The symbol combination of the decorative drawing which can recognize this deviation becomes a deviation display of the display device 17.

  Also, in the symbol variation effect, the same decorative drawing is stopped and displayed in a specific symbol sequence (in the example, the left symbol column and the right symbol sequence) among the plurality of symbol sequences, and the remaining symbol sequences (in the example) The middle symbol row) is displayed in a variably displayed manner (reach display), so that the player can recognize that the reach has occurred. A specific example of reach display is a symbol combination (“1 ↓ 1”, “4 ↓ 4”, etc.) in which the same decorative drawing is stopped and displayed in the left symbol row and the right symbol row. In addition, “↓” indicates that it is changing. In addition, the decorations of the specific symbol sequence (left symbol column and right symbol column) that form the reach display are set to the temporary stop display state, and the decoration symbols are stopped and displayed in the remaining symbol columns (middle symbol column). After the stop display), the decorations of all the symbol columns are displayed in a fixed stop display.

  In addition, as a result of the special figure variation display performed in the first special figure display unit 50A and the second special figure display unit 50B, the display device 17 displays a combination of decorative symbols corresponding to the displayed special figure. The That is, the special figure displayed on the first special figure display unit 50A and the second special figure display unit 50B and the symbol combination of the decorative figure displayed on the display device 17 correspond to each other, and the symbol variation effect ends. Then, the special figure is confirmed and stopped on the first special figure display unit 50A and the second special figure display unit 50B, and the decorative figure is displayed on each symbol row of the display device 17 to be confirmed and stopped. In addition, the symbol combination of the decoration figure with respect to a special symbol is not necessarily one-to-one, and the symbol combination by one decoration figure is selected from among the symbol combinations by a plurality of decoration figures for one special symbol. Yes.

(About bonus game status)
The pachinko machine 10 according to the embodiment has a function of giving the first privilege game state as a game state (privilege) advantageous to the player after the big hit game is over. Here, as a 1st privilege game state, the winning opportunity of the pachinko ball to the said special prize opening 30a is a state which increases compared with the state where the said 1st privilege game state is not provided. Specifically, in the first privilege gaming state, the chance of winning a pachinko ball to the special winning opening 30a can be increased by changing the jackpot probability from a low probability to a high probability. In the following description, the first privilege gaming state is referred to as a “probable change state” for convenience.

  The probability changing function of the present embodiment reduces the jackpot determination probability (hit probability) after the jackpot game is over, provided that the type of jackpot symbol that is confirmed and stopped displayed on the display device 17 is a predetermined probability changing symbol. This is a function that gives a probability change state that varies from probability to high probability. Note that a state to which a probability variation state is not assigned is referred to as a non-probability variation state. In the embodiment, the jackpot to which the probability variation state is given after the jackpot game ends is the probability variation jackpot, and the jackpot to which the probability variation state is not imparted is the non-probability variation jackpot. Further, in the case of a big hit to which a probability change state is given, the probability change state is continuously given after the big hit game is finished until the next big hit is generated. In this way, when a probability variation state is given, the probability of jackpot determination fluctuates with a high probability and it is easy for a jackpot to occur.Therefore, the probability variation state is advantageous for the player, and the player will become a probability variation jackpot. Playing games while expecting. The period during which the probability variation state is given is not limited to the above. For example, the probability variation state may be continuously applied until the predetermined condition is satisfied after the probability variation state is provided, and the transition to the non-probability variation state may be made on condition that the predetermined condition is satisfied. Here, the predetermined condition may be the number of changes in the design change effect after the probability change state is given. In addition, whether to shift to the non-probable change state for each symbol variation effect is determined (falling lottery) based on a random number acquired in response to the winning of the pachinko ball to the start winning opening 29a, 29b, and winning the falling lottery It is also possible to shift to a non-probable change state on the condition.

  Further, the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment has a function of giving a second privilege game state (privilege) as a game state advantageous to the player after the big hit game is over. Here, the second privilege gaming state is a state where the winning chance of the pachinko ball to the second start winning opening 29b is increased as compared to a state where the second privilege gaming state is not given. Specifically, in the second privilege gaming state, (1) a usual change executed when a pachinko ball passes through the gate unit 31 (more specifically, when the gate sensor 45 detects a pachinko ball). Shortening of display change time, (2) Fluctuation probability per base map from low probability to high probability, (3) Opening time of start opening / closing member 29c for opening the second start winning opening 29b once per per base map By increasing the number, it is possible to increase the chance of winning the pachinko ball to the second start winning opening 29b. In the second privilege gaming state, the above (1) to (3) can be used alone or in combination. In addition, when increasing the opening time of the start opening / closing member 29c for opening the second start winning opening 29b once per normal figure, it may be realized by simply extending the opening time of the opening opening / closing member 29c. Alternatively, it can be realized by increasing the number of times of opening / closing of the start opening / closing member 29c, or these may be combined. In the following description, a state in which the above (1) to (3) are combined is referred to as a “variable state” for convenience.

  Here, the period during which the variable state is given (number of variable times) can be configured to change according to the type of jackpot symbol determined when the jackpot is won. Specifically, if the type of jackpot symbol is a predetermined probability variation symbol, a setting is made so that a variable state is given until the next jackpot occurs, and the type of jackpot symbol is predetermined. In the case of a non-probable variable symbol, the variable state is set to be given until a predetermined number of symbol variation effects are executed. In the present embodiment, the shortened state becomes a winning rate improvement state.

(About jackpot games)
Next, the big hit game (win game) given by the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment will be described. The jackpot game is set to start after the big hit symbol is confirmed and stopped on the first special symbol display unit 50A or the second special symbol display unit 50B as a result of the special symbol variation display (after the end of the symbol variation effect). Thus, the special opening / closing member 30b of the special winning device 30 is opened / closed according to the type of the winning game (hit symbol). That is, the jackpot game is set to start after the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed on the special chart display portions 50A and 50B as a result of the special chart variation display, and an opening effect indicating the start of the jackpot game, and an opening effect. The game is composed of a round game repeated after a specified number of rounds with an interval time between rounds and an ending effect indicating the end of the big hit game. One round game ends when a specified number (for example, 10) of pachinko balls win the special winning opening 30a or when a specified time (round game time) elapses from the start of each round game. During the interval time between rounds, the special opening / closing member 30b is held in a closed state. Here, in the opening / closing mode (opening / closing pattern) of the special opening / closing member 30b of the special winning device 30 in each round game of the jackpot game, a single opening operation is performed under the condition that the pachinko balls are continuously fired at a predetermined interval. A mode of performing a long-time opening operation in which a predetermined number (for example, 10) of pachinko balls determined for a round game in (operation from opening to closing) continues to open for a time that can be won, and the long A mode of performing a short-time opening operation in which the opening time of the special opening / closing member 30b is set shorter than the time opening operation is set. For example, the special opening / closing member 30b can be opened for a maximum of 25 seconds in the long-time opening operation, and the special opening / closing member 30b can be opened for a maximum of 0.04 seconds in the short-time release operation.

