For example, in a display mode in which both lamps are extinguished, a memory number of 0 is displayed, in a display mode in which one lamp is lit, a memory number of 1 is displayed, and in a display mode in which the same one lamp is blinked. In the display mode in which two stored numbers are displayed, and in addition to blinking one lamp, the other lamp is lit, three stored numbers are displayed, and in the display mode in which the two lamps are flashed together, the stored number is four. For example, the individual is displayed.

  The first special symbol operation memory lamp 34a is a display mode after being incremented one by one in the sense of storing that a game ball has entered the middle start winning port 26 every time a game ball flows into the middle start winning port 26. Each time the change of the special symbol is started with the entry of the ball, the display mode is decreased by one each time. The second special symbol operation memory lamp 35a is incremented by one in the sense that each time a game ball enters the variable start winning device 28, it stores that the game ball has entered the right start winning port. It changes to the display mode (up to a maximum of 4), and changes to the display mode after being reduced one by one every time the change of the special symbol is started with the entry. In the present embodiment, when the first special symbol operation memory lamp 34a is not lit (the number of memories is 0), the middle start winning opening 26 is in a state where the first special symbol can already start to change (when stopped). Even if a game ball enters, the display mode does not change. In addition, when the second special symbol operation memory lamp 35a is not lit (the number of memories is 0), a game ball enters the variable start winning device 28 in a state where the second special symbol can already start to change (when stopped). Even if it is a sphere, the display mode does not change. That is, the number of memories (maximum of 4) represented by the display mode of each special symbol operation memory lamp 34a, 35a is the number of incoming balls for which the variation of the first special symbol or the second special symbol has not yet started. It represents the number of times.

  Next, an operation example of the movable body portion 701 will be described. FIG. 19 is a diagram illustrating an example of the operation of the movable body unit 701 when the movable accessory unit 700 is in the first configuration or the third configuration, and FIG. FIG. 21 is a diagram illustrating an operation example of the movable body unit 701 in the fourth configuration, and FIG. 21 is a diagram illustrating an operation example of the movable body unit 701 when the movable accessory unit 700 is in the fifth configuration.

  As shown in FIG. 19, the first or third form of the movable accessory unit 700 is a state in which the rotary slide link member 714 is not pushed by the upper link arm 752 or the lower link arm 758, and the movable body attaching member 402 (movable body 40f) and first to fourth blade members 704 to 710 are not rotated. The state of the movable form unit 700 in the first form or the third form is that the first opening 714m1 or the second opening 714m2 of the rotary slide link member 714 that is not pushed in is the first of the movable body base member 712. The first rotation pin 702p and the third rotation pin 708p can be held by being positioned at the reference positions of the first guide groove 712m1 and the second guide groove 712m2. Incidentally, in correspondence with the first rotation pin 702p being positioned at the reference position of the first guide groove 712m1, the second rotation pin 702q is also positioned at the reference position of the second guide groove 712n.

  As shown in FIG. 20, the second form or the fourth form of the movable accessory unit 700 is a state in which the rotary slide link member 714 is pushed by a predetermined distance by the upper link arm 752 or the lower link arm 758, While the movable body attaching member 402 (movable body 40f) is rotating, the first to fourth blade members 704 to 710 are not rotated. In the second form or the fourth form of the movable accessory unit 700, the first opening 714m1 of the rotary slide link member 714 in a state where it is pushed in about half is formed by the first guide groove 712m1 of the movable body base member 712. The second opening 714m2 can be held by positioning the third rotation pin 708p at the reference position of the second guide groove 712m2 while moving the first rotation pin 702p to an intermediate level. Specifically, when the rotary slide link member 714 is pushed by a predetermined distance, the opening width of the first opening 714m1 is about the same as the first rotary pin 702p, and thus the distance by which the rotary slide link member 714 is pushed. Only the first rotation pin 702p moves in conjunction with each other. On the other hand, since the opening width of the second opening 714m2 is approximately the same as the distance pushed in this time, it indicates that the third rotation pin 708p has not moved from the reference position. In response to the movement of the first rotation pin 702p to the middle of the first guide groove 712m1, the second rotation pin 702q also moves to the middle of the second guide groove 712n. Accordingly, by pushing the rotary slide link member 714 by a predetermined distance, the first and second rotary pins 702p, 702q are moved to the first, second without rotating the first to fourth blade members 704, 706, 708, 710. The movable body attaching member 702 can be rotated by moving in the grooves of the third guide grooves 712m1 and 712n.

The state of the fifth form of the movable accessory unit 700 is that the first opening 714m1 of the rotary slide link member 714 that is pushed in the maximum distance is first to the end of the first guide groove 712m1 of the movable body base member 712. While moving the first rotation pin 702p, the second opening 714m2 can be held by positioning the third rotation pin 708p to the end of the second guide groove 712m2. Specifically, when the rotary slide link member 714 is pushed in the maximum distance, the opening width of the first opening 714m1 is about the same as that of the first rotary pin 702p. It shows that the 1-rotation pin 702p moves in conjunction. Moreover, since it is pushed in by the distance longer than the opening width of the 2nd opening part 714m2, it represents that the 3rd rotation pin 708p moves only the distance of the difference. Incidentally, in response to the movement of the first rotation pin 702p to the end portion of the first guide groove 712m1, the second rotation pin 702q also moves to the end portion of the second guide groove 712n. Therefore, by pushing the rotary slide link member 714 for the maximum distance, the third rotation pin 708p is moved in the groove of the second guide groove 712m2, and the first to fourth blade members 704, 706, 708, 710 are rotated, The movable body mounting member 702 can be rotated by moving the first and second rotation pins 702p and 702q in the first and third guide grooves 712m1 and 712n.
