The basic variation pattern mainly defines the variation time of the symbol (the time from the start of variation to the finalized display) in the symbol display unit 6. Further, the storage means 33 is provided with a variation pattern storage area 38 storing a plurality of detailed variation patterns consisting of detailed variation display patterns of symbols and display effects using animation of characters, etc. The variation pattern is stored in association with the basic variation pattern as shown in FIG.

  Furthermore, in the memory means 33, for example, when the game ball enters the symbol starting port 19 or the tulip-type electric wheeler 17 while the symbol is variably displayed in the symbol display portion 6, the c counter accompanying the entry, A hold information storage area 36 for storing up to four acquired numerical values from the d counter and the e counter as hold information is provided. In addition, the storage means 33 can shift and store the suspension information stored in the suspension information storage area 36 one by one, and perform a jackpot determination such as whether or not the result of the jackpot lottery is a jackpot A storage area 37 for determining a big hit is provided. The suspension information is sequentially transferred to and stored in the jackpot determination storage area 37 in the order stored each time a symbol is determined and displayed, and new reservation information can be stored along with the digestion.

The basic gaming operation of the pachinko machine 1 will be briefly described below.
First, in the pachinko machine 1, when the game ball enters the symbol starting opening 19 or the tulip-type electric combination 17, the entry is detected by the main CPU 32 (the satisfaction of the predetermined condition) and the entering game ball is circulated by the circulation member 27. It is returned to the upper plate 7a. Then, the main CPU 32 acquires one numerical value each from the c counter, d counter, and e counter at the timing of entry detection, and the number of pieces of pending information stored in the pending information storage area 36 reaches the maximum value. Check if it is Then, if the number of pending information has already reached the maximum value, the acquired numerical values from the c counter, d counter, and e counter are deleted without being stored. On the other hand, if the maximum value is not reached, the acquired numerical values from the c counter, d counter and e counter are stored in the pending information storage area 36.

  Further, the main CPU 32 always checks whether the symbol is displayed variably or fixedly displayed in the symbol display portion 6, and confirms the presence or absence of the holding information when the symbol is fixedly displayed. Then, if there is the hold information, the hold information having the highest priority to be digested (here, the hold information stored earliest in time) is transferred to the jackpot determination storage area 37 and the following jackpots for the hold information Execute the judgment. That is, with reference to the jackpot determination table corresponding to the gaming state at the time of shifting the hold information to the jackpot determination storage area 37, the acquired numerical value from the c counter is a predetermined "big hit numerical value (for example, jackpot determination in normal state In the table, it is one of "0", and in the jackpot determination table of the first specific gaming state, "0", "5", "10", "15", "20", "25" , “30”, “40”, “50”, “60” (10)) (ie, whether the result of the jackpot lottery is “big hit” or not) is determined At the same time, based on the determination result relating to the "big hit", the finalized display mode of the symbol is determined based on the acquired value from the d counter. In addition, if the result of the jackpot lottery is "big hit" (the acquired value from c counter is "big hit value"), using the basic fluctuation pattern determination table shown in FIG. 16 (b), the acquired value from e counter Read out the basic fluctuation pattern corresponding to (ie, determine the basic fluctuation pattern including the fluctuation time of the pattern). On the other hand, if the result of the jackpot lottery is "out" (the value acquired from the c counter is a value other than "big hit"), using the basic variation pattern determination table shown in FIG. Read out the basic fluctuation pattern corresponding to the acquired numerical value of (ie, determine the basic fluctuation pattern including the fluctuation time of the symbol).

  Thereafter, the detailed variation pattern corresponding to the basic variation pattern is read out, and variation of the symbol is started in the symbol display unit 6, and the symbol is variably displayed in the symbol display unit 6 in accordance with the detailed variation pattern read while counting by the timer 34. And display effects using characters. Then, when the fluctuation time of the symbol according to the read basic fluctuation pattern elapses, the symbol display section 6 displays the symbol in the final display mode based on the acquired value from the d counter based on the result of the big hit lottery Let In addition, about the symbol to be displayed in a definite display, for example, when the result of the jackpot lottery is "big hit", a jackpot symbol display mode in which three identical symbols are arranged (this is a special finalized display mode, for example, "7 · 7 · 7 Confirm display with "or" 3 ・ 3 ・ 3 ". On the other hand, if the result of the jackpot lottery is "off", at least one symbol out of the three symbols displayed side by side is different from the other two symbols. Confirm with 1 · 2.3 ·)).

