  The effect control board 12 includes an effect control CPU 120 for performing a control operation according to a program, a ROM 121 for storing an effect control program and fixed data, a RAM 122 for providing a work area of the effect control CPU 120, and an effect display device. 5, a display control unit 123 that executes processing for determining the control content of the display operation, a random number circuit 124 that updates numerical data indicating a random number value independently of the effect control CPU 120, and an I / O 125. And are installed. As an example, in the effect control board 12, when the effect control CPU 120 executes the effect control program read from the ROM 121, a process for controlling the effect operation by the electric components for effect is executed. The ROM 121 stores various data tables and the like used for controlling the rendering operation in addition to the rendering control program.

  Next, the progress of the game in the pachinko gaming machine 1 will be schematically described. In the pachinko gaming machine 1, the ordinary symbol game is started by the ordinary symbol display 20 based on the fact that the game ball has passed through the passage gate 41 provided in the gaming area 10. After starting the change of the normal symbol, if the predetermined time that is the normal symbol change time elapses and the normal symbol other than the symbol per symbol is stopped and displayed, the normal symbol change display result is `` Normal symbol loss '' Become. When a specific ordinary symbol (a symbol per ordinary symbol) is stopped and displayed, the variation display result of the ordinary symbol becomes "an ordinary symbol", and enlargement and opening control (tilt control) of the ordinary variable winning ball device 6B is performed. Normal opening control is performed to return to the vertical position after a lapse of time.

  After the first starting condition is established by, for example, the game ball winning the first starting winning opening, the first starting condition is established by, for example, ending the previous special map game or the big hit game state. Then, the special figure game using the first special symbol display 4A is started. In addition, after the second starting condition is satisfied by the game ball winning the second starting winning opening or the like, the second starting condition is satisfied by, for example, ending the previous special map game or big hitting game state. Based on this, the special figure game using the second special symbol display 4B is started.

  In the special figure game, after the variable display of the special symbol is started, a fixed special symbol (special figure display result) is derived and displayed when the variable display time elapses. At this time, if a specific special symbol (big hit symbol) is stopped and displayed, the result is "big hit" as a specific display result, and if a special symbol different from the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed, "miss". After the fluctuation display result in the special figure game becomes “big hit”, the game is controlled to a big hit game state as a specific game state in which a round (also called “round game”) advantageous to the player is executed a predetermined number of times.

  In the big hit game state, the special winning prize ball device 7 has a special winning opening door for a predetermined period (for example, 29 seconds or 0.1 seconds) or a predetermined number (for example, 9) of prize balls. During the period until the event occurs, the special winning opening is kept open. As a result, a round in which the special variable winning ball device 7 is placed in the first state (open state) which is advantageous for the player is executed.

  The special winning opening door, which has the special winning opening opened during the execution of the round, receives game balls falling on the surface of the game board 2 and then closes the special winning opening to form a special variable winning prize ball device. 7 is changed to a second state (closed state) disadvantageous to the player, and one round is ended. The round, which is the opening cycle of the special winning opening, can be repeatedly executed until the number of executions reaches a predetermined upper limit number (for example, “16”).

  In the effect symbol display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R of the effect display device 5, the variation display of the effect symbols is started in response to the start of the special figure game. Then, during the period from the start of the variable display of the effect symbol to the end of the variable display, the variable display state of the effect symbol may reach a predetermined reach state. The reach state is a display in which the effect symbols stopped and displayed in the display area of the effect display device 5 constitute a part of the big hit combination, and the effect symbols that have not been stopped and displayed are still changing. A state or a display state in which all or some of the effect symbols are synchronously fluctuating while forming all or a part of the big hit combination.

  As a fixed special symbol in the special figure game, a fixed effect symbol that is a predetermined normal big hit combination (also referred to as a “non-probable variable big hit combination”) of a plurality of types of big hit combinations is stopped and displayed, and the fluctuation display result is “non-probable variable big hit”. ", The state is controlled to the big hit state, and after the end, time reduction control (time reduction control) is performed. By performing the time saving control, the fluctuation display time (special figure fluctuation time) of the special symbol in the special figure game is shortened as compared with the normal state. In the time-saving control, a so-called electric chew support, in which the winning frequency of the ordinary symbols is increased and the winning frequency to the ordinary variable winning ball apparatus 6B is increased. In the time-saving control, a predetermined number of times (for example, 100 times) of the special figure game is executed after the end of the big hitting game state, and either of the conditions is satisfied that the variable display result is “big hit”. Sometimes, it may be ended.

  As a confirmed special symbol in the special figure game, a determined effect symbol that is a predetermined probability variable jackpot combination (also referred to as a “variable probability jackpot combination”) among a plurality of types of jackpot combinations is stopped and displayed, and the fluctuation display result is “probability variable jackpot”. If it does, it is controlled to the big hit state, and after that, the probability variation control (probable variation control) is performed together with the time saving control. By performing the certainty change control, the probability that the change display result is "big hit" in each special figure game is improved so as to be higher than that in the normal state. Probable change control is performed when the change display result becomes “big hit” after the big hit game state is completed and the condition of controlling the big hit game state is satisfied again. When the special map game is executed, the probability change control is ended by the probability variable lottery executed each time the special map game is started after the big hit game state is ended, and the "determinate fall" is determined. It may end at time, etc.

  When the time-saving control is performed, the control for making the fluctuation time of the ordinary symbol in the ordinary figure game (the ordinary figure fluctuation time) shorter than that in the normal state, and the fluctuation display result of the ordinary symbol in each ordinary figure game becomes The control for improving the probability of "hit" than in the normal state, and the tilt control time for performing the tilt control of the movable wing piece in the normally variable winning prize ball device 6B based on the fact that the variable display result has become "common figure hit", The game ball can easily pass (enter) the second start winning opening, such as control to make it longer than in the normal state and control to increase the number of tilts than in the normal state, and the second start condition can be satisfied. Controls (electric power support control, high opening control) that are advantageous to the player by increasing the performance are performed. As a result, the second starting condition for executing the special figure game using the second special figure is easily satisfied, and the special figure game can be frequently executed. The time until it becomes shorter.

  Next, an operation (operation) of the pachinko gaming machine 1 in the present embodiment will be described. In the main board 11, when the power supply from a predetermined power supply board is started, the game control microcomputer 100 is started, and the CPU 103 executes a predetermined process as a game control main process.

  In the special symbol process process, the CPU 103 first determines whether there is a first start prize or a second start prize, and if there is a prize, the special figure display result determination, the big hit type determination, the variation pattern A random number value for determination or the like is extracted, and a start winning process is executed in which the random number value is extracted and stored (stored) at the highest position of an empty entry in the first special figure reservation storage unit or the second special figure reservation storage unit.

  Further, the CPU 103 determines whether or not to start the special figure game based on the presence / absence of the hold data stored in the first special figure hold storage unit and the second special figure hold storage unit, Based on the numerical data indicating the random number for determination, a special (decision is made) before the variation display result is derived and displayed, as to whether or not the variation display result of the special symbol or the effect symbol is a "big hit". The symbol normal processing is executed. That is, when starting the variation display of the special figure game, the CPU 103 determines whether to derive and display the big hit display result as the display result of the variation display based on the random number value stored when the start winning is generated. The process of determining (lottery) is executed.

  Next, a variation pattern setting process of determining the variation pattern to be one of a plurality of types, a special symbol variation process of performing a setting for varying the special symbol and a process of measuring an elapsed time after the special symbol starts to vary, A special symbol stop process is performed for stopping the fluctuation of the special symbol and performing a setting for stopping and displaying (deriving) the fixed special symbol. When the fluctuation display result is "big hit", a big hit opening pre-process, a big hit opening process, a big hit opening process, and a big hit ending process for opening and closing the big winning port in the big hit game state are performed.

  Next, the operation of the effect control board 12 will be described. First, when power is turned on, effect control CPU 120 starts execution of the main process. When a timer interrupt occurs in the main processing, command analysis processing, effect control process processing, effect random number update processing, and volume adjustment processing are executed.

  As shown in FIG. 8A, a guide groove 323 for moving and guiding the lock plate 306L is formed in the drive base 310L. The guide groove 323 includes a guide portion 323A extending obliquely downward and leftward so as to be substantially parallel to the fixed rail 350L, and a restricting portion 323B bent in a hook shape from the upper end of the guide portion 323A to the left. In this guide groove 323, a guided shaft 342 of a lock plate 306L described later is inserted. The connecting portion between the guiding portion 323A and the regulating portion 323B is formed in a curved shape so that the guided shaft 342 can smoothly move between the guiding portion 323A and the regulating portion 323B.

  As shown in FIG. 8 (B), a bearing hole 325 is formed at the left end of the rotating member 313L, and a rotating shaft that projects in the front-rear direction and protrudes from the bearing hole 325 on the back surface of the drive base 310L. With the insertion of 324, the rotating member 313L is pivotally supported on the rotating shaft 324 on the rear side of the drive base 310L. From the vicinity of the bearing hole 325, a first long hole 326 is linearly extended in a direction away from the bearing hole 325, and a connection shaft 322 of the fourth gear 312D is provided in the first long hole 326. It is slidably inserted.