(About types of jackpot games)
In the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, when the big hit determination is won, one big hit game is determined from a plurality of types of big hit games having different values to be given to the player, and the determined big hit game is given. Here, which jackpot game is awarded among a plurality of types of jackpot games is determined based on the type of jackpot symbol (Special Figure 1 and Special Figure 2) determined when winning the jackpot determination. It has become so. The jackpot game that can be set in the pachinko machine 10 includes, for example, a type in which the value is made different by changing the number of rounds such as 2, 4, 8, 15, etc., and the probability change after the jackpot game. Like the probability change / variation big hit game to which the state and the variable state are given, the probability change big hit game to which only the probability change state is given after the big hit game, the variable big hit game to which only the variable state is given after the big hit game, etc. It is possible to set a type whose value differs depending on the type of privilege given after the big hit game.

  The probability variation state and the variation state are determined by the type of jackpot symbol determined when affirmative is made in the jackpot determination (winning determination) executed by the main control CPU 60a with the winning of the start winning ports 29a and 29b as a trigger. It is. That is, the main control CPU 60a functions as a means for providing a probability variation state in which the probability of occurrence of a big hit (the probability that the determination result of the big hit determination is affirmative) is higher than usual, and also provides the probability variation state. It functions as a probability variation determination means for determining whether or not. In addition, the main control CPU 60a, when a big hit occurs (when the determination result of the big hit determination is affirmative), a short / short state where the probability that the pachinko ball wins the second start winning opening 29b is high (the winning rate improvement) (State), and also functions as a variable state determination unit (winning rate improvement state determination unit) for determining whether or not to apply the variable state. Note that the probability variation state and the variation state are benefits that may be given to the player when a winning is made to the start winning means, as in the big hit game.

(About moving part production)
The pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment is configured to be able to execute a movable part effect that suggests that there is a possibility that a big hit game (win game) may be awarded after the end of the symbol variation effect by the movable effect device 69. . That is, the special figure variation pattern designation that designates the special figure fluctuation pattern determined by the main control CPU 60a triggered by winning at the start winning ports 29a and 29b (specifically, the ball detection by the start prize detection sensors 41 and 42). When the command is input to the effect control CPU 61a, the effect control CPU 61a determines whether or not to execute the movable part effect to determine whether or not to execute the movable part effect by the movable effect device 69. When it is determined to execute the movable part effect, one operation pattern is determined from the plurality of types of operation patterns MP1 to MP3, and the movable part effect based on the determined operation pattern is displayed in the corresponding symbol variation effect. Configured to run on. That is, in the embodiment, the movable part effect execution determination unit for determining whether or not to execute the movable part effect suggesting that a big hit game (win game) is given after the end of the symbol variation effect, the movable part effect execution When the availability determining unit determines to execute the movable portion effect, the operation pattern determining unit capable of determining one operation pattern MP1 to MP3 from the plurality of types of operation patterns MP1 to MP3 and the determined operation patterns MP1 to MP1. The effect control CPU 61a has a function as a movable part effect execution control means for causing the movable effect device 69 to execute the movable part effect based on MP3.

(About operation pattern)
The effect control ROM 61b is set with a plurality of operation patterns for operating the movable parts 70, 71, 72 by controlling the drive motors 85A, 85B, 101 included in the movable effect device 69 by the effect control CPU 61a. Yes. In the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, three operation patterns are set. The first operation pattern (operation pattern) MP1 is configured so that the second movable portions 71 and 72 are moved (moved) to the movable position in a state where the first movable portion 70 is stopped at the initial position. This is a pattern for driving the two-drive motor 101 (see FIG. 12). The second operation pattern (operation pattern) MP2 is obtained by moving the first movable unit 70 from the initial position to the movable position in a state where the second movable units 71 and 72 are stopped at the initial position. This is a pattern for driving the first drive motors 85A and 85B so as to operate the movable part 70 to return to the initial position (see FIG. 13). Further, the third operation pattern (operation pattern) MP3 drives the first movable motors 85A and 85B so as to move the first movable unit 70 to the movable position, and then moves the second movable units 71 and 72 to the movable position. In this pattern, the second drive motor 101 is driven so as to be operated in the same manner. The first operation pattern MP1 drives the second drive motor 101 at an appropriate timing after the second movable parts 71 and 72 are moved to the movable positions, thereby causing the second movable parts 71 and 72 to move. It is set to return from the movable position to the initial position. The third operation pattern MP3 drives the second drive motor 101 at an appropriate timing after the second movable parts 71 and 72 are moved to the movable positions, thereby causing the second movable parts 71 and 72 to move. In addition to returning from the movable position to the initial position, the first drive motors 85A and 85B are driven to return the first movable portion 70 from the movable position to the initial position. Note that the number of operation patterns and the operation contents described above are examples, and three or more operation patterns having different operation contents may be set.

  In the pachinko machine 10 according to the embodiment, the effect control CPU 61a operates in the first operation pattern MP1 that operates the second movable parts 71 and 72 with the first movable part 70 stopped at the initial position. In the case of controlling the two-drive motor 101 (see FIG. 12), the effect control CPU 61a operates so as to operate in the third operation pattern MP3 in which the second movable parts 71 and 72 are operated after the first movable part 70 is operated. When the drive motors 85A, 85B, and 101 are controlled (refer to FIG. 14), the viewing area in which the display unit 17a of the display device 17 can be viewed from the front side is configured differently. Specifically, in the third operation pattern MP3, the visual recognition area where the display unit 17a can be viewed from the front side is narrower than the first operation pattern MP1.

  Here, in the movable effect device 69 of the embodiment, when the second movable parts 71 and 72 linked by the second moving mechanism 99 are the movable parts on the back side, the second movable parts 71 and 72 are used. The first movable part 70 in which the decoration part 76 is located in the forefront of the plurality of movable parts 70, 71, 72 provided in the movable effect device 69 at the initial position is the movable part on the near side. That is, there are a first operation pattern MP1 for operating only the second movable portions 71 and 72, which are the movable portions on the back side, and a second operation pattern MP2 for operating only the first movable portion 70, which is the movable portion on the near side. This is an operation pattern in which any one of the plurality of movable parts 70, 71, 72 included in the movable effect device 69 is operated independently, and the first movable part 70 and the second movable parts 71, 72 are operated. The third operation pattern MP3 is an operation pattern in which the first movable unit 70 that is the front side movable unit is operated and then the second movable units 71 and 72 that are the back side movable units are moved to the movable position. .

