1. Structure of gaming machine A pachinko gaming machine according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following description, the left-right direction of each part of a pachinko gaming machine as an example of a gaming machine will be described in accordance with the left-right direction for a player facing the pachinko gaming machine. In addition, the front direction of each part of the pachinko gaming machine will be described as a direction approaching the player facing the pachinko gaming machine, and the backward direction of each part of the pachinko gaming machine will be described as a direction away from the player facing the pachinko gaming machine.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a pachinko gaming machine 1 according to a first embodiment includes a gaming machine frame 50 that forms an outline of the pachinko gaming machine 1, and a gaming board 2 that is attached to the inside of the gaming machine frame 50 (see FIG. 8). ). The gaming machine frame 50 includes an outer frame (corresponding to a base frame) 51 and an opening / closing frame KW. The open / close frame KW includes an inner frame (corresponding to a holding frame portion) 52 and a front frame (corresponding to a decorative frame portion, also referred to as a glass door frame) 53. The outer frame 51 is a vertical rectangular frame that forms the outline of the gaming machine frame 50. The inner frame 52 is a vertical rectangular frame that is disposed inside the outer frame 51 and to which the game board 2 is attached. The front frame 53 is disposed on the front side of the inner frame 52 and has a vertical rectangular shape that protects the game board 2. A rectangular curtain plate 51 a that is long in the left-right direction is disposed on the front side of the lower end of the outer frame 51.

  The gaming machine frame 50 includes a hinge portion 54 on the left end side. As shown in FIG. 2, the opening / closing frame KW is rotatable with respect to the outer frame 51 by the hinge portion 54. Specifically, the front frame 53 is rotatable with respect to the outer frame 51 and the inner frame 52, and the inner frame 52 is rotatable with respect to the outer frame 51 and the front frame 53, respectively. . Note that the opening / closing frame KW is open means that at least one of the inner frame 52 and the front frame 53 is open. Further, that the open / close frame KW is closed means that the inner frame 52 and the front frame 53 are also closed.

  An opening 53a is formed at the center of the front frame 53, and a transparent glass plate is attached to the opening 53a. Thereby, the player can visually recognize the game area 3 described later through the glass plate.

  In addition, the gaming machine frame 50 includes a pressing mechanism PK at the top. The pressing mechanism PK can arrange a left movable body 253, which will be described later, at the second position when the open / close frame KW is closed. As shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, the pressing mechanism PK includes a posture holding member 57 (corresponding to a base frame pressing mechanism) provided on the outer frame 51 and a pressing member provided on the inner frame 52. (Corresponding to a displacement mechanism) 58 and a movable member 59. 3A is a diagram showing a state of the pressing mechanism PK when the inner frame 52 is closed, and FIG. 3B is a diagram of the pressing mechanism PK when the inner frame 52 is opened. It is the figure which showed the state.

  The posture holding member 57 is an L-shaped member and is fixed to the upper inner side of the outer frame 51 (see FIG. 2). As shown in FIG. 3, the posture holding member 57 includes a main body portion 57A and a wall portion 57B extending from the right end of the main body portion 57A in FIG. 3 to the inner frame 52 side (the back side in the drawing). It has. The main body 57A is a part that is fixed in contact with the outer frame 51. The wall portion 57B is for contacting the movable member 59 from the left side of the movable member 59 when the inner frame 52 is closed (see FIG. 3A).

  The pressing member 58 is disposed at the upper end of the inner frame 52 (see FIG. 2). The pressing member 58 includes a plate-like main body portion 58A extending in the vertical direction in FIG. 3A and a front end portion 58B positioned at the lower end in FIG. 3A of the main body portion 58A. I have. An elongated hole 58C extending in the vertical direction in the figure is provided at the center of the main body 58A. The main body 58A is slidable in the vertical direction in FIG. 3A by two rivets RV that are fixed to the upper portion of the inner frame 52 through the elongated hole 58C. In addition, a through hole 58D is provided on the upper right side of the main body 58A in FIG. 3A. The through hole 58D is for inserting the tip of the first arm portion 59A of the movable member 59.

  The movable member 59 is disposed at the upper end of the inner frame 52 as with the pressing member 58. The movable member 59 includes a plate-like first arm portion 59A extending in the left-right direction in FIG. 3A and a left end portion of the first arm portion 59A in the front-rear direction in FIG. And a plate-like second arm portion 59B. As shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, the first arm portion 59 </ b> A is disposed above the pressing member 58. The right end of the first arm portion 59A passes through the through hole 58D of the pressing member 58. As shown in FIG. 3A, the movable member 59 has a rotation axis AX at a position between the first arm portion 59A and the second arm portion 59B. The movable member 59 is rotatable around the rotation axis AX.

  The state of the pressing mechanism PK when the inner frame 52 is closed and the state of the pressing mechanism PK when the inner frame 52 is open will be described below with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 3A, when the inner frame 52 is closed, the wall portion 57B of the posture holding member 57 contacts the second arm portion 59B of the movable member 59 from the left side in the drawing. For this reason, the second arm portion 59B of the movable member 59 cannot further rotate counterclockwise around the rotation axis AX, and the first arm portion 59A cannot rotate. That is, the movable member 59 is fixed in a posture that cannot be rotated by the posture holding member 57. Therefore, the main body portion 58A of the pressing member 58 through which the tip of the first arm portion 59A is inserted is also fixed at that position without moving backward (upward in FIG. 3A). Therefore, when the inner frame 52 is closed, the distal end portion 58B of the pressing member 58 is fixed in a state protruding forward from the edge of the inner frame 52 by the distance F1. Thus, when the open / close frame KW is closed, the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271 and the left third arm 276 are pressed by such pressing of the pressing member 58, and the left movable body 253 is moved to the second position. Can be placed. The posture holding member 57 can cause the pressing member 58 to press the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271, and the left third arm 276 when the opening / closing frame KW is closed. is there. Further, the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271, the left third arm 276, and the left movable body 253 will be described in detail later.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 3B, when the inner frame 52 is open, the second arm portion 59 </ b> B of the movable member 59 is separated from the wall portion 57 </ b> B of the posture holding member 57. Specifically, a gap is generated between the wall portion 57B of the posture holding member 57 and the rotation axis AX than when the inner frame 52 is closed. Therefore, the second arm portion 59B of the movable member 59 can rotate counterclockwise about the rotation axis AX, and the first arm portion 59A can also rotate accordingly. By this rotation, the main body portion 58A of the pressing member 58 through which the tip of the first arm portion 59A is inserted can also move rearward. Therefore, when the inner frame 52 is opened, the distal end portion 58B of the pressing member 58 protrudes forward from the edge of the inner frame 52 by a distance F2. Since this distance F2 is shorter than the distance F1 when the inner frame 52 is closed (F2 <F1), when the inner frame 52 is opened, the protruding amount of the pressing member 58 becomes relatively small, and the pressing member 58 is moved to the left movable body. It will not reach the unit 202L. Thus, when the inner frame 52 is open, the left movable body 253 described later cannot be disposed at the second position by the pressing member 58.

  Returning to FIG. 2, the front frame 53 includes a base frame 56 on the rear side. As shown in FIG. 4, the front frame 53 includes an upper decorative portion 200, a left decorative portion 410, a right decorative portion 420, and an operation mechanism portion 430 on the front side. The base frame 56 is a frame that detachably attaches the upper decorative portion 200, the left decorative portion 410, the right decorative portion 420, and the operation mechanism portion 430 on the front side.

  The upper decoration part (upper decoration part) 200 decorates the upper part of the gaming machine frame 50 (front frame 53) (see FIG. 4). As shown in FIG. 4, the upper decoration unit 200 includes a central movable body unit 201 at the center in the left-right direction, the left movable body unit 202L on the left side of the central movable body unit 201, and the right movable body unit 202R on the right side. It has. The central movable body unit 201 is a unit that assembles the movable frame body 15 so as to be movable, and is long in the front-rear direction. This embodiment is characterized by the configuration of the left movable body unit 202L and the right movable body unit 202R, and the detailed configuration of the left movable body unit 202L and the right movable body unit 202R will be described later.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the upper decoration part 200 (central movable body unit 201) is from any other part (left decoration part 410, right decoration part 420, operation mechanism part 430) attached to the base frame 56. Even projecting forward. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, the distance L1 between the front end P1 of the upper decorative portion 200 and the front surface P2 of the curtain plate 51a is equal to the front end P3 of the operation mechanism portion 430. It is more than twice the distance L2 between the curtain plate 51a and the front surface P2. Thereby, the protrusion ahead by the upper decoration part 200 is emphasized very much, and it can give a big impact compared with the conventional gaming machine frame.

  The left decoration unit 410 decorates the left part of the gaming machine frame 50 (front frame 53) (see FIG. 4). The right decoration unit 420 decorates the right part of the gaming machine frame 50 and includes a sword accessory unit 321. The sword accessory unit 321 is provided with a sword accessory 322 simulating the shape of a sword so that it can be pushed. Thus, the player is prompted to push the sword-like object 322 during an effect executed with the progress of the game.

  The operation mechanism unit 430 includes an operation mechanism for progressing games and effects. As shown in FIG. 1, the operation mechanism unit 430 includes a handle 60 for launching a game ball with a launch intensity corresponding to the rotation angle at the lower right side, and a hitting ball supply tray ( (Upper plate) 61 and a surplus ball receiving tray (lower plate) 62 for storing game balls that cannot be accommodated in the hit ball supply tray 61 on the left side of the handle 60. Further, an effect button 63 and a cross key 68 that can be operated by the player at the time of an effect executed in accordance with the progress of the game are provided in front of the upper plate 61 in the operation mechanism unit 430 (see FIG. 1).

  In the pachinko gaming machine 1 of the present embodiment, a front view is shown in FIG. 4, a right side view is shown in FIG. 5, and a plan view is shown in FIG. Here, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, a data counter 160 is arranged above the gaming machine 1 in the vertical wall surface SH standing in the vertical direction in the island facility of the game arcade. The data counter 160 includes a fixing member 161 fixed to the vertical wall surface SH, and a data display device 162 attached to the fixing member 161 so as to be tilted forward so as to be tilted.

  The data display device 162 has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape that displays the number of occurrences of a jackpot gaming state, the number of occurrences of a high probability state, etc., which will be described later. In addition, the data display device 162 has a call button or the like for the player to call the hall employee. In the data counter 160, the forward tilt angle θ1 of the data display device 162 with respect to the vertical wall surface SH can be varied from 15 degrees to 25 degrees. FIG. 5 shows a state in which the forward tilt angle θ1 of the data display device 162 is 25 degrees at the maximum.

  Further, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7, a pair of left and right left speakers 67 </ b> L and 67 </ b> R are provided on the lower side behind the upper decorative portion 200 in the gaming machine frame 50. The upper decoration unit 200, the left decoration unit 410, the right decoration unit 420, and the operation mechanism unit 430 are provided with a large number of frame lamps 66 (see FIG. 37) that can emit light in various emission colors.

  Next, the game board 2 will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 8, on the front side of the game board 2, a game surface 2a standing in the vertical direction is formed. In front of the game surface 2 a, a game area 3 in which game balls launched by the operation of the handle 60 flow down is surrounded by the rail member 4. The game board 2 is provided with a number of board lamps 5 (see FIG. 37) that can emit light in various emission colors. The game board 2 includes a plate-like member arranged on the front side and a rear unit arranged on the rear side (various control boards, a first image display device 6, a second image display device 7, a harness, etc. described later). The unit to be attached) is integrated.

  A plurality of game nails (not shown) for guiding a game ball project from the game surface 2 a of the game board 2. Further, a first image display device (first display means) 6 that is a liquid crystal display device is disposed inside the game surface 2a and behind the game surface 2a. The first image display device 6 is fixed in a standing state in the vertical direction.

  On the display screen 6a of the first image display device 6, the decorative display (effect design) 8L, 8C, 8R is displayed in synchronization with the variable display (variable display) of the first special symbol and the second special symbol described later. There is a decorative symbol display area. The decorative symbol display area includes, for example, three symbol display areas of “left”, “middle”, and “right”. A left effect symbol 8L is displayed in the left symbol display area, a middle effect symbol 8C is displayed in the middle symbol display area, and a right effect symbol 8R is displayed in the right symbol display area. Each of the decorative symbols is composed of a plurality of symbols representing numbers “1” to “9”, for example. The first image display device 6 has a first special symbol display 41a and a second special symbol display 41b (see FIG. 10), which will be described later, by a combination of left, middle, and right decorative symbols. The result of the variable display of the symbol and the second special symbol (that is, the result of the big hit lottery) is displayed in an easily understandable manner.