  From the vicinity of the left end of the first elongated hole 326, a second elongated hole 327 extends in an arc shape in a direction away from the bearing hole 325. The second elongated hole 327 has a lock plate 306L described later. The guided shaft 342 is slidably inserted. The right end of the second long hole 327 is disposed below the left end of the first long hole 326, and the second long hole 327 is provided to be slightly inclined with respect to the first long hole 326.

  Above the first elongated hole 326, a detection piece 328 that is detected by a first position sensor 329 provided on the back surface of the drive base 310L is formed. In the present embodiment, the detection piece 328 is detected by the first position sensor 329 when the first movable body 302L is at the first standby position.

  The lock plate 306L is formed in a substantially trapezoidal shape when viewed from the front, and has guide holes 340A and 340B oriented in the left-right direction at the lower portion side by side. The left and right guide shafts 341A and 341B protruding from the rear surface of the first movable body 302L are inserted into the guide holes 340A and 340B, respectively, whereby the lock plate 306L is connected to the rear drive base 310L and the front surface. The first movable body 302L is provided to be slidable in the left-right direction with respect to the first movable body 302L.

  In addition, a columnar guided shaft 342 is projected from the rear surface of the lock plate 306L. The guided shaft 342 is inserted through the guide groove 323 of the drive base 310L, and further inserted into the second long hole 327 of the rotating member 313L on the back side.

  When the drive shaft 311a of the first effect motor 311L rotates, the driving unit 305L configured as described above rotates this rotational force from the first gear 312A, the second gear 312B, the third gear 312C, and the fourth gear 312D. The first movable body 302L provided with the lock plate 306L is moved between the first standby position and the first advance position by being transmitted to the moving member 313L and further transmitted from the rotating member 313L to the lock plate 306L. Moving. That is, the first gear 312A, the second gear 312B, the third gear 312C, the fourth gear 312D, the rotating member 313L, and the lock plate 306L transmit the power of the first effect motor 311L to the first movable body 302L. It constitutes a power transmission mechanism.

  Then, as shown in FIGS. 7A and 7B, when the first movable body 302L is at the first standby position, the connecting shaft 322 contacts the end of the first elongated hole 326 on the rotation shaft 324 side. By doing so, the rotating member 313L is maintained in a state of being inclined obliquely upward to the left in rear view. On the other hand, the guided shaft 342 is disposed in the regulating portion 323B above the guide groove 323. In this state, the connection shaft 322 abuts on the end of the first elongated hole 326 on the rotation shaft 324 side, so that the rotation of the rotation member 313L counterclockwise in rear view is restricted.

  Specifically, when the first movable body 302L is at the first standby position, the rotating shaft 320D of the fourth gear 312D and the rotating shaft 324 of the rotating member 313L are disposed on the left and right, and the connecting shaft 322 is It is arranged on the rotation shaft 324 side from the position immediately above the dynamic shaft 320D and above the rotation shaft 320D and the rotation shaft 324. Then, the connection shaft 322 abuts on the end of the first elongated hole 326 on the rotation shaft 324 side, thereby restricting the clockwise rotation in the rear view, and thereby the counterclockwise rotation of the rotation member 313L in the rear view. Rotation is regulated. In other words, the connection shaft 322 of the fourth gear 312D and the first elongated hole 326 of the rotating member 313L allow the rotating member 313L to rotate clockwise when viewed from the front when the first movable body 302L is at the first standby position. Of the first lock mechanism (self-lock mechanism) for regulating the pressure.

  Further, since the guided shaft 342 is disposed in the regulating portion 323B, the downward movement of the guided shaft 342 is regulated, and the first lock mechanism rotates the rotating member 313L clockwise in front view. , The movement of the second elongated hole 327 obliquely downward and leftward is restricted, so that the movement of the guided shaft 342 toward the guide portion 323A is restricted.

  More specifically, the lock plate 306L provided on the first movable body 302L has the guided shaft 342 disposed in the substantially horizontal regulating portion 323B, so that the loads on the lock plate 306L and the first movable body 302L are all reduced. Since it is supported by the lower side of the regulating portion 323B, it is maintained at the upper position of the guide groove 323. Further, since the second elongated hole 327 of the rotating member 313L is disposed so as to vertically intersect with the substantially horizontal regulating portion 323B, the guide shaft 342 moves from the regulating portion 323B to the guide portion 323A. Since the movement is restricted, the guided shaft 342 is prevented from moving from the restriction part 323B to the guide part 323A due to factors such as vibration.

  That is, the restricting portion 323B of the guide groove 323 of the drive base 310L, the guided shaft 342 of the lock plate 306L, and the guided shaft 342 act on the guided shaft 342 to move from the restricting portion 323B to the guide portion 323A. Is a second lock mechanism (self-lock mechanism) that regulates the downward movement of the lock plate 306L and the first movable body 302L when the first movable body 302L is at the first standby position. ).

  Here, the driving state of the driving unit 305L will be described with reference to FIGS. In FIGS. 9 and 10, the rotating member 313L is shown by dots for easy understanding. First, as shown in FIG. 9A, when the first effecting motor 311L is driven in a state where the first movable body 302L is at the first standby position, the rotational force of the drive shaft 311a is changed to the first gear 312A and the first gear 312A. The power is transmitted to the second gear 312B, the third gear 312C, and the fourth gear 312D.

  Then, when the connecting shaft 322 of the fourth gear 312D rotates counterclockwise in rear view, the rotating member 313L rotates counterclockwise around the rotating shaft 324 as shown in FIG. 9B. Start rotation. As a result, the second elongated hole 327 moves obliquely downward and to the left as viewed from the rear, so that the guided shaft 342 is moved toward the guide portion 323A. When the connection shaft 322 rotates to a position immediately above the rotation shaft 320D of the fourth gear 312D, the rotation restriction state of the rotation member 313L by the first lock mechanism is released, and the rotation of the rotation member 313L is restricted by the restriction portion 323B of the guided shaft 342. The restriction on the movement of the guide portion 323A is released, and thus the restriction on the downward movement of the guided shaft 342 by the second lock mechanism is released, so that the state of the downward movement of the first movable body 302L is released. .

  When the guided shaft 342 moves only to the left when moving along the regulating portion 323B, the lock plate 306L slides leftward in the rear view with respect to the first movable body 302L, but the first movable body 302L Since it does not substantially fall, the first movable body 302L is prevented from unnaturally finely moving due to the lock and unlock operations.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 9C, when the connecting shaft 322 moves toward the guide groove 323 from a position immediately above the rotation shaft 320D of the fourth gear 312D, the guided shaft 342 enters the guide portion 323A, The one movable body 302L can move from the first standby position toward the first advance position. Then, as shown in FIG. 10A, when the connecting shaft 322 rotates counterclockwise in rear view, the guided shaft 342 is pushed downward by the second elongated hole 327 and moves rightward along the guide groove 323. By moving diagonally downward, the first movable body 302L moves diagonally right downward along the fixed rail 350L.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 10B, the rotation of the rotation member 313L is regulated by the connection shaft 322 being located at the lower end of the guide portion 323A, and the first effect motor 311L is turned off. Thus, the first movable body 302L is held at the lower first advance position by its own weight.

  When raising the first movable body 302L from the first advance position to the first standby position, the drive shaft 311a of the first effect motor 311L is driven in a direction opposite to that at the time of lowering. As a result, the rotating member 313L rotates clockwise around the rotating shaft 320D, whereby the guided shaft 342 is pushed upward by the second elongated hole 327, and is inclined leftward along the guide groove 323. Move upward. When the guided shaft 342 reaches the upper end of the guide portion 323A and moves to the regulating portion 323B, the downward movement of the guided shaft 342 is regulated by the second lock mechanism, and the connecting shaft 322 is moved to the second position. By abutting the end of the one elongated hole 326 on the rotation shaft 324 side, the rotation of the rotation member 313L counterclockwise in rear view is regulated by the first lock mechanism.

  Further, since the second elongated hole 327 is formed not in a straight line but in an arc shape, for example, as shown in FIG. 9C, when the guided shaft 342 is near the upper portion of the guide portion 323A, The second elongated hole 327 does not become parallel to the guide portion 323A but intersects.

  As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 as an embodiment of the present invention, the first standby position and the second standby position different from the first standby position by the first effecting motors 311L and 311R, which are drive sources. Driving force transmitting means (for example, first to fourth powers) for transmitting the power of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R moving between the standby positions and the first effecting motors 311L and 311R to the first movable bodies 302L and 302R. The gears 312A to 312D, the rotating members 313L and 313R), and a first lock mechanism (for example, a fourth gear 312D) that restricts the movement of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R to the second standby position in the first standby position. Shaft 322, the first elongated hole 326 of the rotating member 313L) and a second locking mechanism (for example, the regulating portion 323B of the guide groove 323, the guided shaft 342 of the lock plate 306L, the second length). 327), and the driving force transmitting means includes at least rotating members 313L and 313R as specific transmitting members operated by the first effect motors 311L and 311R, and the rotating members 313L and 313R include A part of each of the lock mechanism and the second lock mechanism (for example, a first elongated hole 326 and a second elongated hole 327) is provided.