  In the pachinko machine 10, the operation patterns MP1 to MP3 are performed so that the reliability of the big hit game (win game) after the end of the symbol variation effect varies depending on the operation patterns MP1 to MP3 executed by the movable effect device 69. The appearance rate of is set. In the embodiment, in the order of the first operation pattern MP1, the second operation pattern MP2, and the third operation pattern MP3, the reliability that the big hit game is given is set to be higher. That is, in the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 10, the reliability of the first operation pattern MP1 is “low”, the reliability of the second operation pattern MP2 is “medium”, and the reliability of the third operation pattern MP3 is “high”. Is set to In addition, the reliability that the jackpot game is given is the total appearance rate that is the sum of the appearance rate when the jackpot game (win game) is given and the appearance rate when the jackpot game is not given (disjoint) The ratio of the appearance rate when a big hit game is awarded is shown. That is, the reliability with which the big hit game is given increases as the ratio of the appearance rate when the big hit game is given with respect to the overall appearance rate becomes higher. And the appearance rate for setting the reliability to which the big hit game is given can be defined by the distribution mode (number of distribution) of the determination value for operation pattern lottery distributed to each operation pattern MP1 to MP3. it can.

  Here, in the effect control CPU 61a, as the motion pattern determination random numbers used for the motion pattern lottery, 100 integer values of “1” to “100” are set in the embodiment, and a predetermined cycle ( It is updated one by one in 4 ms). The effect control ROM 61b stores operation pattern lottery determination values used for operation pattern lottery, and the operation pattern lottery determination values are “1” to “100” that can be taken by random numbers for operation pattern determination. A predetermined number of determination values are defined for each operation pattern from among all 100 integers up to. In addition, the distribution of the determination values for the operation pattern lottery is set differently when the result of the big hit determination is affirmative (big hit) and when the result is negative (out). FIG. 10 shows an operation pattern sorting lottery table T1 when the result of the big hit determination is affirmative (big hit) and an operation pattern sorting lottery table T2 when the result of the big hit determination is negative (out). In each of the distribution lottery tables T1 and T2, 100 operation pattern lottery determination values are allocated to each operation pattern, whereby the reliability with which the big hit game of each operation pattern is given is defined as described above. It is like that.

  That is, in the operation pattern distribution lottery table T1, 15 operation pattern lottery determination values “1” to “15” are distributed to the first operation pattern MP1, and “16” to “45” are allocated to the second operation pattern MP2. 30 operation pattern lottery determination values are distributed, and 55 operation pattern lottery determination values “46” to “100” are distributed to the third operation pattern MP3. On the other hand, in the operation pattern distribution lottery table T2, 55 operation pattern lottery determination values “1” to “55” are distributed to the first operation pattern MP1, and “56” to ““ Thirty-five operation pattern lottery determination values “85” are allocated, and fifteen operation pattern lottery determination values “86” to “100” are allocated to the third operation pattern MP3.

  As described above, with respect to the distribution of the determination value for the operation pattern lottery when the result of the big hit determination is affirmative, the determination value for the operation pattern lottery in the order of the first operation pattern MP1, the second operation pattern MP2, and the third operation pattern MP3. As for the distribution of the operation pattern lottery determination value when the result of the big hit determination is negative, the operation pattern in the order of the first operation pattern MP1, the second operation pattern MP2, and the third operation pattern MP3. By reducing the number of assigned lottery determination values, the reliability of the big hit game when the movable portion effect based on each motion pattern is executed by the movable effect device 69 is set to the first motion pattern MP1 and the second motion pattern MP2. The operation pattern MP2 and the third operation pattern MP3 are increased in this order. Specifically, for example, when the result of the big hit determination is affirmative (big hit), the third operation pattern MP3 is most easily selected, and when the result of the big hit determination is negative (out), the third operation pattern MP3 is the highest. Since it is hard to select, when the movable part production | presentation based on 3rd operation | movement pattern MP3 is performed with the movable production | presentation apparatus 69, the reliability with which a big hit game is provided becomes high. On the other hand, when the result of the big hit determination is affirmative (big hit), the first operation pattern MP1 is most difficult to be selected, and when the result of the big hit determination is negative (out), the first operation pattern MP1 is most easily selected. Therefore, when the movable part effect based on the first motion pattern MP1 is executed by the movable effect device 69, the reliability with which the big hit game is given is lowered. In other words, the first operation pattern (the second movable part with the first movable part 70 stopped at the initial position is more effective in the case of the hit determination result than in the case where the hit determination is an outlier determination result. The operation control CPU 61a is driven by the third operation pattern (operation pattern for operating the second movable parts 71, 72 after operating the first movable part 70) MP3 rather than the operation pattern for operating 71, 72) MP1. The ratio of controlling the motors 85A, 85B, 101 is increased. Furthermore, in the case where the hit determination result is a hit determination result, any of the movable portions 70, 71, 72 included in the movable effect device 69 is operated independently compared to the case where the hit determination result is an outlier determination result. After operating the first movable part 70, which is the movable part on the near side provided in the movable parts 70, 71, 72 provided in the movable effect device 69, after the first movement pattern MP 1 and the second movement pattern MP 2 are operated. The ratio at which the effect control CPU 61a controls the drive motors 85A, 85B, and 101 is increased in the third operation pattern MP3 that moves the second movable parts 71 and 72, which are movable parts, to the movable position.

(About display effects pattern)
In the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, the display content of the display effect performed by the display device 17 is specified in the effect control ROM 61b corresponding to the plurality of operation patterns MP1 to MP3 that can be executed by the movable effect device 69. Display patterns PA1 to PA3 (see FIG. 11) to be stored are stored. When the production control CPU 61a determines one operation pattern by lottery of the operation patterns, the display control CPU 61a outputs a display pattern designation command corresponding to the operation pattern to the display control CPU 62a, and the display control CPU 62a displays the display pattern designation command. Is input, control is performed so that an image of the content of the effect based on the display data corresponding to the display pattern is displayed on the display unit 17a of the display device 17.

