[First board]
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view showing the location of the light transmission part 23 in the first board surface 11, and is an enlarged view in a circle indicated by reference A in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 4, at least a part of the first board surface 11 is made of a material having light scattering properties. Specifically, the first board surface 11 has a configuration in which a light guide plate 24 and a transparent plate 25 are laminated. The light guide plate 24 is made of a material having light scattering properties. As an example of a material having light scattering properties, for example, a transparent resin is mixed with a diffusing material having a refractive index different from the refractive index of the transparent resin, and an acrylic resin having a milky white color is used.

  The transparent plate 25 is made of a light transmissive material such as a transparent resin. The transparent plate 25 is laminated and bonded to the surface side of the light guide plate 24. Specifically, the light guide plate 24 and the transparent plate 25 are made of acrylic plywood, for example. Note that the transparent plate 25 does not necessarily have to be bonded to the light guide plate 24 and may be disposed at a distance from the light guide plate 24.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, a light transmission portion 23 is provided in a part of the first board surface 11. The light transmission part 23 is configured by an opening 24h formed by hollowing out the light guide plate 24, and a transparent plate 25 covering the surface side of the light guide plate 24 including a region where the opening 24h is formed. The croon 7 is provided at a position corresponding to the light transmitting portion 23 on the back side of the first board surface 11. Therefore, the player M can visually recognize the croon 7 through the light transmission part 23 of the first board surface 11. In the present embodiment, the light transmission part 23 has an elliptical shape, but the light transmission part 23 has a shape other than the elliptical shape as long as the crone 7 can be visually recognized through the light transmission part 23. May be.

  As shown in FIG. 2, a first panel surface illumination unit 27 (second illumination unit) is provided at the edge of the first panel surface 11. The 1st board surface illumination part 27 is comprised from the LED board which has a some light emitting diode (LED), for example. The first panel illumination unit 27 is provided along the four sides of the first panel 11. In FIG. 2, only a portion along the three sides (left side, right side, and lower side) of the first board surface 11 in the first board surface illumination unit 27 is illustrated.

  The first panel surface illumination unit 27 irradiates light toward the end surface of the light guide plate 24 and causes the light to enter the light guide plate 24. As shown in FIG. 4, the light L incident on the light guide plate 24 is scattered while traveling through the light guide plate 24 and is emitted from the light guide plate 24. The light L emitted from the front surface side of the light guide plate 24 passes through the transparent plate 25 and is emitted from the first inclined surface 11a of the first panel surface 11 with substantially equal luminance. As described above, the first panel surface illumination unit 27 illuminates at least a part of the transmissive display panel 5 via the first panel surface 11. In other words, the first panel surface illumination unit 27 and the first panel surface 11 function as a backlight of the transmissive display panel 5.

  The first board surface 11 is provided with a plurality of pins 29 (protruding members), partition walls 30, partition members 31 and the like that serve as obstacles for the balls 13 moving on the first board surface 11. As shown in FIG. 4, these obstacles including the pins 29 are provided on the transparent plate 25 and do not reach the light guide plate 24. Here, although the pin 29 is illustrated, the partition 30 and the partition member 31 are also the same. Specifically, for example, when the pin 29 is inserted into the hole and fixed to the first board surface 11, the hole is provided in the transparent plate 25 and is not provided in the light guide plate 24.

  Thus, in the 1st board surface 11 of this embodiment, since an obstruction is not in direct contact with the light guide plate 24, the progress of the light in the light guide plate 24 is not disturbed by the obstruction. Thereby, it is hard to produce the fall of illumination performance, such as the brightness nonuniformity of the light of the 1st board surface 11, and the transmissive display board 5 can be illuminated favorably.

  When providing the light transmission part on the 1st board surface, the designer of a game device can also consider setting it as the structure which only provided the opening part in the light-guide plate, without using a transparent plate. However, in this case, since the ball moving on the first board surface falls from the opening, it is necessary to design the path of the ball so that the ball does not pass through the opening. On the other hand, in the light transmission part 23 of this embodiment, since the opening 24h of the light guide plate 24 is covered with the transparent plate 25, the ball 13 passes over the light transmission part 23 as shown in FIG. Therefore, the degree of freedom in designing the passage path of the ball 13 can be increased. Moreover, in the light transmission part 23 of this embodiment, obstacles, such as a pin, can be installed immediately above the light transmission part 23 by providing the transparent plate 25.