  By doing so, the movement of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R to the second standby position can be sufficiently restricted by the two lock mechanisms, and one rotating member 313L, 313R can be connected to the two lock mechanisms. Since it can be used for each regulation, the structure can be simplified and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

  Further, the connecting shaft 322 of the fourth gear 312D as the first lock mechanism and the first elongated holes 326 of the rotating members 313L and 313R are provided when the first movable bodies 302L and 302R are at the first standby position. The first movable bodies 302L and 302R are configured such that the first movable bodies 302L and 302R define the first movable bodies 302L and 302R, which regulate the rotation of the guide grooves 323 as a second lock mechanism. By restricting the lowering of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R when in the standby position, the rotation members 313L, 313R and the first movable bodies 302L, 302R are regulated by different lock mechanisms, respectively. The movement of the bodies 302L and 302R can be suitably restricted.

  In this manner, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R are not regulated by holding the first movable bodies 302L and 302R by the two lock mechanisms at the first standby position, but the first movable bodies 302L and 302R are directly controlled by one second lock mechanism. And the other first lock mechanism transmits the power of the first effect motors 311L and 311R to the first movable bodies 302L and 302R via the first movable bodies 313L and 313R as specific transmission members. Since the locks 302L and 302R are indirectly held, the load on one lock mechanism can be distributed.

  More specifically, in the present embodiment, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R are moved from the first standby position to the first advance position side by the first lock mechanism and the second lock mechanism when in the first standby position. Although regulated, the load of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R is basically received by the lower side of the regulating portion 323B via the guided shaft 342, and the first movable bodies 302L, 302R are supported by the rotating members 313L, 313R. Load is hardly applied. Therefore, the frictional resistance generated between the connecting shaft 322 and the peripheral edge of the first elongated hole 326 when the connecting shaft 322 constituting the first lock mechanism is turned to the restricted state or released is reduced. The load on the first effect motors 311L and 311R for changing the first lock mechanism between the restricted state and the released state can be reduced as much as possible.

  In the present embodiment, the first lock mechanism and the second lock mechanism are different from each other in the configuration and structure of the mechanism for setting the target member in the regulated state, but the present invention is not limited to this. Instead, the first lock mechanism and the second lock mechanism may have the same structure.

  In addition, the rotating members 313L and 313R are provided with a first elongated hole 326 as a first mechanism part constituting a first lock mechanism, and a second elongated part provided separately from the first mechanism part and constituting a second lock mechanism. By having the second elongated hole 327 as the mechanism, the connection shaft 322 that moves the first elongated hole 326 as the first mechanism and the guided shaft that moves the second elongated hole 327 as the second mechanism. Problems such as breakage due to contact with the shaft 342 can be avoided.

  Further, in a state where the first movable bodies 302L and 302R are at the first standby position, the first effect motors 311L and 311R are driven, and the connection shaft 322 is rotated to a position immediately above the rotation shaft 320D of the fourth gear 312D. Then, the rotation restricting state of the rotation members 313L and 313R by the first lock mechanism is released, and the restriction on the movement of the guided shaft 342 from the restriction portion 323B to the guide portion 323A is released, whereby the second lock mechanism is released. As a result, the downward movement restriction of the guided shaft 342 is released, so that the downward movement restriction state of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R is released. In this way, two locks are provided using the first effect motors 311L and 311R for moving the first movable bodies 302L and 302R without separately providing a drive source for each lock mechanism. Since each mechanism can be regulated and released, the structure can be simplified and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

  Also, as shown in FIG. 7B, when the first movable bodies 302L and 302R are at the first standby position, the connecting shaft 322 and the rotating members 313L and 313R of the fourth gear 312D as the first lock mechanism are used. The first long hole 326 is disposed at a position lower than the restricting portion 323B of the guide groove 323 as the second lock mechanism, the guided shaft 342 of the lock plate 306L, and the second long hole 327, so that the first movable hole 326 is formed. The movement of the bodies 302L and 302R can be suitably restricted at the first standby position.

  In addition, the second lock mechanism is provided continuously with the guided shaft 342 provided on the first movable bodies 302L and 302R, the guide portion 323A of the guide groove 323 for moving and guiding the guided shaft 342, and the guide portion 323A. A regulating portion 323B that regulates the movement of the guided shaft 342 when the first movable bodies 302L and 302R are at the first standby position, and a regulating portion 323A that acts on the guided shaft 342 to guide the guided shaft 342 (restriction release). Position) and a second elongated hole 327 as an operating portion that moves between the regulating portion 323B (regulated position) as a mechanical portion, and the rotating members 313L and 313R have the second elongated hole 327. The second locking mechanism can be changed between the restricted state and the released state by the movement of the guided shaft 342 by the operation of the rotating members 313L and 313R.

  That is, the first lock mechanism rotates the connection shaft 322 by the first effect motors 311L, 311R that move the first movable bodies 302L, 302R, thereby releasing the rotation members 313L, 313R from the rotation restricted state. In contrast to the lock mechanism that changes the state, the second lock mechanism uses the operation (rotation) of the rotation members 313L and 313R released from the restricted state by the first lock mechanism. Since the lock mechanisms change the locked state between 302L and 302R between the restricted state and the released state, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R are moved without changing the respective lock mechanisms between the restricted state and the released state by separate driving sources. It is possible to change between the regulated state and the released state by using the power of one driving source to be performed.

  In addition, since a part of the first lock mechanism and a part of the second lock mechanism are formed in one rotating member 313L, 313R, the structure of the drive units 305L, 305R can be simplified and the manufacturing cost can be reduced. Can be.

However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the driving force transmitting means may be constituted by the above-described rotating gear, a gear mechanism including a rack and a pinion, or the like. An arm mechanism like the members 313L and 313R may be used.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the first lock mechanism and the second lock mechanism are configured by the connection shaft and the long hole. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and other structural parts may be used. May be configured.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, of the first to fourth gears 312A to 312D as the driving force transmitting means and the rotating members 313L and 313R, the first locking mechanism and the second locking mechanism are respectively attached to the rotating members 313L and 313R.

However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the movement to the first advance position may be restricted by three or more lock mechanisms. Further, two or more components constituting at least one of the first lock mechanism and the second lock mechanism may be formed on the rotating members 313L and 313R.

  Also, as shown in FIG. 15B, in a state where the second movable body 402 is at the second advance position, the drive shaft 425a of the second effect motor 425 is reversely rotated, so that the first movable base 410A is in front. The third movable base 410C pivots counterclockwise as viewed, and the second movable base 410B descends in response thereto, whereby the third movable base 410C pivots clockwise as viewed from the front. And the 1st movable base 410A and the 3rd movable base 410C are arrange | positioned at a horizontal position, and the 2nd movable body 402 is arrange | positioned at a 2nd standby position by arrange | positioning the 2nd movable base 410B at a lower position.

  Next, the first effect unit 411A, the second effect units 411B and 411D, and the third effect unit 411C will be described.

  The first production section 411A, the second production sections 411B, 411D, and the third production section 411C are each made of a non-light-transmissive production member having a decoration or the like on its front surface, and extend from the second standby position to the second advance position. Are moved separately from each other, and when they move to the second advance position, they are combined to form a predetermined form (for example, see FIG. 17). As described above, the first rendering unit 411A, the second rendering units 411B and 411D, and the third rendering unit 411C that constitute the second movable body 402 are portions that are noticed by the player, and these first rendering units 411A are provided. A moving mechanism for moving the second effect units 411B and 411D and the third effect unit 411C between the second standby position and the second advance position different from the second standby position is required.

  The moving mechanism unit is a mechanism unit necessary for operating the first effect unit 411A, the second effect units 411B, 411D, and the third effect unit 411C in a predetermined mode. For example, the first effect unit 411A, It includes a first movable base 410A, a second movable base 410B, and a third movable base 410C that operably support the second effect parts 411B, 411D and the third effect part 411C. More specifically, a connection shaft 431 formed in the first movable base 410A, a connection groove 440 and a connection shaft 441 formed in the second movable base 410B, a connection groove 455 formed in the third movable base 410C, and the like. A connecting portion for connecting the movable bases, a power transmitting portion (for example, a gear portion) for transmitting the power of the second effect motor 425 to other members, and the like are included.

  These moving mechanism units are formed to operate the first effect unit 411A, the second effect units 411B, 411D, and the third effect unit 411C in a predetermined mode, and include the first effect unit 411A and the second effect. The parts 411B and 411D and the third effect part 411C have a poor appearance. Therefore, the first production section 411A, the second production sections 411B, 411D, and the third production section 411A, the second production sections 411B, 411D, and the third production section 411B, 411D and 411C are not damaged. The part 411C covers the front surfaces of the first movable base 410A, the second movable base 410B, and the third movable base 410C.

  However, as shown in FIGS. 11A and 12, the second directing units 411B and 411D cover the substantially right portion on the front surface of the second movable base 410B, but the left mechanical portion E (FIG. 11). (A), see white area in FIG. 17) is not covered. That is, the mechanical part E is a mechanical part necessary for operating the first effect part 411A, the second effect parts 411B, 411D and the third effect part 411C, but the first effect part at the second advance position. When 411A, the second effect parts 411B and 411D, and the third effect part 411C are in a predetermined form, they are unnecessary parts.

  FIGS. 16 (A), 16 (B) and 17 show the first effect part 411A, the second effect parts 411B, 411D and the third effect when the second movable body 402 moves from the second standby position to the second advance position. An operation mode of the rendering unit 411C is shown.