  For example, when winning a jackpot, the decorative symbol is stopped and displayed with a doublet such as “777”. Further, if it is out of place, the decorative symbol is stopped and displayed with a disparity such as “263”. This makes it easy for the player to grasp the progress of the game. That is, the player generally grasps the result of the jackpot lottery with the first image display device 6 rather than with the first special symbol display 41a or the second special symbol display 41b. The position of the symbol display area does not have to be fixed. In addition, as an aspect of the decorative symbol variation display, for example, there is an aspect of scrolling up and down. In addition, it is possible to arbitrarily change which combination of decorative symbols to stop and display according to each lottery result.

  The first image display device 6 is a jackpot effect performed in parallel with the jackpot game, in addition to the decorative symbol variation effect using the decorative symbol as described above (also referred to as “effect symbol variation effect” or simply “variation effect”). Or a demonstration effect for waiting for a customer is displayed on the display screen 6a. In the decorative symbol variation effect, in addition to decorative symbols such as numbers, effect images other than decorative symbols such as background images and character images are also displayed.

  The display screen 6a of the first image display device 6 includes a first effect hold display area 9a for displaying an effect hold image 9A according to the number of stored first special figure hold described later, and a second special figure hold described later. There is a second effect hold display area 9b for displaying the effect hold image 9B according to the number of stored images. The number of stored first special figure hold and the second special figure hold indicator 43b (FIG. 10) displayed on a first special figure hold indicator 43a (see FIG. 10) described later by displaying the effect hold images 9A and 9B. It is possible to easily show the number of stored second special figure holds displayed in (see) to the player.

  Further, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, a second image display device (second display means) 7 is provided above the first image display device 6. On the display screen 7 a of the second image display device 7, a background image and a character image are combined with a decorative symbol variation effect, a jackpot effect, a demonstration effect for waiting for a customer, etc. executed on the display screen 6 a of the first image display device 6. Various effect images are displayed.

  The second image display device 7 is fixed in a state inclined obliquely upward toward the front. The upper portion 7 b of the display screen 7 a of the second image display device 7 protrudes forward from the game surface 2 a of the game board 2. Thereby, it is possible to show the player the upper part 7b of the display screen 7a at a closer position. Furthermore, the upper part 7b of the display screen 7a of the second image display device 7 protrudes upward from the upper end of the game area 3 as shown in FIG. Thereby, it is possible to show the player the upper part 7b of the display screen 7a even outside the game area 3. In this way, in this embodiment, a novel display screen is formed by the display screen 6a of the first image display device 6 and the display screen 7a of the second image display device 7, and the effect image is displayed over a wide range and close to the player. It is possible to show. As a result, it is possible to increase the impact of the effect image displayed on the display screens 6a and 7a.

  As shown in FIG. 8, a center decorative body 10 is disposed near the center of the game area 3 and in front of the first image display device 6. A stage portion 11 capable of guiding a game ball rolling on the upper surface to a first starting port 20 described later is formed at the lower portion of the center decorative body 10. A warp portion 12 is provided at the lower left side of the center decorative body 10 to allow a game ball to flow in from the entrance and to flow out from the exit to the stage portion 11.

  Below the first image display device 6 in the game area 3, a fixed winning device 19 including a first starting port (first starting winning port, first winning port, fixed starting port) 20 is provided. The first start opening 20 is a winning opening where the ease of entering a game ball does not always change. The winning of the game ball to the first start port 20 is an opportunity for the lottery of the first special symbol (a jackpot lottery, that is, determination of acquisition of a jackpot random number or the like).

  Also, below the first start port 20, an ordinary variable winning device (so-called electric chew) 22 having a second start port (second start winning port, second ball opening port, variable start port) 21 is provided. . The second start opening 21 is a winning opening in which the ease of entering a game ball can be changed. In addition, the 2nd starting port 21 of this form is an opening part formed with the plane extended in the up-down direction and the front-back direction. The winning of the game ball to the second starting port 21 is an opportunity for the lottery of the second special symbol.

  The electric chew 22 includes a movable member (entrance opening / closing member) 23 that can advance and retract in the front-rear direction, and opens and closes the second starting port 21 by the operation of the movable member 23. The movable member 23 is driven by an electric chew solenoid 24 (see FIG. 36). The second starting port 21 allows a game ball to enter only when the movable member 23 advances forward (that is, when the movable member 23 is in the open state). That is, when the movable member 23 advances forward, when the game ball flowing down contacts the upper side of the movable member 23, the movable member 23 is guided to the left. As a result, the game ball can enter the second start port 21.

  On the other hand, when the second start port 21 is retracted rearward (that is, when it is in the closed state), the game ball cannot enter. That is, when the movable member 23 is retracted rearward, the flowing game ball does not contact the movable member 23. Thereby, the game ball goes to the out port 16 described later without entering the second start port 21. Note that the second start port 21 is completely open when the movable member 23 is in the closed state, as long as it is more difficult for the game ball to enter when the movable member 23 is in the closed state than in the open state. It may not be impossible to enter the ball.

  A first big prize device (first special variable prize device) 31 including a first big prize port (first special prize port) 30 is provided diagonally to the right of the first start port 20. The first big prize winning device 31 includes an opening / closing member (first special prize opening opening / closing member) 32 that takes an open state and a closed state, and opens and closes the first big prize winning opening 30 by the operation of the opening / closing member 32. The opening / closing member 32 is driven by a first big prize opening solenoid 33 (see FIG. 36). The first grand prize opening 30 allows a game ball to enter only when the opening / closing member 32 is open (that is, when it is open).

  Further, a gate (passage area) 28 through which a game ball can pass is provided above the first grand prize opening 30. The passage of the game ball to the gate 28 triggers the execution of a normal symbol lottery (that is, acquisition and determination of a normal symbol random number (per random number)) for determining whether or not to open the electric chew 22.

  In the special symbol display 41, the special symbol is variably displayed, and then the stop symbol is displayed to notify the result of the lottery (special symbol lottery, jackpot lottery) based on winning at the first starting port 20 or the second starting port 21. . The special symbol that is stopped and displayed (the special symbol that is derived and displayed as the display result of the stop symbol and variable display) is one special symbol that is selected from a plurality of types of special symbols by the special symbol lottery. When the stop symbol is a predetermined special symbol (a special symbol of a specific stop mode, that is, a jackpot symbol), the first big prize opening 30 or the opening pattern according to the type of the special symbol that is stopped and displayed A special game (a jackpot game) is performed in which the second big prize opening 35 is opened. In addition, the opening pattern of the special winning opening (the first big winning opening 30 and the second big winning opening 35) in the special game will be described later.

  The special symbol display 41 is composed of, for example, eight LEDs arranged side by side, and displays a special symbol corresponding to the result of the jackpot lottery depending on the lighting mode. For example, if you win a jackpot (one of several types of jackpots to be described later), 1, 2, from the left such as “○ ●●● ○○ ●●” (○: lit, ●: unlit) The jackpot symbol in which the fifth and sixth LEDs are lit is displayed. In the case of a loss, a lost symbol in which only the rightmost LED is lit, such as “●●●●●●● ○”, is displayed. You may employ | adopt the aspect which light-extinguishes all LED as a loss pattern. In addition, before the special symbol is stopped and displayed, the special symbol variation display (variable display) is performed over a predetermined variation time. The variation display mode is, for example, such that light repeatedly flows from left to right. In this mode, the LED is turned on. The mode of the variable display may be anything such as all the LEDs blinking at once as long as each LED is not stopped (lighted display in a specific mode).

  In this pachinko gaming machine 1, when there is a winning game ball (win ball) at the first start port 20 or the second start port 21, various random number values such as jackpot random numbers acquired for the win (winning information) ) Is temporarily stored in the special figure storage unit 85 (see FIG. 36). Specifically, if the winning is to the first starting port 20, the first special drawing is stored in the first special drawing storage unit 85 a (see FIG. 36), and if the winning is to the second starting port 21, the first special drawing is stored. It is memorize | stored in the 2nd special figure reservation memory | storage part 85b (refer FIG. 36) as 2 special figure reservation. There is an upper limit to the number of special figure reservations that can be stored in each special figure storage unit 85, and the upper limit value in this embodiment is four.

  The special figure hold stored in the special figure hold storage unit 85 is digested when a special symbol based on the special figure hold can be variably displayed. Digesting a special figure hold means that a jackpot random number corresponding to the special figure hold is determined, and a special symbol variable display for indicating the determination result is executed. Accordingly, in this pachinko gaming machine 1, when the variable display of the special symbol based on the winning of the game ball at the first starting port 20 or the second starting port 21 cannot be performed immediately after the winning, that is, the execution of the variable symbol variable display. Even if there is a prize during the execution of a special game or during a special game, the right of lottery for the prize can be reserved up to a predetermined number.

  The number of special figure hold is displayed on the special figure hold display 43. Specifically, the special figure hold indicator 43 is composed of, for example, four LEDs (see FIG. 10), and displays the number of special figure hold by turning on the LEDs by the number of special figure hold.

  The variable display of the normal symbol is performed with the passage of the game ball to the gate 28 as an opportunity. The normal symbol display 42 notifies the result of the normal symbol lottery based on the passage of the game ball to the gate 28 by variably displaying the normal symbol and then displaying the stop symbol. A normal symbol that is stopped and displayed (a normal symbol that is derived and displayed as a variable display result) is one normal symbol selected from a plurality of types of normal symbols by a normal symbol lottery. When the stop-displayed normal symbol is a predetermined specific symbol (a normal symbol of a predetermined stop mode, that is, a normal winning symbol), the second start port 21 is opened with an opening pattern corresponding to the current gaming state. An auxiliary game to be performed is performed. The opening pattern of the second start port 21 will be described later.

  The normal symbol display 42 is composed of, for example, two LEDs (see FIG. 10), and displays a normal symbol corresponding to the result of the normal symbol lottery depending on the lighting state. For example, when the lottery result is a win, a normal winning symbol in which both LEDs are lit is displayed, such as “◯◯” (◯: lit, ●: unlit). Further, when the lottery result is a loss, a normal lose symbol in which only the right LED is lit is displayed as “● ○”. You may employ | adopt the aspect which light-extinguishes all LED as a normal lose pattern. Before the normal symbol is stopped and displayed, the normal symbol variation display (variable display) is performed for a predetermined variation time. The variation display mode is, for example, a mode in which both LEDs are lit alternately. The mode of the variable display may be anything such as all the LEDs blinking at once as long as each LED is not stopped (lighted display in a specific mode).

  In the pachinko gaming machine 1, when a game ball passes to the gate 28, the value of the normal symbol random number (hit random number) acquired for the passage is stored in the universal figure storage unit 86 (see FIG. 36). Temporarily stored as figure hold. There is an upper limit to the number of pending map holds that can be stored in the saved map storage unit 86, and the upper limit value in this embodiment is four.

  The general map reservation stored in the general map storage unit 86 is digested when the variable display of the normal symbol based on the general map storage becomes possible. The digestion of the general symbol hold means that a normal symbol random number (per random number) corresponding to the general symbol hold is determined and variable symbol display for displaying the determination result is executed. Therefore, in this pachinko gaming machine 1, when the variable display of the normal symbol based on the passage of the game ball to the gate 28 cannot be performed immediately after the passage, that is, during the execution of the variable symbol display of the normal symbol or the execution of the auxiliary game Even if there is a case, the right of the normal symbol lottery for the passage can be reserved up to a predetermined number.

  The number of the general map hold is displayed on the general map hold display 44. Specifically, the general map hold indicator 44 is composed of, for example, four LEDs (see FIG. 10), and displays the number of general map holds by turning on the LEDs as many as the number of general map holds. is there.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 14, a latch structure 240 is disposed inside the right base cover 231, in front of the right base body 211, and to the left of the right first arm 221. The protrusion 243T of the rotating arm 243 exposed from the latch structure 240 is inserted from the left into the elongated hole 212C of the first right arm 221 as described above.

  Next, the latch structure 240 will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 15, the latch structure 240 includes a case substrate portion 241, a case surrounding portion 242, a rotating arm 243, a plate member 244, a shaft member 245, and a coil spring 246.

  The case substrate portion 241 forms a case of the latch structure 240 together with the case surrounding portion 242. Inside the case substrate 241, there are provided a first fixing portion 241 </ b> A and a second fixing portion 241 </ b> B each having a cylindrical rod shape extending from the upper left to the lower right in the drawing. Specifically, the first fixing portion 241A and the second fixing portion 241B extend in parallel to the axial direction of the shaft member 245 in the latch structure 240. The first fixing portion 241A is inserted through the first insertion hole 244A of the plate member 244 by the latch structure 240. The second fixing portion 241 </ b> B is inserted through the second insertion hole 244 </ b> B of the plate member 244 by the latch structure 240.

  The case substrate portion 241 is provided with a substrate-side bearing 241C at a position between the first fixing portion 241A and the second fixing portion 241B. The substrate-side bearing 241C has a shape recessed in a bottomed cylindrical shape, and the tip of the shaft member 245 can enter.