  As shown in FIG. 2, a plurality of partition members 31 are provided at the lower end of the first board surface 11. A space between two adjacent partition members 31 constitutes a chucker 33. A plurality of sensors 34 for detecting the passage of the ball 13 are provided on the first board surface. The plurality of sensors 34 are provided at positions near the center of the first board surface 11 in the vertical direction and positions corresponding to the chuckers 33. The sensor 34 corresponding to each chucker 33 detects the presence or absence of the ball 13 that has fallen on the chucker 33. In the game apparatus 1, a reward or the like that the player M can obtain is determined depending on which chucker 33 the ball 13 that has descended to the lower end of the first board surface 11 enters. For example, an optical sensor including a light emitting element and a light receiving element can be used as the sensor 34, but the type of sensor is not particularly limited.

[Transparent display board]
As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the transmissive display board 5 is provided on the surface side of the first board surface 11. The inclination angle θ3 of the transmissive display board 5 and the inclination angle θ1 of the first board surface 11 are substantially the same, and the transmissive display board 5 is arranged substantially parallel to the first board surface 11. In the case of this embodiment, the transmissive display board 5 is provided at a position overlapping the lower half area of the first panel surface 11. However, the size of the transmissive display board 5 can be changed as appropriate, and the transmissive display board 5 may be provided, for example, at a position overlapping the entire first board surface 11.

  The transmissive display plate 5 includes a transmissive liquid crystal panel 36 capable of transmissive display of an image, and a frame body 37 that supports the transmissive liquid crystal panel 36. The transmissive liquid crystal panel 36 is arranged at a predetermined interval from the first panel surface 11 in a form supported by the frame body 37. The transmissive liquid crystal panel 36 of the present embodiment is not a transmissive liquid crystal panel in a broad sense that performs transmissive display using a backlight, but is a so-called transparent liquid crystal panel in which the back side of the liquid crystal panel can be seen through. . Thus, regardless of the display / non-display state of the image, the player M can see the first board surface 11 disposed on the back side of the transmissive liquid crystal panel 36, and the ball moving on the first board surface 11 13 movements can be grasped.

  In the present embodiment, the transmissive liquid crystal panel 36 is used for the transmissive display plate 5, but a display other than the liquid crystal panel may be used as long as the image can be transmissively displayed. For example, an electroluminescence (EL) display, an electrophoretic display, or the like may be used for the transmissive display plate.

[Ball throwing part]
FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the ball throwing portion 6.
As shown in FIG. 5, the ball throwing-in portion 6 includes a left ball throwing portion 6 </ b> L for supplying the ball 13 mainly from the center of the first board surface 11 to the left region as viewed from the player M, and a first first.

The left ball throwing portion 6L and the right ball throwing portion 6R have the same configuration.

  Each ball throwing unit 6 includes a launch tube 39 having a launch port 39 a for the ball 13 at the lower end, and a drive source (not shown) for driving the launch tube 39. The launch tube 39 is configured such that the lower end side can be swung left and right with the upper end side as a fulcrum by the operation of the drive source. The ball throwing unit 6 throws the ball 13 onto the first board surface 11 while the position of the launch port 39a varies from side to side depending on the drive source. In the case of the present embodiment, the launch port 39a has a rectangular shape, but the launch port 39a is not limited to a rectangular shape and may have any shape.

  The ball throwing button 15L located on the left side of the operation panel 8 shown in FIG. 2 corresponds to the left ball throwing portion 6L, and the ball throwing button 15R located on the right side corresponds to the right ball throwing portion 6R. When the player M watches the movement of the launch tube 39 and presses the left ball throw button 15L, for example, the player M pushes one ball 13 from the launch tube 39 of the left ball throwing portion 6L on the first board surface 11 as desired. Can be fired at For example, when the player M repeatedly hits the right ball insertion button 15R, the player M can continuously fire a plurality of balls 13 on the first board surface 11 from the launch tube 39 of the right ball insertion portion 6R. Moreover, a stopper (not shown) is provided at the launch port 39a of each launch tube 39 so that the ball 13 does not fall from the launch port 39a by its own weight.

