A central hole (not shown) formed in a circular shape and directed substantially in the front-rear direction is provided at a central portion of the support body 59. Hereinafter, the axis of the central hole of the support 59 is referred to as “axis A”.

  The rotating member 51 is a substantially circular plate-like member when viewed from the front. A central hole (not shown) formed in a circular shape around the axis A is formed in the center of the rotating member 51. The center hole of the rotating member 51 faces the center hole of the decorative body 55 from the front. On the front surface 51A of the rotating member 51, a rectangular recess 51B extending linearly across the center hole is formed. As will be described in detail later, the rotating member 51 is rotatable about the axis A. The shape of the front portion of the rotating member 51 is such that when rotated 180 ° about the axis A, there is no change in the appearance in front view before and after rotation. That is, the shape of the front part of the rotating member 51 is substantially point-symmetric with respect to the axis A in a front view. The swing member 52 is a plate-shaped member, and is a member arranged in the front-rear direction with the rotating member 51.

The vertical drive mechanism 40 is a mechanism for moving the decorative body 55 up and down. The support mechanism 150 is a mechanism that supports the decorative body 55 so as to be swingable about an axis B (see FIG. 5) described later. The swing support mechanism 200 is a mechanism that swingably supports the swing member 52 of the decorative body 55 about an axis E (see FIG. 10) described later extending in the left-right direction. The rotation support mechanism 300 is a mechanism that rotatably supports the rotation member 51 of the decorative body 55 about the axis A. Hereinafter, the configurations of the above four mechanisms included in the effect device 30 will be sequentially described in detail.

<2-1. Vertical drive mechanism 40>
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the vertical drive mechanism 40 includes a support member 60, a support shaft 72, an arm member 70, a motor 62, a rotating member 81, a fixed member 90 (see FIG. 3), and a moving member 110 (see FIG. 3). 3). In FIG. 4, illustration of the moving member 110 is omitted.

  The support member 60 is a plate-like member having a substantially rectangular shape as viewed from the front, which is long in the left-right direction, and is fixed on the rear side below the decorative frame 14 (see FIG. 2). The support shaft 72 extends forward from the left end of the support member 60. The support shaft 72 rotatably supports the arm member 70. The arm member 70 extends rightward from the support shaft 72 along a direction orthogonal to the front-rear direction. The motor 62 is provided at a lower left portion of the support member 60. The motor 62 rotates the arm member 70 about the support shaft 72 by rotationally driving.

  An opening 76 is provided at the right end 75 of the arm member 70 in the direction away from the support shaft 72. The opening 76 is a long hole that is long in the longitudinal direction of the arm member 70 and penetrates the right end 75 in the front-rear direction.

  The rotating member 81 is attached to the opening 76. The rotating member 81 is a substantially circular member when viewed from the front. The rotating member 81 is relatively movable in the longitudinal direction of the opening 76 with respect to the right end 75, and is rotatable about an axis (not shown) extending in the front-rear direction. On the outer peripheral surface of the rotating member 81, a meshing portion 81A, which is a tooth portion extending in the circumferential direction, is formed.

  The fixing member 90 (see FIG. 3) is fixed to a portion of the front surface of the support member 60 behind the right end 75 of the arm member 70. The fixing member 90 has a tooth portion 92. The tooth portion 92 is erected forward from the support member 60 and extends linearly in the vertical direction. The tooth portion 92 meshes with the meshing portion 81A of the rotating member 81 from the left side. Therefore, when the arm member 70 rotates around the support shaft 72, the rotating member 81 can rotate while moving upward along the tooth portion 92. Hereinafter, the lower end position of the movable range of the rotating member 81 is simply referred to as “lower position” (see FIGS. 3 and 4), and the upper end position of the movable range of the rotating member 81 is simply referred to as “upper position” (see FIG. 14). When the arm member 70 is at the first rotation position, which is a rotation position extending obliquely downward to the right from the support shaft 72 (see FIG. 3), the rotation member 81 is at the lower end position.

  The moving member 110 (see FIG. 3) is a substantially rectangular plate-like body provided on the right side of the rotating member 81 when viewed from the front. The moving member 110 is attached via a slide rail 105 to the right front portion of the support member 60. More specifically, the fixed rail 105A of the slide rail 105 is fixed to the front surface of the support member 60, and the movable rail 105B (see FIG. 4) of the slide rail 105 is fixed to the rear surface of the moving member 110. The movable rail 105B is attached to the fixed rail 105A via a plurality of non-illustrated rolling members (spherical members in this example) arranged in a vertical direction. Therefore, the moving member 110 is supported by the support member 60 so as to be able to linearly move in the up-down direction. At the upper end of the moving member 110, a decorative body 55 is provided. That is, the decorative body 55 can move up and down together with the moving member 110. Hereinafter, the lower end positions of the movable ranges of the moving member 110 and the decoration 55 are simply referred to as “lower positions” (see FIG. 3), and the upper ends of the movable ranges of the moving member 110 and the decoration 55 are simply referred to as “upper ends”. Position ”(see FIGS. 9 and 10).

  A tooth 112 is formed at the left end of the moving member 110. The tooth portion 112 extends linearly in the vertical direction, and meshes with the meshing portion 81A of the rotating member 81 from the right side. Since the tooth portion 112 meshes with the meshing portion 81A, the moving member 110 can move up and down as the rotating member 81 rotates and moves up and down. When the rotating member 81 is at the lower end position, the moving member 110 and the decorative body 55 are both at the lower end position. In this case, the upper end of the decorative body 55 overlaps the lower end of the display surface 27 in a front view (see FIG. 2).

  As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a claw 113 (see FIG. 3) is provided on the right side of the lower end of the moving member 110. A claw 63 (see FIG. 4) is provided at a position above the claw 113 in the upper end of the support member 60. An elastic member 101 (see FIG. 3) is attached to the claws 63 and 113. The elastic member 101 of this example is a tension spring that can be elastically deformed in the vertical direction. The elastic member 101 urges the moving member 110 upward.

  A through hole 114 (see FIG. 3) is formed in the upper right portion of the moving member 110. The through hole 114 has a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from the front, and penetrates the moving member 110 in the front-rear direction. A rail member 118 (see FIG. 4) is provided behind the through hole 114. The rail member 118 of the present example is formed integrally with the front surface of the support member 60. The rail member 118 extends in a vertical direction from a substantially central portion in the vertical direction of the support member 60 to an upper end of the support member 60. On the front surface of the rail member 118, a plane 118A extending vertically (see FIG. 4) and an inclined surface 118B extending obliquely rearward from the upper end of the plane 118A are formed (see FIG. 4).

  The outline of the operation of moving the decorative body 55 up and down by the up-down drive mechanism 40 having the above configuration is as follows. When the motor 62 is driven to rotate, the arm member 70 located at the first rotation position rotates counterclockwise (in the direction of arrow P in FIG. 3) about the support shaft 72 as viewed from the front. As the arm member 70 rotates, the inner wall surface of the opening 76 urges the rotating member 81 upward and moves relatively to the rotating member 81 in the longitudinal direction of the arm member 70. Accordingly, the rotating member 81 linearly moves upward while rotating counterclockwise (in the direction of arrow Q in FIG. 3) in a front view around an axis (not shown) extending in the front-rear direction.

  As the rotating member 81 rotates while moving linearly, the moving member 110 and the decorative body 55 move upward from the lower end position. In this case, since the elastic member 101 (see FIG. 3) urges the moving member 110 upward, the load applied to the motor 62 that is driven to rotate is reduced. In addition, as the rotating member 81 rotates while moving linearly, the moving member 110 and the decorative body 55 linearly move upward. The respective linear movement amounts of the moving member 110 and the decorative body 55 are the sum of the linear movement amount of the rotating member 81 and the rotational movement amount of the rotating member 81. Therefore, the respective linear movement amounts of the moving member 110 and the decorative body 55 increase.

<2-2. Support mechanism 150>
The support mechanism 150 is provided above the moving member 110 (see FIG. 3). As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the support mechanism 150 includes a mounting member 120, a shaft member 128, a connecting member 130, and an urging member 127 (see FIG. 5).

  The attachment member 120 is a member attached to an upper portion of the front surface of the moving member 110 (see FIG. 3). The mounting member 120 includes a wall 122 and two outer walls 124. The wall 122 has a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from the rear, and is provided with two fastening holes 122A.

Two screws (not shown) are respectively inserted through the insertion holes of the moving member 110 from behind, and fastened to the fastening holes 122A. Thereby, the mounting member 120 is mounted on the upper part of the front surface of the moving member 110. The two outer wall portions 124 are wall portions that stand forward from both left and right ends of the wall portion 122, respectively. The two outer wall portions 124 face each other at an interval in the left-right direction. A support hole is provided in each of the two outer wall portions 124.

  The shaft member 128 extends in the left-right direction. The left and right ends of the shaft member 128 are fitted into the support holes of the two outer wall portions 124, respectively. Thus, the shaft member 128 is fixed to the two outer wall portions 124.

