory, the operation mode of the electric accessory, and the like. It can be appropriately changed as necessary without departing from the scope.

  For example, in the above-described embodiment, the second effect position Z is set to the expectation level MAX. However, as the first effect position Y is set to the expectation level MAX and the first effect position Y is exceeded and the second effect position Z is operated toward the second effect position Z side. The configuration may be such that the degree of expectation is lowered. In this case, for example, whether or not to operate the electric accessory 35 when the result of the “hit lottery” is “hit” than when it is “out” How to change the winning probability of the lottery, such as lowering the winning probability related to the lottery, can be appropriately changed according to the game.

Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the action | operation of the electrically-driven accessory 35 is linked | related with the expectation degree of jackpot lottery, the action | operation of the electrically-driven accessory 35 is set to expectations other than jackpot lottery (for example, the expectation degree of whether it is certain change). There is no problem with associating.
Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, a game for operating the electric accessory 35 is executed from when the symbol starts to change until it is confirmed and displayed. A game may be executed. In this case, as described above, the operation of the electric accessory 35 is performed based on the degree of expectation as to whether or not the “big hit state” is due to the probable variable big hit, What is necessary is just to relate with the expectation degree whether the expectation of big and small and the game state to occur after that are advantageous for a player.

Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, at the time when the first effect position Y is reached, and twice after the first effect position Y is actuated and until the second effect position Z is reached, the electric accessory 35 The winning probability related to the lottery whether or not to operate is changed, but the winning probability may be changed over three times or when the winning probability is changed without changing the winning probability It is also possible to adopt a configuration that does not relate to the result of the “big hit lottery”.
Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, a configuration is adopted in which the electric accessory 35 is rotated by a predetermined unit angle. However, for example, a predetermined unit amount protrudes stepwise toward the center of the symbol display unit 6. It is good also as an operation mode which goes (it operates linearly), and also regarding the initial position, unlike the above-mentioned embodiment, electric member 35 may be exposed, and the operation mode of electric member 35 is designed suitably. It can be changed.
In the above embodiment, the symbol display unit 6 displays the expectation level display A that associates the total operation amount from the retracted position X of the electric accessory 35 with the expectation level at which the big hit state occurs. A display unit (or display device) for displaying the expectation degree display A may be provided separately from the symbol display unit 6.

Furthermore, in addition to the stepwise operation, when the result of the lottery becomes a specific result, even if there is the first effect position Y on the way from the operation position at that time to the second effect position Z, it does not stop. There is no problem even if an effect that operates is performed, and in the above-described embodiment, the electric accessory 35 is always operated by the same unit angle. The distance or angle of movement in one operation may be gradually increased or decreased according to the position of the electric accessory 35, the number of winnings in the lottery, or the like.
Furthermore, it is not necessary to set the rear position of the warp passage 37 as the retracted position X, and there is no problem even if another position desired to be lit by the light emitting member of the electric accessory 35 is used as the retracted position. The design of the light emission mode at the retracted position can be changed as appropriate as well as the number, type, etc. (that is, there is no problem even if the light emitting member blinks at the retracted position). Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the translucent portion is provided by forming the warp passage 37 with a translucent synthetic resin. For example, the translucent hole through which the LED 38 of the electric accessory 35 in the retracted position is exposed is provided. You may provide as a translucent part. Therefore, when providing the translucent portion in the warp passage 37, the entire portion may be configured as the translucent portion, or at least a part thereof becomes the translucent portion (that is, the translucent hole is formed in the warp passage 37). Etc.), there is no problem.
In addition, in the above embodiment, a pachinko machine with a push button is adopted as a gaming machine. However, as long as it has a push button, it can be applied to other gaming machines such as a slot machine. is there.