  In the display patterns PA1 to PA3, the first display pattern PA1 corresponds to the first operation pattern MP1, the second display pattern PA2 corresponds to the second operation pattern MP2, and the third display pattern PA3 corresponds to the third operation pattern MP3. It corresponds. Specifically, the display content specified by the first display pattern PA1 is obtained by operating the second movable parts 71 and 72 to the movable position while holding the first movable part 70 in the movable effect device 69 at the initial position. In such a state, the content is set to display the effect in the first viewing area SP1 (see FIG. 12) that is visible from the front side without being hidden by the movable parts 70, 71, 72 of the display unit 17a of the display device 17. Yes. The display content specified by the second display pattern PA2 is obtained by operating the first movable part 70 to the movable position while holding the second movable parts 71 and 72 in the movable effect device 69 at the initial position. In the state, the content is set to display the effect in the second visual recognition area SP2 (see FIG. 13) that is visible from the front side without being hidden by the first movable portion 70 of the display portion 17a of the display device 17. The second visual recognition area SP2 appears on the upper side and the lower side of the first movable part 70 at the movable position, as shown in FIG. Further, the display content specified by the third display pattern PA3 is the display content of the display device 17 in a state where both the first movable portion 70 and the second movable portions 71 and 72 in the movable effect device 69 are moved to the movable position. The content is set to display the effect in the third viewing area SP3 (see FIG. 14) that is visible from the front side without being hidden by the movable parts 70, 71, 72 of the display unit 17a. The three viewing areas SP1 to SP3 are set to have different sizes. Specifically, the relationship is first viewing area SP1> second viewing area SP2> third viewing area SP3, where the first viewing area SP1 is the widest and the third viewing area SP3 is the narrowest. In the initial state in which the movable part effect is not executed by the movable effect device 69, that is, in the state where both the first movable part 70 and the second movable parts 71 and 72 are located at the initial position, The reference visual recognition area SPA (see FIG. 2) that is visible from the front side without being hidden by the movable parts 70, 71, 72 of the display portion 17a is wider than the first visual recognition area SP1.

  As described above, the main control as the hit determination means for determining whether or not to generate the hit game triggered by the winning (satisfaction of the start condition) in any of the start winning ports 29a and 29b, and the main control as the hit determination means. When the determination result of the hit determination of the CPU 60a is affirmative (win determination result), the main control CPU 60a has each function as a hit game determination means for determining a hit game to be given from a plurality of types of hit games. ing. Further, the main control CPU 60a has a function as a hit game giving means for giving a hit game of the type determined by the main control CPU 60a as the hit judging means after the end of the special figure change display (after the end of the symbol change effect). Further, the main control CPU 60a specifies the variation time of the symbol variation effect to be performed by the display means (special symbol display units 50A, 50B, display device 17) when a winning in either of the start winning ports 29a, 29b is triggered. A function as a variation pattern determining means for determining a variation pattern (special pattern variation pattern) to be determined from a plurality of variation patterns stored in the main control ROM 60b serving as a storage device is provided.

  In addition, the effect control CPU 61a is an operation pattern determining unit that determines an operation pattern from a plurality of types of operation patterns stored in the effect control ROM 61b, and a movable effect device that uses the operation pattern determined by the effect control CPU 61a as the operation pattern determination unit. 69 has a function as drive control means for controlling the drive means (drive motors 85A, 85B, 101) included in 69 to drive. In addition, the effect control CPU 61a is configured to control the contents of the effect executed on the display device 17 via the display control CPU 62a, and functions as an effect execution control means for controlling the effect executed on the display device 17. The effect control CPU 61a is provided.

(Effects of Example)
Next, the operation of the pachinko machine 10 according to the above-described embodiment will be described.

  When the player rotates the operation lever 16a of the operation handle 16 provided on the front side of the front frame 13, a pachinko ball launched from the hitting device is launched into the game area 23 of the game board 20. . The pachinko balls launched into the game area 23 flow down the outer periphery of the frame-shaped decorative body 24, and when the pachinko balls win the first start winning opening 29a or the second start winning opening 29b, the corresponding A detection signal from the first start winning detection sensor 41 or the second start winning detection sensor 42 is input to the main control CPU 60a, and the main control CPU 60a reads the value of the random number for determining the big hit from the main control ROM 60b, Store in a predetermined storage area. The main control CPU 60a compares the jackpot determination random number stored in the main control RAM 60c with the jackpot determination value stored in the main control ROM 60b before the start of the symbol variation effect. A big hit judgment (hit judgment) is performed.

  The main control CPU 60a determines the big hit when the result of the big hit determination is affirmative (the value of the random number for the big hit determination matches the big hit determination value). The main control CPU 60a which has determined the big hit reads the random number for determining the special figure from the main control RAM 60c, determines the symbol (Special Fig. 1 or Special Fig. 2) previously associated with the value as the big hit symbol, Information indicating the type is stored in the main control RAM 60c. Then, the main control CPU 60a determines a special figure variation pattern for the jackpot derivation effect according to the type of symbol, and sends a control command corresponding to the determined special figure variation pattern for the jackpot derivation effect at a predetermined timing. 61 (production control CPU 61a). Further, when the determination result of the big hit determination is negative (the big hit determination random number value and the big hit determination value do not match), the main control CPU 60a determines the outage and displays the selected special figure variation pattern for the outage effect. The control command corresponding to the determined special figure variation pattern for the off-stage effect is output to the effect control board 61 (effect control CPU 61a) at a predetermined timing.

  When the special effect control CPU 61a inputs a special figure fluctuation pattern designation command corresponding to a special figure fluctuation pattern for a jackpot derivation effect or a special figure fluctuation pattern for a loss effect, does the movable control device 69 execute the movable part effect? A determination is made as to whether or not the movable part effect to determine whether or not can be executed. That is, the effect control CPU 61a obtains an execution feasibility determination random number when a special figure variation pattern designation command is input, and uses the obtained execution feasibility determination random number for execution determination of the movable part effect. It is determined whether or not to execute the movable part effect as compared with the execution determination value set in the lottery table.

  The effect control CPU 61a determines one operation pattern from a plurality of types of operation patterns MP1 to MP3 when the execution of the movable part effect is determined in the execution feasibility determination, and determines the determined operation pattern. Executed during the symbol variation effect. Specifically, when the big hit determination at the main control CPU 60a is affirmative (big hit) and the execution feasibility determination is affirmative, the effect control CPU 61a displays the special figure fluctuation pattern corresponding to the special figure fluctuation pattern for the big hit derivation effect. When a specified command is input, an operation pattern determination random number is acquired, and the acquired operation pattern determination random number is used as an operation pattern lottery determination set in the operation pattern sorting lottery table T1 (FIG. 10). One of the operation patterns MP1 to MP3 is determined by comparing with the value. Further, when the big hit determination at the main control CPU 60a is negative (missing) and the execution feasibility determination is affirmative, the effect control CPU 61a inputs a special figure fluctuation pattern designation command corresponding to the special figure fluctuation pattern for the offending effect. When the operation pattern determination random number is acquired, the operation pattern determination random number is compared with the operation pattern lottery determination value set in the operation pattern sorting lottery table T2 (FIG. 10). Then, one of the operation effect patterns MP1 to MP3 is determined.