  The connecting member 130 includes inner wall portions 131 and 133 and a fixed wall portion 134 (see FIG. 5). The inner wall portions 131 and 133 are provided between the two outer wall portions 124. The inner wall portions 131 and 133 are arranged at intervals from the left side in the left-right direction. The rear portions of the inner wall portions 131 and 133 respectively face the wall portion 122 of the mounting member 120 from the front. A circular hole (not shown) into which the shaft member 128 is inserted is provided at a substantially central portion of the inner wall portions 131 and 133 in the front-rear direction. The inner diameter of the circular hole is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the shaft member 128. Thereby, the connecting member 130 is swingably supported by the shaft member 128. The connecting member 130 can swing about an axis B which is the axis of the shaft member 128.

  The fixed wall portion 134 is a substantially rectangular wall portion in a rear view, connecting the front end portions of the inner wall portions 131 and 133 to each other. The upper end of the fixed wall portion 134 is located above the shaft member 128, and the lower end of the fixed wall portion 134 is located below the shaft member 128. The fixed wall portion 134 is provided with two insertion holes (not shown) arranged in the left-right direction. The two insertion holes of the fixed wall portion 134 respectively oppose two fastening holes (not shown) provided at the lower portion of the support body 59. Two screws (not shown) are respectively inserted through the insertion holes of the fixed wall portion 134 from behind, and fastened to the fastening holes of the support body 59. Thus, the support body 59 is fixed to the fixed wall portion 134 on the front side of the shaft member 128 and can swing about the axis B integrally with the connecting member 130. That is, the decorative body 55 can swing about the axis B.

  The extension wall 135 extends in the front-rear direction from the lower end of the inner wall 133 to the inside of the through hole 114 (see FIG. 3) of the moving member 110. That is, the extension wall 135 includes a portion extending in the front-rear direction between the through hole 114 and the fixed wall 134. A cylindrical portion 135A (see FIG. 6) is formed at the rear end of the extension wall portion 135. The cylindrical portion 135A extends rearward from the extending wall portion 135 behind the through hole 114. The cylindrical portion 135A is positioned obliquely rearward and lower than the shaft member 128.

  The roller 94 that is exposed rearward from the through hole 114 is provided in the cylindrical portion 135A. The roller 94 is a disk-shaped rotating body (rolling member) having a hole (not shown) formed in the center. By inserting the cylindrical portion 135A into the hole of the roller 94, the roller 94 is rotatably supported by the cylindrical portion 135A. A fastening member 97 is fastened to a cylindrical hole (not shown) of the cylindrical portion 135A. The fastening member 97 of this example is a flathead screw. The roller 94 is disposed between the head formed at the left end of the fastening member 97 and the rear end of the extension wall 135 to restrict the movement in the left-right direction. Therefore, the roller 94 can be assembled to the extension wall 135 with a simple configuration.

  The urging member 127 (see FIG. 5) is a coil spring in this example. The biasing member 127 is arranged in a compressed state between the upper end of the fixed wall 134 and the upper end of the wall 122. The urging member 127 is located above the shaft member 128. That is, the urging member 127 is located on the opposite side of the shaft member 128 from the roller 94 in the vertical direction. The urging member 127 urges the fixed wall portion 134 forward. Thus, the decorative body 55 is urged counterclockwise around the axis B in the right side view.

  The swing range around the axis B of the decorative body 55 supported by the support mechanism 150 having the above configuration is as follows. The decorative body 55 can swing between a first specific swing position (see FIGS. 3, 11, 13 and the like) and a second specific swing position (see FIGS. 15 and 16 and the like). The first specific swing position is a swing position of the decorative body 55 where the roller 94 contacts the plane 118A of the rail member 118. In other words, the decorative body 55 urged by the urging member 127 is regulated from swinging counterclockwise when viewed from the right side by the roller 94 abutting on the plane 118A. When the decorative body 55 is at the first specific swing position, the lower rear portions of the inner wall portions 131 and 133 (see FIG. 6) are separated from the wall portion 122 (see FIG. 6) in a forward direction.

  The second specific swing position is a swing position of the decorative body 55 in which the lower rear portions of the inner side walls 131 and 133 abut on the wall 122. That is, the decorative body 55 urged by the urging member 127 is prevented from swinging counterclockwise when viewed from the right side by the inner wall portions 131 and 133 abutting against the wall portion 122.

  When the decorative body 55 is at the first specific swing position, the rear end of the roller 94 is located at substantially the same position as the lower end of the inclined surface 118B in the front-rear direction (see FIG. 15). When the decorative body 55 is at the second specific swing position, the rear end of the roller 94 is located at substantially the same position as the upper end of the inclined surface 118B in the front-rear direction (see FIG. 15). Accordingly, the decoration body 55 swings between the first specific swing position and the second specific swing position by the roller 94 rolling along the inclined surface 118B with the vertical movement of the decoration body 55. .

  In this example, the decorative body 55 swings from the first specific swing position to the second specific swing position, so that the decorative body 55 swings about 16 ° about the axis B, and the vertical direction of the decorative body 55 Becomes longer. The dimension L1 shown in FIG. 11 indicates the vertical length of the decorative body 55 at the first specific swing position, and the dimension L2 shown in FIG. 15 is the vertical direction of the decorative body 55 at the second specific swing position. Indicates the length of That is, the dimension L2 is longer than the dimension L1.

That is, the swing support mechanism 200 is provided on the opposite side of the swing member 52 from the direction in which the front surface 52A faces. The swing support mechanism 200 includes a power transmission unit 270 and a support unit 240. The power transmission unit 270 transmits the driving force of the decorative body motor 202 provided on the upper left of the rear surface of the support body 59 to the swing member 52 (see FIG. 3). A motor gear 202A is fixed to a drive shaft (not shown) of the decorative body motor 202. The support portion 240 supports the swinging member 52 so as to be swingable about an axis E described later extending in the left-right direction.

<2-3-1. Power transmission unit 270>
The configuration of the power transmission unit 270 will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 7 shows a perspective view of the power transmission unit 270 in which a cam member 280 described later is removed from the support shaft 59A. As shown in FIG. 7, the power transmission unit 270 includes a connection gear 271, an intermediate gear 273, a drive gear 275, two small gears 277, and a cam member 280.

  The connection gear 271 is a gear connected to the motor gear 202A of the decorative body motor 202. The intermediate gear 273 is a gear connected to the connection gear 271 and is rotatable about the axis A. On the outer peripheral surface of the intermediate gear 273, a tooth portion 273A extending in the rotation direction is formed. The teeth 273A mesh with the connection gear 271. A circular hole 273B (see FIG. 10) is formed in the center of the intermediate gear 273. The circular hole 273B has a circular shape with the axis A as the center, and faces substantially in the front-rear direction. The circular hole 273B faces the above-described central hole (not shown) of the support body 59 from behind. Hereinafter, a clockwise direction in rear view around the axis A is referred to as a first rotation direction, and a direction opposite to the first rotation direction is referred to as a second rotation direction. The first rotation direction is a direction in which the arrow M1 in FIG. 7 points. The second rotation direction is a direction in which the arrow M2 in FIG. 7 points.

  The drive gear 275 is rotatably supported by a support shaft 59A that projects rearward from a portion of the support body 59 that is obliquely above and to the left of the intermediate gear 273. The drive gear 275 is rotatable about an axis C that is the axis of the support shaft 59A. The axis C extends substantially in the front-back direction. Hereinafter, the counterclockwise direction in the rear view around the axis C is referred to as “first direction”, the direction opposite to the first direction is referred to as “second direction”, and the first direction and second direction are collectively referred to. In this case, it is referred to as “drive gear rotation direction”. The first direction is a direction to which the arrow A1 shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 points. The second direction is a direction in which an arrow A2 shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 points.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the drive gear 275 includes a front wall portion 275A, a tooth portion 275B, two inner wall portions 275C, two first extension portions 275D, two second extension portions 275E, and two protrusions. A part 275F is provided. The front wall 275A forms a front end of the drive gear 275. An insertion hole 275G through which the support shaft 59A is inserted is formed at the center of the front wall portion 275A. The tooth portion 275B stands upright from the peripheral end of the front wall portion 275A, and extends in the rotation direction of the drive gear. The teeth 275B mesh with the teeth 273A of the intermediate gear 273 (see FIG. 7). Therefore, the driving gear 275 transmits the rotational driving force of the decorative body motor 202 from the intermediate gear 273. In this example, the tooth portion 275B and the tooth portion 273A have the same number of teeth. That is, the outer diameter of the drive gear 275 is the same as the outer diameter of the intermediate gear 273. The two inner wall portions 275C are wall portions that stand rearward from a portion between the tooth portion 275B and the insertion hole 275G in the front wall portion 275A. The two inner wall portions 275C extend along the driving gear rotation direction. The two inner wall portions 275C face each other across the insertion hole 275G.

  The two first extension portions 275D are wall portions extending substantially linearly from the ends in the second direction of the two inner wall portions 275C to the tooth portion 275B. On the other hand, the two second extending portions 275E are wall portions extending substantially linearly from the ends in the first direction of the two inner wall portions 275C to the tooth portion 275B. In this example, the two first extension portions 275D and the two second extension portions 275E are both connected to the front wall portion 275A. The two protrusions 275F protrude in the first direction from the ends of the second extension 275E on the side approaching the axis C, respectively.