  As shown in FIG. 5, a jackpot ball slot 40 is provided at the upper end of the first board surface 11. When the jackpot is won in the physical lottery of the second game, a plurality of balls 13 accommodated in a jackpot ball insertion portion 3 described later are continuously thrown onto the first board surface 11 from the jackpot ball insertion slot 40. The

[Ball housing part]

The ball accommodating portion 9 has a substantially bilaterally symmetric configuration. In the accommodation space 9K, the first guide plate 41, the second guide plate 42, the third guide plate 43, the ball stirring unit 44 (game body stirring unit), the ball transport unit 45 (game body transport unit), and the common drive unit 46. , And a set of belts 47 (rotation transmission members) on the left and right.

  The first guide plate 41 is provided at a position higher than the ball agitating portion 44 so as to incline in a direction descending from the left end or the right end toward the center. The first guide plate 41 forms a first ball guide path 41Y (first game body guide path) that guides the ball 13 toward the ball stirring portion 44 in the accommodation space 9K.

  The second guide plate 42 is provided at a position substantially the same height as the ball agitating portion 44 and is inclined in a direction of descending from the center toward the left end or the right end. The second guide plate 42 constitutes a second ball guide path 42Y (second game body guide path) for guiding the ball 13 from the ball stirring unit 44 toward the ball transport unit 45 in the accommodation space 9K.

  The third guide plate 43 is provided so as to extend in the vertical direction above the ball transport portion 45 at the left end and the right end of the accommodation space 9K. Each third guide plate 43 constitutes an in-container transport path 51 that is part of a transport path for transporting the ball 13 from the ball transport section 45 to the ball throwing section 6. As shown in FIG. 3, one end of a ball transport tube 49 is connected to the outlet 51 e of the in-container transport path 51. The other end of the ball transport tube 49 is connected to the ball throwing portion 6. As described above, the in-container transport path 51 and the ball transport pipe 49 constitute a transport path for transporting the ball 13 from the ball transport section 45 to the ball throwing section 6. In the following description, the in-container conveyance path 51 at the left end of the accommodation space 9K is referred to as a first in-container conveyance path 51L, and the in-container conveyance path 51 at the right end of the accommodation space 9K is referred to as a second in-container conveyance path 51R.

[Ball stirring section]
The ball stirring part 44 is provided in the center of the lower part of the accommodation space 9K. The ball stirring unit 44 includes a first stirring rotor 53L and a second stirring rotor 53R that abut the ball 13 and stir the ball 13. The first stirring rotor 53L and the second stirring rotor 53R have the same configuration, and are configured by a substantially equilateral triangular flat plate.

  The first stirring rotor 53L and the second stirring rotor 53R are rotatable in different directions. The first stirring rotor 53L is rotatable clockwise about the rotation shaft 54. In other words, the first stirring rotor 53L is rotatable in the direction in which the ball 13 is guided to the left ball conveyance unit 45 described later. On the other hand, the second stirring rotor 53R is rotatable counterclockwise about the rotation shaft 54. In other words, the second stirring rotor 53R is rotatable in a direction in which the ball 13 is guided to the right ball transport unit 45 described later.

  A first guide plate 41 and a second guide plate 42 for guiding the balls 13 to the respective ball transport portions 45 are provided in the lower part of the accommodation space 9K. It is narrowed down. Therefore, when a large number of balls 13 are accommodated in the accommodating space 9K, the balls 13 stay in the lower portion of the accommodating space 9K, and the moving path is clogged in a narrowed portion and is not guided to the second ball guiding path 42Y. There is. In this case, by rotating the first stirring rotor 53L and the second stirring rotor 53R in different directions, the second ball 13 is stirred by the stirring rotors 53L and 53R. It can guide to each ball conveyance part 45 via guide way 42Y.

[Ball transfer section]
The ball transport portions 45 are respectively provided at the lower left end and the right end of the accommodation space 9K. The ball transport unit 45 includes a transport rotor 56 that transports the ball 13 while being in contact with the ball 13. Each transfer rotor 56 is configured by an impeller having a plurality of blades 56h. The transfer rotor 56 can accommodate one ball 13 between two adjacent blades 56h. Each ball 13 is pushed out by the blades 56h when the conveying rotor 56 rotates by an angle formed by the two blades 56h in a state where the balls 13 are accommodated between the two adjacent blades 56h. Move by the distance of one ball. In the example of the present embodiment, the transfer rotor 56 has six blades 56h. Accordingly, when the transfer rotor 56 rotates 60 °, each ball 13 is transferred by a distance corresponding to one ball.