  Furthermore, the main CPU 32 operates the card ejection unit 91 after the finalized display in the special finalized display mode of the above-mentioned symbol, if the result of the large hit lottery is "big hit", and any one of the game cards 60a to 60c. Discharge the game cards (for example, game card 60a) to the front side of the front plate 85 through the discharge slit 92, and turn on the discharge notification LEDs 93, 93,... Until the game card 60a is removed by the player, The player is notified that the game card 60a has been discharged.

Further, the main CPU 32 causes a first special game state in which the special movable device 18 is opened for a predetermined first special time (for example, 30 seconds) together with the discharge of the game cards 60a to 60c. Then, when the entry of a predetermined number (for example, nine) or more of game balls into the opened special movable device 18 is detected, a predetermined second special time (for example, 30 seconds) is covered after the end of the first special game state. A second special game state is generated which repeats opening of the special movable device 18 twice. Then, when the second special game state ends, the main CPU 32 ends the second special game state, and the result of the big hit lottery in the big hit determination is "big hit", or the symbol is the first specified number of times ( For example, the first specific gaming state in which the probability that the jackpot lottery result will be "big hit" is improved as described above is generated until any condition of the 5) finalized display is satisfied. In addition, after the second special game state ends, either the result of the jackpot lottery in the jackpot determination will be "big hit", or the symbol is displayed for a second specified number of times (for example 35 times) Until the condition is satisfied, the tulip-type electric character 17 is likely to be in the open state, and the tulip-type electric character 17 is brought into the second specific gaming state in which it is open for a long time.
On the other hand, if a predetermined number or more of game balls do not enter into the opened special movable device 18 despite the occurrence of the first special game state, the second special game state is set after the end of the first special game state. The normal state is established without causing the first specific gaming state or the second specific gaming state to occur either.

  In the main CPU 32, the first specific gaming state is ended and only the second specific gaming state occurs, when the final display number of symbols reaches the first specific number of times without the result of the large winning lottery becoming a "big hit" The condition is In addition, when the final display number of the symbol reaches the second specified number of times without the result of the jackpot lottery becoming a "big hit", the second specific gaming state is also terminated, and the normal state (that is, the jackpot lottery result is " The probability of becoming a "big hit" is relatively low, and the tulip electric accessory 17 is in a state in which it is difficult to open. Furthermore, the game ball which has entered the opened special movable device 18 is returned to the inside of the upper tray 7a by the circulation member 27, as in the case of entering the symbol start opening 19 or the tulip type electric power unit 17.

  The main CPU 32 also controls the opening and closing operation of the tulip-type electric combination 17, and when the gaming ball passes the gate member 20, the passage is detected by the main CPU 32. Then, the main CPU 32 acquires one numerical value from the a counter at the timing of passage detection (performs an open lottery), and the acquired numerical value from the a counter is a predetermined “open numerical value (for example, the second specified gaming state occurs If so, it is determined whether or not there are ten ways "0" to "9", and if the second specific gaming state does not occur, "one way is only" 0 "). Then, when the acquired numerical value from the a counter is "open numerical value", that is, the result of the open lottery is "winning", the tulip-type electric power steering unit 17 is operated from the closed state to the open state in a predetermined mode. At this time, if the second specific gaming state is occurring, for example, it is intermittently repeated three times to be open for a long time (two seconds) as compared to the case where the second specific gaming state is not occurring. The tulip-type electric accessory 17 is operated in the special opening operation mode such as the mode. In addition, if the second specific gaming state has not occurred, for example, it will be open only once for a short time (0.2 seconds) as compared to the case where the second specific gaming state has occurred, etc. The tulip type motorized accessory 17 is operated in the normal opening operation mode. On the other hand, when the acquired numerical value from the a counter is not the "open numerical value", that is, the result of the open lottery is "disappear", the tulip-type electric character 17 is not operated in the closed state. Also, when the gaming ball passes through the gate member 20 during operation of the tulip-type electric character 17, etc., the storage means 33 stores up to a predetermined number of the values of the a counter acquired at the timing of the passage, as in the above hold information. At the same time, the confirmation of the result of the open lottery, etc. is executed in the order stored each time the operation of the tulip-type motorized prize 17 is finished.