  In addition, the first extending portion 275D provided on one of the two inner wall portions 275C is connected to the second extending portion 275E provided on the other of the two inner wall portions 275C along the driving gear rotation direction. They face each other with a gap 276 interposed therebetween. That is, two gaps 276 are formed inside the drive gear 275.

  The two small gears 277 are arranged in the two gaps 276, respectively. The two small gears 277 are rotatable about an axis D, which is an axis extending substantially in the front-rear direction, and are rotatable about an axis C. The axis D is displaced with the rotation of the small gear 277 about the axis C. The outer diameter of the small gear 277 is smaller than the shortest distance from the tip of the projection 275F to the first extension 275D in the first direction. On the outer peripheral surface of the small gear 277, a tooth portion 277A is formed in the circumferential direction. Of the teeth forming the tooth portion 277A, the protruding portion 275F can enter between two adjacent teeth along the circumferential direction. As a result, the protruding portion 275F bites into the tooth portion 277A, and the rotation of the small gear 277 about the axis D can be restricted.

  A housing 299 is formed inside the drive gear 275. The accommodation section 299 is a space surrounded by the front wall section 275A and the two inner wall sections 275C.

  As shown in FIG. 9, the cam member 280 has a substantially cylindrical shape extending along the axis C, and is rotatably supported by a support shaft 59A (see FIG. 7). The axis serving as the rotation center of the cam member 280 coincides with the axis serving as the rotation center of the drive gear 275. On the outer peripheral surface of the front part of the cam member 280, a tooth part 281 is formed in the circumferential direction (that is, the driving gear rotation direction). The tooth portion 281 is housed in the housing portion 299 and meshes with each tooth portion 277A of the two small gears 277 (see FIG. 8).

  A flange 282 is formed in the circumferential direction at the center of the outer peripheral surface of the cam member 280 substantially in the front-rear direction. The flange portion 282 faces the two small gears 277 from behind (see FIG. 7). That is, the flange portion 282 regulates the rearward displacement of the two small gears 277.

  Two cam surfaces 285 are formed on the rear end surface of the cam member 280. The two cam surfaces 285 are arranged along the rotation direction of the drive gear, and form an annular shape in rear view. That is, of the two cam surfaces 285, one end of the one cam surface 285 in the second direction is connected to an end of the other cam surface 285 in the first direction.

  Each cam surface 285 includes a first cam surface 285A, a second cam surface 285B, a third cam surface 285C, a fourth cam surface 285D, and a fifth cam surface 285E. The first cam surface 285A extends in parallel with the driving gear rotation direction. The second cam surface 285B extends rearward from the end of the first cam surface 285A in the second direction along the second direction. The end of the second cam surface 285B in the second direction is located rearward of the first cam surface 285A. The third cam surface 285C extends forward from the end of the second cam surface 285B in the second direction along the second direction. The fourth cam surface 285D extends along the second direction from the end of the third cam surface 285C in the second direction. The fourth cam surface 285D is arranged on the front side of the first cam surface 285A. The fifth cam surface 285E extends rearward along the second direction from an end of the fourth cam surface 285D in the second direction. The end of the fifth cam surface 285E in the second direction is connected to the end of the first cam surface included in the other cam surface 285 in the first direction.

<2-3-2. Supporting part 240>
As shown in FIG. 10, the support portion 240 includes support wall portions 242, 244, a decorative body support portion 246, a connection portion 248, and a detection plate 251 (see FIG. 6). The support wall portions 242 and 244 are wall portions provided at positions facing each other with the intermediate gear 273 interposed therebetween and standing upright from the support body 59 (see FIG. 7). The support walls 242 and 244 have a substantially rectangular shape in a side view, and are arranged sequentially from the left side in the left-right direction. A circular support hole 243 is formed in each of the support walls 242 and 244 at substantially the center in the front-rear direction. FIG. 10 shows only the support hole 243 formed in the support wall portion 244 among the two support holes 243. Hereinafter, an axis passing through the center of the two support holes 243 and extending in the left-right direction is referred to as an axis E.

  The decorative body support portion 246 includes a bridge portion 247, an extension portion 249, and a sliding portion 250. The bridging portion 247 is a substantially rectangular wall portion as viewed from the rear, spanning the support walls 242 and 244 behind the intermediate gear 273. Shaft portions 247A are formed at both ends in the left-right direction of the bridging portion 247, respectively. The shaft 247A extends in the left-right direction. By inserting each shaft portion 247A into each support hole 243, the decorative body support portion 246 can swing about the axis E. An insertion hole (not shown) formed in a circular shape with the axis A as a center is formed at the center in the left-right direction of the bridging portion 247. The extending portion 249 extends upward from the center in the left-right direction of the upper end of the bridging portion 247. In other words, the extending portion 249 extends from the erection portion 247 to an upward direction that is a direction intersecting the direction in which the front surface 51A of the rotating member 51 (see FIG. 3) faces. The sliding portion 250 is a columnar body extending leftward from the upper end of the extending portion 249. In this example, the sliding portion 250 can swing forward or rearward about the axis E. The sliding portion 250 is in contact with the cam surface 285 (see FIG. 9) of the cam member 280 from behind (see FIG. 5).

  The connecting portion 248 passes through the above-described central hole (not shown) of the support body 59 and the above-described central hole (not shown) of the rotating member 51, and substantially moves back and forth between the swing member 52 and the bridging portion 247. It is a cylinder extending in the direction. The connecting portion 248 of the present example is formed integrally with the rear surface of the swing member 52. At the rear end of the connecting portion 248, a fastening hole (not shown) facing rearward is formed. The screw 241 is inserted through the above-described insertion hole of the bridge portion 247, and is fastened to the fastening hole of the connection portion 248. That is, the connecting portion 248 connects the swing member 52 and the bridging portion 247, and the swing member 52 is supported by the decorative body support portion 246 so as to be able to swing around the axis E.

  The swing member 52 is located forward of the erection portion 247. Accordingly, the bridge portion 247 is biased counterclockwise (in the direction indicated by the arrow V in FIG. 10) about the axis E by the right weight of the swing member 52 when viewed from the right side. The swinging about the axis E is restricted by the sliding part 250 contacting the cam surface 285 in the bridging part 247. Note that the sliding section 250 is pressed toward the cam surface 285 (see FIG. 9). Therefore, even if the cam member 280 is urged in any direction about the axis C, the frictional force directed in the opposite direction to the direction in which the cam member 280 is urged is generated by the sliding portion 250 and the cam. Occurs between surface 285.

  As illustrated in FIG. 6, the detection target plate 251 is a rectangular plate-shaped body that projects downward from a lower portion of the right end of the erection portion 247 and that is viewed from the side. The detection plate 251 of this example is formed integrally with the erection portion 247. Therefore, the detected plate 251 can swing integrally with the swing member 52 about the axis E. When the detected plate 251 is at a predetermined swing position about the axis E, it is detected by the sensor 253. The sensor 253 is provided in a portion of the support body 59 that is to the left of the support wall portion 244 and below the bridge portion 247. The sensor 253 of this example is a transmission type sensor.

  In this example, when the detected plate 251 is detected by the sensor 253, the swing member 52 is at the intermediate swing position (see FIGS. 4, 14, 16, and the like). The intermediate swing position is a swing position of the swing member 52 in which the rear surface of the swing member 52 is substantially parallel to the front surface 51A of the rotating member 51. When the sliding portion 250 contacts the first cam surface 285A, the swing member 52 is at the intermediate swing position.

<2-3-3. Outline of swing operation of swing member 52>
Since the swing support mechanism 200 connected to the decorative body motor 202 has the above-described configuration, the swing member 52 swings from the intermediate swing position as follows.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the decorative body motor 202 rotates the motor gear 202A in a first specific direction (direction of arrow B1) which is clockwise in rear view. The rotational driving force of the decorative body motor 202 is transmitted to the intermediate gear 273 via the connection gear 271. The intermediate gear 273 rotates in the first rotation direction (the direction of the arrow M1). With the rotation of the intermediate gear 273, the drive gear 275 rotates in the first direction (the direction of the arrow A1 in FIG. 17). Each of the two protrusions 275F engages with two teeth 277A (see FIG. 17).

  As the drive gear 275 further rotates in the first direction, the second extension 275E urges the small gear 277 in the first direction via the protrusion 275F. Each of the two small gears 277 rotates in the first direction together with the drive gear 275 in a state where the rotation about the axis C is restricted. Since the tooth portion 277A is engaged with the tooth portion 281 of the cam member 280, the two small gears 277 rotate the cam member 280 (see FIG. 5) in the first direction. The cam member 280 rotates in the first direction against a frictional force generated between the sliding portion 250 and the cam surface 285.

  The cam surface 285 that rotates in the first direction slides on the sliding portion 250. More specifically, the first cam surface 285A, the second cam surface 285B, the third cam surface 285C, the fourth cam surface 285D, and the fifth cam surface 285E slide on the sliding portion 250 in order. Since the contact position between the sliding portion 250 and the cam surface 285 is displaced in the front-rear direction, the decorative body supporting portion 246 swings about the axis E. The swing member 52 at the intermediate swing position swings around the axis E together with the decorative body support 246. Thus, the direction in which the front surface 52A of the swing member 52 faces (see FIG. 3) changes.