  As shown in FIG. 16 (A), when the second movable body 402 is at the second standby position, the first effect unit 411A, the second effect units 411B, 411D, and the third effect unit 411C decorate the base body 401. The front side is covered with a member 401B (a portion indicated by oblique lines in the drawing) and the like, so that it is difficult for the player to visually recognize the front side. As shown in FIG. 16B, when the second movable body 402 starts moving from the second standby position to the second advance position, each of the first effect parts 411A, the second effect parts 411B and 411D, and the third effect. The portion of the part 411C that has moved above the base body 401 becomes visible to the player.

  Here, the second effect unit 411D will be briefly described with reference to FIGS. As shown in FIG. 18 (A), the second rendering unit 411D is rotatable between a tilted position and a standing position via a rotating shaft 460 facing the front-rear direction on the front side of the second rendering unit 411B. It is pivoted on. A rotating member 461 that rotates around a rotating shaft 460 is integrally fixed to the back surface of the second effect portion 411D, and a connecting shaft 462 is provided to protrude from the periphery of the rotating member 461. I have.

  On the other hand, a slide plate 463 is provided in the second effect portion 411B so as to be movable in the vertical direction, and is inserted into a connection long hole 464 formed at the upper end of the slide plate 463. The slide plate 463 is constantly urged downward by a torsion spring 465 mounted around the rotation shaft 460, and when the second movable body 402 is located at the second standby position, FIG. As shown in (A), the lower end is arranged at an upper position by abutting on a predetermined portion of the base member 401A. When the second movable body 402 moves upward from the second standby position to the second advance position, as shown in FIG. 18B, the lower end is separated from a predetermined portion of the base member 401A, so that the torsion spring 465 is provided. And is moved downward to the lower position.

  As a result, the connecting shaft 462 rotates downward, so that the second rendering unit 411D tilts immediately after the second movable body 402 starts moving from the second standby position to the second advance position. Move from the position to the standing position (see FIG. 16B). Although not particularly shown, when the second movable body 402 moves from the second advance position to the second standby position, the lower end of the slide plate 463 comes into contact with a predetermined portion of the base member 401A and resists the urging force of the torsion spring 465. Then, the second effect part 411D moves from the standing position to the tilting position just before the second movable body 402 returns to the second standby position.

  As shown in FIG. 16B, when the second movable body 402 starts moving from the second standby position to the second advance position, and the second movable base 410B rises, the mechanical part E in the second movable base 410B. Becomes visible to the player. Then, as shown in FIG. 17, even when the second movable body 402 stops at the second advance position, the mechanical portion E of the second movable base 410B can be visually recognized by the player.

  As described above, when the first effect portion 411A, the second effect portions 411B, 411D, and the third effect portion 411C attain the predetermined form shown in FIG. 17 at the second advance position, the mechanical portion E of the second movable base 410B becomes Since it is an unnecessary part, the second effect part 411B cannot be expanded to cover the mechanism part E. However, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 16B, when the second movable body 402 is moving from the second standby position to the second advance position, or as shown in FIG. When the body 402 is stopped at the second advance position, the mechanical portion E of the second movable base 410B becomes visible to the player. That is, the mechanism portion E is a viewable portion that can be viewed by the player when the second movable body 402 is moving from the second standby position to the second advance position or when the second movable body 402 is stopped at the second advance position. It has been.

  As described above, when the second movable body 402 is moving from the second standby position to the second advance position or is stopped at the second advance position, the mechanical portion E of the second movable base 410B is connected to the player. In this embodiment, as described below, the second movable base is formed by using the first movable bodies 302L and 302R of the light guide plate device 500 and the first rendering unit 300, since the appearance is impaired if it becomes visible from the outside. The mechanism portion E of 410B is made difficult for the player to visually recognize.

  Next, the light guide plate device 500 will be described with reference to FIGS. 19A is a front view showing the light guide plate device, and FIG. 19B is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA of FIG. 20A is an enlarged front view showing a main part of the light guide plate device, FIG. 20B is a sectional view taken along the line BB of FIG. 20A, and FIG. 20C is an enlarged view showing a main part of FIG. . FIG. 21 is an explanatory diagram showing the relationship between the moving area of each movable body and the light guide plate device. Here, to facilitate understanding, a light-emitting region 506 described later is indicated by a dot (halftone dot), and a non-light-emitting region 507 having no dot (halftone dot) is indicated by white.

  As shown in FIGS. 19 and 20, the light guide plate device 500 includes a light guide plate 501 provided so as to close the opening 2 c of the game board 2, and a light guide for making light incident on the right end face 501 a of the light guide plate 501. An LED substrate 503 on which a plurality of light plate LEDs 502 are mounted, a condenser lens 504 for condensing light from the light guide plate LED 502 toward a right end face 501a of the light guide plate 501, and the light guide plate 501 and the LED substrate 503 integrated. And a frame member 505. The light guide plate device 500 may be fixed to the back of the game board 2 or may be fixed to the center decorative frame 51.

  The light guide plate 501 is a plate member formed of a material such as a transparent synthetic resin such as acrylic or polycarbonate having a predetermined front-rear width dimension (plate thickness = about 5 mm), as shown in FIG. , The effect display device 5, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R, and the second movable body 402.

  In addition, the light guide plate 501 is a light emitting region 506 as a first region that forms a predetermined light guide pattern that reflects light from the light guide plate LED 502 that has entered the inside from the right end face 501a forward and emits the light from the front surface. A light emitting region (see a halftone dot region in FIGS. 19A and 20A) that emits light from the right end face 501a of the light guide plate 501, and a light emitted from the right end face 501a. A non-light-emitting area 507 as a second area not forming a predetermined light guide pattern that reflects light from the light guide plate LED 502 forward and emits the light from the front, that is, a non-light-emitting area that does not emit light due to light incident inside the light guide plate 501. A light-emitting region (see a white region in FIGS. 19A and 20A).

  The light emitting region 506 is formed such that a radial figure appears at a substantially central position of the light guide plate 501. When light enters the inside of the light guide plate 501, the light emitting region 506 reflects the light and emits the light forward. Thus, a predetermined image is displayed on the light guide plate 501 by light emission.

  The non-light-emitting region 507 includes a circular non-light-emitting portion 507A provided at the center of the light-emitting region 506 and a plurality of non-light-emitting portions 507A provided on the left and right of the non-light-emitting portion 507A in the light-emitting region 506 and having a smaller diameter than the non-light-emitting portion 507A. A light-emitting portion 507B, a non-light-emitting portion 507C provided above the non-light-emitting portion 507A in the light-emitting region 506 and having a smaller diameter than the non-light-emitting portion 507A, and obliquely downward to the right of the non-light-emitting portion 507A in the light-emitting region 506. A plurality of non-light-emitting portions 507D arranged to form a circle with a smaller diameter than the non-light-emitting portion 507A, and a plurality of circles smaller than the non-light-emitting portion 507A arranged diagonally to the left of the non-light-emitting portion 507A in the light-emitting region 506. And a plurality of non-light-emitting portions 507F provided on the outer edge of the light guide plate 501 (outside the light-emitting region 506). Light inside the plate 501 is an area no to be light emitting display even when the incident. In particular, the non-light-emitting portions 507A to 507E are regions whose periphery is surrounded by the light-emitting region 506.

  As shown in FIG. 20C, the light emitting region 506 is in a fine uneven state (rough surface) so as to guide the incident light from the light guide plate LED 502 that has entered the inside from the right end face 501a and emit the light from the front. It is formed on the back side. Specifically, the light-emitting region 506 is formed in a concavo-convex state (rough surface) having a substantially semicircular shape with a constant pitch in a cross-sectional view when the traveling direction of light is viewed from the side. In FIG. 20C, an uneven state (rough surface) is illustrated in an enlarged manner to facilitate understanding. However, the actual light emitting region 506 has fine irregularities of a size that is difficult to see with the naked eye. It is in a state.

  When light enters the inside from the right end face 501a of the light guide plate 501, a predetermined image (still image) is displayed on the light guide plate 501 by a dot pattern composed of a plurality of concave portions 510 formed in the light emitting region 506 (FIG. 19 (A)). That is, the light emitting region 506 as a first region for forming a predetermined light guide pattern for reflecting the light from the light guide plate LED 502 that has entered the inside from the right end surface 501a forward and emitting the light from the front surface is formed by the plurality of recesses 510. Is formed as a second area where a predetermined light guide pattern is not formed, in which the light from the light guide plate LED 502 that has entered inside from the right end face 501a is reflected forward and emitted from the front. The light emitting area 507 is an area where a dot pattern composed of the plurality of recesses 510 is not formed. Further, in the present embodiment, a predetermined image (figure) is exemplified as display information that can be displayed by the light guide plate 501, but in addition to this, decoration such as a picture, a character, a symbol, a pattern, or a pattern is also provided. Other display information may be displayed.

  When the light guide plate 501 does not receive light from the right end face 501a, the entire light guide plate 501 including the light-emitting region 506 is in a colorless and transparent state, and the display image of the rear effect display device 5, The movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 can be viewed (see through) from the front of the light guide plate 501. Further, when light is incident from the right end face 501a, the light emitting region 506 emits light, but the portion other than the light emitting region 506 remains colorless and transparent.