  The case surrounding portion 242 has a first insertion hole 242A for inserting the tip of the first fixing portion 241A of the case substrate portion 241 and a second insertion hole 242B for inserting the tip of the second fixing portion 241B.

The surrounding bearing 242C has a shape recessed in a bottomed cylindrical shape, and the tip of the shaft member 245 can enter.

  In FIG. 15, the plate member 244 is provided with a first insertion hole 244A on the upper left side and a second insertion hole 244B on the lower right side. The first insertion hole 244A is for inserting the first fixing portion 241A of the case substrate portion 241, and the second insertion hole 244B is for inserting the second fixing portion 241B.

  As shown in FIG. 15, the plate member 244 is arranged in a state perpendicular to the axial direction of the shaft member 245 in the latch structure 240. The shaft member 245 is inserted into the plurality of insertion holes (the first insertion hole 244A and the second insertion hole 244B) of the plate member 244 through the fixing portions (the first fixing portion 241A and the second fixing portion 241B), respectively. It is possible to prevent the plate member 244 from moving in the direction orthogonal to the shaft member 245 along with the rotation of the rotation arm 243 around the center.

  In addition, the plate member 244 is provided with a raised portion 244R that protrudes in a disk shape from the upper left side to the lower right side in the drawing at a position between the first insertion hole 244A and the second insertion hole 244B. A plate-side through hole 244C that can penetrate the shaft member 245 is formed at the center of the raised portion 244R, and a plurality of plate-side surface protrusions 244K are formed on the peripheral surface of the raised portion 244R (see FIG. 15). ).

  As shown in FIG. 15, the plate-side surface protrusion 244 </ b> K protrudes toward the rotating arm 243. Specifically, it has a mountain shape composed of two slope portions 244S and a top portion 244T.

  In the plate member 244, the inner diameter of the first insertion hole 244A is larger than the outer diameter of the columnar first fixing portion 241A, and the inner diameter of the second insertion hole 244B is the same as that of the columnar second fixing portion 241B. It is larger than the outer diameter. Further, the inner diameter of the plate-side through hole 244C is made larger than the outer diameter of the shaft member 245. For this reason, the plate member 244 can move along the axial direction of the shaft member 245 in the latch structure 240.

  The rotating arm 243 is positioned at the lower end of the arm portion 243X extending in the vertical direction in FIG. 15 and the lower end of the arm portion 243X, and the protruding portion 243T protruding from the arm portion 243X to the lower right side in FIG. And an abutting end portion 243Z located at the upper end. The protrusion 243T has a cylindrical shape that can be inserted into the elongated hole 221C of the right first arm 221 described above.

  The contact end portion 243Z is a portion that contacts the raised portion 244R of the plate member 244. The contact end portion 243Z has a circular shape having the same diameter as the raised portion 244R of the plate member 244. An arm side through hole 243C that can penetrate the shaft member 245 is formed in the center of the contact end portion 243Z. A plurality of arm-side surface protrusions 243K are formed on the periphery of the surface facing the plate member 244 (see FIG. 15).

  As shown in FIG. 15, the arm-side surface protrusion 243K protrudes toward the plate member 244 side. Specifically, like the plate-side surface protrusion 244K described above, it has a mountain shape composed of two slope portions 243M and a top portion 243N.

  In this embodiment, the plate-side surface protrusion 244K and the arm-side surface protrusion 243K are engaged with each other. That is, the arm-side surface protrusion 243K is disposed between the adjacent plate-side surface protrusions 244K, and the plate-side surface protrusion 244K is disposed between the adjacent arm-side surface protrusions 243K. As described above, when the plate-side surface protrusion 244K and the arm-side surface protrusion 243K are engaged with each other, the rotation arm 243 is less likely to rotate around the shaft member 245 than when the plate-side surface protrusion 243K is engaged.

  The coil spring 246 is for biasing the plate member 244. In the latch structure 240, the coil spring 246 is disposed between the case substrate portion 241 and the plate member 244 with the shaft member 245 inserted. At this time, the shaft member 245 is arranged in a compressed state in the axial direction (specifically, a state compressed more than the natural length shown in FIG. 15). Therefore, in the latch structure 240, the coil spring 246 can be urged from the upper left side to the lower right side in the drawing with respect to the plate member 244. Therefore, in the latch structure 240, when the arm-side surface protrusion 243K and the plate-side surface protrusion 244K are engaged with each other, the plate member 244 is moved toward the rotating arm 243 by the bias of the coil spring 246, and the arm side The engagement between the surface protrusions 243K and the plate-side surface protrusions 244K is difficult to be released.

  In this embodiment, the coil spring 246 when the arm-side surface protrusion 243K and the arm-side surface protrusion 244K are engaged with each other is further compressible along the axial direction of the shaft member 245. Specifically, in the latch structure 240, the coil spring 246 can further compress the separation distance between the plate member 244 and the case substrate portion 241 when the arm-side surface protrusion 243K and the plate-side surface protrusion 244K are engaged with each other. It ’s a good distance.

  When the arm arm surface projection 243K and the plate surface projection 244K are engaged with each other, when the pivot arm 243 starts to pivot about the shaft member 245, the inclined surface portion 243M of the arm surface projection 243K becomes the plate surface projection. The slope portion 244M of 244K is pressed. Note that both the inclined surface portion 243M of the arm-side surface protrusion 243K and the inclined surface portion 244M of the plate-side surface protrusion 244K are inclined with respect to the moving direction (rotating direction) of the rotating arm. Further, as described above, the plate member 244 having the plate-side surface protrusion 244K is movable in the axial direction. Further, the coil spring 246 when the surface protrusions 243K and 244K are engaged with each other can be further compressed along the axial direction of the shaft member 245. Accordingly, the pressing force applied to the inclined surface portion 244M of the plate-side surface protrusion 244K by the inclined surface portion 243M of the arm-side surface protrusion 243K moves the plate member 244 to the case substrate portion 241 side against the urging force of the coil spring 246. However, the rotating arm 243 rotates.

  Further, when the rotation of the rotation arm 243 continues and the top portion 243N of the arm-side surface protrusion 243K exceeds the top portion 244N of the plate-side surface protrusion 244K, the plate-side surface protrusion 244K is formed by the inclined surface portion 243M of the arm-side surface protrusion 243K. The pressing force to the inclined surface portion 243M is eliminated, and the rotating arm 243 is rotated by the biasing force of the coil spring 246 so that the arm-side surface protrusion 243K and the plate-side surface protrusion 244K are engaged with each other. Thus, the latch structure 240 can move by one protrusion of the arm-side surface protrusion 243K.

  In the present embodiment, the right movable body 203 is disposed at the first position, the second position, or the third position, as shown in FIG. The first position is a position where the right movable body 203 is in an upright state. That is, it is a position where the front surface portion 301F is directed forward. The second position is a position where the right movable body 203 is inclined downward from the rear to the front. That is, it is a position tilted downward from the first position at an angle θ2 (specifically, 24 degrees) and from the rear to the front. The third position corresponds to an intermediate position between the first position and the second position. That is, the position is tilted from the first position to the angle θ3 (specifically, 12 degrees) and from the rear to the front. Further, the angle θ4 (specifically, 12 degrees) from the second position is a position that rises upward from the front to the rear.

  In this embodiment, the right movable body 203 can be displaced between the first position and the third position by the movement of one protrusion of the arm-side surface protrusion 243K (plate-side surface protrusion 244K) of the latch structure 240. It has become. Further, the right movable body 203 can be displaced between the second position and the third position. Further, the right movable body 203 can be displaced between the first position and the second position by movement of two protrusions of the arm-side surface protrusion 243K (plate-side surface protrusion 244K) of the latch structure 240. .

At this time, one end of the torsion spring SP is locked inside the first reinforcing arm 281, and the other end is locked inside the second reinforcing arm 286. By such a torsion spring SP, the first reinforcing arm 281 and the second reinforcing arm 286 are more likely to be bent than the bent state at the second tip portion 281Y and the first tip portion 286M. That is, when the first reinforcing arm 281 and the second reinforcing arm 286 are bent at the second tip portion 281Y and the first tip portion 286M, the biasing force of the torsion spring SP is applied to the first reinforcing arm 281 and the second reinforcing arm 286. 2 Working on the reinforcing arm 286, the second tip 281Y and the first tip 286M are not bent.

  Therefore, for example, in the state where the first reinforcing arm 281 and the second reinforcing arm 286 are bent at the second tip portion 281Y and the first tip portion 286M shown in FIGS. The first reinforcing arm 281 and the second reinforcing arm 286 are biased so that the arm 281 and the second reinforcing arm 286 are not bent. For this reason, as shown in FIGS. 23 and 24, when the first reinforcing arm 281 and the second reinforcing arm 286 are bent, the second reinforcing arm 286 presses the left movable body 253 from the rear to the front. become. In other words, in this embodiment, in the state shown in FIG. 23 and the state shown in FIG. 24, the left movable body 253 is applied with a force that falls forward to the second position.

  Returning to FIG. 22, the left base cover 291 is disposed surrounding the upper portion of the first base body 262 of the left base body 261. When the left movable body 253 is in the first position, which is an upright position, the back surface 253Y of the left movable body 253 is positioned immediately in front of the left base cover 291.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 21, 23, and 24, a pressed portion 266 </ b> T of the left first arm 266 and a first tip portion 271 </ b> P of the left second arm 271 are arranged inside the left base cover 291. ing.

  The pedestal 295 includes a plate-shaped pedestal main body portion 295B and a support portion 295E extending downward from the pedestal main body portion 295B in FIG. The left movable body 253 is fixedly arranged on the upper side of the pedestal main body portion 295B in the drawing. Further, as described above, the support portion 295E is rotatable with respect to the first base body portion 261 and the left third arm 276. Therefore, the pedestal 295 can change its posture along with the displacement (movement) of the left movable body 253. The posture of the base 295 due to the displacement (movement) of the left movable body 253 will be described in detail later.

  The state of the left base portion 260 when the pressed portion 266T is not pressed by the pressing member 58 and when it is pressed will be described with reference to FIGS. 23 and 24. As shown in FIG. 23, when the inner frame 52 is open and the pressed portion 266T is not pressed by the pressing member 58, the pressed portion 266T of the left first arm 266 is disposed most rearward. For this reason, since the left first arm 266 does not press the left second arm 271 forward, the left second arm 271 is pulled downward by the coil spring 299. In this state, the second connecting portion 276J of the left third arm 276 is not lifted upward, so the tip 276G of the left third arm 276 holds the base 295 in the first posture. A 1st attitude | position refers to the attitude | position which makes the left movable body 253 the 1st position which will be in the upright state. The state of the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271 and the left third arm 276 shown in FIG. 23 is also referred to as a “first state”.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 24, when the inner frame 52 is closed and the pressed portion 266T is pressed by the pressing member 58, the left first arm 266 moves forward accordingly, and the left second arm 271 is moved. Press forward. Then, the left second arm 271 moves forward against the tension of the coil spring 299, and the second connection portion 276J of the left third arm 276 is lifted upward (see FIG. 24). Thereby, the front-end | tip part 276G of the left 3rd arm 276 changes the base 295 to a 2nd attitude | position. A 2nd attitude | position refers to the attitude | position which makes the left movable body 253 the 2nd position used as the state which inclined downward from the back to the front. The state of the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271 and the left third arm 276 shown in FIG. 24 is also referred to as a “second state”. The second position is a position where the left movable body 253 is tilted downward from the first position at an angle θ5 (specifically, 24 degrees) from the rear to the front.

  In this embodiment, the pedestal 295 has the left movable body 253 from the second position to the first position when the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271 and the left third arm 276 are in the second state shown in FIG. Can be changed from the second posture to the first posture together with the displacement. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 25, even if the left movable body 253 moves rearward, the pedestal 295 rotates about the pedestal connection portion 263X and moves from the distal end portion 276G of the left third arm 276. Separate. At this time, the second state can be maintained for the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271 and the left third arm 276 (see FIG. 25). The pressing member 58 can also hold the pressed portion 266T.

  Therefore, even if the left movable body 253 in the second position is intentionally displaced to the first position by the player, for example, the second left arm 266, the left second arm 271 and the left third arm 276 are second. It is possible to keep the state where the pressed member 266T of the left first arm 266 is pressed with respect to the pressing member 58. That is, even when such a displacement occurs in the left movable body 253 at the second position, an excessive force is applied to the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271, the left third arm 276, and the pressing member 58. It is possible to prevent problems from occurring.

  Next, the displacement of the left movable body 253 accompanying the opening / closing of the opening / closing frame KW will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 26D, when the front frame 53 of the open / close frame KW is open, the left movable body 253 is in the first position (see FIG. 26A). This is because the pressed portion 266T of the left first arm 266 is not pressed against the pressing member 58 because the front frame 53 is open, and the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271 and the left third arm 276 are This is because it is in the first state (FIG. 23).