  On the other hand, when the decorative body motor 202 rotates the motor gear 202A in the second specific direction (the direction of the arrow B2 in FIG. 7) opposite to the first specific direction, the drive gear 275 moves in the second direction (the arrow in FIG. 12). (A2 direction). The protruding portion 275F is separated from the tooth portion 275B in the second direction (see FIG. 12), and both of the two small gears 277 can be rotated about the axis D. When the drive gear 275 further rotates in the second direction, the first extension portion 275D contacts the small gear 277 and urges it in the second direction. The two small gears 277 rotate around the axis D while rotating in the second direction together with the drive gear 275. That is, the two small gears 277 roll in the second direction with respect to the teeth 281 of the cam member 280, respectively.

  In this case, the cam member 280 does not rotate in the second direction due to a frictional force generated when the sliding portion 250 is pressed against the cam surface 285. In other words, when the small gear 277 rolls in the second direction, the frictional force generated by the contact between the sliding portion 250 (see FIG. 5) and the cam surface 285 (see FIG. 5) is on the side in the first direction. The direction and the rotation of the cam member 280 in the second direction are regulated. That is, when the small gear 277 rolls in the second direction, the sliding portion 250 and the cam surface 285 function as applying means for applying a force toward the first direction to the cam member 280.

<2-4. Rotation support mechanism 300>
As shown in FIG. 10, the rotation support mechanism 300 is provided on the rear surface of the support body 59 (see FIG. 7). An intermediate gear 273, two engagement portions 305, a pair of detected portions 310, and a sensor 315 are provided. In FIG. 10, only one of the two engaging portions 305 is shown. The intermediate gear 273 is a rotator provided in the swing support mechanism 200 and rotatable about the axis A. That is, the intermediate gear 273 is a rotating body that is shared by the swing support mechanism 200 and the rotation support mechanism 300.

  The two engagement portions 305 are a pair of claw portions provided on the intermediate gear 273 at positions facing each other with the axis A interposed therebetween. The two engagement portions 305 extend forward from an inner peripheral surface surrounding the circular hole 273B of the intermediate gear 273. The two engaging portions 305 are inserted through the above-described central hole (not shown) of the rotating member 51 (see FIG. 3), and engage with the inner peripheral surface surrounding the central hole from inside. Thus, the engaging portion 305 connects the intermediate gear 273 and the rotating member 51, and the intermediate gear 273 supports the rotating member 51. Accordingly, the engagement portion 305, the intermediate gear 273, and the rotating member 51 can be integrally rotated about the axis A with the rotation of the decorative body motor 202. In other words, the intermediate gear 273 can rotate the rotating member 51 about the axis A with the rotation of the decorative body motor 202. The connecting portion 248 described above is disposed between the two engaging portions 305.

  The pair of detected parts 310 is a plate-shaped body disposed at a position facing the axis A, and protrudes from the teeth 273A of the intermediate gear 273 in a direction away from the axis A. The detected part 310 of the present example is formed integrally with the intermediate gear 273.

  The sensor 315 is attached to the support 59 (see FIG. 5) at a position that is lower left with respect to the intermediate gear 273. The sensor 315 of this example is a transmission type sensor. The sensor 315 can detect any one of the pair of detected portions 310 at a predetermined rotational position. The predetermined rotation position in this example is a position displaced from the position immediately below the axis A by approximately 45 ° in the second rotation direction (the direction of the arrow M2) (see FIG. 10).

  In this example, when the sensor 315 detects the detection target 310 at the predetermined rotation position, the rotation member 51 is at the initial rotation position (see FIGS. 3 and 14). The initial rotation position is a rotation position of the rotation member 51 in which the rectangular concave portion 51B extends from obliquely left above to obliquely downward right when viewed from the front. In this example, when the intermediate gear 273 is in the initial rotation position, the first cam surface 285A (see FIG. 9) of the cam member 280 comes into contact with the sliding portion 250 (see FIG. 5), and the swing member 52 It is in the middle swing position.

  The operation outline of the rotation support mechanism 300 having the above configuration is as follows. As shown in FIG. 7, when the decorative body motor 202 rotates the motor gear 202A in the first specific direction (the direction of the arrow B1), the intermediate gear 273 rotates in the first rotation direction (the direction of the arrow M1). The rotation member 51 rotates integrally with the intermediate gear 273 in the first rotation direction. On the other hand, when the decorative body motor 202 rotates the motor gear 202A in the second specific direction (arrow B2 direction), the rotating member 51 rotates integrally with the intermediate gear 273 in the second rotation direction (arrow M2 direction).

<3. Operation of effect device 30>
The operation of the effect device 30 for displacing the decorative body 55 will be described with reference to FIGS. 3, 4, 7, 9 to 19. In FIGS. 11, 13, and 15, the moving member 110 is schematically illustrated by a virtual line. The effect device 30 of the present example executes various operations such as a first operation and a second operation as operations for moving the decorative body 55. The first operation is an operation of the effect device 30 for rotating the rotating member 51 in a state where the swing member 52 is located at the intermediate swing position when the decorative body 55 moves between the lower end position and the upper end position. It is. The second operation is an operation of the effect device 30 that swings the swing member 52 in addition to the first operation.

<3-1. First operation of effect device 30>
The first operation of the effect device 30 will be described with reference to FIGS. 3, 7, and 11 to 13. FIG. The effect device 30 before the operation is in an initial state. The initial state is the state of the effect device 30 in which the decorative body 55 is located at the lower end position, the rotating member 51 is located at the initial rotating position, and the swinging member 52 is located at the intermediate swinging position.

  As shown in FIG. 3, with the rotation of the motor 62 of the vertical drive mechanism 40, the arm member 70 at the first rotation position rotates counterclockwise around the support shaft 72 in a front view (direction of the arrow P). , And the moving member 110 moves upward from the lower end position.

  As shown in FIG. 7, simultaneously with the rotational driving of the motor 62 (see FIG. 3), the decorative body motor 202 rotationally drives the motor gear 202A in the second specific direction (the direction of the arrow B2). With the rotation of the motor gear 202A, the rotating member 51 rotates in the second rotation direction (the direction of the arrow M2) together with the intermediate gear 273.

  The intermediate gear 273 transmits the rotational driving force of the motor gear 202A in the second specific direction to the driving gear 275. The drive gear 275 rotates in the second direction (the direction of the arrow A2 shown in FIG. 12). As shown in FIG. 12, each of the two first extension portions 275D contacts and urges the two small gears 277 in the second direction. The two small gears 277 rotate around the axis C in the second direction while rolling with respect to the teeth 281. Since the cam member 280 does not rotate, the swing member 52 maintains the state of being located at the intermediate swing position. Accordingly, the decorative body 55 moves upward from the lower end position in a state where the rotating member 51 rotates in the second direction and the swing member 52 is at the intermediate swing position.

  As shown in FIGS. 11 and 13, the roller 94 rolls with respect to the rail member 118 (see FIG. 4) at a position behind the moving member 110 with the upward movement of the decorative body 55. While moving upward. While the roller 94 rolls with respect to the plane 118A (see FIG. 4), the decorative body 55 moves upward while maintaining the state at the first specific swing position. In this case, since the urging member 127 urges the decorative body 55, the roller 94 can stably contact the flat surface 118A.

  The decorative body 55 moves upward from the lower end position through the upper and lower middle positions (see FIG. 13). The vertical middle position is the vertical position of the decorative body 55 where the roller 94 contacts the upper end of the plane 118A. The decorative body 55 at the upper and lower middle position is at the first specific swing position. When the decorative body 55 is located at an intermediate position between the upper and lower sides, a portion of the decorative body 55 above the center in the vertical direction overlaps the lower end of the display surface 27 in a front view (not shown).

  After the decorative body 55 passes through the middle position between the upper and lower sides, the roller 94 rolls with respect to the inclined surface 118B (not shown). As the decorative body 55 moves upward, the contact position between the roller 94 and the inclined surface 118B is displaced rearward. That is, as the decorative body 55 moves upward, the decorative body 55 swings counterclockwise about the axis B in a right side view. The predetermined angle of the decorative body 55 changes gradually. In this case, since the urging member 127 (see FIG. 5) urges the decorative body 55, the roller 94 can stably contact the inclined surface 118B.

  When the roller 94 rolls to the upper end of the inclined surface 118B, and when the roller 94 separates upward from the rail member 118, the decorative body 55 swings to the second specific swing position (FIGS. 14 and 15). reference).

  As shown in FIGS. 14 and 15, even after the roller 94 is separated upward from the inclined surface 118B, both the motor 62 and the decorative body motor 202 continue to be driven. Thereby, the rendering device 30 moves the decorative body 55 at the second specific swing position upward while maintaining the state in which the rotating member 51 rotates.

  When the arm member 70 rotates to a second rotation position (see FIG. 14), which is a rotation position extending upward and rightward from the axis A, the motor 62 stops rotating. The rotating member 81 and the moving member 110 stop moving upward at the upper end position. Even after the motor 62 stops rotating, the decorative body motor 202 continues to rotate. Therefore, even after the decorative body 55 has moved to the upper end position, the rotating member 51 continues to rotate in the second direction (the direction of the arrow M2) (see FIGS. 14 and 16).