  In the present embodiment, the light emitting region 506 is formed in an uneven state having a substantially semicircular shape. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the light emitting region 506 may be formed in a light guide plate by a stamper or injection. A configuration may be adopted in which a concave / convex portion is provided on the back surface (rear surface) of 501. In addition, the reflection portion is formed by a silk printing method in which reflective dots are printed on an acrylic plate with white ink, a sticking dot method in which an acrylic plate and a reflective plate are attached with a dot-shaped adhesive, a groove processing method, or the like. May be.

  In the present embodiment, the shape of each concave and convex portion of the light emitting region 506 on the back surface (rear surface) of the light guide plate 501 is a substantially semicircular shape in a cross-sectional view, but the present invention is not limited to this. The light emitting region 506 can be variously modified as long as the light emitting region 506 has a reflecting surface capable of reflecting light toward the front (front surface) such as a substantially triangular cross section.

  The condensing lens 504 is formed in a long plate shape extending in the vertical direction by a translucent member such as acrylic or polycarbonate. On the surface of the condenser lens 504 on the light guide plate 501 side, a plurality of semicircular protrusions 504A swelling toward the light guide plate 501 in a front view are formed continuously in the vertical direction. The condenser lens 504 is constituted by a single member in which a plurality of convex portions 504A are provided integrally. Each convex portion 504A is formed one by one corresponding to each of the light guide plate LEDs 502.

  In addition, the protrusion 504A is not limited to one-to-one correspondence with the light guide plate LED 502, and for example, one protrusion 504A may correspond to two or more light guide plate LEDs 502. Further, the condensing lens 504 is not limited to a single member in which the plurality of convex portions 504A are provided integrally, but may include a plurality of condensing lenses separately formed corresponding to the light guide plate LED 502. May be used.

  As shown in FIG. 20C, the front-rear width of the condenser lens 504 on the light guide plate 501 side is smaller than the front-rear width of the condenser lens 504 on the light guide plate LED 502 side. In addition, since the front-back width of the condenser lens 504 on the light guide plate 501 side is substantially the same as the front-rear width of the light receiving surface of the light guide plate 501, light emitted from the condenser lens 504 is diffused in the front-rear direction. The light is incident on the light guide plate 501 without any light leakage.

  The front surface of the condenser lens 504 is a flat inclined surface that is gradually inclined rearward from the light guide plate LED 502 side toward the light guide plate 501 side, and the rear surface of the condenser lens 504 is the light guide plate from the light guide plate LED 502 side. It is a flat inclined surface that is gradually inclined toward the front side toward the 501 side. That is, the condenser lens 504 is formed in a tapered shape in which the plate thickness gradually decreases from the light guide plate LED 502 side to the light guide plate 501 side.

  Further, a slight gap is provided between the condenser lens 504 and the light guide plate 501. For example, the interval of the gap is so large that the condensing lens 504 and the light guide plate 501 do not come into contact with each other even when vibration occurs during transportation or use of the pachinko gaming machine 1. Thus, it is possible to prevent the condenser lens 504 and the light guide plate 501 from being damaged by vibration generated during transportation and use of the pachinko gaming machine 1.

  Next, a light guide state of light emitted from the light guide plate LED 502 will be described. The light emitted from each light guide plate LED 502 enters the condenser lens 504. Here, since the entrance surface of the condenser lens 504 is formed in a curved shape so as to form a lens surface, even if the directivity of the light emitted from the light guide plate LED 502 is high, the light enters the condenser lens 504. Is diffused radially in the left and right direction in the condenser lens 504. Then, the light incident on the condenser lens 504 is refracted rightward and emitted when passing through the inner curved lens surface.

  Thereby, even when the directivity of the light emitted from the light guide plate LED 502 is high, the light emitted from the light guide plate LED 502 can be diffused to some extent radially by the condenser lens 504, and the light emitting area in the light guide plate 501 can be diffused. Can be expanded. Further, since the light emitted from the condenser lens 504 is guided in the horizontal direction (since it is suppressed from spreading radially), only the portion corresponding to each light guide plate LED 502 can emit light.

  Also, the light incident on the condenser lens 504 from the light guide plate LED 502 is condensed toward a substantially central position in the front-rear direction while repeating total reflection in the front-rear direction. The light is emitted from the end face on the 501 side (the portion where the front-rear width is smallest).

  With such a configuration, the light from the light guide plate LED 502 can be collected and guided to the light guide plate 501 without being diffused in the front-rear direction. In particular, even when the front-rear width of the light emitting surface of the light guide plate LED 502 is larger than the front-rear width of the condenser lens 504 on the light guide plate LED 502 side, light from the light guide plate LED 502 is not diffused in the front-rear direction. Since the light can be guided to the light guide 501, the light from the light guide plate LED 502 can be prevented from being diffused to the surroundings.

  Although not specifically shown, for example, even when a plurality of light guide plate LEDs 502 are arranged in the front-rear direction, the front-rear width of the light guide plate LED 502 of the condenser lens 504 is increased according to the front-rear width of the light guide plate LED 502. Accordingly, the light from the light guide plate LED 502 can be made incident on the condenser lens 504 without diffusing in the front-back direction. Therefore, even when the front and rear width of the light emitting region of the light guide plate LED 502 is larger than the front and rear width of the light guide plate 501, the light from the light guide plate LED 502 is condensed without diffusing in the front and rear direction and is condensed on the light guide plate 501. I can guide you.

  When the light from the condenser lens 504 is guided into the light guide plate 501 and reaches the light emitting area 506, the light is reflected toward the front side (the player side) in the light emitting area 506. As a result, when viewed from the player, the light-emitting region 506 of the light guide plate 501 emits light by reflected light, so that a figure represented by a halftone dot in FIG. 19A is displayed on the front surface of the light guide plate 501. Become like The light guide plate 501 may be configured to display an image such as a predetermined character or figure on the light guide plate 501 by emitting light from the portion corresponding to the light emitting region 506 by the reflected light.

  As shown in FIG. 19B, when viewed from the player (in the front-rear direction), the effect display device 5 is arranged at the back, and the light guide plate device 500 is arranged at the front. When viewed from the player, the effect display device 5 has a horizontally long rectangular shape. For example, the effect display device 5 uses a liquid crystal display device including a liquid crystal panel. For example, as a liquid crystal panel, a twisted nematic mode (TN mode), an in-plane switching mode (IPS mode), a vertical alignment mode (VA mode), a ferroelectric liquid crystal mode, an antiferroelectric liquid crystal mode, a homogeneous liquid crystal mode, Liquid crystal panels of various modes such as a guest-host liquid crystal mode, a polymer dispersed liquid crystal mode, and a holographic polymer dispersed liquid crystal mode may be used. Note that the effect display device 5 is not limited to a liquid crystal display device, and may use an EL display device such as an organic EL display device or an inorganic EL display device.

  As shown in FIG. 21, the light emitting area 506 includes a moving area E1 of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R operating on the back side of the light guide plate 501, a moving area E2 of the second movable body 402, and the The display area is formed so as to be superimposed on the front and rear with respect to most of the display area. The moving regions E1 and E2 are hatched regions surrounded by a chain line in FIG.

  Specifically, the moving area E1 of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R is an area until the first movable bodies 302L and 302R move from the first standby position to the first advance position, and the moving area of the second movable body 402. E2 is an area until the second movable body 402 moves from the second standby position to the second advance position, and is an area including the first standby position and the first advance position, and the second standby position and the second advance position. is there. When light is incident from the right end face 501a, the light guide plate 501 is in a state in which the light emitting region 506 emits light, and the display image of the rear effect display device 5, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R, and the second movable body 402 are displayed. From the front of the light guide plate 501, it is difficult or impossible to see (see through) from the front. That is, when the light emitting region 506 emits light, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 are visible from the front of the light guide plate 501 regardless of whether the movable operation is being performed or the operation is completed. (See through) Difficult or invisible.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 21, when the first movable bodies 302L, 302R are located at the first advance position, the plurality of movable bodies LEDs 307L, 307R of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R are connected to the light guide plate 501. On the back surface, it is arranged at a position corresponding to the plurality of non-light-emitting portions 507B in the non-light-emitting region 507. Also, when the second movable body 402 is located at the second advance position, the plurality of movable body LEDs 407A of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R are located on the back surface of the light guide plate 501 and the plurality of non-light emitting areas 507 The movable LED 407B is disposed at a position corresponding to the non-light emitting unit 507A, and the plurality of movable LEDs 407C are disposed at a position corresponding to the non-light emitting unit 507E. The body LED 407D is arranged at a position corresponding to the non-light emitting portion 507C. That is, when the first movable bodies 302L, 302R are located at the first advance position and the second movable body 402 is located at the second advance position, the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D are connected to the non-light-emitting portions 507A to 507D. It becomes visible from the front through 507E (see FIGS. 28 and 29).

  Note that the display image of the effect display device 5 is arranged so as to partially overlap behind the moving area E1 of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the moving area E2 of the second movable body 402.

Show.

  In the present embodiment, an example of an effect performed by the effect control CPU 120 when the fluctuation pattern specified from the fluctuation pattern designation command received from the game control microcomputer 100 is a super reach fluctuation pattern. The effect here means the operation effect of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402, the light guide plate effect (light emission effect) by the light guide plate device 500, the first movable bodies 302L, 302R, and the second movable body 402. Is a combined effect including an effect by each movable body LED provided on the display device, and a display effect by the effect display device 5.