  As shown in FIG. 26E, when the open front frame 53 is closed (however, when the inner frame 52 is also closed), the left movable body 253 is displaced from the first position to the second position (FIG. 26 (B)). This is because the pressed portion 266T of the left first arm 266 is pressed by the pressing member 58 when the front frame 53 is closed, and the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271 and the left third arm 276 are pressed. Is in the second state (FIG. 24).

  When the front frame 53 is opened when the left movable body 253 is in the second position (see FIG. 26F), the left movable body 253 is displaced from the second position to the first position (see FIG. 26C). ). This is because when the front frame 53 is opened, the pressed portion 266T of the left first arm 266 is not pressed by the pressing member 58, and the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271 and the left third arm 276 are the first. This is because the state (FIG. 23) is entered.

  26, the displacement of the left movable body 253 accompanying opening / closing of the front frame 53 in the opening / closing frame KW has been described. However, the left movable body 253 accompanying opening / closing of the inner frame 52 of the opening / closing frame KW is described. The displacement is as follows.

  That is, regardless of whether the front frame 53 is opened or closed, when the inner frame 52 is open, the left movable body 253 is in the first position (see FIG. 26A). This is because the pressed portion 266T of the left first arm 266 is not pressed against the pressing member 58 because the inner frame 52 is open, and the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271 and the left third arm 276 are not pressed. This is because it is in the first state (FIG. 23).

  When the opened inner frame 52 is closed (however, when the front frame 53 is also closed), the left movable body 253 is displaced from the first position to the second position (see FIG. 26B). This is because the pressed portion 266T of the left first arm 266 is pressed by the pressing member 58 when the inner frame 52 is closed, and the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271 and the left third arm 276 are pressed. Is in the second state (FIG. 24).

  When the inner frame 52 is opened when the left movable body 253 is in the second position, the left movable body 253 is displaced to the first position (see FIG. 26C). This is because when the inner frame 52 is opened, the pressed portion 266T of the left first arm 266 is not pressed by the pressing member 58, and the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271 and the left third arm 276 are the first. This is because the state (FIG. 23) is entered.

4). Configuration of movable body (right movable body 203, left movable body 253) Next, the movable body (right movable body 203, left movable body 253) will be described with reference to FIGS.

  Further, as the solenoids, an electric chew solenoid 24, a first big prize opening solenoid 33, a second big prize opening solenoid 38 and a sorting member solenoid 73 are connected. The electric chew solenoid 24 drives the movable member 23 of the electric chew 22. The first big prize opening solenoid 33 drives the opening / closing member 32 of the first big prize winning device 31. The second big prize opening solenoid 38 drives the opening / closing member 37 of the second big prize winning device 36. The distribution member solenoid 73 is for driving the distribution member 71 of the second big winning device 36.

  Further, the main control board 80 is connected with a first special symbol display 41a, a second special symbol display 41b, a normal symbol display 42, a first special symbol hold indicator 43a, and a second special figure hold indicator 43b. ing. That is, display control of these display devices 40 is performed by the game control microcomputer 81.

  The main control board 80 transmits various commands to the payout control board 110 and receives signals from the payout control board 110 for payout monitoring. The payout control board 110 has a prize ball payout device 120, a ball payout device 130, and a card unit 135 (installed adjacent to the pachinko gaming machine 1, enabling ball lending based on information such as an inserted prepaid card. Are connected to each other, and a launching device 112 is connected via a launch control circuit 111. The launcher 112 includes a handle 60 (see FIG. 1).

  The payout control board 110 drives the prize ball motor 121 of the prize ball payout device 120 based on a signal from the game control microcomputer 81 and a signal from the card unit 135 connected to the pachinko gaming machine 1 to win a prize ball. Or the ball rental motor 131 of the ball rental device 130 is driven to pay out the ball. The prize balls to be paid out are detected by the prize ball sensor 122 for counting. In addition, the paid-out ball rental is detected by the ball rental sensor 132 for counting. When the player operates the handle 60 (see FIG. 1) of the launch device 112, the touch switch 114 detects contact with the handle 60, and the launch volume 115 detects the amount of rotation of the handle 60. Then, the launch motor 113 is driven so that the game ball is launched with a strength corresponding to the magnitude of the detection signal of the launch volume 115. In this pachinko gaming machine 1, a single game ball is launched in about 0.6 seconds.

  The main control board 80 transmits various commands to the sub control board 90. The connection between the main control board 80 and the sub control board 90 is a unidirectional communication connection that can only transmit signals from the main control board 80 to the sub control board 90. That is, between the main control board 80 and the sub-control board 90, a unidirectional circuit (not shown) as a communication direction regulating means (for example, a circuit using a diode) is interposed.

  As shown in FIG. 37, on the sub-control board 90, an effect control one-chip microcomputer (hereinafter referred to as “effect control microcomputer”) 91 for controlling the effect of the pachinko gaming machine 1 according to a program is mounted. The effect control microcomputer 91 includes a ROM 93 that stores a program for controlling the effect as the game progresses, a RAM 94 that is used as a work memory, a CPU 92 that executes a program stored in the ROM 93, and a data and signal An I / O port unit (input / output circuit) 97 for performing input / output is included. The ROM 93 may be externally attached.

  As shown in FIG. 37, an image control board 100, an audio control board 106, a lamp control board 107, and a frame relay board 99 are connected to the sub control board 90. The effect control microcomputer 91 of the sub control board 90 causes the CPU 102 of the image control board 100 to perform display control of the first image display device 6 and the second image display device 7 based on the command received from the main control board 80. . The RAM 104 of the image control board 100 is a memory for developing image data. The ROM 103 of the image control board 100 stores still image data and moving image data displayed on the first image display device 6 and the second image display device 7, specifically, characters, items, figures, characters, numbers, symbols, and the like ( Image data such as decorative images) and background images are stored. The CPU 102 of the image control board 100 reads out image data from the ROM 103 based on a command from the effect control microcomputer 91. Then, display control is executed based on the read image data.

  Further, the effect control microcomputer 91 outputs voice, music, sound effect, etc. from the speaker 67 (left speaker 67L, right speaker 67R) via the voice control board 106 based on the command received from the main control board 80. Acoustic data such as voice output from the speaker 67 is stored in the ROM 93 of the sub-control board 90. Note that a CPU may be mounted on the voice control board 106, and in that case, the CPU may execute voice control. Further, in this case, a ROM may be mounted on the voice control board 106, and acoustic data may be stored in the ROM. Further, the speaker 67 may be connected to the image control board 100, and the CPU 102 of the image control board 100 may execute sound control. Further, in this case, acoustic data may be stored in the ROM 103 of the image control board 100.

  The effect control microcomputer 91 performs lighting control of lamps such as the frame lamp 66 and the panel lamp 5 through the lamp control board 107 based on the command received from the main control board 80. In detail, the production control microcomputer 91 creates light emission pattern data (also referred to as data for determining lighting / extinction and light emission color, or lamp data) that determines the light emission mode of the lamps such as the frame lamp 66 and the panel lamp 5 to emit light. Light emission of lamps such as the frame lamp 66 and the panel lamp 5 is controlled according to the pattern data. Note that data stored in the ROM 93 of the sub-control board 90 is used to create the light emission pattern data.

  Further, the effect control microcomputer 91 operates the movable frame body 15 (see FIG. 37) connected to the frame relay board 99 based on the command received from the main control board 80. The effect control microcomputer 91 creates operation pattern data (also referred to as drive data) that determines the operation mode of the movable frame body 15 and controls the operation of the movable frame body 15 according to the operation pattern data. Data stored in the ROM 93 of the sub-control board 90 is used to create the operation pattern data.

  Further, the effect button detection switch (SW) 63a and the cross key detection switch 68a are connected to the frame relay board 99. The effect button detection switch 63a detects that the effect button 63 (see FIG. 1) has been pressed. When the effect button 63 is pressed, a detection signal is output from the effect button detection switch 63a to the sub-control board 90. The cross key detection switch 68a detects that the cross key 68 (see FIG. 1) has been operated. When various buttons constituting the cross key 68 (“up button”, “down button”, “right button”, “left button”) are operated, a detection signal corresponding to the operation is sent from the cross key detection switch 68a to the sub key. Output to the control board 90.

  Note that a CPU may be mounted on the lamp control board 107, and in that case, the CPU may execute lamp lighting control. Alternatively, the movable frame body 600 may be connected to the lamp control board 107 so that the lamp control board 107 controls the operation of the movable frame body 15. Further, in this case, a ROM may be mounted on the lamp control board 107, and data relating to the light emission pattern and the operation pattern may be stored in the ROM.

6). Description of jackpot etc. In the pachinko gaming machine 1 of the present embodiment, there are “hits” and “off” as a result of the jackpot lottery (special symbol lottery). In the case of “hit”, the “hit symbol” is stopped and displayed on the special symbol display 41. In the case of “missing”, the “design symbol” is stopped and displayed on the special symbol display 41. When winning a jackpot, the winning prize opening (the first winning prize opening 30 and the second winning prize opening 35) is opened with an opening pattern corresponding to the type of special symbol (the type of jackpot) that is stopped and displayed. Is executed. The jackpot game is an example of a special game.

  In this embodiment, the jackpot game is a multi-round game (unit open game), an opening before the first round game is started (also referred to as OP), and an ending after the last round game is completed (Also expressed as ED). Each round game starts with the end of OP or the end of the previous round game, and ends with the start of the next round game or the start of ED. The closing time (interval time) of the big prize opening between round games is included in the open round game before the closing.

  There are several types of jackpots. The types of jackpots are as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 38, in this embodiment, there are roughly two types of jackpots (V long jackpot and V short jackpot). The “V long jackpot” is a jackpot for operating the opening / closing member 32 and the opening / closing member 37 in a first opening pattern (V long opening pattern) that allows the game ball to easily pass through the specific area 39 during the jackpot game. . The “V short jackpot” is a jackpot for operating the opening / closing member 32 and the opening / closing member 37 in a second opening pattern (V short opening pattern) in which it is impossible or difficult to pass the game ball to the specific area 39 during the jackpot game. is there.

  More specifically, “V long jackpot” has a total number of rounds of 16R (see FIG. 38). From 1R to 13R and 15R, the first grand prize opening 30 is opened for a maximum of 29.5 seconds per 1R. 14R and 16R open the second grand prize opening 35 for a maximum of 29.5 seconds per 1R. In these 14R and 16R, passage to the specific area 39 in the second big winning opening 35 is easily possible.

  On the other hand, “V short jackpot” has a total number of rounds of 16R, but a substantial total number of rounds is 13R (see FIG. 39). In other words, from 1R to 13R, the first big prize opening 30 is opened for a maximum of 29.5 seconds per 1R, but at 15R, the first big prize opening 30 is opened only for 0.1 seconds per 1R, and 14R and Even at 16R, the second grand prize opening 35 is opened only for 0.1 seconds per 1R. Therefore, in this V short jackpot, from 14R to 16R, the opening time of the big winning opening is extremely short, and it is a round in which a prize ball cannot be expected. That is, the V short jackpot is a substantial jackpot of 13R.

  In addition, in 14R and 16R in the V short jackpot, the second grand prize opening 35 is opened, but the opening time is extremely short, and it is almost impossible for the game ball to pass through the specific area 39 in the second big prize opening 35. It is possible. At 14R and 16R in the V short jackpot, not only the opening time of the second big prize opening 35 is short, but also the opening timing of the second big prize opening 35 and the operation timing of the distribution member 71 (second state ( From the relationship with the first state (see FIG. 9 (B)) to the first state (see FIG. 9 (A)), it is almost impossible for the game ball to pass through the specific area 39. .

  In the pachinko gaming machine 1 of the present embodiment, based on the passing of the game ball to the specific area 39 in the jackpot game, the gaming state after the jackpot game is shifted to a high probability state to be described later. Therefore, when the above-mentioned V long jackpot is won, the game state after the jackpot game can be shifted to the high probability state by passing the game ball to the specific area 39 during the execution of the jackpot game. On the other hand, when the V short jackpot is won, the game ball cannot be passed to the specific area 39 while the jackpot game is being executed. Therefore, the game state after the jackpot game is a normal probability state described later. (Non-high probability state).

  As shown in FIG. 38, the jackpot allocation rate in the lottery of the first special symbol (special diagram 1) is 50% for the V long jackpot and 50% for the V short jackpot. On the other hand, the jackpots won in the lottery of the second special symbol (special chart 2) are all V long jackpots. In other words, when a big win is won by a lottery based on a winning to the second starting port 21 that can be entered by executing electric support control, which will be described later, the V long jackpot is always made. Thus, in this pachinko gaming machine 1, the game ball is won at the second start port 21 rather than the big hit lottery (the lottery of the first special symbol) performed by winning the game ball at the first start port 20. The jackpot lottery (the second special symbol lottery) is set to be more advantageous for the player.