  After a predetermined time has elapsed since the decoration 55 moved to the upper end position, the motor 62 is driven to rotate in the direction opposite to the direction in which the decoration 55 rises. Accordingly, the arm member 70 at the second rotation position rotates clockwise (in the direction of the arrow S in FIG. 16) about the support shaft 72 as viewed from the front. The rotating member 81 moves downward from the upper end position while rotating clockwise in a front view. Both the moving member 110 and the decorative body 55 move downward from the upper end position against the urging force of the elastic member 101 (see FIG. 3). In this case, the own weight of the moving member 110 and the decorative body 55 assists the downward movement of the moving member 110 and the decorative body 55, so that the load applied to the rotationally driven motor 62 is reduced.

  While the roller 94 moves downward to the upper end of the inclined surface 118B, the decorative body 55 moves downward while maintaining the state at the second specific swing position.

  Even when the decorative body 55 moves downward from the upper end position, the decorative body motor 202 is continuously driven to rotate. Thus, even when the decorative body 55 moves downward, the rotating member 51 continuously rotates in the second rotation direction, and the swing member 52 maintains the state in the intermediate swing position.

  With the downward movement of the decorative body 55, the roller 94 comes into contact with the upper end of the inclined surface 118B and further rolls downward along the inclined surface 118B (see FIG. 13). Since the inclined surface 118B extends obliquely forward in the downward direction, the roller 94 receives a forward reaction force from the inclined surface 118B. The decorative body 55 swings counterclockwise around the axis B in a right side view. In other words, as the roller 94 rolls down along the inclined surface 118B, the downward driving force of the moving member 110 and the decoration 55 causes the swinging power of the decoration 55 to move to the first specific swing position. Is converted to The decorative body 55 swings toward the first specific swing position against the biasing force of the biasing member 127 (see FIG. 5). When the decorative body 55 moves to the middle position in the vertical direction, it swings to the first specific swing position (see FIG. 13). The decorative body 55 moves below the upper and lower intermediate position while maintaining the state at the first specific swing position. The rotating member 51 continuously rotates, and the swing member 52 is continuously located at the intermediate swing position.

  When the arm member 70 rotates to the first rotation position (see FIG. 3), the rotation member 81, the moving member 110, and the decoration 55 all move to the lower end position, and the motor 62 stops rotating. The decorative body 55 stops at the lower end position. When the sensor 315 detects one of the pair of detected portions 310, the decorative body motor 202 stops rotating. Thus, the rotating member 51 stops at the initial rotation position. The effect device 30 returns to the initial state and ends the first operation.

<3-2. Second operation of effect device 30>
The second operation of the rendering device 30 will be described with reference to FIGS. 3, 7, 10, 11, 13, 17 to 19. The effect device 30 before executing the second operation is in an initial state. In the following description, the operation of the decorative body 55 similar to the first operation will be described in a simplified manner. In FIG. 18, a diagram in which the cam surface 285 is developed along the rotation direction of the cam member 280 is schematically illustrated together with the sliding portion 250. The front and rear positions of the sliding portion 250 shown in FIG. 18A correspond to the swing positions of the swing member 52 shown in FIG. 19A. Similarly, FIG. 18 (b) corresponds to FIG. 19 (b), FIG. 18 (c) corresponds to FIG. 19 (c), and FIG. 18 (d) corresponds to FIG. 19 (d).

  As shown in FIGS. 3, 7, 11, and 13, the motor 62 of the vertical drive mechanism 40 moves the moving member 110 upward from the lower end position, so that the decorative body 55 moves upward from the lower end position. . At the same time, the decorative body motor 202 rotationally drives the motor gear 202A in the first specific direction (the direction of the arrow B1 in FIG. 7). With the rotation of the decorative body motor 202, the rotating member 51 rotates in the first rotation direction (the direction of the arrow M1 shown in FIG. 7) together with the intermediate gear 273. The intermediate gear 273 transmits the rotational driving force of the motor gear 202A in the first specific direction to the driving gear 275.

  As shown in FIG. 17, the drive gear 275 rotates in a first direction (arrow A1 direction). The second extending portion 275E urges the small gear 277 in the first direction in a state where the protruding portion 275F is engaged with the tooth portion 277A of the small gear 277. The two small gears 277 rotate the cam member 280 in the first direction. Accordingly, the cam surface 285 (see FIG. 9) rotates in the first direction, and the swing member 52 (see FIG. 10) swings about the axis E.

  The swing operation of the swing member 52 will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. The sliding portion 250 slides sequentially on the first cam surface 285A, the second cam surface 285B, the third cam surface 285C, the fourth cam surface 285D, and the fifth cam surface 285E. In this case, the sliding portion 250 is pressed against the cam surface 285 by the weight of the swing member 52. Therefore, the sliding portion 250 can slide stably without being separated from the cam surface 285 rotating in the first direction.

  While the sliding portion 250 slides with respect to the first cam surface 285A (see FIG. 18A), the contact position between the sliding portion 250 and the cam surface 285 does not change in the front-rear direction. Is located at the intermediate swing position (see FIG. 19A).

  While the sliding portion 250 slides on the second cam surface 285B after the first cam surface 285A (not shown), the contact position between the sliding portion 250 and the cam surface 285 is displaced rearward. Accordingly, the swing member 52 (see FIG. 10) swings counterclockwise (in the direction of arrow W in FIG. 10) from the intermediate swing position about the axis E as viewed from the right side.

  When the sliding portion 250 slides on the end of the third cam surface 285C in the first direction after the second cam surface 285B (see FIG. 18B), the swing member 52 is moved to the first swing position (see FIG. 18B). 19 (b)). The first swing position is an end position on the clockwise side when viewed from the right in the swing range around the axis E. When the swing member 52 is in the first swing position, the front surface 52A of the swing member 52 faces upward from the direction in which the front surface 51A of the rotating member 51 faces. When the swing member 52 is at the first swing position, the sliding portion 250 is at the rear end position of the movable range.

  While the sliding portion 250 slides on the third cam surface 285C (see FIG. 18B), the contact position between the sliding portion 250 and the cam surface 285 is displaced forward. Thereby, the swing member 52 swings counterclockwise (in the direction of the arrow V shown in FIG. 10) about the axis E as viewed from the right side. The swing member 52 swings from the first swing position to the second swing position (see FIG. 19C) via the intermediate swing position. The second swing position is an end position on the counterclockwise side when viewed from the right in the swing range around the axis E. When the swing member 52 is in the second swing position, the direction in which the front surface 52A of the swing member 52 faces is lower than the direction in which the front surface 51A of the rotating member 51 faces. When the swing member 52 is at the first swing position, the sliding portion 250 is at the front end position of the movable range.

  While the sliding portion 250 slides on the fourth cam surface 285D next to the third cam surface 285C (see FIG. 18C), the contact portion between the sliding portion 250 and the cam surface 285 moves in the front-rear direction. No displacement. Thereby, the swing member 52 maintains the state of being located at the second swing position.

  While the sliding portion 250 slides on the fifth cam surface 285E after the fourth cam surface 285D (not shown), the contact position between the sliding portion 250 and the cam surface 285 is displaced rearward. Thus, the swing member 52 swings clockwise (in the direction of the arrow W in FIG. 10) from the second swing position about the axis E as viewed from the right side. After the sliding portion 250 slides again on the first cam surface 285A after the fifth cam surface 285E, the swing member 52 returns to the intermediate swing position.

  Accordingly, while the sliding portion 250 slides on one of the two cam surfaces 285 formed on the cam member 280, the swing member 52 moves from the intermediate swing position to the first swing position and the second swing position. It returns to the intermediate swing position via the moving position in order. As the sliding portion 250 slides alternately on the two cam surfaces 285 of the cam member 280, the rocking member 52 repeatedly rocks between the first rocking position and the second rocking position. And move up and down in front view.

  As shown in FIG. 19, when the decorative body 55 moves from the lower end position to the upper end position, the motor 62 (see FIG. 3) stops rotating and the decorative body motor 202 (see FIG. 7) continuously rotates. . With the decorative body 55 at the upper end position, the rotating member 51 rotates in the first rotation direction (the direction of the arrow M1), and the swing member 52 reciprocates between the first swing position and the second swing position. Rocks.

  After a predetermined time has passed since the decoration 55 moved to the upper end position, the motor 62 is driven to rotate, and the decoration 55 moves downward from the upper end position. While the decoration 55 moves downward, the rotating member 51 continues to rotate, and the swinging member 52 also swings back and forth. After the decorative body 55 has moved to the lower end position via the upper and lower intermediate positions, the motor 62 and the decorative body motor 202 stop rotating. The effect device 30 returns to the initial state and stops the second operation.

  In the pachinko machine 1 of this example, the first operation is executed when the jackpot is determined, and the second operation is executed during the jackpot game after the notification. By sequentially performing the first operation and the second operation, the effect device 30 can strongly attract the interest of the player even after the jackpot determination is made.