  The effect control CPU 120 determines the execution of the composite effect based on the reception of the change pattern designation command (super-reach change pattern) from the game control microcomputer 100, and performs the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second An effect mode such as an operation effect of the movable body 402, a light guide plate effect by the light guide plate device 500, an effect by the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D, and a display effect by the effect display device 5 is determined. Start the variable display of the effect symbols. In this embodiment, the execution of the composite effect is performed at a rate of 100% regardless of whether the variation pattern designation command received from the game control microcomputer 100 is a variation pattern per super reach or a variation pattern out of super reach. Although the determination is made, the presence or absence of execution may be determined.

  Specifically, the ROM 121 included in the effect control board 12 includes, for example, a movable body movement mode determination table shown in FIG. 22A, a light guide plate light emission mode determination table shown in FIG. 22B, and FIG. A moving body LED light emission mode determination table shown in FIG. 22, an effect display device display mode determination table shown in FIG.

  The movable body movement mode determination table is a table that determines the movement mode of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 in the composite effect.

  Specifically, the movable body movement mode determination table stops at the first standby position and the second standby position without moving the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 to the first advance position and the second advance position. There is a stop pattern that keeps the state as it is, and a movement pattern that moves the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 to the first advance position and the second advance position. When the stop pattern is determined, even when the movement start timing of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 in the movement pattern is reached, the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body An image in which the first movable body 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 are moved to the first advance position and the second advance position by the effect display device 5 while the 402 is stopped at the first standby position and the second standby position. An effect of displaying only P is performed (see FIG. 31B).

  Note that the movable body movement mode determination table of the present embodiment describes an example in which only the stop pattern and the movement pattern have a movement mode. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a plurality of movement modes are provided. Is also good. For example, a first movement pattern for moving the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 to a first advance position and a second advance position, and a first movable body 302L, 302R and a second movable body 402 are defined as a first movable pattern. , A second movement pattern for moving to a position between the second standby position and the first and second advance positions.

  The stop pattern and the movement pattern are determined according to the display result (outlier, non-probable variable hit, probable variable hit) of the variable display specified by the variable pattern designation command from the game control microcomputer 100 in the movable body moving mode determination table. The determined ratio is different.

  Specifically, in the case of a miss, the stop pattern is determined as the movement mode at a rate of 80%, and the movement pattern is determined at a rate of 20%. In the case of a non-probable jackpot, the stop pattern is determined as a movement mode at a rate of 20%, and the movement pattern is determined at a rate of 80%. In the case of a probable jackpot, the stop pattern is determined at a rate of 10%. The moving mode is determined, and the moving pattern is determined at a rate of 90%. That is, in the case of a miss, the stop pattern is determined at a higher rate than the movement pattern, and in the case of a big hit, the movement pattern is determined at a higher rate than the stop pattern. In other words, in the movable body movement mode, the expectation of the big hit is higher in the movement pattern than in the stop pattern. In the case of a non-probable variable hit, the stop pattern is determined at a higher rate than the moving pattern. In the case of the positive change, the move pattern is determined at a higher rate than the stop pattern. In other words, the moving pattern has a higher degree of expectation of the probability change jackpot than the stop pattern.

  Subsequently, the light guide plate light emission mode determination table will be described. The light guide plate light emission mode determination table is a table for determining the light emission mode of the light guide plate device 500 in the composite effect.

  More specifically, the light guide plate light emission mode determination table has a white pattern that causes the light guide plate 501 to emit white light, a red pattern that causes the light guide plate 501 to emit red light, and a flash pattern that causes the light guide plate 501 to blink and emit light. As described later, this light guide plate light emission mode is used for a period from before the movement of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 (before the start of the movement pattern in the movable body movement aspect determination table) to after the movement is completed. (See FIGS. 23A and 23B). When the stop pattern is determined in the movable body movement mode determination table, the stop pattern is performed for a predetermined period after the effect display device 5 displays the images of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 (see FIG. )reference).

  The light guide plate light emission mode determination table of the present embodiment describes an example having a white pattern, a red pattern, and a flash pattern. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a plurality of light emission modes may be provided. I just need. For example, the light emission mode may have a blue pattern, a green pattern, a purple pattern, a rainbow pattern, or the like. Further, the flash pattern of the present embodiment is described as an embodiment in which the light guide plate 501 blinks in red, but is not limited to this, and may emit light in other colors.

  These white pattern, red pattern, and flash pattern are the display results of the fluctuation display specified by the fluctuation pattern designation command from the game control microcomputer 100 in the light guide plate light emission mode determination table (outlier, non-probable variable hit, probable variable hit). The ratio determined according to is different.

  Specifically, in the case of a loss, a white pattern is determined as a light emission mode at a rate of 80%, a red pattern is determined at a rate of 18%, and a flash pattern is determined at a rate of 2%. In the case of a non-probable variable hit, a white pattern is determined as a light emission mode at a rate of 20%, a red pattern is determined at a rate of 60%, and a flash pattern is determined at a rate of 20%. Further, in the case of the probability change jackpot, the white pattern is determined as the light emission mode at a rate of 2%, the red pattern is determined at a rate of 18%, and the flash pattern is determined at a rate of 80%.

  That is, in the case of a loss, the white pattern is determined at a higher rate than the red pattern and the flash pattern, and in the case of a big hit, the red pattern and the flash pattern are determined at a higher rate than the white pattern. . In other words, in the light emission mode, the red pattern and the flash pattern have a higher expectation of a big hit than the white pattern.

  Also, in the case of a non-probable variable hit, the red pattern is determined at a higher rate than the flash pattern, and for the probable variable hit, the flash pattern is determined at a higher rate than the red pattern. In other words, the flash pattern has a higher degree of expectation of the probability change hit than the red pattern.

  Next, the movable body LED light emission mode determination table will be described. The movable body LED light emission mode determination table is a table that determines the light emission mode of the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D in the composite effect. Note that the movable body LED emission mode determination table is a table used to determine only when the movement pattern is determined using the above-described movable body movement mode determination table, and when the stop pattern is determined, the movable body LED 307L, 307R and 407A to 407D are not used because they do not emit light.

  Specifically, the movable body LED light emission mode determination table includes a white pattern that causes the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, and 407A to 407D to emit white light, a red pattern that causes the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, and 407A to 407D to emit red light, and a movable body. And a flash pattern for causing the LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D to blink. When the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 are determined to be the movement patterns in the movable body movement mode determination table, these movable body LED emission modes are appropriately determined from a white pattern, a red pattern, and a flash pattern. Is done. Note that, as described later, the movable body LED light emission mode is performed for a predetermined period when the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 move to the first advance position and the second advance position (after the movement ends). (See FIGS. 23A and 23B).

  Although the movable body LED light emission mode determination table of the present embodiment describes an example having a white pattern, a red pattern, and a flash pattern, the present invention is not limited to this, and has a plurality of light emission modes. Just do it. For example, the light emission mode may have a blue pattern, a green pattern, a purple pattern, a rainbow pattern, or the like.

  The white pattern, the red pattern, and the flash pattern in the movable body LED emission mode determination table are displayed in the movable body LED emission mode determination table as display results of a variation display specified by a variation pattern designation command from the game control microcomputer 100 ( Outlier, non-probable big hit, probable big hit).

  Specifically, in the case of a loss, a white pattern is determined as a light emission mode at a rate of 80%, a red pattern is determined at a rate of 18%, and a flash pattern is determined at a rate of 2%. In the case of a non-probable variable hit, a white pattern is determined as a light emission mode at a rate of 20%, a red pattern is determined at a rate of 60%, and a flash pattern is determined at a rate of 20%. Further, in the case of the probability change jackpot, the white pattern is determined as the light emission mode at a rate of 2%, the red pattern is determined at a rate of 18%, and the flash pattern is determined at a rate of 80%.

  That is, in the case of a loss, the white pattern is determined at a higher rate than the red pattern and the flash pattern, and in the case of a big hit, the red pattern and the flash pattern are determined at a higher rate than the white pattern. . In other words, in the light emission mode, the red pattern and the flash pattern have a higher expectation of a big hit than the white pattern.

  Also, in the case of a non-probable variable hit, the red pattern is determined at a higher rate than the flash pattern, and for the probable variable hit, the flash pattern is determined at a higher rate than the red pattern. In other words, the flash pattern has a higher degree of expectation of the probability change hit than the red pattern.

  Next, the effect display device display mode determination table will be described. The effect display device display mode determination table is a table for determining the display mode of the effect display device 5 in the composite effect.

  Specifically, the effect display device display mode determination table includes an effect-free pattern in which no effect image is displayed by the effect display device 5, an effect A pattern in which the effect image is displayed in white by the effect display device 5, and an effect display device 5. And an effect B pattern for displaying an effect image in red. As described later, these effect display device display modes are performed for a predetermined period when the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 or images thereof move to the first advance position (after the movement ends) (FIG. 23 (A), (B) and FIG. 24 (B)).

  Although the effect display device display mode determination table of the present embodiment describes an example having an effect-less pattern, an effect A pattern, and an effect B pattern, the present invention is not limited to this. May be plural. For example, the display mode may have a blue pattern, a green pattern, a purple pattern, a rainbow pattern, or the like. In addition, as for the display mode, a plurality of patterns having different designs and the like as well as colors may be prepared.