  In the following description, the left ball transport unit 45 of the accommodation space 9K is referred to as a first ball transport unit 45L, and the right ball transport unit 45 is referred to as a second ball transport unit 45R. The first ball transport unit 45L and the second ball transport unit 45R are provided on different sides with the ball stirring unit 44 as a center.

  The first ball transfer unit 45L includes a first transfer rotor 56L. The first transfer rotor 56L is rotatable clockwise. In other words, the first transfer rotor 56L is rotatable in the direction in which the ball 13 is guided to the first accommodating portion transfer path 51L. The second ball transfer unit 45R includes a second transfer rotor 56R. The second transfer rotor 56R is rotatable counterclockwise, contrary to the first transfer rotor 56L. In other words, the second transfer rotor 56R is rotatable in a direction in which the ball 13 is guided to the second accommodating portion transfer path 51R.

[Common drive unit]
The common drive unit 46 is provided at each of the left end and the right end of the lower portion of the accommodation space 9K. In the following description, the left common drive unit 46 of the accommodation space 9K is referred to as a first common drive unit 46L, and the right common drive unit 46 is referred to as a second common drive unit 46R. The common drive unit 46 is configured by a motor (drive source) provided on the rotation shaft 57 of the transport rotor 56. The motor is controlled to rotate by an angle of 60 ° per pressing operation when the ball insertion button 15 is pressed.

  The stirring rotor 53 and the transport rotor 56 are connected by a belt 59 (rotation transmission member). Specifically, the first stirring rotor 53L and the first transporting rotor 56L are connected by a first belt 59L (first rotation transmission member). The first belt 59L rotates the first stirring rotor 53L with the rotation of the first transport rotor 56L. As a result, the first stirring rotor 53L and the first transfer rotor 56L are rotated in a clockwise direction by a common motor. The direction of rotation is indicated by arrow C.

  Similarly, the second stirring rotor 53R and the second transporting rotor 56R are connected by a second belt 59R (second rotation transmission member). The second belt 59R rotates the second stirring rotor 53R with the rotation of the second transport rotor 56R. As a result, the second stirring rotor 53R and the second transporting rotor 56R are rotated in synchronism counterclockwise by the common motor. The direction of rotation is indicated by arrow D.

  During the execution of the game, the transport path from the transport rotor 56 of each ball transport unit 45 to the launch tube 39 of each ball throwing unit 6 is aligned in a row with all the balls 13 in contact with each other. It is in a state filled with. Therefore, when the player M presses the ball insertion button 15 once, each transport rotor 56 rotates by a predetermined angle (60 °), and the plurality of balls 13 are sent out by a distance corresponding to one ball. As a result, the ball 13 at the head of the launch tube 39 is pushed out to the rear ball 13 and is thrown onto the first board surface 11 beyond the stopper of the launch port 39a. That is, the control unit 18 operates the ball transport unit 45 in conjunction with the throwing operation by the ball throwing button 15.

  In the first ball transport unit 45L (left side) shown in FIG. 6, the ball 13 is filled in the entire space on the side facing the second guide plate 42 of the first transport rotor 56L. However, depending on the degree of clogging of the balls 13 and the timing of movement, a part of the second transfer rotor 56R space (space indicated by symbol Q) as in the second ball transfer unit 45R (right side) shown in FIG. In some cases, the balls 13 are not filled. In this case, even when the ball insertion button 15 is pressed and the transport rotor 56 rotates, the ball 13 is not fired and the player M may feel stress.

  As a countermeasure against the above problem, a sensor 61 is provided at a position on the wall surface of the ball accommodating portion 9 that faces the conveying rotor 56 of each ball conveying portion 45. The sensor 61 detects the presence or absence of the ball 13 at a position facing the sensor 61. When the ball 13 is present at a position facing the sensor 61, the control unit 18 determines that the ball 13 is normally fired and does not send a signal to the ball transport unit 45.