<3-3. Other operations of effect device 30>
The rendering device 30 of the present example performs a third operation, a fourth operation, a fifth operation, and the like in addition to the first operation and the second operation. The third operation is an operation of the effect device 30 in which the rotating member 51 is rotated and the swinging member 52 is stopped at the intermediate swinging position while the decorative body 55 is maintained at the lower end position. The fourth operation is the effect of the effect device 30 that rotates the rotating member 51 in a state where the swinging member 52 is located at the intermediate swinging position when the decorative body 55 moves between the lower end position and the upper and lower middle position. Action. The fifth operation is an operation of the effect device 30 that swings the swing member 52 in addition to the fourth operation.

  In this example, when the pachinko machine 1 executes the reach effect, the third operation, the fourth operation, and the fifth operation are executed in accordance with the degree of expectation of the jackpot determination result. More specifically, the third operation is performed when the degree of expectation of the jackpot determination result is relatively low, and the fourth operation is performed when the degree of expectation is higher than when the third operation is performed. When it is higher than the time when the fourth operation is executed, the fifth operation is executed. Therefore, the effect device 30 can execute various effects according to the degree of expectation of the result of the jackpot determination. Therefore, the rendering device 30 can enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body 55 is displaced.

  The effect device 30 of the present example includes a rotational drive amount of the motor 62 (that is, a vertical movement amount of the decorative body 55), a rotational drive timing of the motor 62, a rotational drive direction of the decorative body motor 202, and a decorative body motor. The timing and the like of the rotational drive of the motor 202 can be adjusted. Therefore, the effect device 30 can also displace the decorative body 55 in various patterns different from the first operation to the fifth operation described above. The pattern in which the decorative body 55 is displaced is diversified. Therefore, the rendering device 30 can enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body 55 is displaced.

<4. Example of operation and effect of the present disclosure>
As described above, when the decorative body motor 202 drives the motor gear 202A to rotate in the first specific direction, the drive gear 275 rotates in the first direction. With the rotation of the drive gear 275, the two intermediate gears 273 rotate in the first direction and rotate the cam member 280. As the cam surface 285 of the rotating cam member 280 slides with respect to the sliding portion 250, the swing member 52 swings between the first swing position and the second swing position. As a result, the posture of the swing member 52 changes, so that the appearance of the decorative body 55 changes. Therefore, the rendering device 30 can enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body 55 is displaced.

  When the decorative body motor 202 drives the motor gear 202A to rotate in the first specific direction, the rotating member 51 rotates in the first rotating direction, and the swinging member 52 swings. That is, in addition to the swinging member 52 swinging, the rotating member 51 rotates. Therefore, the change of the appearance of the decorative body 55 is further increased. Therefore, the rendering device 30 can further enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body 55 is displaced.

  An intermediate gear 273 shared by the rotation support mechanism 300 and the swing support mechanism 200 is connected to the decorative body motor 202. That is, the rotation support mechanism 300 and the swing support mechanism 200 also serve as the decorative body motor 202 as a drive source. The effect device 30 can reduce the number of drive sources of the rotation support mechanism 300 and the swing support mechanism 200. Therefore, effect device 30 can simplify the mechanism for displacing decorative body 55.

  The first extending portion 275D, the second extending portion 275E, the protruding portion 275F, the two small gears 277, and the tooth portion 281 are provided so that the rotational driving force of the motor gear 202A in the first specific direction is transmitted from the driving gear 275 to the cam member. While transmission to the swing member 52 via the 280 is permitted, the rotational driving force of the motor gear 202A in the second specific direction is transmitted from the drive gear 275 to the swing member 52 via the cam member 280. It functions as a power transmission switching unit that regulates this. When the motor gear 202A is driven to rotate in the first specific direction, the rotating member 51 rotates in the first rotating direction. On the other hand, when the motor gear 202A is driven to rotate in the second specific direction, the rotating member 51 is driven in the second rotating direction. Rotate. Therefore, the effect device 30 can largely change the manner of operation of the decorative body 55 by switching the direction in which the decorative body motor 202 is driven to rotate. In particular, in this example, the rotation direction of the rotating member 51 is different depending on whether the rotating member 51 is interlocked with the swing member 52 or not. Accordingly, with the switching of the direction in which the decorative body motor 202 is driven to rotate, the manner of operation of the decorative body 55 is further increased. Therefore, the rendering device 30 can further enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body 55 is displaced.

  With the rotation of the decorative body motor 202 in the first specific direction, the sliding portion 250 slides on the cam surface 285 of the cam member 280. As a result, the decorative body support 246 supported by the support walls 242 and 244 swings, and the swing member 52 swings between the first swing position and the second swing position. That is, the cam member 280, the decorative body support 246, and the support walls 242 and 244 convert the rotational driving force of the decorative body motor 202 in the first specific direction into the oscillating power for oscillating the oscillating member 52. Functions as a swing conversion mechanism. Thereby, the effect device 30 can stably transmit the rotational driving force of the decorative body motor 202 to the swinging member 52. Therefore, the effect device 30 can swing the swing member 52 stably.

  The cam member 280 is formed with two cam surfaces 285 that are arranged along the rotation direction of the drive gear. The cam surface 285 includes a second cam surface 285B and a third cam surface 285C. The second cam surface 285B is a surface extending along the second direction to the rear side, which is one side in the swing direction of the sliding portion 250. The third cam surface 285C is a surface extending along the second direction to the front side, which is the other side in the swing direction of the sliding portion 250. As the sliding portion 250 slides with respect to the second cam surface 285B and the third cam surface 285C, the swing member 52 swings between the first swing position and the second swing position. . Therefore, the effect device 30 can stabilize the swing of the swing member 52.

  The cam member 280 includes two cam surfaces 285, and the second cam surface 285B and the third cam surface 285C are alternately arranged along the second direction. Thus, the swing member 52 reciprocates twice while the cam member 280 makes one rotation. Therefore, the swing operation of the swing member 52 is accelerated. Therefore, the rendering device 30 can further enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body 55 is displaced.

  The decorative body motor 202 is a drive source of the rotation support mechanism 300 and the swing support mechanism 200, and is provided on the support 59. This simplifies the mechanism for transmitting the rotational driving force of the decorative body motor 202 to the rotating member 51 and the swinging member 52 as compared with the case where the decorative body motor 202 is attached to the decorative frame 14 or the like, for example. Therefore, effect device 30 can simplify the mechanism for displacing decorative body 55.

  A connecting portion 248 that connects the swing member 52 and the bridge portion 247 extends substantially in the front-rear direction while being inserted into the circular hole 273B of the intermediate gear 273. Since the space inside the tooth portion 273A of the intermediate gear 273 is utilized, the swing support mechanism 200 can be downsized. Therefore, the effect device 30 can reduce the size of the mechanism for displacing the decorative body 55.

  The shape of the front portion of the rotating member 51 is such that when rotated 180 ° about the axis A, there is no change in the appearance in front view before and after rotation. The pair of detected parts 310 are provided at positions facing each other with the axis A interposed therebetween. Therefore, no matter which of the pair of detected portions 310 is detected by the sensor 315, the appearance of the front portion of the rotating member 51 at the time of detection does not change. Regardless of which of the detected parts 310 is detected by the sensor 315, the effect device 30 can control the rotational position of the rotating member 51 based on the detection result of the sensor 315. Therefore, the rendering device 30 can control the rotation position of the rotating member 51 at a higher speed than in the case where only one detection unit 310 is provided.

  The pair of detected parts 310 is formed integrally with the intermediate gear 273. Therefore, effect device 30 can simplify the mechanism for detecting the rotational position of rotating member 51.

  The sliding portion 250 is pressed against the cam surface 285 by the weight of the swing member 52. Therefore, the sliding portion 250 can slide stably with respect to the rotating cam surface 285. Thus, the effect device 30 can stably swing the swing member 52.

  The second extending portion 275E urges the small gear 277, the rotation of which is restricted by the protrusion 275F, in the first direction. Thus, the rotational driving force of the decorative body motor 202 is transmitted from the drive gear 275 to the swing member 52 via the small gear 277 and the cam member 280. The configuration in which the rotation of the small gear 277 is restricted is realized by the protrusion 275F and the tooth 277A. The configuration in which the rotational driving force of the decorative body motor 202 is transmitted from the drive gear 275 to the swing member 52 is realized by the second extension 275E, the protrusion 275F, and the small gear 277. Therefore, effect device 30 can simplify the mechanism for transmitting the rotational driving force of decorative body motor 202 to swing member 52.

  The effect device 30 can move the decorative body 55 up and down by driving the motor 62. The effect device 30 can rotate the rotating member 51 and swing the swing member 52 while moving the decorative body 55 up and down. The movement of the decorative body 55 is further diversified. Therefore, the rendering device 30 can further enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body 55 is displaced.

  The axis E, which is the center of the swing of the swing member 52, is orthogonal to the vertical direction in which the decorative body 55 is moved by the motor 62. Thus, when the decorative body 55 moves up and down, the swing member 52 also moves up and down in a front view. The direction in which the decorative body 55 moves by the motor 62 and the direction in which the swing member 52 swings in a front view match. Accordingly, the movements of the decorative body 55 driven by the motor 62 and the decorative body motor 202 have a certain unity while becoming various. Therefore, the rendering device 30 can further enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body 55 is displaced.