  The effect-less pattern, the effect A pattern, and the effect B pattern are displayed in the effect display device display mode determination table in the display results (variable, non-variable) of the variable display specified by the variable pattern designation command from the game control microcomputer 100. (Variable jackpot, probability variable jackpot) are different.

  Specifically, in the case of a loss, the pattern without effect is determined as a display mode at a rate of 80%, the effect A pattern is determined at a rate of 18%, and the effect B pattern is determined at a rate of 2%. . In the case of a non-probable variable jackpot, a pattern without effect is determined as a display mode at a rate of 20%, an effect A pattern is determined at a rate of 60%, and an effect B pattern is determined at a rate of 20%. Also, in the case of the probability change jackpot, the pattern without effect is determined as a display mode at a rate of 2%, the effect A pattern is determined at a rate of 18%, and the effect B flash pattern is determined at a rate of 80%.

  That is, in the case of a loss, the effect-less pattern is determined at a higher rate than the effect-A pattern and the effect-B pattern, and in the case of a big hit, the effect-A pattern and the effect-B pattern are larger than the effect-less pattern. Determined at a high rate. In other words, in the display mode, the effect A pattern and the effect B pattern have a higher expectation of a big hit than the no effect pattern.

  Also, in the case of a non-probable variable hit, the effect A pattern is determined at a higher rate than the effect B pattern, and for the probable variable hit, the effect B pattern is determined at a higher rate than the effect A pattern. You. In other words, the effect B pattern has a higher degree of expectation of the probability change hit than the effect A pattern.

  Next, the flow of an actual composite effect will be described. First, a description will be given of a composite effect pattern 1 which is a mode of the big hit shown in FIG. Here, pattern 1 of the composite effect is determined as a movement pattern in the movable body movement mode determination table, determined as a red pattern in the light guide plate light emission mode determination table, and determined as a flash pattern in the movable body LED emission mode determination table. It is assumed that the effect B pattern is determined in the effect display device display mode determination table.

  First, the effect control CPU 120 determines various effect modes based on the reception of the change pattern designation command (super reach change pattern) from the game control microcomputer 100, and thereafter, the effect display device 5 displays the effect symbols. Start variable display. Then, at a predetermined timing, the fluctuation display state of the effect symbol is set to a predetermined reach state (see FIG. 25A).

  At this time, as shown in FIG. 25B, the light guide plate 501 is turned off, that is, the light emitting region 506 does not emit light forward and the entire light guide plate 501 including the light emitting region 506 is colorless. It is in a transparent state, and the display image of the rear effect display device 5, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R, and the second movable body 402 can be visually recognized (transparent) from the front of the light guide plate 501. Further, as shown in FIG. 25 (C), the effect display device 5 performs a variable display of the effect symbol (a predetermined reach state). Further, as shown in FIG. 25D, the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 are located at the first standby position and the second standby position, and have the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A. 407D are off.

  Next, although not shown, the effect control CPU 120 sets the variable display state of the effect symbol on the effect display device 5 to the reach state, starts the reach effect separately from the variable display, and then supercharges the reach effect. It is developed into an effect (for example, displaying an image in which the character performs a battle). Then, after the super reach effect is started, at a predetermined timing (for example, a timing for completing the battle, etc.), an operation promoting effect for displaying an image prompting the operation of the stick controller 31A or the push button 31B is executed. The effect control CPU 120 receives the operation of the stick controller 31A (or the push button 31B) during the period in which the operation promoting effect is being executed or the operation valid period without accepting the operation of the stick controller 31A (or the push button 31B). Is completed, that is, when the condition for starting the composite effect is satisfied, the composite effect pattern 1 (the composite effect based on the effect pattern 1) is started.

  In the pattern 1 of the combined effect, the effect control CPU 120 receives the operation of the stick controller 31A (or the push button 31B) or the operation of the stick controller 31A (or the push button 31B) during the operation promoting effect. When the operation validity period is terminated without receiving the instruction, that is, when the start condition of the composite effect is satisfied Ta1, first, the light guide plate LED 502 is turned on to execute the light guide plate effect (FIGS. 23A and 26A). reference).

  More specifically, in the light emission effect by the light guide plate 501, as shown in FIG. 26B, the light guide plate 501 is turned on, that is, by the dot pattern composed of the plurality of recesses 510 formed in the light emitting region 506. A predetermined image is displayed on the light guide plate 501 by the light being emitted forward and the light emitting area 506 emitting light, whereby the display image of the rear effect display device 5 and the first movable body 302L, At 302R, the second movable body 402 is in a state where it is difficult to visually recognize (see through) the light from the front of the light guide plate 501. Further, as shown in FIG. 26 (C), the effect display device 5 is turned off, that is, in a state where no voltage is applied, the display screen is in a dark display (black display) state. , And no effect effect is performed. Further, as shown in FIG. 26 (D), the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 are located at the first standby position and the second standby position, and have the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A. 407D are off.

  Next, the first effect motor 311 and the second effect motor 425 are driven to move the first movable bodies 302L and 302R from the first standby position to the first advance position, and move the second movable body 402 from the second standby position to the first An advance operation for moving to the second advance position is started (see FIG. 23A, FIG. 27A and FIG. 28A).

  Specifically, at the time of the advance operation of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 (a period from the start operation start time Ta2 to the advance operation end time Ta3), FIGS. 27B and 28 ( As shown in FIG. 27B, while the light guide plate 501 continues to be turned on, the effect display device 5 continues to be turned off, as shown in FIGS. 27C and 28C. . In addition, as shown in FIGS. 27D and 28D, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 gradually move toward the first advance position and the second advance position, The movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D are off.

  Note that, as shown in FIG. 28A, at the end of the advance operation of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402, Ta3 (when the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 are in the first advance position). And when it is located at the second advance position), the plurality of movable body LEDs 307L and 307R of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R are arranged at positions corresponding to the non-light emitting portions 507B on the back surface of the light guide plate 501, The plurality of movable body LEDs 407A to 407D of the two movable bodies 402 are arranged at positions corresponding to each of the plurality of non-light emitting portions 507A, 507C, 507D, and 507E on the back surface of the light guide plate 501.

  As described above, when the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 are in the advancing operation (the period from the advancing operation start time Ta2 to the advancing operation end time Ta3), the light guide plate 501 has a predetermined image ( When the (still image) is displayed by light emission, since the light guide plate 501 is disposed in front of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402, the light guide plate 501 is emitted forward from the light guide plate 501, that is, to the player side. Due to the light, it becomes extremely difficult for the player to visually recognize the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 behind the light guide plate 501. In other words, it is difficult for the player to grasp the state (whether or not moving or the manner of movement) of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402. The state of the second movable body 402 can be interesting.

  The mechanism part E, which is a part of the second movable body 402, becomes visible to the player when moving from the second standby position to the second advance position, but is emitted forward from the light guide plate 501. The light makes it difficult for the player to see. Further, when the second movable body 402 reaches the second advance position, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R are arranged on the left and right sides of the second rendering unit 411B in the second movable body 402. In particular, since the left first movable body 302L moves so as to overlap the front side of the mechanical portion E which is a part of the second movable base 410B, the mechanical portion E is concealed by the first movable body 302L and the player Becomes invisible.

  Further, when the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 advance, the light guide plate 501 is in a lit state (light emission effect), and the effect display device 5 and the movable object LEDs 307L, 307R. , 407A to 407D are turned off, so that the effect of the light emitting effect of the light guide plate 501 and the reduction in the visibility of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 are synergistically obtained. Can be

  Next, the effect control CPU 120 executes the light emission effect by the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D from the end time Ta3 of the advance operation of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 (FIG. 23A and FIG. 29A).

  More specifically, at the start of the light-emission effect by the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, and 407A to 407D, the light guide plate 501 continues to be lit as shown in FIG. As shown in (5), the effect display device 5 continues to be turned off. Further, as shown in FIG. 29D, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 maintain the state of being located at the first advance position and the second advance position, and have the movable body LED 307L. , 307R, 407A to 407D are lit.

  When the light-emitting effect is performed by the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D, the light emitted forward from the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D emits a plurality of non-light-emissions respectively corresponding from the rear surface of the light guide plate 501. The light is emitted to the front side (player side) via the portions 507A to 507E. That is, at this time, not only the light emitting region 506 of the light guide plate 501 emits light by the light emitting effect of the light guide plate 501, but also the non-light emitting portions 507A to 507E of the light guide plate 501 by the light emitting effect by the movable LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D. It emits light, and the effect can be enhanced as a composite light emitting effect using the light guide plate 501 and the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D.

  Next, the effect control CPU 120 ends the light emission effect by the light guide plate 501, and performs an effect display (display effect) by the effect display device 5 from the light emission effect end time Ta4 by the light guide plate 501 (FIG. 23A and FIG. 30 (A)).

  More specifically, when the effect display device 5 starts displaying the effect, as shown in FIG. 30B, the light guide plate 501 is turned off. Further, as shown in FIG. 30C, the effect display device 5 is in an effect display state. Further, as shown in FIG. 30D, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 maintain the state of being located at the first advance position and the second advance position, and have the movable body LED 307L. , 307R, and 407A to 407D maintain the lit state.