  On the other hand, when there is no ball 13 at a position facing the sensor 61, the control unit 18 determines that the ball 13 is not fired even when the ball insertion button 15 is pressed, and before the ball insertion button 15 is pressed. The conveying rotor 56 is rotated by a predetermined angle (an angle of 60 ° for one ball). Thereby, the state in which the ball 13 is not filled in a part of the space of the transfer rotor 56 is eliminated, and the above problem can be avoided.

[Ball guiding part]
FIG. 7 is a perspective view of the first board surface 11, the ball guiding part 63, the second board surface 12, and the croon 7.
As shown in FIG. 7, the ball guide portion 63 is connected to the guide port 64 formed of an opening provided in the first board surface 11, the gate 65 (lid portion) provided in the guide port 64, and the guide port 64. And a guided tube 66. The gate 65 can be opened and closed by a drive source (not shown) such as a motor.

  As shown in FIGS. 5 and 7, the guide port 64 permits the ball 13 to be guided from the first board surface 11 to the second board surface 12 in a state where the gate 65 is opened. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 2, when the gate 65 is closed, the guidance of the ball 13 from the first board surface 11 to the second board surface 12 is not permitted. In this state, the ball 13 continues to move on the first board surface 11 through the gate 65.

  When the first game using the ball 13 moving on the first board surface 11 is in progress, for example, when the acquired point exceeds a predetermined value or the ball enters a predetermined chucker 33, the control unit 18 When the above condition is satisfied, a signal is sent to the motor to open the gate 65. Based on such control, the ball guiding unit 63 guides the ball 13 from the first board surface 11 to the second board surface 12.

  Alternatively, instead of a configuration in which the gate 65 is opened when a predetermined condition is satisfied in the progress of the first game, for example, when the ball contacts a specific member on the first board surface 11, the movement of the member is interlocked. The gate 65 may be physically opened. Further, in the present embodiment, an example in which the guide pipe 66 that connects the first board surface 11 and the second board surface 12 is provided has been shown, but instead of this configuration, the first board surface 11 and the second board surface 12 are connected. It is good also as a structure which is not provided with the member to perform and moves on the 2nd board surface 12 when the ball | bowl 13 falls freely from the 1st board surface 11. FIG.

[2nd board]
FIG. 8 is a plan view of the second board surface 12 and the croon 7.
As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the second board surface 12 moves the ball 13 along the second inclined surface 12a when the ball 13 on the first board surface 11 is thrown through the ball guiding portion 63. Let The second panel surface 12 includes a plurality of partition plates 68 (partition members) and side plates 69.

  Each of the plurality of partition plates 68 is made of a plate material that stands upright substantially perpendicular to the second inclined surface 12a. The plurality of partition plates 68 form a plurality of independent passage paths 70 through which the ball 13 can pass. In the present embodiment, four passage paths 70 are formed by the three partition plates 68. The side plate 69 is made of a plate material which stands upright substantially perpendicular to the edge of the second board surface 12 and surrounds the periphery of the second board surface 12 except for the ball throwing area 12t at the lower end.

  The second board surface 12 has a second inclined surface 12a that is inclined in such a direction that the upper end side in FIG. 8 is located on the back side of the player M and the lower end side in FIG. 8 is located on the near side of the player M. Hereinafter, the three partition plates 68 are arranged in order from the side at which the second inclined surface 12a is located higher to the side at which the second inclined surface 12a is located, and the first partition plate 68A, the second partition plate 68B, and the third partition plate 68C. Called. A space sandwiched between the upper side plate 69 and the first partition plate 68A forms a first passage path 70A. A space sandwiched between the first partition plate 68A and the second partition plate 68B forms a second passage path 70B. A space sandwiched between the second partition plate 68B and the third partition plate 68C forms a third passage path 70C. A space sandwiched between the third partition plate 68C and the lower side plate 69 forms a fourth passage 70D. Each partition plate 68 is arranged in a direction that descends from the left end toward the right end. Therefore, the ball 13 moves from the left side to the right side through each passing path 70. The route lengths of the first passage route 70A to the fourth passage route 70D are different from each other.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the inlet 66 i of the guide tube 66 of the ball guide portion 63 is connected to the guide port 64 of the first board surface 11. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 8, the outlet 66e of the guide pipe 66 is disposed above the upper center of the second panel surface 12 and at a position corresponding to the left end of the first partition plate 68A. Therefore, the ball 13 thrown on the second board surface 12 is guided to the first passage 70A by the first partition plate 68A as indicated by an arrow A1 due to a delicate positional relationship when it falls from the guide pipe 66. Or, as indicated by an arrow A2, the moving direction branches as if it falls from the first partition plate 68A and is guided to the left end of the second partition plate 68B.