  Here, the gaming cards 60a to 60c ejected by the card ejection unit 91 with the occurrence of the first special gaming state will be described. The game card 60a is formed in a rectangular shape elongated in the front-rear direction, and a common decoration portion 61 having a predetermined width in the front-rear direction is provided at the front end portion. In addition, a common decorative portion 61 having the same front-rear width as the front end is also provided at the rear end of the game card 60a. And between the common decoration parts 61 and 61, it becomes the identification decoration part 62a which can identify that it is the game card 60a, The memo part 63 which can write characters etc. is provided in the identification decoration part 62a. ing.

  Further, the gaming card 60b is a rectangular card body formed into the same size as the gaming card 60a, and the same common decorative portion 61, 61 as the gaming card 60a is provided at the front end and the rear end. And between the common decoration parts 61, 61, it can be identified that it is the game card 60b, and it is an identification decoration part 62b different from the identification decoration part 62a. Further, as with the game card 60a, the identification decoration portion 62b is also provided with a memo portion 63.

Furthermore, the gaming card 60c is a rectangular card body molded to the same size as the gaming cards 60a and 60b, and the front end and the rear end are provided with the same common decorative portions 61 and 61 as the gaming cards 60a and 60b. It is done. And, it is possible to identify that it is the game card 60c between the common decoration parts 61, 61, and is an identification decoration part 62c different from the identification decoration parts 62a, 62b. Further, the identification decoration portion 62c is also provided with a memo portion 63 like the game cards 60a and 60b.
All the game cards 60a to 60c have the same decoration on both front and back (that is, the common decoration portion 61, the identification decoration portions 62a, 62b, 62c, and the memo portion 63 are provided).

  Then, the card ejection unit 91 ejects the game cards 60a to 60c so that only the common decorative portion 61 on either the front side or the back side of each of the game cards 60a to 60c is exposed on the front surface of the front plate 85. Therefore, it is impossible for the player to check which of the gaming cards 60a to 60c has been ejected unless the ejected gaming card is removed.

  Also, the gaming ball 65 used in the pachinko machine 1 will be described. The game ball 65 has the same diameter (11 mm) as the game ball used in a normal pachinko machine, and a 0.3 mm thick synthetic resin layer 67 is provided on the surface of a metal ball 66 having a diameter of 10.4 mm. Become. And as synthetic resin which forms the synthetic resin layer 67, what added the fluorine to ionomer resin (Mitsui-Du Pont Polychemical's brand name "HIMIRAN 1605") is used, and the collision sound to a game nail etc. is used. In addition to the reduction of the above, the addition of fluorine is intended to reduce the frictional resistance of the surface of the gaming ball 65 and thus prevent the clogging of the ball.

  Then, to explain the game played by the player on the pachinko machine 1 along the general flow, the player will start the game from the normal state, and the handle 9 is turned to operate the launcher 10 The game ball is driven into the game area 16 through the launch passage 13 and the entry of the game ball into the symbol starting opening 19 is first aimed. Then, the result of the jackpot lottery by the gaming ball that has entered the symbol starting port 19 becomes "big hit", and when the first special game state occurs, it is discharged in a state where only the common decorative portion 61 is exposed from the slit 92 for discharge To check which game card of the game cards 60a to 60c has been discharged, and what content is described in the memo portion 63, etc., and the special movable card is opened. Aim for a predetermined number or more of game balls to enter the device 18. In addition, when the second special game state occurs after the end of the first special game state, the game ball is aimed to enter the special movable device 18 which is open again. Furthermore, after the end of the second special gaming state, while the second specific gaming state is occurring, the passage of the gaming ball to the gate member 20, and the tulip that is in the open state frequently in the second specific gaming state Aim for the entry of the game ball into the electric motor-operated part 17. Then, when the final display number of symbols reaches the second specified number of times without the result of the jackpot lottery becoming a "big hit", the second specific gaming state ends and it shifts to the normal state, so symbol start opening 19 again Return to the game aiming to enter the game ball to In addition, it is a circulation member not only about the game starting ball 19 which entered into the symbol starting opening 19, the tulip type electric character 17, and the special movable device 18, but also the game ball discharged from the discharge port 22 without entering any member. 27 is returned into the upper plate 7a.

(Effect of pachinko machine with support base of this embodiment)
According to the pachinko machine with a support having the configuration as described above, since the support 70 is formed by assembling the carriage 71 with the casters 78, 78,... And the frame body 72, In the state of being divided into the frame body 72, they can be separately stored, transported, etc. Therefore, the work concerning storage and transportation of the support stand 70 can be made easy, and introduction to a care facility etc. becomes easy.