  Here, in the present pachinko gaming machine 1, the lottery for determining whether or not the jackpot is won is performed based on the “big hit random number”, and the lottery for the type of winning jackpot is performed based on the “big hit type random number”. As shown in FIG. 40A, the jackpot random number takes a value in the range of 0 to 65535. The jackpot type random number takes a value in the range of 0-9. In addition to the jackpot random number and the jackpot type random number, the random numbers acquired based on the winning at the first starting port 20 or the second starting port 21 include “reach random number” and “variation pattern random number”.

  The reach random number is a random number that determines whether or not a reach is generated in the effect design variation effect indicating the result when the result of the jackpot determination is out of place. Reach is a state where there is only one effect symbol that is variably displayed among a plurality of effect symbols (decorative symbols), and depending on which symbol the effect symbol that is variably displayed is stopped and displayed. It is a state (for example, a state of “7 ↓ 7”) that is a combination of effect symbols indicating a big win. It should be noted that the effect symbols that are stopped and displayed in the reach state may be displayed as if they are slightly shaken in the display screen 7a. This reach random number takes a value in the range of 0-127.

  The variation pattern random number is a random number for determining a variation pattern including a variation time. The fluctuation pattern random number takes a value in the range of 0 to 127. In addition, the random number acquired based on the passage through the gate 28 includes a normal symbol random number (per hit random number) shown in FIG. The normal symbol random number is a random number for a lottery (ordinary symbol lottery) for determining whether or not to perform an auxiliary game for opening the electric chew 22. Normal design random numbers take values in the range of 0-255.

7). Description of the gaming state Next, the gaming state of the pachinko gaming machine 1 of the present embodiment will be described. The special symbol display 41 and the normal symbol display 42 of the pachinko gaming machine 1 each have a probability variation function and a variation time shortening function. A state in which the probability variation function of the special symbol display 41 is activated is referred to as a “high probability state”, and a state in which it is not activated is referred to as a “normal probability state (non-high probability state)”. In the high probability state, the jackpot probability is higher than in the normal probability state. That is, the jackpot determination is performed using a jackpot determination table in which the value of the jackpot random number determined to be a jackpot is larger than the jackpot determination table used in the normal probability state (see FIG. 41A). That is, when the probability variation function of the special symbol display 41 is activated, the probability that the display result of the special symbol variable display by the special symbol display 41 (that is, the stop symbol) becomes a jackpot symbol compared to when the special symbol display 41 is not activated. Becomes higher.

  In addition, a state in which the function for reducing the variation time of the special symbol display 41 is in operation is referred to as “time-short state”, and a state in which the special symbol display 41 is not in operation is referred to as “non-time-short state”. In the short-time state, the variation time of the special symbol (the time from the start of variation display to the time when the display result is derived and displayed) is shorter than in the non-short-time state. That is, the variation pattern is determined using a variation pattern table that is determined so that the variation pattern having a short variation time is selected more than in the non-temporal state (see FIG. 42). That is, when the function for shortening the variation time of the special symbol display device 41 is activated, it is easy to select a short variation time as the variation time of the variable symbol special display, compared to when the special symbol display 41 is not activated. As a result, in the short-time state, the special-patch holding pace is accelerated, and an effective winning (a winning that can be stored as a special-pending hold) at the starting port is likely to occur. Therefore, it is possible to aim for a big hit with smooth progress of the game.

  The probability variation function and the variation time shortening function of the special symbol display 41 may be activated at the same time, or only one of them may be activated. The probability variation function and the variation time shortening function of the normal symbol display 42 operate in synchronization with the variation time shortening function of the special symbol display 41. That is, the probability variation function and the variation time shortening function of the normal symbol display 42 operate in the time-short state and do not operate in the non-time-short state. Therefore, in the short time state, the winning probability in the normal symbol lottery is higher than in the non-short time state. In other words, a hit determination (ordinary symbol determination) is performed using a normal symbol per-decision table having more normal symbol random numbers (per hit random) determined to be hit than a normal symbol per-decision table used in a non-time-saving state ( FIG. 41C). That is, when the probability variation function of the normal symbol display 42 is activated, the probability that the display result of the variable symbol normal display by the normal symbol display 42 becomes the normal winning symbol is higher than when the normal symbol display 42 is not activated. .

  In the short time state, the normal symbol fluctuation time is shorter than in the non-short time state. In this embodiment, the variation time of the normal symbol is 30 seconds in the non-short-time state, but is 1 second in the short-time state (see FIG. 41D). Furthermore, in the time-saving state, the opening time of the electric chew 22 in the auxiliary game is longer than that in the non-time-saving state (see FIG. 43). That is, the open time extension function of the electric chew 22 is activated. In addition, in the short time state, the number of times the electric chew 22 is opened in the auxiliary game is larger than in the non-short time state (see FIG. 43). That is, the function of increasing the number of times the electric chew 22 is opened is activated.

  In the situation where the probability variation function and the variation time shortening function of the normal symbol display 42 and the opening time extension function and the opening number increase function of the electric chew 22 are activated, compared with the case where these functions are not activated. Thus, the electric chew 22 is frequently opened, and game balls frequently win the second starting port 21. As a result, the base, which is the ratio of the number of prize balls to the number of shot balls, becomes high. Therefore, a state in which these functions are activated is referred to as a “high base state”, and a state in which these functions are not activated is referred to as a “low base state”. In the high base state, it is possible to aim for a big hit without greatly reducing the hand-held game balls. The high base state is a state in which so-called electric support control (control to support winning at the second starting port 21 by the electric chew 22) is executed.

  In the high base state (electric support control state), not all the functions described above may operate. That is, one or more functions of the probability changing function of the normal symbol display 42, the changing time shortening function of the normal symbol display 42, the opening time extending function of the electric chew 22, and the opening frequency increasing function of the electric chew 22 are provided. It suffices that the electric chew 22 is easily opened by the operation as compared to when the function is not operated. Further, the high base state (electric support control state) may be independently controlled without accompanying the time-short state.

  In the pachinko gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the gaming state after the jackpot game by winning the V long jackpot is a high probability state, a short time state, and a high base if the game is passed to the specific area 39 during the jackpot game. State. This gaming state is particularly referred to as a “highly accurate base state”. The high-accuracy base state is terminated when a special symbol variable display is executed a predetermined number of times (160 times in this embodiment), or when the jackpot is won and the jackpot game is executed.

  In addition, the game state after the jackpot game by winning the V short jackpot is a normal probability state (non-high probability state, i.e., if the specific area 39 is not passed during the jackpot game). A low probability state), a short time state, and a high base state. This gaming state is particularly referred to as a “low probability and high base state”. The low-accuracy base state ends when a special symbol variable display is executed a predetermined number of times (100 times in this embodiment), or when the jackpot is won and the jackpot game is executed.

  When the pachinko gaming machine 1 is played for the first time, the gaming state after power-on is a normal probability state, a non-time-short state, and a low base state (non-electric support control state). This gaming state is particularly referred to as a “low probability low base state”. The low probability low base state may be referred to as a “normal game state”. A state in which a special game (a jackpot game) is being executed is referred to as a “special game state (a jackpot game state)”. Furthermore, a state controlled to at least one of a high probability state and a high base state is referred to as a “specific game state”.

  In a high base state such as a high-accuracy high-base state or a low-accuracy high-base state, it is possible to advance the game more advantageously if the game ball is advanced to the right game area 3B (see FIG. 8) by hitting right. This is because the electric support 22 makes it easier to open the electric chew 22 than in the low base state, and it is easier to win the second starting port 21 than to win the first starting port 20. . Therefore, the player makes a right turn to win the game ball at the second starting port 21 while passing the game ball to the gate 28 which is a trigger for the normal symbol lottery. As a result, it is possible to obtain a large number of start prizes (win prizes at the start opening) rather than left-handed. In this pachinko gaming machine 1, a right-handed game is played even during a big hit game.

  On the other hand, in the low base state, it is possible to advance the game more advantageously by making the game ball enter the left game area 3A (see FIG. 8) by left-handed. Since the electric support control is not executed, the electric chew 22 is less likely to be opened than in the high base state, and it is easier to win the first start port 20 than to win the second start port 21. Because it is. Therefore, a left turn is made to win a game ball in the first starting port 20. As a result, it is possible to obtain a larger number of start prizes than right-handed.

8). Operation of Pachinko Gaming Machine 1 Next, the operation of the game control microcomputer 81 will be described based on FIG. 44, and the operation of the effect control microcomputer 91 will be described based on FIGS. First, the operation of the game control microcomputer 81 will be described.

  [Main Side Timer Interrupt Processing] The game control microcomputer 81 repeats the main side timer interrupt processing shown in FIG. 44 every short time, for example, 4 msec. First, the game control microcomputer 81 determines the jackpot random number used for the jackpot lottery, the hit type random number for determining the jackpot type, the reach random number for determining whether or not to reach the reach state in the decorative symbol variation effect, and the variation pattern. The random number update process is performed to update the fluctuation pattern random number, the normal symbol random number (per random number) used for the normal symbol lottery (S101). Note that at least a part of each random number may be a so-called hardware random number generated using a known random number generation circuit including a counter IC or the like. If all random numbers are hardware random numbers, no software update process is required. The random number generation circuit may be built in the game control microcomputer 81.

  Next, the game control microcomputer 81 performs input processing (S102). In the input process (S102), various sensors (first start port sensor 20a, second start port sensor 21a, first big prize port sensor 30a, second big prize port sensor 35a, which are mainly attached to the pachinko gaming machine 1. The detection signal detected by the normal winning hole sensor 27a (see FIG. 36) is read, and payout data for paying out a winning ball corresponding to the type of the winning hole is set in a predetermined storage area of the RAM 84.

  Subsequently, the game control microcomputer 81 executes a start port sensor detection process (S103), a special operation process (S104), and a normal operation process (S105). In the start port sensor detection process (S103), if a winning detection is detected by the first start port sensor 20a, a random number such as a big hit random number (see FIG. 40 (A)) is acquired on condition that there are less than four reserved memories. To do. Further, if there is a winning detection by the second start port sensor 21a, a random number such as a jackpot random number (see FIG. 40A) is acquired on condition that the number of reserved storage is less than four. If there is passage detection by the gate sensor 28a, a normal symbol random number (see FIG. 40B) is acquired on condition that the number of hit random numbers already stored is less than four.

  In the special operation process (S104), a random number such as a jackpot random number acquired in the start port sensor detection process is determined using a predetermined determination table. And the special symbol display (variation display and stop display) for showing the result of the jackpot lottery is performed. When displaying the special symbol, a variation start command including information on the variation pattern of the variation display of the special symbol is set in a predetermined storage area of the RAM 84. As a result of the determination of the jackpot random number, when the jackpot is won, the first jackpot 30 and the second jackpot 2 according to a predetermined opening pattern (opening time and opening number, see FIG. 39) according to the type of jackpot. A jackpot game (special game) that opens the big prize opening 35 is performed. When this jackpot game is executed, an opening command including information on the type of winning jackpot symbol is set in a predetermined storage area of the RAM 84. In the special operation process (S104), if no random number such as a big hit random number is stored, a waiting-for-customer command for causing the presentation control microcomputer 91 to execute the waiting-for-customer effect is set.

  In the normal operation process (S105), the normal symbol random number acquired in the start port sensor detection process is determined using a predetermined determination table. And the normal symbol display (a change display and a stop display) for alerting | reporting the determination result is performed. As a result of the normal symbol random number determination, if the normal winning symbol is won, an auxiliary game that opens the electric chew 22 in accordance with a predetermined opening pattern (opening time and number of times of opening, see FIG. 39) according to the game state. Do.

  Next, the game control microcomputer 81 performs an output process (S106) for outputting the command set in each process described above to the sub-control board 90 or the like.

  In parallel with the above-described processing in the game control microcomputer 81, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs the processes shown in FIGS. The operation of the effect control microcomputer 91 will be described below.

  [Sub-side timer interrupt process] The effect control microcomputer 91 repeats the sub-side timer interrupt process as shown in FIG. 45 every predetermined short time. In the sub timer interruption process, first, a received command analysis process (S1001) is performed.

  [Reception Command Analysis Processing] As shown in FIG. 46, in the reception command analysis processing (S1001), the effect control microcomputer 91 first determines whether or not a variation start command is received from the game control microcomputer 81 (S1101). ). If not received, the process proceeds to step S1104. If received, a variation effect pattern selection process (S1102) is performed.

  In the variation effect pattern selection process (S1102), the variation effect pattern determination random number is acquired, one table is selected based on the analysis result of the variation start command, and the obtained variation effect is used. A variation effect pattern is selected by determining a random number for pattern determination. Data indicating the selected variation effect pattern is stored in a predetermined storage area of the RAM 94. By selecting this variation effect pattern, the presence / absence of execution of the effect for causing the panel lamp 5 to emit light, the timing thereof, the presence / absence of the execution of the effect for causing the frame lamp 66 to emit light, and the presence / absence of the effect for operating the movable frame 15 And the timing thereof, and the presence and timing of execution of an effect (first display effect) for causing the LED 365 of the right movable body 203 of the right movable body unit 202R and the LED 365 of the left movable body 253 of the left movable body unit 202L to emit light. The contents of the production including the details are determined.