  Similarly, the ball 13 guided to the left end of the second partition plate 68B is guided to the second passage 70B by the second partition plate 68B as indicated by an arrow B1, or as shown by an arrow B2. The moving direction branches as if guided to the left end of the three partition plates 68C. Further, the ball 13 guided to the left end of the third partition plate 68C is guided to the third passage 70C by the third partition plate 68C as indicated by the arrow C1, or the third partition plate 68C as indicated by the arrow C2. The moving direction branches as if it falls from the partition plate 68C to the side plate 69 and is guided to the fourth passage 70D.

  As described above, the ball 13 thrown into the second board surface 12 passes through one of the four passage paths 70 and then falls onto the crone 7 from the ball throwing area 12t. Here, since the path lengths of the first passage path 70A to the fourth passage path 70D are different from each other, even if the ball 13 falls in the same manner from the guide tube 66, the ball 13 falls when it falls to the croon 7. The speed and fall timing vary irregularly depending on the case.

  In the present embodiment, as a means for irregularly changing the falling speed and the falling timing of the ball 13, the technique of changing the path lengths of the four passage paths 70 is used, but the present invention is not limited to this technique. For example, a method may be used in which the inclination angles are different among the plurality of passage paths 70 or a branch path is further provided in some passage paths 70. Further, in the present embodiment, the flat partition plate 68 is used. However, for example, by using a curved plate material for at least a part of the partition plates, the falling speed and the falling timing of the ball 13 may be appropriately adjusted.

[Kroon]
FIG. 9 is a perspective view showing the croon 7 and the croon illumination unit 73.
As shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, the croon 7 includes an inclined surface 7 a inclined in a direction gradually descending from the periphery toward the center, a pocket 7 b (hole) provided in the center, and a sensor 7 c. A circular dish-shaped member. Similar to the light guide plate 24 on the first board surface 11, the croon 7 is made of a light scattering material such as an acrylic resin mixed with a diffusing material. The croon 7 is supported by the support member 74 and is provided at a position corresponding to the light transmission part 23 on the back side of the first board surface 11. The sensor 7c detects the ball 13 that has dropped into the pocket 7b.

  The ball 13 thrown into the croon 7 from the second board surface 12 gradually loses centrifugal force while rotating a plurality of times along the inclined surface 7a, and finally falls into the central pocket 7b. The croon 7 can detect the falling timing of the ball 13 in the pocket 7b by the sensor 7c, and can execute a physical lottery based on the detection result. The control unit 18 uses the physical lottery result by the Kroon 7 to advance the second game described later. As shown in FIG. 2, the player M sees the movement of the ball 13 on the croon 7 through the light transmitting portion 23 by arranging the crune 7 on the back side of the light transmitting portion 23 of the first board surface 11. Can do.

  As shown in FIG. 9, in the vicinity of the croon 7, a croon illumination unit 73 (first illumination unit) that irradiates light toward the crone 7 is provided. The cruising illumination unit 73 includes an upper cruising illumination unit 73U that emits light from above (front side) of the cruising 7, and a lower cruising illumination unit 73B that emits light from below (back side) of the cruising 7.

  The upper crune illumination unit 73U is provided on the lower surface (back surface) side of the upper support plate 75 provided above the croon 7 and irradiates light downward. The upper crune illumination unit 73U is constituted by an LED substrate having a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs), for example. In the present embodiment, the upper cruising illumination unit 73U is composed of one elongated LED board, but the arrangement of the LED boards can be changed as appropriate.

  The lower crune illumination unit 73B is provided on the upper surface (front surface) side of the lower support plate 76 provided below the croon 7 and irradiates light upward. The lower cruising illumination unit 73B is composed of, for example, an LED substrate having a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs), similarly to the upper cruising illumination unit 73U. In the lower cruising illumination unit 73B of the present embodiment, three elongated LED substrates are arranged in a triangular shape so as to surround the opening of the lower support plate 76, but the arrangement of the LED substrates can be changed as appropriate.