  When the effect control CPU 61a determines the operation pattern, it outputs an operation effect designation command corresponding to the determined operation pattern to the movable part control board 65, and the movable part control board 65 causes the drive motor 85A, 85B and 101 are controlled, and the movable parts 70, 71, and 72 are operated with the determined operation pattern. In addition, the effect control CPU 61a outputs a display effect command of a display pattern corresponding to the determined operation pattern to the display control board 62. Then, the display control CPU 62a controls the display device 17 to display an image based on display data corresponding to the input display effect command on the display unit 17a.

  For example, when the first operation pattern MP1 is determined as the operation pattern, the movable part control board 65 drives and controls the second drive motor 101 to rotate in the first direction, and as shown in FIG. The second movable parts 71 and 72 are moved to the movable position. That is, with the first movable portion 70 held at the initial position, the front second movable portion 71 moves upward and the rear second movable portion 72 moves downward with respect to the first movable portion 70. The two movable parts 71 and 72 are exposed at the upper and lower positions of the first movable part 70 so as to be visible. Note that the front second movable portion 71 moved above the first movable portion 70 overlaps the rear of the decorative member 38, but the decorative member 38 is configured to be light transmissive, so that the movable member 71 is in the movable position. The moved front second movable portion 71 can be recognized from the front side through the decorative member 38. In addition, when the second movable portion 72 is moved below the first movable portion 70, the visual recognition area on the display portion 17a of the display device 17 becomes narrower than the reference visual recognition area SPA (first visual recognition area SP1). Becomes). Then, a display effect based on the first display pattern PA1 is executed in the first viewing region SP1 below the second movable portion 72. That is, the entertainment of the production can be improved by moving the second movable parts 71 and 72 so as to extend vertically with respect to the first movable part 70 at the initial position. Further, the entertainment can be further improved by the effect that the second movable portion 72 extends so as to overlap the front side of the display portion 17a and narrows the viewing area. Further, in the display device 17, since the display effect is displayed in the first visual recognition area SP1 based on the first display pattern PA1 corresponding to the first operation pattern MP1, the display device 17 is moved to overlap the front side of the display unit 17a. The display effect is not hidden by the two movable parts 72, and the interest of the effect is not lost.

  Further, when the second operation pattern MP2 is determined as the operation pattern, the movable part control board 65 drives and controls the first drive motors 85A and 85B, and the two second movable parts 71 as shown in FIG. , 72 is held at the initial position, and the first movable portion 70 is moved to the movable position. As the first movable unit 70 moves to the movable position, the display unit 17 a of the display device 17 is divided into upper and lower parts by the first movable unit 70. And the display effect based on 2nd display pattern PA2 is performed in 2nd visual recognition area | region SP2 of the upper and lower sides of the 1st movable part 70, and the interest of an effect improves. That is, even when the movable portions 70, 71, 72 of the movable effect device 69 are operated based on the second motion pattern MP2, the display device 17 is based on the second display pattern PA2 corresponding to the second motion pattern MP2. Since the display effect is displayed in the second visual recognition area SP2, the display effect is not hidden by the first movable unit 70 moved so as to overlap the front side of the display unit 17a, and the effect of the effect is cut off. Absent. In addition, the drive motors 85A, 85B, and 101 are driven and controlled by the second operation pattern MP2, so that the first movable unit 70 moves to the approximate center position of the display unit 17a and overlaps the front side to narrow the viewing area. The interest can be further improved. In the second operation pattern MP2, the movable part control board 65 moves the first movable part 70 to the movable position, and then drives the first drive motor 85A at an appropriate timing without driving the second drive motor 101. , 85B are controlled to return the first movable part 70 to the initial position. That is, since the first movable portion 70 moves up and down while the second movable portions 71 and 72 are hidden behind the decoration portion 76 of the first movable portion 70, the second movable portions 71 and 72 operate. You can enjoy the production while expecting to do.

  Further, when the third operation pattern MP3 is determined as the operation pattern, the movable part control board 65 first drives and controls the first drive motors 85A and 85B to initially set the two second movable parts 71 and 72. The 1st movable part 70 is moved to a movable position, hold | maintaining at a position. Next, the movable part control board 65 drives and controls the second drive motor 101 to move the two second movable parts 71 and 72 to the movable positions as shown in FIG. As the first movable part 70 and the second movable parts 71 and 72 are both moved to the movable position, as shown in FIG. 14, there is an impact that a very large area of the display part 17a of the display device 17 is hidden. It becomes a production and can improve interest. In addition, the display effect based on the third display pattern PA3 is executed in the third visual recognition area SP3 hidden and sandwiched between the first movable part 70 and the second movable parts 71 and 72, so that the effect of the effect is enhanced. improves. In particular, since the two second movable parts 71 and 72 are separated from each other at the rear of the decorative part 76 in the first movable part 70, the movable parts 70, 71 and 72 have a sense of depth and produce an effect. It can enhance the interest.

  Here, an operation when the first movable unit 70 is moved between the initial position and the movable position will be described.

  At the initial position of the first movable portion 70, as shown in FIG. 4, the first movable portion 70 is held at the initial position by the engagement portion 75a engaging the engagement member 90 of the holding device 89. Has been. And when moving the 1st movable part 70 to a movable position based on the operation pattern which the said presentation control CPU61a determined, the said presentation control CPU61a is controlled to excite the said electromagnetic solenoid 92. FIG. That is, when the electromagnetic solenoid 92 is energized, the engagement member 90 moves from the holding position to the release position so that it is retracted from the lower side of the engagement portion 75a and the first movable portion 70 is allowed to descend. It becomes. Therefore, when the first drive motors 85A and 85B are driven to rotate in the direction of moving the first movable part 70 from the initial position to the movable position, the rack teeth 82a and 82a of the rack members 82 and 82 The first movable portion 70 is moved from the initial position toward the movable position under the meshing action of the transmission portions 86 and 86 with the gears. When energization to the electromagnetic solenoid 92 is stopped (interrupted) after the first movable part 70 is lowered from the initial position, the engaging member 90 is moved from the release position to the holding position by the biasing force of the spring member 91, The inclined surface 90a faces the moving path of the engaging portion 75a.

  When the first movable part 70 is moved from the movable position to the initial position, the first drive motors 85A and 85B are in a direction opposite to the direction in which the first movable part 70 is moved from the initial position to the movable position. The first movable part 70 is driven to rotate and moves from the movable position toward the initial position under the meshing action of the rack teeth 82a, 82a of the rack members 82, 82 and the gears of the transmission parts 86, 86. . As the first movable part 70 is raised, the engaging part 75a comes into contact with the inclined surface 90a of the engaging member 90 of the holding device 89 from below. As the first movable portion 70 is further raised, the engagement member 90 is pushed by the engagement portion 75a, and the engagement member 90 moves toward the release position against the biasing force of the spring member 91. As a result, the first movable portion 70 is allowed to rise. And if the 1st movable part 70 raises until the engaging part 75a remove | deviates from the inclined surface 90a of the engaging member 90, the engaging member 90 will move to a holding | maintenance position from the releasing position with the urging | biasing force of the said spring member 91. As a result, the engaging member 90 advances to the lower side of the engaging portion 75a and can come into contact with the lower surface of the engaging portion 75a.