  When the moving member 110 supporting the decorative body 55 moves from the upper end position to the lower end position, the predetermined angle of the decorative body 55 changes as the roller 94 rolls with respect to the inclined surface 118B. That is, the roller 94 and the inclined surface 118B function as an angle adjusting mechanism that converts the downward propulsion force of the moving member 110 and the decoration 55 into a swinging power that changes a predetermined angle of the decoration 55. The effect device 30 can change the predetermined angle of the decorative body 55 that moves up and down in addition to swinging the swinging member 52 while rotating the rotating member 51. The movement of the decorative body 55 is further diversified. Therefore, the rendering device 30 can further enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body 55 is displaced.

  Since the axis B extends in the left-right direction, when the predetermined angle changes, the length of the decorative body 55 in the vertical direction changes. Therefore, when the roller 94 rolls with respect to the inclined surface 118B, the effect device 30 changes the length of the decorative body 55 in the vertical direction while moving the swinging member 52 up and down in a front view. Therefore, the movement of the decorative body 55 looks irregular to the player. Therefore, the rendering device 30 can further enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body 55 is displaced.

  In this example, when the decorative body 55 is at the lower end position, the upper end of the decorative body 55 overlaps the lower end of the display surface 27 in a front view. On the other hand, when the decorative body 55 is at the upper end position, substantially the entire decorative body 55 overlaps the lower half of the display surface 27 in a front view. That is, by moving the decorative body 55 between the lower end position and the upper end position, the area of the portion where the decorative body 55 and the display surface 27 overlap in the front is greatly changed. Therefore, the appearance of the display surface 27 changes significantly. Therefore, the rendering device 30 can further enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body 55 is displaced.

  In the above embodiment, the pachinko machine 1 is an example of the “game machine” of the present invention. The front surface 52A is an example of the “first surface” of the present invention. The swing member 52 is an example of the “first decorative body” of the present invention. The decorative body motor 202 is an example of the “motor” of the present invention. The rotating member 51 is an example of the “second decorative body” of the present invention. The decorative body motor 202 is an example of the “drive unit” of the present invention. The drive gear 275 is an example of the “rotating member” of the present invention. The first extension 275D, the second extension 275E, the protrusion 275F, the two small gears 277, and the teeth 281 are examples of the “power transmission switching unit” of the present invention. The intermediate gear 273 is an example of the “transmission member” of the present invention. The cam member 280, the decorative body support 246, and the support walls 242, 244 are examples of the "oscillation conversion mechanism" of the present invention. The axis A is an example of the “first axis” of the present invention. The axis C is an example of the “second axis” of the present invention. The forward direction is an example of “one direction” in the present invention. The substantially front-rear direction is an example of the “first predetermined direction” of the present invention.

  The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and it is needless to say that various modifications can be made. The direction in which the axis E serving as the center of swing of the swing member 52 extends is not limited to the left-right direction. The axis E may extend, for example, in the up-down direction or the front-back direction, or may extend in a direction inclined with respect to each of the up-down direction and the left-right direction. For example, when the axis E extends in the front-rear direction, the effect device 30 reciprocates the rocking member 52 so that the direction in which the left surface and the right surface of the rocking member 52 face changes. For example, in the first swing position, the left surface of the swing member 52 may face leftward, and in the second swing position, the swing member 52 may face diagonally forward left.

  The rotation member 51 and the swing member 52 are not limited to being arranged substantially in the front-rear direction. The rotating member 51 and the swinging member 52 may be configured to be arranged in, for example, the left-right direction or the up-down direction.

  The swing member 52 is not limited to a flat member. For example, the swing member 52 may be formed in a substantially hemispherical shell shape centered on the axis E. In this case, for example, the swing member 52 may cover the lower part of the rotating member 51 from the front at the first swing position, and may expose the lower part of the rotating member 51 to the front at the second swing position. Further, decoration may be provided on the front surface 52A of the swing member 52. Accordingly, the hemispherical shell-shaped swinging member 52 swings from the first swinging position to the second swinging position, so that a predetermined portion of the front surface 52A of the swinging member 52 is displaced so as to face a different direction. The player can visually recognize that there is.

  The decorative body motor 202 may be fixed to the rear side of the game board 2 instead of being provided on the support body 59. Further, a motor (hereinafter, referred to as a specific motor) serving as a driving source of the swing member 52 and a motor serving as a driving source of the rotating member 51 may be separately provided in the decorative body 55. By providing the drive sources for the rotating member 51 and the swinging member 52 separately, the effect device 30 can freely adjust the timing of starting and ending the operation of the rotating member 51 and the swinging member 52. Thereby, the manner of operation of the decorative body 55 is further diversified, so that the rendering device 30 can improve the rendering effect when the decorative body 55 is displaced. The drive gear 275 may directly mesh with a motor gear fixed to a drive shaft of a specific motor. That is, the drive gear 275 may be directly connected to the specific motor.

  The protrusion 275F is not limited to being provided on the second extension 275E. The protrusion 275F may protrude in the second direction from the first extension 275D. In this case, when the drive gear 275 rotates in the second direction, the protrusion 275F bites into the tooth 277A, and the rotation of the small gear 277 about the axis C is restricted.

  The number of the cam surfaces 285 formed on the cam member 280 is not limited to two. The number of the cam surfaces 285 may be one, or three or more. For example, when only one cam surface 285 is formed, the second cam surface 285B and the third cam surface 285C may be formed such that the gradient with respect to the drive gear rotation direction is gentler than in the above embodiment. Good. In this case, the swing amount of the swing member 52 with respect to the rotation amount of the motor gear 202A becomes small. Therefore, the effect device 30 can accurately control the swing position of the swing member 52.

  The rotation center of the cam member 280 is not limited to the axis C extending in the front-rear direction. The rotation center of the cam member 280 may be, for example, an axis extending in the left-right direction (hereinafter, referred to as a first axis). In this case, the cam member 280 may be formed in a cylindrical shape extending in the left-right direction, and the cam surface 285 may be formed on the outer peripheral surface of the cam member 280 surrounding the first axis. For example, the cam surface 285 includes a portion extending in a direction approaching the first axis along a rotation direction about the first axis and a portion separated from the first axis. May be contacted from the side opposite to the first axis. Accordingly, the contact position between the sliding portion 250 and the cam surface 285 is displaced forward and backward with the rotation of the cam member 280 about the first axis. Therefore, the swing member 52 swings about the axis E.

  The effect device 30 may be configured to linearly move the decorative body 55 in the left-right direction instead of the up-down direction. Further, the effect device 30 may have a configuration in which, for example, the decorative body 55 is linearly moved in a direction inclined with respect to the vertical direction and the horizontal direction in front view.

  The decorative body 55 is not limited to linearly moving. For example, the decorative body 55 supported by the support member 60 may be configured to rotate around an axis extending in the front-rear direction as the motor 62 rotates. In this case, the rail member 118 provided on the support member 60 extends in an arc shape along the rotation direction of the decorative body 55.

  Both the upper end position and the lower end position of the decorative body 55 may be positions where substantially the entire decorative body 55 overlaps the display surface 27 in a front view. That is, when the decorative body 55 is located at one of the upper end position and the lower end position, it is sufficient that the decorative body 55 is closer to the central portion of the display surface 27 than at the other position.

  Instead of having the flat surface 118A, the rail member 118 may include a plurality of first surfaces extending forward as going upward and a plurality of second surfaces extending rearward as going upward, alternately along the vertical direction. Good. In this case, when the decorative body 55 moves up and down, it can swing alternately clockwise and counterclockwise around the axis A in side view. Therefore, the movement of the decorative body 55 moving up and down becomes irregular.

  The swing angle of the decorative body 55 that swings between the first specific swing position and the second specific swing position may be larger than 16 °, for example, may be 20 ° or more and less than 90 °. In this case, for example, when the front end position of the inclined surface 118B is located forward of the position shown in FIG. 15, the swing angle of the decorative body 55 is increased. The vertical length of the decorative body 55 at the first specific swing position is further smaller than the dimension L1 shown in FIG.

  In addition, all elements described in the claims, the description, and the drawings (for example, a symbol display device, a grand prize winning device, a start winning prize hole, and the like) are physically stored unless clearly stated to limit the number. It may be single or plural, and the arrangement may be appropriately changed.

<5. Remarks>
Hereinafter, the configuration of the present disclosure and its operational effects will be exemplified. The parentheses noted for the configurations below illustrate corresponding configurations of the present disclosure.

  A staging device provided in a gaming machine (pachinko machine 1), wherein a first decorative body (swinging member 52) having a first surface (front surface 52A) and the first decorative body are provided at least on the first surface. Between a first swing position in which a part thereof faces one direction (front direction) and a second swing position in which at least a part of the first surface faces in a direction different from the first swing position. Then, the first decorative body is rotated with respect to the first swing position and the second swing position by being rotationally driven in a first specific direction with a swing support mechanism (swing support mechanism 200) that swingably supports the first decorative body. And a motor (decorative body motor 202) that swings between the moving position and the moving position. According to the above configuration, when the motor is driven to rotate in the first specific direction, the first decorative body swings, and the posture of the first decorative body changes. Therefore, the rendering device can enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body is displaced.