  Usually, the space on the back side of the first board surface 11 is dark, and the player M sees the Kleon 7 through the transmission type liquid crystal panel 36 and the transparent plate 25 of the light transmission part 23. Kruon 7 is very difficult to see. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the upper cruising lighting unit 73U and the lower cruising lighting unit 73B are provided as the cruising lighting unit 73, and the cruising 7 is made of a material having light scattering properties. , Kroon 7 appears bright due to scattered light when illuminated from above and below.

  Moreover, since the light transmission part 23 of the 1st board surface 11 is a place where the light-guide plate 24 was hollowed out, if there was no croon illumination part 73, the area | region corresponding to the light transmission part 23 among transmission type liquid crystal panels 36 Therefore, the backlight of the transmissive liquid crystal panel 36 does not exist. As a result, not only is it difficult to see the Kroon 7, but there is a problem in that the visibility of the image on the transmissive liquid crystal panel 36 is significantly reduced.

  On the other hand, in this embodiment, since the upper crune illumination unit 73U and the lower crune illumination unit 73B are provided and the croon 7 is made of a material having light scattering properties, the light scattered by the croon 7 is light. The transmissive liquid crystal panel 36 is irradiated through the transmissive portion 23. In other words, the cruising illumination unit 73 illuminates the transmissive liquid crystal panel 36 indirectly with the light scattered by the cruising 7 as well as simply illuminating the cruising 7. Thereby, the visibility of the image of the transmissive liquid crystal panel 36 can be improved.

  In addition, the control unit 18 may control the cruising illumination unit 73 so as to adjust the amount of light emitted from the cruising 7 according to the game situation. Thereby, according to the situation of the game, for example, when a physical lottery that is important for the player M is performed, it is possible to perform effects such as increasing the amount of light and making the Kleung 7 stand out brighter and more. You can make progress. In this case, the control unit 18 may control the first panel lighting unit 27 at the same time as well as controlling the croon lighting unit 73. For example, while increasing the light amount of the cruising illuminating unit 73 and decreasing the light amount of the first panel surface illuminating unit 27, the cruising 7 may be made to appear brighter and stand out.

  Further, the control unit 18 may control the cruising illumination unit 73 so as to adjust the wavelength component of the light emitted from the cruising 7 according to the game situation. Thereby, depending on the situation of the game, for example, when a physical lottery advantageous to the player M is performed, the croon 7 is illuminated with red light, and when a disadvantageous physical lottery is performed, the croon 7 is illuminated with blue light. The game can be performed and the progress of the game can be increased.

  It should be noted that, instead of the configuration of illuminating the croon 7 from a remote position as in the present embodiment, a configuration in which a light emitting element such as an LED is installed in the croon 7 itself is used as a backlight of the transmissive liquid crystal panel 36. May be. Further, not only the croon 7 but also the second board surface 12 is made of a light scattering material, and an illuminating unit for illuminating the second board surface 12 from the front surface, the back surface or the side surface is provided, and this is used as the backlight of the transmissive liquid crystal panel 36 May be used.

The control unit 18 causes the transmissive liquid crystal panel 36 to display the attribute assigned to the pocket 7b of the crone 7 in the progress of the second game. Accordingly, the control unit 18 receives a signal from a sensor provided in the pocket 7b, and advances the second game based on the timing when the ball 13 falls into the pocket 7b.

  For example, a rotating roulette 88 is displayed as an example of the image of the second game. The control unit 18 sets an attribute of the roulette 88 at a position corresponding to the pocket 7b, for example, “jackpot”, as a reward at the timing when the ball 13 falls into the pocket 7b. Thereby, the player M can obtain “jackpot” as a reward. At this time, a plurality of balls 13 are supplied from the jackpot ball insertion unit 3.

  As described above, the second game is not necessarily limited to the game progressing based on the timing at which the ball 13 has dropped into the pocket 7b of the croon 7. For example, a plurality of pockets 7b may be provided in the croon 7 and the second game may be advanced based on position information of the pocket 7b where the ball 13 has dropped. Alternatively, a sensor may be provided at the lower end portion or the intermediate portion of the second board surface 12, and the second game may be advanced based on the timing when the ball 13 passes the lower end portion or the intermediate portion of the second board surface 12.