  Further, along the front end edge of the bottom plate 73 of the carriage 70, a notch portion 77 recessed rearward is widely formed in the left and right direction, and the notch portion 77, the side plates 74 and 74, and the ceiling are provided on the front side of the carriage 70. A space surrounded by the plate 76, that is, a space opened forward and downward is provided. Therefore, even a player using a wheelchair can easily play the game near the pachinko machine 1 simply by putting the wheelchair or foot into the space formed by the notches 77 and the like from the front side of the dolly 70. Can.

  Furthermore, when the pachinko machine 1 is installed on the top plate 76 of the carriage 71, the pachinko machine 1 is positioned above the reinforcing plate 75, and the reinforcing plate 75 supports the installation position of the pachinko machine 1 on the top plate 76 from below. It is supposed to be reinforced in such a way. Therefore, a crack, a crack, etc. do not produce easily in the top plate 76 of the trolley | bogie 71, and strength improvement of the support stand 70 can be aimed at.

  Furthermore, since the space formed by the notches 77 and the like communicates with the space S1 on the bottom plate 73 and extends to the rear side, the player extends the foot to the rear side of the reinforcing plate 75 and inserts it. It is possible for the player to play with a very easy attitude. In addition, since the left and right outer portions of the notch portion 77 in the bottom plate 73 are largely protruded forward to substantially the same extent as the front end portion of the top plate 76, the player puts weight on the front end of the top plate 76. Even if so, the carriage 71 does not fall forward, and safety can be improved.

  Furthermore, connection holes 86 are provided in the left and right side plates 81a and 81b of the frame body 72, respectively. Therefore, when introducing to a care facility etc., the supports 70 can be arranged side by side in a connected state by using, for example, a connector and the like consisting of bolts and nuts. Can stabilize the installation state of

  In addition, the angle adjustment plate 87 whose front surface is a predetermined tapered surface is attached to the inner surface of the side plate 81a of the frame body 72, and in installing the pachinko machine 1, the machine frame 3 of the pachinko machine 1 The installation angle of the pachinko machine 1 can be set to a predetermined installation angle simply by bringing it into contact with the front surface 87. Therefore, the pachinko machine 1 can be easily installed at a suitable installation angle, even if the person is not experienced in the installation work. Furthermore, fixing bolts 88, 88 that can be screwed downward to the top plate 82 of the frame body 72 are provided, and by screwing the fixing bolts 88, 88 onto the upper surface of the machine frame 3 of the pachinko machine 1, the pachinko machine 1 is framed. The body 72 can be fixed. Therefore, the installation work of the pachinko machine 1 can be further simplified.

  Further, the back plate 80 is assembled so as to cover the space S2 between the side plates 81a and 81b in which the pachinko machine 1 is installed from behind, and at a position including the back of the circulation member 27 on the front of the back plate 80, The sound absorbing material 55 is attached. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the noise emitted by the gaming balls falling onto the circulation member 27 or rolling on the circulation member 27.

  Further, when the back plate 80 is assembled, a gap S3 for communicating the space S2 with the outside between the lower end of the back plate 80 and the top plate 76 of the carriage 71 is the rear end of the top plate 82 of the frame body 72. A gap S4 is formed between the space S2 and the outside between the front surface of the upper portion of the back plate 80 and the space S2. Therefore, an air flow from the gap S3 to the gap S4 is generated in the space S2 by the heat generated from the control device 30 and the like. Therefore, it is difficult for heat to build up on the rear side of the pachinko machine 1, and heat does not build up in the space S2 and adversely affect the control device 30 or the like.

  Furthermore, the upper plate cover 8 attached so as to cover the upper plate 7a is provided with a restriction portion having an insertion hole 62 through which the operation portion of the ball release lever 11 can be inserted. Then, when the upper disc cover 8 is attached, the opening edge of the insertion hole 62 abuts on the outer peripheral surface of the operation portion of the ball release lever 11 by inserting the operation portion of the ball release lever 11 into the insertion hole 62. The 11 operations are disabled. Therefore, even if a pachinko machine with a support is configured using a conventional well-known pachinko machine having the ball release lever 11 etc., the player erroneously operates the ball release lever 11 and the gaming ball in the upper plate is lowered. There is no risk of the ball being pulled out to the plate 12. In addition, since the operation of ball release lever 11 can be disabled only by attaching upper dish cover 8, the troublesome work of releasing linkage between ball release lever 11 and ball release mechanism or removing ball release lever 11 The pachinko machine with a support can be manufactured inexpensively.