  The effect device is a support (support 59) for supporting the swing support mechanism, and a mechanism provided on the support, and includes a first predetermined direction (substantially front-back direction) parallel or intersecting with the one direction. ), A rotation support mechanism that supports a second decorative body (rotating member 51) arranged so as to be aligned with the first decorative body so as to be rotatable about a first axis (axis A) extending in the first predetermined direction. (Rotating support mechanism 300) and a driving means (decorative body motor 202) for rotating the second decorative body may be provided. In this case, the effect device swings the first decorative body and rotates the second decorative body. Therefore, the rendering device can further enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body is displaced.

  In the effect device, the driving means may be the motor. In this case, the effect device can reduce the number of drive sources. Therefore, the effect device can simplify the mechanism for displacing the decorative body.

  In the effect device, the rocking support mechanism rotates in a first direction around a second axis (axis C) extending in the first predetermined direction with rotation driving of the motor in the first specific direction. On the other hand, with rotation driving of the motor in a second specific direction opposite to the first specific direction, a rotating member (driving member) that rotates in a second direction opposite to the first direction about the second axis. Gear 275) and the rotational driving force of the motor in the first specific direction is allowed to be transmitted from the rotating member to the first decorative body, while the rotational driving force of the motor in the second specific direction is allowed. Power transmission switching unit (first extension 275D, second extension 275E, protrusion 275F, two small gears 277, teeth 281) for restricting transmission of the rotation from the rotating member to the first decorative body. And the rotation support mechanism includes the motor. A member for transmitting the rotational driving force of the motor to the rotating member, and with the rotation of the motor in the first specific direction, while rotating the second decorative body in the first rotational direction, A transmission member (intermediate gear 273) that rotates the second decorative body in a second rotation direction opposite to the first rotation direction with the rotation drive in the second specific direction may be provided. In this case, when the motor is driven to rotate in the first specific direction, the first decorative body swings and the second decorative body rotates. On the other hand, when the motor is driven to rotate in the second specific direction, the first decorative body does not swing and the second decorative body rotates. The operation of the decorative body greatly differs between the case where the motor is driven to rotate in the first specific direction and the case where the motor is driven to rotate in the second specific direction. Therefore, the rendering device can further enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body is displaced.

  In the effect device, the swing support mechanism may include a swing conversion mechanism (a cam member 280, a swing conversion mechanism) that converts a rotational driving force of the motor in the first specific direction into a swing power that swings the first decorative body. The decorative body support portion 246 and the support wall portions 242 and 244) may be provided. In this case, the first decoration body swings by the swing conversion mechanism converting the rotational driving force of the motor in the first specific direction into the swinging power for swinging the first decoration body. Therefore, the effect device can stably swing the first decorative body by the rotational driving force of the motor.

  In the effect device, the swing conversion mechanism is configured to rotate along with the rotation of the motor around a third axis (axis C) extending in a second predetermined direction (substantially the front-back direction) parallel or intersecting with the one direction. A rotating member, a cam member (280) having a cam surface (285) provided on a side (rearward direction) opposite to the one direction with respect to the first decorative body; and the rotating cam surface. A decorative part supporting part (decorative body supporting part 246) having a sliding part (250) that slides with respect to the first decorative body; And a swing support portion (support wall portions 242, 244) for swingably supporting a portion in a direction (downward direction) intersecting with the one direction. By the body supporting portion swinging, between the first swing position and the second swing position The cam surface moves along one of the swing directions of the sliding portion (the front side and the third side) along a third rotation direction (one of the first direction and the second direction) about the third axis. A first cam surface (either one of the second cam surface 285B and the third cam surface 285C) extending to one of the rear sides) is connected to the first cam surface and along the third rotation direction. And a second cam surface (either the second cam surface 285B or the third cam surface 285C) extending to the other side (one of the front side and the rear side) opposite to the one side. In this case, when the cam member rotates with the rotation of the motor, the sliding portion slides on the cam surface, and the first decorative body swings. Since the sliding portion slides on the cam surface, the swing of the first decorative body is stabilized.

  In the effect device, the cam member may include a plurality of the cam surfaces, and the first cam surface and the second cam surface may be alternately arranged along the third rotation direction. In this case, while the cam member makes one rotation, the first decorative body swings back and forth at least twice. The swing of the first decoration body is accelerated. Therefore, the rendering device can further enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body is displaced.

  In the effect device, both the motor and the driving unit may be provided on the support. In this case, the number of members connecting the motor and the first decorative body and the number of members connecting the driving means and the second decorative body are reduced. Therefore, the effect device can simplify the mechanism for displacing the decorative body.

  In the effect device, the transmission member includes a hole (a circular hole 273B) pointing in the first predetermined direction, and the swing conversion mechanism extends in the first predetermined direction while being inserted through the hole. A first support portion (connecting portion 248) that supports the first decorative body at a portion on one end side, and a portion of the first support portion opposite to the one end portion across the hole. And a second support portion (support wall portions 242, 244) that supports the first swing member so that the first swing position and the first swing position can be adjusted by swinging the first support portion. It may swing between the second swing position. In this case, since the first support for supporting the first decoration is inserted into the hole of the transmission member, the mechanism for displacing the decoration can be reduced in size.

  In the effect device, the first predetermined direction is substantially a front-rear direction, and a front portion of the second decorative body has a shape that is substantially point-symmetric with respect to the first axis in a front view, The rotation support mechanism includes a rotating body (intermediate gear 273) that rotates with the rotation of the driving unit, and a pair of rotating bodies provided on the rotating body and facing each other across an axis (axis A) serving as a rotation center of the rotating body. (Detected portion 310), and detecting means (sensor 315) for detecting the detected portion at a predetermined rotational position in the rotation direction of the rotating body among the pair of detected portions. Is also good. In this case, the effect device can control the rotational position of the second decorative body by detecting one of the pair of detected parts by the detecting means. Therefore, the rendering device can speed up the control for rotating the second decorative body.

  In the effect device, the first predetermined direction is substantially a front-rear direction, and a front part of the second decorative body is shaped symmetrically with respect to a virtual plane including the first axis, and the transmission member Is rotated by the rotation of the motor, and the rotation support mechanism is formed integrally with the transmission member, and a pair of detected members opposing each other with an axis (axis A) serving as a rotation center of the transmission member interposed therebetween. And a detecting unit (sensor 315) for detecting the detected portion at a predetermined rotational position in the rotation direction of the transmission member among the pair of detected portions. In this case, since the pair of detectors is formed integrally with the transmission member, the effect device can simplify the mechanism for detecting the rotational position of the second decorative body.

  In the effect device, the first surface may face a front side, the one direction may be a front direction, and the opposite direction may be a rear direction. In this case, the swing position of the decorative body support portion is a swing position at which the sliding portion comes into contact with the cam surface due to the weight of the first decorative body. Therefore, the first decorative body can stably swing by the rotation of the cam member.

  In the effect device, the power transmission switching unit is provided on the rotating member, and is provided on the rotating member, with a first extending portion (first extending portion 275D) extending crossing the first direction, A second extending portion (a second extending portion 275E) that faces the first extending portion at an interval on the side in the first direction and that intersects the first direction; A fourth axis (axis D) which is urged by the one extending part or the second extending part and moves in a direction in which the rotating member rotates, and which is parallel to the second axis with the movement; An operating member (small gear 277) rotatable around the axis, and when the rotating member rotates in the first direction, the operating member is set to a state in which rotation about the fourth axis is restricted. When the rotating member rotates in the second direction, the operating member is moved to the fourth axis. A switching part (protruding part 275F, tooth part 277A) that makes the state rotatable around the center, and a rotation driving force of the motor transmitted by the operation member whose rotation is restricted is directed toward the first decorative body. And a second transmission member (cam member 280) for transmitting. In this case, the switching unit switches between a state in which rotation of the operating member about the fourth axis is permitted and a state in which rotation of the operating member about the fourth axis is restricted. Thereby, the state is switched between a state in which the driving force of the motor is allowed to be transmitted to the first decorative body and a state in which the transmission of the driving force of the motor to the first decorative body is restricted. The transmission of the driving force of the motor to the first decoration body is realized by the operation member whose rotation is restricted being urged by the first extension portion or the second extension portion. Therefore, effect device 30 can simplify the mechanism for transmitting the rotational driving force of the motor to the first decorative body.

  The rendering device drives the movable body (moving member 110) that supports the support body and is displaceable in a third predetermined direction (vertical direction) that intersects the one direction, and thereby drives the movable body in the third direction. And a second driving means (motor 62) for displacing in three predetermined directions. In this case, the effect device swings the first decorative body and moves the first decorative body in the third predetermined direction. Therefore, the rendering device can further enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body is displaced.

  The effect device includes a support mechanism (150) provided on the movable body for swingably supporting the support, and a second support (support) for supporting the movable body movably in the third predetermined direction. The member 60) converts a propulsive force of the movable body displaced to one side in the third predetermined direction into a swinging power of the support, and sets a predetermined angle that is an angle of the support with respect to the third predetermined direction. An angle adjusting mechanism (the roller 94 and the inclined surface 118B) for changing the angle may be provided. In this case, the effect device displaces the first decorative body in the third predetermined direction and changes the predetermined angle of the support. The angle of the first decorative member with respect to the third direction changes with the predetermined angle of the support. Therefore, the rendering device can further enhance the rendering effect when the decorative body is displaced.