  In this embodiment, as an effect of causing the LED 365 of the right movable body 203 and the LED 365 of the left movable body 253 to emit light, there is a first display effect as shown in FIG. The first display effect is a display effect that uses a meter to indicate the lottery result (determination result) of the special symbol during the variable display. Specifically, this is an effect in which the colors of the six regions are changed from white to other colors and displayed, and the expected degree of winning is shown to the player.

  Next, the effect control microcomputer 91 sets a change effect start command for starting the change effect with the change effect pattern selected in step S1102 in a predetermined storage area of the RAM 94 (S1103). Then, the process proceeds to step S1104.

  When the determined display includes the first display effect, the upper rotating body 320 and the lower body of each of the movable bodies 203 and 253 are moved in the movable body processing in step S1004 of the sub timer interruption process (FIG. 45). The display unit of the side rotating body 330 is switched to the upper first display unit 321 and the lower first display unit 331. Further, the first display effect is executed in the ramp process of step S1005. That is, the LED 365 of each movable body 203, 253 is caused to emit light. Thus, the case where the change effect start command related to the first display effect is set in the predetermined storage area of the RAM 94 corresponds to the establishment of the execution condition of the first display effect. That is, such a case corresponds to “when the first execution condition is satisfied”.

  In step S1104, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether or not an opening command is received from the game control microcomputer 81. If not received, the process proceeds to step S1107. If received, the jackpot effect pattern selection process (S1105) is performed.

  In the jackpot effect pattern selection process (S1105), based on the analysis result of the opening command, a jackpot effect effect pattern (a jackpot effect pattern) to be executed during the jackpot game is selected. Note that the data indicating the jackpot effect pattern selected here is stored in a predetermined storage area of the RAM 94. By selecting this jackpot effect pattern, whether or not the board lamp light emission effect is executed during the jackpot game and its timing, whether or not the movable body drive effect is executed and its timing, and the LED 365 of the right movable body 203 of the right movable body unit 202R. The contents of the effect are determined including details such as the presence / absence and timing of the effect of causing the LED 365 of the left movable body 253 of the left movable body unit 202L to emit light (second display effect).

  In this embodiment, as an effect of causing the LED 365 of the right movable body 203 and the LED 365 of the left movable body 253 to emit light, there is a second display effect as shown in FIG. The second display effect is a decorative symbol display effect. In other words, during the jackpot game, it is an effect to display the numbers of the decorative symbols that stopped with a doublet at the time of the jackpot.

  Next, the effect control microcomputer 91 sets a jackpot effect start command for starting the jackpot effect with the jackpot effect pattern selected in step S1105 in a predetermined storage area of the RAM 94 (S1106). Thereafter, processing based on other received commands is performed as other processing (S1107), and the received command analysis processing ends.

  In the present embodiment, when the determined effect includes the second display effect, the upper rotating body 320 of each of the movable bodies 203 and 253 is obtained in the movable body process in step S1004 of the sub timer interruption process (FIG. 45). The display unit of the lower rotator 330 is switched to the upper second display unit 322 and the lower second display unit 332. Further, the second display effect is executed in the ramp process of step S1005. That is, desired LEDs 365 of the movable bodies 203 and 253 are caused to emit light. Thus, the case where the change effect start command related to the second display effect is set in the predetermined storage area of the RAM 94 corresponds to the establishment of the execution condition of the second display effect. That is, such a case corresponds to “when the second execution condition is satisfied” and “when the display effect execution condition is satisfied”.

  Returning to FIG. 45, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs a command transmission process (S1002) following the received command analysis process (S1001). In the command transmission process (S1002), various commands set in the received command analysis process are transmitted to the image control board 100. When the command transmission process is executed, the image control board 100 that has received the command executes various effects (variation effect, jackpot effect, customer waiting effect, etc.) using the image display devices 6 and 7. For example, the image control board 100 that has received the variable effect start command set in step S1103 executes the variable effect with the content specified in the variable effect start command.

  Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs voice processing (S1003). In the voice processing (S1003), sound data (data for controlling the output of the voice and the like from the speaker 67) is created so that the voice and the like are output from the speaker 67 at a timing that matches the presentation pattern selected in the received command analysis process. Or output to the voice control board 106. Next, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs movable body processing (S1004) and ramp processing (S1005).

  In the movable body processing (S1004), the upper rotating body 320 and the lower rotating body 330 of each of the movable bodies 203 and 253 are rotated and moved based on the change effect start command and the big hit effect start command set in the RAM 94, respectively. A process of switching the display unit (upper display unit, lower display unit) shown to the player is performed.

  For example, when there is a change effect start command set in the RAM 94 related to the first display effect, the upper rotating body 320 and the lower rotating body 330 of each of the movable bodies 203 and 253 are rotated and moved, respectively. The display unit shown to the person is switched to the upper first display unit 321 and the lower first display unit 331 (see FIG. 48A). Further, for example, when the jackpot effect start command is set in the RAM 94, the upper rotating body 320 and the lower rotating body 330 of each movable body 203, 253 are rotated and moved so that the display unit shown to the player is displayed on the upper side. Switch to the second display portion 322 and the lower second display portion 332 (see FIG. 48B). During the rotational movement, the lower rotating body 330 is rotated in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the upper rotating body 320.

  In the ramp processing (S1005), for example, when there is a change effect start command set in the RAM 94 related to the first display effect, the first display effect described above is performed using the LED 365 of each movable body 203, 253. Execute (see FIG. 48A). Further, for example, when the jackpot effect start command is set in the RAM 94, the above-described second display effect is executed using the LED 365 of each movable body 203, 253 (see FIG. 48B).

9. As described in detail above, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the gaming machine frame 50 can be displaced between the first position shown in FIG. 23 and the second position shown in FIG. Since the left movable body 253 is provided, the pachinko gaming machine 1 including the gaming machine frame 50 that can be changed into a plurality of modes can be provided.

  When the inner frame 52 is opened while the left movable body 253 is at the second position, the tip of the upper portion of the left movable body 253 is forward and at a smaller rotation angle than when the inner frame 52 is at the first position. It is easy to reach the outside of the pachinko gaming machine 1. When the left movable body 253 reaches the outside of the pachinko gaming machine 1, contact or collision is likely to occur between equipment in a game hall (hall) such as an adjacent pachinko gaming machine.

  On the other hand, when the open / close frame KW is opened, the left movable body 253 of the pachinko gaming machine 1 can be displaced from the second position that is tilted forward to the first position that is upright ( (See FIG. 26). Therefore, it is possible to prevent the opening / closing frame KW from being opened in a state where the left movable body 253 is in the second position, that is, in a state where the left movable body 253 is inclined forward. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of problems that may occur when the open / close frame KW is opened with the left movable body 253 in front (for example, a collision with the left movable body 253).

  In addition, the left base portion 260 constituting the displacement mechanism is provided with a coil spring 299 that can place the left movable body 253 at the first position when the open / close frame KW is opened (see FIG. 23). Moreover, the coil spring 299 can urge the left third arm 276 to the first state when the open / close frame KW is opened. For this reason, when the open / close frame KW is opened, the left movable body 253 can be arranged at the first position by the bias of the coil spring 299. Thus, it is possible to reliably prevent the opening / closing frame KW from being opened while the left movable body 253 is in the second position.

  Further, when the opening / closing frame KW is opened around the rotation axis arranged on the left side, of the left movable body 253 and the right movable body 203, the left side disposed on the left side of the gaming machine frame 50 close to the rotation axis. The movable body 253 can easily reach the outside of the pachinko gaming machine 1 at a smaller rotation angle than the right movable body 203.

  On the other hand, in this pachinko gaming machine 1, the left and right movable body 253 disposed on the left side close to the rotation axis is displaced from the second position to the first position when the opening and closing frame KW is opened. It is possible to reliably suppress the occurrence of a collision with the left movable body 253 when opened.

  Further, the left movable body 253 disposed at the upper part of the gaming machine frame 50 is in a state of being inclined downward from the rear to the front when in the second position. Therefore, by moving to the second position, the left movable body 253 can be arranged at a position that is easy for the player to see. Therefore, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 in a playable state with the open / close frame KW closed, the player can produce effects (first display effect, second display effect) using the left movable body lamp 69L provided on the left movable body 253. It can be executed at an easy-to-see position.

  Further, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 of the present embodiment, the left movable body 253 is more easily visible to the player than the first position from the first position shown in FIG. 23 when the opening / closing frame KW is closed, as shown in FIG. It can be displaced to the second position shown. Therefore, when the opening / closing frame KW has been closed, the left movable body 253 can be automatically arranged at such a second position. Therefore, when closing the open / close frame KW, it is possible to prevent the left movable body 253 from being forgotten to be displaced to a position (second position) that is easy for the player to see.

  In particular, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 of the present embodiment, the second position of the left movable body 253 is a position that is easier for the player to visually recognize than the first position. Therefore, when closing the open / close frame KW, it is possible to prevent the left movable body 253 from being forgotten to be displaced to a position (second position) that is easy for the player to see.

  Further, when the open / close frame KW is closed, the pressing member 58 can press the left first arm 266 into the second state (see FIG. 24). Therefore, when the opening / closing frame KW has been closed, the left movable body 253 can be reliably arranged at the second position.

  The left base 260 includes a coil spring 299 that can bias the left third arm 276 to the first state. When the open / close frame KW is open, the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271 and the left third arm 276 can be in the first state by the bias of the coil spring 299, while the open / close frame KW When it is closed, it can be in the second state by pressing the pressing member 58. Therefore, the left movable body 253 can be reliably disposed at the first position when the opening / closing frame KW is open, and can be reliably disposed at the second position when the opening / closing frame KW is closed.

  The pedestal 295 is configured such that when the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271 and the left third arm 276 are in the second state, the left movable body 253 is displaced from the second position to the first position, Along with the displacement, the second posture can be changed to the first posture (see FIG. 25). Therefore, for example, even if the left movable body 253 in the second position is intentionally displaced to the first position by the player, the first left arm 266, the left second arm 271 and the left third arm 276 are In the second state, the pressed member 266T of the left first arm 266 can be kept pressed with respect to the pressing member 58. That is, even when such a displacement occurs in the left movable body 253 in the second position, an excessive force is applied to the left first arm 266, the left second arm 271, the left third arm 276, and the pressing member 58. It is possible to prevent problems from occurring.

  Further, the pressing member 58 can press the pressed portion 266T of the left first arm 266 by the posture holding member 57 regardless of whether the front frame 53 is closed or the inner frame 52 is closed. Therefore, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 in which the pressing member 58 that presses the pressed portion 266T of the left first arm 266 is provided in the inner frame 52, the second position is maintained regardless of whether the front frame 53 is closed or the inner frame 52 is closed. It is possible to arrange the left movable body 253 on the left side.

  Further, an effect (first display effect, second display effect) can be executed using the left movable body lamp 69L provided on the left movable body 253. Therefore, the second position when the opening / closing frame KW is closed can be set as the effect position, and when the opening / closing frame KW has been closed, the left movable body 253 can be automatically arranged at the effect position. It is possible.

  Further, the left movable body 253 disposed at the upper part of the gaming machine frame 50 is in a state of being inclined downward from the rear to the front when in the second position. Therefore, it is possible to arrange the movable body at a position that is easy for the player to see by displacing to the second position. Therefore, in a gaming machine in which the open / close frame KW is closed, the above-described effect using the left movable body lamp 69L provided on the left movable body 253 can be executed at a position that is easy for the player to see.

  Further, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 of the present embodiment, the gaming machine frame 50 includes the right movable body 203 that can be displaced at a plurality of positions when the opening / closing frame KW is closed, and therefore, when the opening / closing frame KW is closed, a plurality of It is possible to provide a pachinko gaming machine 1 having a gaming machine frame 50 that can be changed in the form.

  For example, when the opening / closing frame KW of the adjacent pachinko gaming machine 1 is opened and moved to the front of the pachinko gaming machine 1 with the right movable body 203 in the second position ahead of the first position. Is not preferable because the open / close frame KW easily collides with the right movable body 203.

  On the other hand, since the right movable body 203 can be displaced to the first position or the second position, when the opening / closing frame KW of the adjacent pachinko gaming machine 1 is opened, the right movable body is moved from the second position to the first position. By displacing 203, the collision with the right movable body 203 can be avoided.

  Further, the plurality of positions at which the right movable body 203 can be displaced include a third position that is an intermediate position between the first position and the second position (see FIG. 16). Therefore, if the right movable body 203 is arranged at the first position and interferes with the hall equipment behind the right movable body 203, the second movable body 203 is excluded between the second position and the third position except for the first position. The right movable body 203 can be displaced. Therefore, when the opening / closing frame KW of the adjacent pachinko gaming machine 1 is opened, the right movable body 203 is displaced from the second position to the third position, so that a collision with the right movable body 203 can be avoided. .