  The first drive motors 85A and 85B are controlled to be stopped by the effect control CPU 61a when the first detection pieces 87 and 87 are detected by the first detection sensors 88A and 88B. When the first detection pieces 87 and 87 are detected by the first detection sensors 88A and 88B and the first drive motors 85A and 85B are controlled to stop, the engaging portion 75a is an inclined surface 90a of the engaging member 90. The first movable portion 70 is set to a position beyond the upper end of the first movable motor 70 and tends to descend by its own weight when the first drive motors 85A and 85B are stopped. The engaging portion 75a is engaged with the engaging member 90. By combining, the initial position is maintained (see FIG. 4).

  Since the first movable portion 70 is moved by the meshing action of the rack members 82 and 82 and the transmission portions 86 and 86 at both left and right end portions, the first movable portion 70 is stable without tilting in the left-right direction. Operation can be achieved. That is, stable and proper operations of the second movable parts 71 and 72 can be performed at the initial position and the movable position. When the first movable portion 70 is moved from the movable position to the initial position by the driving of the first drive motors 85A and 85B, the engaging portion 75a provided in the first movable portion 70 has the support base 79. The first movable unit 70 is configured to be held at the initial position by engaging with the engaging member 90 of the holding device 89 disposed in the first position. That is, since the first movable unit 70 can be held at the initial position by the holding device 89, it is not necessary to drive and control the first drive motors 85A and 85B in order to hold the first movable unit 70 at the initial position. The first movable portion 70 can be reliably held at the initial position while the drive motors 85A and 85B are stopped. Therefore, the driving load applied to the first drive motors 85A and 85B can be reduced, and the load on the control system can be reduced.

  Further, the engaging member 90 of the holding device 89 is moved from the holding position to the release position by the engaging portion 75a of the first movable portion 70 when the first movable portion 70 moves from the movable position to the initial position. Since it has been configured to face the position where it can be engaged with the engaging portion 75a by returning to the holding position by the biasing force of the spring member 91 after being moved, the engaging member 90 can be engaged with the engaging portion 75a. The drive means is not required, and the configuration can be simplified.

  In the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, during the symbol variation effect on the display device 17, the action pattern forms MP1 to MP3 performed by the movable effect device 69 are used to give a big hit game after the symbol variation effect. Since the degrees are different, it is possible to attract the player's interest in the operation of the movable parts 70, 71, 72. In addition, as an operation pattern, a second operation pattern MP2 in which only the first movable unit 70 is moved between the initial position and the movable position while the second movable units 71 and 72 are held at the initial position, The first movable unit 70 is moved to the movable position while the movable units 71 and 72 are held at the initial position, and the second movable unit 71 and 72 are moved to the movable position while the first movable unit 70 is held at the movable position. Since the third movement pattern MP3 to be moved to is set, it is possible to attract interest in the development after the first movable part 70 has moved to the movable position, and the interest of the production can be improved.

  In the pachinko machine 10 according to the embodiment, the second movable portions 71 and 72 are provided for the first movable portion 70 that operates between the initial position and the movable position, and the decoration of the first movable portion 70 is provided at the initial position. By making the second movable parts 71 and 72 hidden behind the part 76 visible from the front side with the movement to the movable position, the first movable part 70 and the second movable part 71, The production effect by the operation of 72 can be improved. That is, interest in the operations of the first movable unit 70 and the second movable units 71 and 72 can be increased, and the effect of production depending on the operation can be improved. Also, the expectation that a big hit game is given when the second movable parts 71 and 72 operate after the operation of the first movable part 70 rather than when the second movable parts 71 and 72 operate alone. Since the height is increased, the interest in the operations of the first movable portion 70 and the second movable portions 71 and 72 can be further increased.

  Further, the first movable unit 70 and the second movable units 71 and 72 are configured so that the region where the first movable unit 70 and the second movable units 71 and 72 overlap with each other changes with respect to the display unit 17a of the display device 17, and the second movable units 71 and 72 are independent. And when the second movable parts 71 and 72 are operated after the first movable part 70 is operated, the viewing areas SP1 to SP3 in which the display unit 17a of the display device 17 can be viewed from the front side are widened. Therefore, the size of the visual recognition areas SP1 to SP3 in which the display device 17 can be viewed from the front side can indicate the expectation that the big hit game is given, and the first movable unit 70 In addition, the interest in the operation of the second movable parts 71 and 72 can be further increased.

  Further, in the pachinko machine 10 according to the embodiment, the plurality of second movable parts 71 and 72 extending in the vertical direction with respect to the first movable part 70 are provided apart from each other in the front-rear direction. The impact accompanying the movement of the movable parts 71 and 72 to the movable position can be increased, and the effect of the operations of the first movable part 70 and the second movable parts 71 and 72 can be improved.

  Further, when the size of the visual recognition area visible from the front side of the display unit 17a in the display device 17 changes due to the movement of the movable units 70, 71, 72, the display device 17 performs an effect corresponding to the change. Therefore, it is possible to enhance the effect of the effect by enhancing the connection between the effect performed on the display device 17 and the operation effect of the first movable part 70 and the second movable parts 71 and 72. Further, the second movable unit 71 before moving in the direction opposite to the moving direction from the initial position of the first movable unit 70 to the movable position is displayed on the display device 17 on the initial position side of the first movable unit 70. By being positioned to overlap the front side of the portion 17a, it is possible to increase the impact when the first movable portion 70 and the front second movable portion 71 are operated. And, according to the pachinko machine 10 set so that the degree of reliability to which the big hit game (win game) is given after the end of the symbol variation effect is changed by the operation patterns MP1 to MP3 executed by the movable effect device 69, The viewing areas SPA, SP1, SP2, SP3 of the display unit 17a of the display device 17 are changed by the operations of the movable parts 70, 71, 72 based on the operation patterns MP1 to MP3, and the viewing areas SPA, SP1, SP2, The expectation that the big hit game (win game) is given after the end of the symbol variation effect can also be suggested by the effect executed corresponding to SP3. That is, not only the difference in the operation of the movable parts 70, 71, 72 but also the change in the viewing areas SPA, SP1, SP2, SP3 and the effects executed corresponding to the viewing areas SPA, SP1, SP2, SP3. Can be further improved. More specifically, in the embodiment in which the reliability of the big hit game is set higher in the order of the first operation pattern MP1, the second operation pattern MP2, and the third operation pattern MP3, the operation patterns MP1 and MP2 are set. , Indicating the expectation that will be a big hit by narrowing (smaller) the areas in the order of the visual recognition areas SP1, SP2, SP3 corresponding to MP3, and reducing the effect displayed on the display unit 17a of the display device 17. It is possible to improve the interest by new and unprecedented production.