  Furthermore, on the rear face of the game board 2, a dish shape which is recessed downward at a position lower than all the entry means and the discharge port 22 and a communication port to the upper plate 7a at the left end (as viewed from the front) And a circulating member 27 having a receiving portion with an inclined surface in which the bottom surface is inclined downward toward the communication port, and the symbol start port 19, the tulip type electric part 17, the special movable device After receiving the game ball which entered 18 and the game ball which is discharged from the discharge port 22 without entering any members, it can be returned to the upper tray 7a by flowing down on the game ball collection passage 27b And Therefore, compared with the conventional pachinko machine in which the gaming ball is circulated by the lift means etc., the structure relating to the circulation of the gaming ball is greatly simplified, and the pachinko machine with the support can be miniaturized. , The manufacturing cost can be reduced. In addition, since no additional power is required to circulate the gaming balls as in a conventional pachinko machine, the operating cost can be reduced.

  In addition, since the circulation member 27 is installed utilizing the space between the power supply device 29 and the control device 30 in the vertical direction, it is possible to easily retrofit the circulation member 27 to a conventionally known non-circulation type pachinko machine. Can. Therefore, it is possible to further reduce the manufacturing cost, for example, since it is possible to use the pachinko machine which is not a circulating type conventionally well-known as a gaming machine main body (pachinko machine 1) in a pachinko machine with a support. In addition, since the circulation member 27 which is a circulation means is formed of a fluorine-containing polycarbonate, there is an effect that dirt does not easily adhere when the game ball continues circulating in the machine base and troubles such as ball clogging hardly occur. .

  On the other hand, in the pachinko machine 1, when the result of the so-called big hit lottery becomes "big hit", and the special symbol is finalized and displayed in the special finalized display mode, the card ejection unit 91 operates, and any of the gaming cards 60a to 60c. One game card is ejected. Therefore, it is possible to provide a game different from the conventional general game machine which has caused a jackpot state capable of paying out a large number of prize balls.

  In addition, since all game balls that have entered the symbol start port 19, tulip type electric character 17, special movable device 18 and outlet 22 are returned to the supply tray 7, the game can be continued with a small number of game balls. In addition to being able to operate a motor or the like to circulate a gaming ball, a conventional general gaming ball circulating device is not required, so it is suitably introduced to a nursing home without equipment for circulating a gaming ball or the like. be able to.

Further, all game cards 60a to 60c have the same size, and the same common decorative portion 61, 61 is provided at the front end and the rear end of each game card 60a to 60c, and only between the common decorative portions 61, 61 respectively. Different identification decoration parts 62a to 62c are used. Then, when the game cards 60a to 60c are discharged, only the common decorative portion 61 is discharged in the state of being exposed on the front. Therefore, the pachinko machine 1 is rich in gaming characteristics such that it can not be checked which of the gaming cards 60a to 60c has been ejected, as long as the player does not take out the ejected gaming cards. Can. In addition, when refilling the game cards 60a to 60c into the ejection device 95, there is no need to worry about the front-back direction or the front and back of the game cards 60a to 60c, and the refilling operation can be easily performed.
Furthermore, since the memo portion 63 is provided in each of the gaming cards 60a to 60c, the values can be made different even in the same gaming cards 60a by making the characters etc. written in the memo portion 63 different. An entertaining game can be provided.

  Furthermore, the discharge notification LEDs 93, 93,... Are provided in the card discharge unit 91, and when the game cards 60a to 60c are discharged, the discharge notification LED 93 continues until the discharged game cards 60a to 60c are taken out by the player. 93 · · · lights up. Therefore, even a player who is poor in gaming experience can easily know that the gaming cards 60a to 60c have been discharged.

  In addition, since a game ball 65 provided with a synthetic resin layer 67 made of an ionomer resin having a thickness of 0.3 mm added to the surface of a metal ball 66 having a diameter of 10.4 mm is used, the game nail In addition to reducing collision noise, etc., the frictional resistance of the surface of the gaming ball 65 can be reduced, and clogging of the gaming area 16 can be prevented.