  In addition, since the right movable body 203 can be manually displaced in the gaming machine frame 50, the right movable body 203 can be immediately displaced by a player or a person concerned in the game hall as needed. It has become. Moreover, since the gaming machine frame 50 includes the latch structure 240 that can fix the right movable body 203 at a plurality of positions including the first position and the second position, when the right movable body 203 is manually displaced, The right movable body 203 can be easily arranged at predetermined positions such as the first position and the second position.

  By the way, when the opening / closing frame KW is opened around the rotation axis arranged on the left side, the right side of the left movable body 253 and the right movable body 203 that is disposed on the right side of the gaming machine frame 50 far from the rotation axis. The movable body 203 is more likely to collide with the open / close frame KW of the adjacent pachinko gaming machine 1 than the left movable body 253.

  On the other hand, in this pachinko gaming machine 1, the right movable body 203 disposed on the right side far from the rotation axis can be displaced from the second position to the first position. For this reason, when the open / close frame KW of the adjacent pachinko gaming machine 1 is opened, the right movable body 203 is displaced from the second position to the first position, so that a collision with the right movable body 203 can be avoided.

  In the pachinko gaming machine 1, the display form formed by the lens unit 321X in the upper first display unit 321 is different from the display form formed by the lens units 322D, 322E, 322F, and 322G in the upper second display unit 322. Yes. Further, the display mode formed by the lens unit 331X in the lower first display unit 331 and the display mode formed by the lens units 332D, 332E, and 332F in the lower second display unit 332 are different from each other. Therefore, it is possible to switch a plurality of types of display units and show them to the player, and it is possible to improve the gaming interest.

  The light source side partition member 366 that partitions the plurality of LEDs 365 constitutes a partition member SB1 that partitions the light path from the LED 365 belonging to the first light source group to the lens unit 321X together with the upper partition member 321S, while the upper partition member Along with 322S, partition members SC1, SC2, SC3, and SC4 that partition the light path from the LED 365 belonging to the second light source group to the lens portions 322D, 322E, 322F, and 322G are configured. That is, the light source side partition member 366 has a partition pattern corresponding to both the upper partition member 321S and the upper partition member 322S.

  Therefore, by using a common member (light source side partition member), the light from the first light source group is reliably transmitted to the lens unit 321X, or the light from the second light source group is transmitted to the lens units 322D, 322E, 322F, and 322G. It is possible to ensure transmission. Therefore, since it is not necessary to provide a plurality of partition members corresponding to the partition members 321S and 322S as the light source side partition members for partitioning the LED 365, it is possible to reduce the size and cost.

  Further, the path of light from the LED 365 belonging to the first light source group to the lens unit 321X is partitioned by the partition member SB1, and the path of light from the LED 365 belonging to the second light source group to the lens unit 322D is partitioned by the partition member SC1. Therefore, the plurality of LEDs 365 can emit light efficiently in accordance with the display unit arranged in front of the plurality of LEDs 365.

  In addition, when the upper first display unit 321 and the lower first display unit 331, and the upper second display unit 322 and the lower second display unit 332 form one motif, when one motif is completed It is possible to surprise the player.

  Further, the upper rotating body 320 is rotated in the direction opposite to that of the lower rotating body 330 when the upper display portions 321, 322, 323, and 324 are switched. Therefore, the switching operation of the display unit in the upper rotator 320 and the lower rotator 330 can be made different, and the player's attention can be improved.

  In the pachinko gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the translucent member 322X of the upper second display unit 322 is a single member that includes a plurality of partial lens units 322D, 322E, 322F, and 322G, and an interposition unit 322H. Therefore, although there are a plurality of partial lens portions 322D, 322E, 322F, and 322G, it is possible to reduce the number of parts of the translucent member 322X.

  Moreover, since the convex part 322W of the light-impermeable member 322Y and the fitting part 322J of the interposition part 322H are fitted, it is possible to prevent the positional deviation of the light-transmissive member 322X with respect to the light-impermeable member 322Y.

  Further, since the non-transparent convex portion 322W and the fitting portion 322J provided in the interposition portion 322H of the translucent member 322X are fitted, the insertion of the interposition portion 322H from the partial lens portions 322D, 322E, 322F, and 322G. When light has moved through the translucent member 322X to the vicinity of the joint portion 322J, the light can be shielded by the convex portion 322W.

  Further, since the convex portion 322W is fitted over the entire area of the fitting portion 322J in the thickness direction, from the partial lens portions 322D, 322E, 322F, and 322G to the vicinity of the fitting portion 322J of the interposition portion 322H, Can be prevented from reaching the opposite side of the convex portion 322W.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 34, in the translucent member 332X, the third distance Z3 through the interposition part 332H from the first partial lens part 332D to the second partial lens part 332E is longer than the first distance Z1. Yes. Accordingly (the third distance Z3 through the interposition part 332H from the first partial lens part 332D to the second partial lens part 332E is longer than the first distance Z1), the first partial lens part 332D and the second partial lens part 332D. It is possible to earn a distance between the partial lens unit 332E and to make a pachinko gaming machine 1 in which light movement (transmission) hardly occurs between the first partial lens unit 332D and the second partial lens unit 332E. It is possible.

  Furthermore, since the convex portion 332W is disposed between the first partial lens portion 332D and the third partial lens portion 332F, from the first partial lens portion 332D or the third partial lens portion 332F to the convex portion 332W, When light has moved through the translucent member 332X, the light can be blocked by the convex portion 332W. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the movement (transmission) of light between the first partial lens portion 332D and the third partial lens portion 332F.

10. Modification Example A modification example will be described below. In the description of the modified example, the same components as those of the first form of the pachinko gaming machine 1 described above are denoted by the same reference numerals and description thereof is omitted.

  In the above embodiment, the position of the left movable body 253 in an upright state (parallel to the vertical direction) is the first position, and the position of the left movable body 253 in the state where the angle θ5 is 24 degrees is the second position. . However, for example, the left movable body 253 that is in an angle θ5 other than 24 degrees out of angles greater than 0 degrees and 180 degrees or less may be set as the second position.

  The same applies to the right movable body 203. The position of the right movable body 203 in an upright state (a state parallel to the vertical direction) was defined as the first position, and the position of the right movable body 203 in the state where the angle θ2 was 24 degrees was defined as the second position. However, for example, the right movable body 203 that is in an angle θ2 other than 24 degrees out of an angle greater than 0 degree and 180 degrees or less may be set as the second position.

  Further, regarding the right movable body 203, the position of the right movable body 203 in the state where the angle θ3 is 12 degrees is set as the third position. However, for example, the right movable body 203 that is in an angle θ3 other than 12 degrees out of angles larger than 0 degrees and smaller than 90 degrees may be set as the third position. Further, although the angle corresponding to half of the angle θ2 is θ3, the angle θ3 may be other than 12 degrees as long as the third position is an angle between the first position and the second position.

  In the said form, the position of the left movable body 253 and the right movable body 203 in an upright state (a state parallel to the vertical direction) is defined as the first position. However, the first position may be the position of the left movable body 253 and the right movable body 203 that are inclined downward from the rear to the front. In that case, for example, the second position may be a position in an upright state (a state parallel to the vertical direction). That is, the structure which replaced the 1st position and the 2nd position of the said form may be sufficient. That is, a position where at least a part of the movable body is arranged in front of the movable body at the second position may be set as the first position. Further, at least one of the first position and the second position may be the position of the left movable body 253 and the right movable body 203 that are inclined upward from the front to the rear.

  Moreover, in the said form, the state of the left side movable body 253 in a 1st position and the state of the right side movable body 203 in a 1st position were made the same. In other words, both states were upright. However, the state of the left movable body 253 in the first position and the state of the right movable body 203 in the first position may be different from each other. Further, the state of the left movable body 253 at the second position is the same as the state of the right movable body 203 at the second position. That is, in both states, the angle θ2 and the angle θ5 were set to 24 degrees. However, the state of the left movable body 253 at the second position may be different from the state of the right movable body 203 at the second position.

  In the above embodiment, the left movable body 253 and the right movable body 203 are rotated to displace between the first position and the second position. However, the left movable body 253 and the right movable body 203 may be slid (translated) to displace between the first position and the second position. Specifically, for example, the second position of the left movable body 253 may be a position moved forward from the first position. In the case of this configuration, the position of the movable body at the normal time (when the opening / closing frame is closed) can be made closer to the player, and the presence of the movable body can be given to the player during the game. At the same time, the movable body can be automatically accommodated in the first position when the opening / closing frame is opened.

  Further, for example, the left movable body 253 may be a position moved leftward from the first position. Specifically, for example, as shown in FIG. 49, in the pachinko gaming machine, the movable member 500 movable in the front-rear direction and the left movable body 253 can be displaced leftward from the first position by the pressing of the pressing member 58. There are a linear motion mechanism 510 and a rail portion 520.

  The movable member 500 includes a pressed portion 501 that is pressed from behind by the pressing member 58 of the above embodiment, and a rack 502 that extends in the front-rear direction. The movable member 500 has a structure that moves the rack 502 rearward when there is no pressure from the pressing member 58. That is, in this movable member 500, when the pressed portion 501 is pressed by the pressing member 58, the rack 502 moves forward accordingly, and when the pressed portion 501 is not pressed by the pressing member 58, the rack 502 is moved. Move backwards.

  The linear motion mechanism 510 includes a gear 511, a screw shaft 512, and an assembly member 514. The gear 511 is attached to the right end of the screw shaft 512 so as to be integrally rotatable. Further, it meshes with the rack 502. Therefore, when the rack 502 moves in the front-rear direction, the gear 511 and the screw shaft 512 rotate. On the peripheral surface of the screw shaft 512, a spiral and groove-shaped male screw 513 is formed. The assembly member 514 is for assembly to the left movable body 253. That is, the left movable body 253 is assembled to the screw shaft 512 via the assembly member 514. The assembly member 514 has an insertion portion 514X through which the screw shaft 512 can be inserted, and a spiral and protruding female screw (not shown) is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the insertion portion 514X. For this reason, when the screw shaft 512 is inserted through the insertion portion 514X of the assembly member 514, the female screw of the insertion portion 514X and the male screw 513 of the screw shaft 512 are screwed together to form a so-called feed screw mechanism. . When the screw shaft 512 rotates in the forward direction by this feed screw mechanism, the assembly member 514 moves to the left along the screw shaft 512 (linear movement), and the screw shaft 512 is in the reverse direction opposite to the forward direction. When rotated, the assembly member 514 moves to the right along the screw shaft 512.

  The rail portion 520 is disposed directly below the bottom of the left movable body 253 and extends along the left-right direction. A wheel (not shown) that can roll on the rail portion 520 is provided at the bottom of the left movable body 253. For this reason, the left movable body 253 can be moved in the left-right direction on the rail portion 520 by wheels.

  When the open / close frame KW is open, the left movable body 253 is in the first position as in the above embodiment. When the open opening / closing frame KW is closed, the pressed portion 501 of the movable member 500 is pressed by the pressing member 58, and the rack 502 moves forward. Then, the gear 511 that meshes with the rack 502 rotates, and the screw shaft 512 also rotates in the forward direction. As a result, the assembly member 514 moves to the left along the screw shaft 512 (linear movement), and the left movable body 253 on the rail portion 520 assembled to the assembly member 514 also moves to the left. . Thus, when the open / close frame KW is closed when the left movable body 253 is in the first position, the left movable body 253 is displaced from the first position to the second position corresponding to the left side.

  When the open / close frame KW is opened when the left movable body 253 is in such a second position, the pressed portion 501 of the movable member 500 is not pressed by the pressing member 58, and the rack 502 moves rearward. . As a result, the gear 511 and the screw shaft 512 rotate in the opposite directions. Therefore, the assembly member 514 moves to the right (straight movement) along the screw shaft 512, and the left movable body 253 also moves to the right. Thus, when the open / close frame KW is opened when the left movable body 253 is in the second position, the left movable body 253 is displaced from the second position to the first position.

  In this configuration, the gaming machine frame during normal operation (when the opening / closing frame is closed) can be shown to the player more widely, and the movable body can be automatically accommodated in the first position when the opening / closing frame is opened. It is.

  Further, for example, the second position of the left movable body 253 may be a position where at least a part of the left movable body 253 is moved to the left from the first position and to the left outside of the base frame. For example, at least a part of the left movable body 253 may be a position moved to the right from the first position. Further, for example, at least a part of the left movable body 253 may be moved to a position moved from the first position to the right and to the right outside of the base frame. Further, for example, at least a part of the left movable body 253 may be a position moved forward and left from the first position. Further, for example, at least a part of the left movable body 253 may be a position moved forward and right from the first position. Further, for example, at least a part of the left movable body 253 may be a position moved upward or downward from the first position.