(About the first alternative embodiment)
Next, a pachinko machine according to a first alternative embodiment will be described. For the pachinko machine according to the first alternative embodiment, only the parts different from the pachinko machine 10 of the above-described embodiment will be described, and the same reference numerals will be given to the same or similar members already described. In the above-described embodiment, the two second movable portions 71 and 72 disposed in the first movable portion 70 are configured to be interlocked by one second drive motor 101. However, in the first alternative embodiment, This is different from the embodiment in that each of the second movable parts 71 and 72 can be operated independently.

  That is, in the pachinko machine according to the first different embodiment, the movable effect device 69 is provided with two second moving mechanisms 99, 99, and the second moving parts 71 corresponding to the second moving mechanisms 99, 99 are provided. , 72 can move independently between an initial position and a movable position. The configuration of the second moving mechanisms 99 and 99 in the first alternative embodiment is different from that of the embodiment only in that the operating member 100 is linked to only one second movable portion 71 and 72 corresponding thereto. So I will explain briefly. For convenience, the reference numeral of the second movement mechanism corresponding to the front second movable part 71 is marked with “A”, and the sign of the second movement mechanism corresponding to the rear second movable part 72 is marked with “B”. It shall be attached. That is, the two actuating members 100A and 100B are rotatably supported by the main body portion 75 of the first movable portion 70, and the corresponding second drive motors in which the actuating members 100A and 100B are provided on the main body portion 75 are provided. 101A and 101B and transmission parts 102A and 102B are configured to swing within a predetermined angle range. Then, the corresponding second movable parts 71 and 72 are linked to the operating members 100A and 100B via the linkage rods 95 and 98, respectively. Thus, by driving and controlling the second drive motors 101A and 101B, the second movable parts 71 and 72 can independently move between the initial position and the movable position. The second detection pieces 103 and 103 are provided in the second movable parts 71 and 72, respectively, and the second detection sensors 104A and 104B capable of detecting the second detection pieces 103 and 103 at the initial positions. Are provided in the main body 75. And each 2nd detection sensor 104A, 104B is wiring-connected to the said presentation control board 61 (refer FIG. 15). The second drive motors 101A and 101B are connected to the movable part control board 65 by wiring (see FIG. 15), and the second detection pieces 103 and 103 corresponding to the second detection sensors 104A and 104B are provided. The production control CPU 61a provided in the production control board 61 stops the corresponding second drive motors 101A and 101B on the basis of the detected signal input via the movable part control board 65, so that the corresponding second movable part 71 is provided. , 72 can be held at the initial position.

(About the operation pattern of the first alternative embodiment)
In the movable effect device 69 according to the first alternative embodiment configured so that the front second movable portion 71 and the rear second movable portion 72 can be independently operated, the movable portion provided in the movable effect device 69 A plurality of types shown in FIG. 16 are set as operation patterns related to the moving part effects 70, 71, 72. Note that the operation pattern of the first different embodiment is referred to as another operation pattern to distinguish it from the operation pattern of the embodiment.

  That is, in the first alternative embodiment, five different operation patterns are set. The first separate operation pattern MPB1 corresponds to moving (moving) the second movable portion 72 to the movable position (downward) with the first movable portion 70 stopped at the initial position. In this pattern, only the second drive motor 101B is driven. According to the second different operation pattern MPB2, after the first movable portion 70 is moved to the movable position while the second movable portions 71 and 72 are held at the initial position, the second movable portion 72 is moved to the movable position ( In this pattern, only the corresponding second drive motor 101B is driven so as to operate (move) downward (see FIG. 17). The third separate operation pattern MPB3 moves the first movable part 70 to the movable position while holding the second movable parts 71 and 72 at the initial position, and then moves the front second movable part 71 to the movable position ( In this pattern, only the corresponding second drive motor 101A is driven so as to operate (move) upward (see FIG. 18). The fourth separate operation pattern MPB4 is a state in which the second movable portion 72 is moved to the movable position while the first movable portion 70 is moved to the movable position while the second movable portions 71 and 72 are held at the initial position ( The corresponding second drive motor 101B is driven to operate (move) to the lower side, and then the second drive corresponding to operate (move) the front second movable part 71 to the movable position (upper side). This is a pattern for driving the motor 101A. The fifth separate operation pattern MPB5 is a state in which the first movable portion 70 is moved to the movable position while the second movable portions 71 and 72 are held at the initial positions, and the second movable portions 71 and In this pattern, both second drive motors 101A and 101B are driven so that 72 is simultaneously moved (moved) to the movable position. The form formed by the three movable parts 70, 71, 72 operated by the fourth separate operation pattern MPB4 and the fifth separate operation pattern MPB5 is the same as that operated by the third operation pattern MP3 of the embodiment. (See FIG. 14). In the third to fifth separate operation patterns MPB3 to MPB5, the second movable parts 71 and 72 moved to the movable position return to the initial position before the first movable part 70 returns from the movable position to the initial position. Thus, the corresponding second drive motors 101A and 101B are driven and controlled. Note that the number and operation contents of the different operation patterns described above are examples, and five or more operation patterns having different operation contents may be set.

  Also in the first alternative embodiment, the different operation patterns MPB1 to MPB5 executed by the movable effect device 69 have different operations so that the reliability of the big hit game (win game) after the end of the symbol variation effect is different. Appearance rates of the patterns MPB1 to MPB5 are set. In the first alternative embodiment, the big hit game is given in the order of the first separate operation pattern MPB1, the second separate operation pattern MPB2, the third separate operation pattern MPB3, the fourth separate operation pattern MPB4, and the fifth separate operation pattern MPB5. Reliability is set to be high. That is, in the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 16, the reliability of the first separate operation pattern MPB1 is “lowest”, the reliability of the second separate operation pattern MPB2 is “low”, and the reliability of the third separate operation pattern MPB3 is “Medium” is set, the reliability of the fourth separate operation pattern MPB4 is set to “high”, and the reliability of the fifth separate operation pattern MPB5 is set to “highest”.