  Further, for example, the second position of the right movable body 203 may be a position where at least a part of the right movable body 203 is moved rightward from the first position. Further, for example, at least a part of the right movable body 203 may be a position moved from the first position to the right and to the right outside of the base frame. For example, at least a part of the right movable body 203 may be a position moved to the left from the first position. Further, for example, at least a part of the right movable body 203 may be a position moved from the first position to the left and to the left outside of the base frame. Further, for example, at least a part of the right movable body 203 may be a position moved forward and left from the first position. For example, at least a part of the right movable body 203 may be a position moved forward and right from the first position. Further, for example, at least a part of the right movable body 203 may be a position moved upward or downward from the first position.

  Moreover, in the said form, the display part through which light permeate | transmits was provided in the left movable body 253 as an effect means. However, presentation means other than the lamp may be provided. Specifically, for example, a speaker may be provided. In the case of this configuration, it is possible to arrange the speaker toward the player at normal times, and it is possible to prevent the player from overhearing and execute the sound effect.

  Further, for example, in addition to the image display devices 6 and 7 located in the center of the game board, a sub liquid crystal may be provided. In the case of this configuration, an effect using the sub liquid crystal can be executed at a position that is easy for the player to see at normal times (when the open / close frame is closed). Moreover, when the left movable body 253 is in an upright state, it is difficult for the player sitting in front of the gaming machine to see the display on the sub liquid crystal, but it is close to the hall personnel who perform the opening operation of the opening / closing frame. is there. That is, the screen of the sub liquid crystal provided on the front side surface of the left movable body 253 in the upright state is in a position that is easier to see for the standing hall personnel than the image display devices 6 and 7. Therefore, for example, a display (specifically, an error message, a work procedure for removing the error, etc.) directed to the hall personnel on the sub liquid crystal is displayed on the sub liquid crystal 253 at the first position when the open / close frame is opened. It is good also as a structure displayed on a liquid crystal.

  Further, in the above form, the form can be performed using the rendering means (the display unit of the rotating body) provided in the left movable body 253, but the form in which the rendering can be performed using the left movable body 253 itself may be used. . That is, the form which can perform the drive production using the left movable body 253 may be used. In addition, as a mode of the drive effect, for example, a mode of displacement driving between the first position and the second position value may be used. Further, for example, a mode in which displacement driving is performed between the second position and one or a plurality of positions different from the first position may be employed. Further, for example, a mode of rotationally driving about a rotation axis may be used.

  Moreover, in the said form, it was set as the form which provided the movable body which can be displaced with a displacement mechanism when the inner frame 52 opens, However, You may provide two or more such movable bodies which can be displaced. For example, in addition to the left movable body 253, the right movable body 203 may be a movable body that can be displaced by a displacement mechanism when the open / close frame is opened. Further, for example, one or more movable bodies different from the left movable body 353 and the right movable body 203 may be provided as such a movable body that can be displaced.

  Further, in the above embodiment, the movable body that can be displaced by the displacement mechanism when the inner frame 52 is opened is provided in the portion near the rotation axis of the gaming machine frame 50, that is, the left portion. However, it is not limited to the left side, and may be provided on the right side or the center of the left and right sides, for example.

  Moreover, in the said form, the left 1st arm, the left 2nd arm, and the left 3rd arm were used as the position change member. That is, a member that includes three members was used as a position changing member. However, a configuration other than the three components may be used as the position changing member. That is, for example, a position change member may be composed of one member, two members, or four or more members. Moreover, the structure which does not provide a position change member may be sufficient. That is, for example, a configuration in which the pressing member directly presses the movable body and is displaced from the first position to the second position may be used. Further, for example, the movable member may be displaced from the first position to the second position by the pressing member pressing the pedestal to change the posture.

  In the above embodiment, the left third arm 276 is biased by the coil spring 299. However, the configuration may be such that the left first arm or the left second arm other than the left third arm is urged.

  Moreover, in the said form, the coil spring 299 was made into the induction | guidance | derivation member which can arrange | position the left movable body 253 in a 1st position, when the opening-and-closing frame KW opens. That is, by using the biasing force of the coil spring 299, the left movable body 253 can be disposed at the first position when the open / close frame KW is opened. However, the left movable body 253 may be arranged at the first position when the opening / closing frame KW is opened using a force other than the urging force.

  Specifically, for example, as shown in FIG. 50, there is a configuration in which a permanent magnet 601 is disposed in a portion of the outer frame 51 that is behind the left movable body 253 and the magnetic force of the permanent magnet 601 is used. A metal body 602 is provided at the rear part of the left movable body 253. Moreover, when there is no magnetic force by the permanent magnet 601, it has the structure arrange | positioned in a 2nd position.

  As shown in FIG. 50A, when the open / close frame KW is closed, the metal body 602 provided on the left movable body 253 is disposed in a magnetic field having a predetermined strength of the permanent magnet 601, thereby allowing the left movable body to be moved. It is possible to make 253 upright. Therefore, when the open / close frame KW is closed, the left movable body 253 can be set to the first position.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 50B, when the open / close frame KW is opened, the permanent magnet 601 of the outer frame 51 and the metal body 602 of the left movable body 253 are separated from each other, and the metal body 602 has the predetermined strength.

  In the above embodiment, the pressing member 58 is used as the displacement mechanism. However, for example, a displacement mechanism that displaces the movable body using a frame opening / closing detection sensor that can detect opening / closing of the opening / closing frame and a drive motor may be used. . Specifically, based on the signal from the frame open / close detection sensor, when the open / close frame is opened, the movable body is displaced from the first position to the second position, and when the open / close frame is closed, the second position is changed to the first position. A drive motor provided on the front frame is driven so as to be displaced.

  Moreover, in the said form, although it was set as the structure which provided the base 295 in the left side base part 260, the structure without a base may be sufficient. That is, for example, a configuration in which the bottom portion of the left movable body 253 is rotatably connected to the base connection portion 263X of the second base main body portion 263 may be employed.

  Moreover, in the said form, the right movable body 203 which can be displaced irrespective of opening of the inner frame 52 shall be displaceable to three positions. However, it may be displaceable to four or more positions. In addition, although one movable body that can be displaced regardless of the opening of the inner frame 52 is provided, a plurality of such movable bodies may be provided. For example, in addition to the right movable body 203, the left movable body 253 may be a movable body that can be displaced regardless of opening of the opening and closing frame. Further, for example, as such a movable body, one or a plurality of movable bodies different from the left movable body 353 and the right movable body 203 may be provided.

  In the above embodiment, for example, when the inner frame 52 of the adjacent pachinko gaming machine 1 is opened, the right movable body 203 is manually displaced. However, for example, a configuration provided with a displacement mechanism that displaces the movable body using a frame opening / closing detection sensor capable of detecting opening / closing of the opening / closing frame of the adjacent gaming machine and a drive motor may be used. Specifically, based on the signal from the frame open / close detection sensor, when the open / close frame of the adjacent gaming machine is opened, the movable body is displaced from the second position to the first position (or the third position), and the open / close frame is closed. When this occurs, the drive motor provided on the front frame is driven so as to be displaced to the first position.

  In the said form, the display part which makes the rotary bodies 320 and 330 of a movable body (the right movable body 203, the left movable body 253) was made into four types. However, a movable body including a plurality of display units other than the four types may be used.

  In the above embodiment, the first light source group is the entire LED 365, and the second light source group is the LED 365 shown in FIG. However, the second light source group only needs to be different from the first light source group, and an LED (light source) other than the LED 365 shown in FIG. 35 may be used.

However, “3 segments” may be arranged on the upper second display section 322 of the upper rotating body 320 and “4 segments” may be arranged on the lower second display section 332 of the lower rotating body 330.

  Moreover, in the said form, it was set as partition member SB1 which consists of the upper side partition member 321S arrange | positioned at the upper side 1st display part 321 side, and the light source side partition member 366. FIG. However, a new partition member may be added to the upper partition member 321S and the light source side partition member 366 to form the partition member SB1. That is, the partition member SB1 composed of two members may be a member composed of three or more members including the upper partition member 321S and the light source side partition member 366. Moreover, the 1st partition member which consists only of the upper side partition member 321S may be sufficient. Moreover, the 1st partition member which consists only of the light source side partition member 366 may be sufficient.

  Moreover, in the said form, about the right side movable body 203, the number of the structures was set to two (the upper side rotary body 320 and the lower side rotary body 330). However, it may be composed of one rotating body (structure). Moreover, it is good also as what consists of three or more structures (rotary body). Similarly, the left movable body 253 may be a single structure (rotary body) or three or more structures (rotary bodies).

  Moreover, in the said form, it was set as the structure which arrange | positions a display part ahead of LED365 by rotating the upper side rotary body 320 and the lower side rotary body 330 of the right side movable body 203 both. However, the structure may have a configuration other than the rotating body. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 51A, a rotation axis is provided on the front left side of the light source unit 340, and the upper first display unit 321 in which the light source unit 340 can be opened and closed, and the front right side of the light source unit 340. It is good also as a structure provided with the 2nd display part which provided the rotating shaft in this and arrange | positioned the light source part 340 so that opening and closing is possible.

  In this structure, when the display unit in front of the light source 365 of the light source unit 340 is switched to the upper first display unit 321 using the switching mechanism, the upper second display unit 322 in front of the light source unit 340 is first The upper 21st display part 322 is arranged on the right front side of the light source part 340 by rotating counterclockwise as viewed from above (turning by 90 degrees).

  When the upper second display unit 322 is switched from the display unit in front of the light source 365 of the light source unit 340 using the switching mechanism, the upper first display unit 321 in front of the light source unit 340 is first viewed from above. Then, the upper first display unit 321 is arranged on the left front side of the light source unit 340. Thereafter, the upper second display unit 322 located on the right front side of the light source unit 340 is rotated clockwise (rotated by 90 degrees) when viewed from above and disposed in front of the light source unit 340 (FIG. 51C). reference).

  Further, in the above embodiment, with respect to the movable bodies (the right movable body 203 and the left movable body 253), the rotation direction of the upper rotation body 320 is opposite to the rotation direction of the lower rotation body 330. However, the rotation direction of the upper rotator 320 and the rotation direction of the lower rotator 330 may be the same direction.

  Moreover, in the said form, although the translucent member 332X of the 2nd display part 332 of a movable body (the right movable body 203, the left movable body 253) was a colorless and transparent member, it is good also as a colored transparent member. That is, any member that can transmit light may be used regardless of the presence or absence of color.

  Moreover, with the said form, the convex part 332W shall be fitted to the whole area of the thickness direction of the fitting part 332J. However, the convex part which fits in the partial range of the thickness direction of the fitting part 332J may be sufficient.

A gaming machine that is disposed between the first partial lens portion and the third partial lens portion.

  According to the gaming machine having this configuration, the translucent member has a distance through the interposition portion from the first partial lens portion to the second partial lens portion that is longer than the first distance. The distance between the first partial lens unit and the second partial lens unit by that amount (the distance through the interposition part from the first partial lens unit to the second partial lens unit is longer than the first distance). It is possible to make a gaming machine in which light movement (transmission) hardly occurs between the first partial lens portion and the second partial lens portion.

  Furthermore, since the convex portion is disposed between the first partial lens portion and the third partial lens portion, light is transmitted through the light transmitting member from the first partial lens portion or the third partial lens portion to the convex portion. Can be shielded by the convex portion. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the movement (transmission) of light between the first partial lens unit and the third partial lens unit.

The invention according to means E5 is
A light source (LED 365);
A display unit (lower second display unit 332) including a translucent member (332X) capable of transmitting light and a non-translucent member (332Y) that is not transparent or difficult to transmit;
Production control means (sub-control board 90) capable of executing the production accompanying the game,
The translucent member is
A gaming machine (pachinko) comprising a plurality of lens portions (first partial lens portion 332D, second partial lens portion 332E, third partial lens portion 332F) and an interposition portion (332H) interposed between the plurality of lens portions. A gaming machine 1),
The translucent member consists of one member,
The light-impermeable member includes a convex portion (332W) projecting on the back side,
The interposition part includes a fitting part (332J) that can be fitted to the convex part,
The convex part and the fitting part are fitted,
The production control means includes
A display effect using the display unit (display effect shown in FIG. 48B) can be executed,
When the display effect execution condition is satisfied, at least a part of the plurality of light sources can emit light.

  According to the gaming machine having this configuration, since the convex portion of the light-impermeable member and the fitting portion of the interposition portion are fitted, it is possible to prevent the positional deviation of the light-transmissive member (lens portion) with respect to the light-impermeable member. It is. In addition, since the non-translucent convex portion and the fitting portion provided at the interposition portion of the translucent member are fitted, light moves in the translucent member from the lens portion to the vicinity of the fitting portion of the interposition portion. In such a case, the light can be shielded by the convex portion.