  Regarding the reliability of each operation pattern in the first different embodiment, as in the above-described embodiment, the distribution pattern of the operation pattern lottery determination values distributed to the respective operation patterns MPB1 to MPB5 (number of distributions) ). FIG. 16 shows another operation pattern sorting lottery table TB1 when the big hit determination result is affirmative (big hit), and another operation pattern sorting lottery table TB2 when the big hit determination result is negative (out). In the separate operation pattern sorting lottery table TB1, four operation pattern lottery determination values “1” to “4” are assigned to the first separate operation pattern MPB1, and “5” to “5” to the second separate operation pattern MPB2. Eight operation pattern lottery determination values of “12” are assigned, and 12 operation pattern lottery determination values of “13” to “24” are assigned to the third operation pattern MPB3. 24 operation pattern lottery determination values “25” to “48” are allocated to MPB4, and 52 operation pattern lottery determination values “49” to “100” are allocated to fifth operation pattern MPB5. ing. On the other hand, in the different operation pattern distribution lottery table TB2, 55 operation pattern lottery determination values “1” to “55” are distributed to the first separate operation pattern MPB1, and “56” is assigned to the second separate operation pattern MPB2. ”To“ 71 ”are assigned 16 operation pattern lottery determination values, and 12 operation pattern lottery determination values“ 72 ”to“ 83 ”are assigned to the third different operation pattern MPB3. Ten operation pattern lottery determination values “84” to “93” are allocated to the operation pattern MPB4, and seven operation pattern lottery determination values “94” to “100” are allocated to the fifth separate operation pattern MPB5. It is distributed.

  As described above, regarding the distribution of the determination values for the operation pattern lottery when the result of the big hit determination is affirmative, the first separate operation pattern MPB1, the second separate operation pattern MPB2, the third separate operation pattern MPB3, and the fourth separate operation pattern. Regarding the distribution of the operation pattern lottery determination values when the result of the big hit determination is negative while increasing the number of distribution of the operation pattern lottery determination values in the order of MPB4 and the fifth separate operation pattern MPB5, the first different operation pattern By reducing the number of movement pattern lottery determination values in order of MPB1, second separate operation pattern MPB2, third separate operation pattern MPB3, fourth separate operation pattern MPB4, and fifth separate operation pattern MPB5, each individual operation The reliability to which the big hit game is given when the movable part effect based on the pattern is executed by the movable effect device 69 is different from the first one. Work pattern MPB1, second alternative operation pattern MPB2, third alternative operation pattern MPB3, fourth alternative operation pattern MPB4, are higher in the order of the fifth alternative operation pattern MPB5.

  Here, in the first alternative embodiment, the first to third different operation patterns MPB1 to MPB3 are single operation patterns for operating only one of the two second movable parts 71 and 72. Another operation pattern MPB4 is a first interlocking operation pattern in which one second movable portion 72 is operated and then the other second movable portion 71 is operated. The fifth different operation pattern MPB5 is both (multiple). ) Of the second movable parts 71 and 72 are operated simultaneously. The relationship between the single operation patterns MPB1 to MPB3, the first interlocking operation pattern MPB4, and the second interlocking operation pattern MPB5 is greater in the case of the hit determination result than in the case of the hit determination result being the outlier determination result. However, the rate at which the production control CPU 61a controls each of the second drive motors 101A and 101B in any one of the linked operation patterns MPB4 and MPB5 is higher than that in the single operation patterns MPB1 to MPB3, and the hit determination results in the determination result of the deviation. In the case of the hit determination result, the rate at which the effect control CPU 61a controls each of the second drive motors 101A and 101B in the second interlocking operation pattern MPB5 is higher than that in the case of the hit determination result. It is set as follows.

  Also in the first alternative embodiment, the moving parts 70, 71, 72 are operated according to the different operation patterns MPB1 to MPB5, so that the visual area of the display unit 17a in the display device 17 changes. When another display pattern to be displayed is set and the effect control CPU 61a determines another operation pattern, the effect control CPU 61a performs the symbol variation effect with the corresponding other display pattern via the display control CPU 62a. The display device 17 is controlled. That is, in a state where the first movable portion 70 and the rear second movable portion 72 are operated based on the second different operation pattern MPB2, as shown in FIG. In the state where the visual recognition area appears on the upper side of the movable portion 70 and the first movable portion 70 and the front second movable portion 71 are operated based on the third different operation pattern MPB3, as shown in FIG. A visual recognition area appears on the lower side of the movable part 70 and on the right side of the front second movable part 71, and effects are executed in these visual recognition areas. In FIG. 17 and FIG. 18, the visual recognition area is indicated by SPB. The visual recognition area that appears when the second movable portion 72 is operated based on the first separate operation pattern MPB1 is a state in which both the second movable portions 71 and 72 are operated based on the first operation pattern MP1. Corresponding to the first visual recognition area SP1, and the visual recognition areas that appear when the movable parts 70, 71, 72 are operated based on the fourth and fifth separate motion patterns MPB4, MPB5 are the third motion pattern MP3. Based on this, it corresponds to the third visual recognition area SP3 that appears in a state where the movable parts 70, 71, 72 are operated.

  In the first alternative embodiment, a plurality of second movable parts 71, 72 are configured to operate independently, and a plurality of second movable parts 71, 72 are operated more than a single second movable part 71, 72 operating alone. Since the expectation that the big hit game is given when the movable parts 71 and 72 of the first and second movable parts 71 and 72 are operated is increased, the interest in the operations of the first movable part 70 and the second movable parts 71 and 72 can be further increased. it can. At this time, when the plurality of second movable parts 71 and 72 operate at a time, the case where the plurality of second movable parts 71 and 72 operate at a time may increase the expectation that the big hit game is given. By doing so, interest in the operation timing of the plurality of second movable parts 71 and 72 can be increased. In addition, since each of the plurality of second movable parts 71 and 72 can be operated independently, the operation patterns that can be executed by the movable effect device 69 can be diversified, and the effect of the effect can be improved.

The second movable parts 71 and 72 are configured not to move carelessly. When the first movable unit 70 is moved from the movable position to the initial position, the rack members 82, 82 and the transmission unit 86, are driven by rotating the first drive motors 85A, 85B as in the above-described embodiment. The first movable portion 70 is stably raised under the meshing action with 86, and is held at the initial position by the engagement portion 75 a engaging with the engagement member 90.

  In the pachinko machine according to the second alternative embodiment, since the first movable part 70 is configured to move from the initial position to the movable position by its own weight, the impact when the first movable part 70 operates can be increased. . Further, since the second movable motor 71 and 72 are provided in the first movable portion 70 by operating the operating member 100 by driving the second drive motor 101, the second movable motor 71 is operated by its own weight. It is possible to prevent the second movable parts 71 and 72 from operating unintentionally by being driven by one movable part 70, and produce effects on the first movable part 70 and the second movable parts 71 and 72. A predetermined operation based on the control of the control CPU 61a can be performed. In the second alternative embodiment, the same operational effects as the above-described embodiments are exhibited as other operational effects.