  Note that the effect display is to display an effect image (for example, an image of lightning, a logo, a number, or the like) that is a predetermined image on the effect display device 5. In an area that does not overlap with the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402, the area becomes visible to the player.

  By terminating the light emission effect by the light guide plate 501 in this manner, the player can visually recognize the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 located at the first advance position and the second advance position. That is, in the period from the time Ta1 when the start condition of the composite effect is satisfied to the time Ta4 when the light-emitting effect ends (light-emitting effect period of the light guide plate 501), the light emitted forward from the light guide plate 501 causes the light emitted behind the light guide plate 501. Since the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 were difficult to see from the player, it was difficult for the player to grasp the states of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402. When the light emission effect by the light guide plate 501 ends, the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 located at the first advance position and the second advance position become visible.

  That is, the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402, which should have been in the first standby position and the second standby position when the light emission effect by the light guide plate 501 is started, are stopped when the light emission effect is completed. The player suddenly appears at the first advance position and the second advance position, that is, the player does not know that the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 have moved, which may surprise the player. it can.

  When the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 located at the first advance position and the second advance position become visible, the first movable body 302L is displayed on the effect display of the effect display device 5. , 302R and the second movable body 402, so that the effect of the combined effect is improved.

  The effect control CPU 120 performs a light emission effect by the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D and an effect display by the effect display device 5 for a predetermined period, and then emits light by the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D. And the effect display by the effect display device 5 are terminated. Then, the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 are moved to the first standby position and the second standby position from the time Ta5 when the light emitting effect by the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D and the effect display by the effect display device 5 end. The evacuation operation for evacuation is performed for a predetermined period until the evacuation operation end time Ta6, and the composite effect is ended.

  After that, the effect control CPU 120 stops and displays a predetermined effect symbol (for example, “7-7-7”) in the effect symbol display area 5L, 5C, 5R of the effect display device 5 to determine the big hit. Notify.

  Next, a description will be given of a composite effect pattern 2 which is another mode in the case of the big hit shown in FIG. Here, the pattern 2 of the composite effect is determined as a movement pattern in the movable body movement mode determination table, determined as a flash pattern in the light guide plate light emission mode determination table, and determined as a flash pattern in the movable body LED emission mode determination table. It is assumed that the effect B pattern is determined in the effect display device display mode determination table.

  As shown in FIG. 23B, in the composite effect pattern 2, the light guide plate 501 extends from the time Tb2 at which the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 advance to the time Tb4 at which the light emission effect ends. The light emission effect by the light guide plate 501 in a flash pattern in which the light is repeatedly turned off and turned on is continuously executed. By doing in this way, the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 at the time of the advancing operation and at the end of the advancing operation are short-term when the light guide plate 501 is turned off in the light emission effect by the light guide plate 501 of the flash pattern. You will be able to see it. The intervals between turning off and lighting of the light guide plate 501 may be appropriately set. For example, the intervals between turning off and turning on the light guide plate 501 may have different lengths.

  Next, a description will be given of a composite effect pattern 3 which is one mode in the case of a loss shown in FIG. Here, the pattern 3 of the composite effect is determined to be a stop pattern in the movable body movement mode determination table and a white pattern in the light guide plate light emission mode determination table. When the stop pattern is determined in the movable body moving mode determination table, the light emitting effect of the movable body LED is not performed, and the display effect of the effect display device is not performed. In other words, the movable body LED emission mode is not determined in the movable body LED emission mode determination table.

  In the pattern 3 of the composite effect, first, at the time Tc1 when the start condition of the composite effect is satisfied, the light guide plate LED 502 is turned on to execute the light guide plate effect (see FIG. 31A). At this time, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 do not actually operate, and are waiting at the first standby position and the second standby position. Then, at the end of the light emission effect Tc4 by the light guide plate 501, the effect display device 5 displays the image P of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 located at the first advance position and the second advance position. (See FIG. 31B).

  As described above, patterns 1 to 3, which are examples of the composite effect, have different degrees of expectation of winning. Specifically, the big hit expectation degree of the composite effect pattern 1 and the pattern 2 is higher than the big hit expectation degree of the composite effect pattern 3, and especially, the big hit expectation degree of the composite effect pattern 2 is the pattern of the composite effect. 1 and pattern 3 are higher. As described above, since the big hit expectation varies depending on the type of the composite effect, the player can have expectations according to the type of the composite effect to be executed, and the interest can be improved. Specifically, when the fluctuation display result is a big hit, the moving pattern of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 is determined at a higher rate than in the case of a loss, and the light guide plate LED 502 The red pattern or the flash pattern is determined for the light emission mode of the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, and 407A to 407D, and the effect A and B are determined for the display mode of the effect display device 5. Is expected, a big hit can be expected even when a stop pattern, a white pattern, and a pattern without effect appear with a low degree of expectation.

  Further, there are the following modified examples of the pattern 2 of the composite effect. As shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 23B, the effect display device 5 may display the effect when the light guide plate 501 is turned off in the light emission effect. In other words, in the light emission effect of the light guide plate 501, the blinking of the light guide plate 501 and the blinking of the effect display of the effect display device 5 may be repeated.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 32A, when the light guide plate 501 is turned on in the light emission effect, the effect display of the effect display device 5 is turned off. Thereby, the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 at the time of the advance operation are in a state in which it is difficult to visually recognize or invisible. Further, as shown in FIG. 32B, when the light guide plate 501 is turned off in the light emission effect, the effect display of the effect display device 5 is turned on. Thereby, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 at the time of the advance operation can be visually recognized. As described above, the blinking of the light guide plate 501 and the blinking of the effect display of the effect display device 5 are repeated, so that the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 that perform the advancing operation are instantaneously and continuously difficult to visually recognize. Alternatively, it is possible to perform an effect that repeats an invisible state and a visible state, thereby expanding the range of the composite effect. Further, when the effect display of the effect display device 5 is turned on when the light guide plate 501 is turned off in the light emission effect, the first movable members 302L and 302R and the second movable member 402 during the advance operation can be visually recognized. In addition, the light of the effect display device 5 is backlight when viewed from the player, the surroundings of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 in front become brighter, and the visibility from the player is reduced. That is, only the silhouettes of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 become visible. In this case, it is preferable that the effect display image of the effect display device 5 has a larger light amount than the effect display image of the embodiment.

  As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 as an embodiment of the present invention, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402, which are movably provided, and the first movable bodies 302L and 302R. And a light guide plate 501 that forms a predetermined light guide pattern on the player side in the depth direction that overlaps at least a part of the movement areas E1 and E2 of the second movable body 402. The first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the Since the light-emitting effect of causing the light-emitting region 506 of the light guide plate 501 to emit light can be executed in at least a part of the moving period of the second movable body 402, the light-emitting effect by the light guide plate 501 is executed, so that the first movable body is executed. Since it is difficult to visually recognize the movement of the 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402, the effect can be improved.

  Specifically, during the advance operation of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 (a period from the start operation start time Ta2 to the advance operation end time Ta3), a predetermined image is formed on the light guide plate 501. When (still image) is displayed by light emission, since the light guide plate 501 is disposed in front of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402, the light guide plate 501 is located forward from the light guide plate 501, that is, on the player side. The emitted light makes it difficult for the player to visually recognize the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 behind the light guide plate 501. In other words, it is difficult for the player to grasp the state in which the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 are moving, so that the player can determine which of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 It can be interesting to see if it is in such a state. Then, when the light emission effect by the light guide plate 501 is completed, the player can visually recognize the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402, and the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 Since the state can be grasped, the player can be surprised.

  Further, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 as an embodiment of the present invention, the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 movably provided, and the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body are provided. A light guide plate 501 for forming a predetermined light guide pattern on the player side in the depth direction overlapping at least a part of the movement areas E1 and E2 of the body 402, and a movement area of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402; An effect display device 5 in which a display area is arranged so as to overlap at least a part of E1 and E2, and at least a part of a moving period of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402. Since the light-emitting effect of causing the light-emitting region 506 of the light guide plate 501 to emit light can be executed, the light-emitting effect by the light guide plate 501 is executed, so that the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and The movement of the second movable member 402 is less visible, it is possible to improve the performance effect.

  Specifically, during the advance operation of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 (a period from the start operation start time Ta2 to the advance operation end time Ta3), a predetermined image is formed on the light guide plate 501. When (still image) is displayed by light emission, since the light guide plate 501 is disposed in front of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402, the light guide plate 501 is located forward from the light guide plate 501, that is, on the player side. The emitted light makes it difficult for the player to visually recognize the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 behind the light guide plate 501. In other words, it is difficult for the player to grasp the state in which the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 are moving, so that the player can determine which of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 It can be interesting to see if it is in such a state. Then, when the light emission effect by the light guide plate 501 is completed, the player can visually recognize the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402, and the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 Since the state can be grasped, the player can be surprised. Further, the effect display device 5 is disposed rearward so that its display area overlaps at least a part of the moving areas E1 and E2 of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402, so that the light guide plate 501 is provided. , A motion effect by the first movable bodies 302L, 302R, and the second movable body 402, and a display effect by the effect display device 5 can be performed in a state where they are superimposed one on the other, respectively. Is improved.

  Further, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 as an embodiment of the present invention, the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 movably provided, and the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body are provided. A light guide plate 501 for forming a predetermined light guide pattern overlapping at least a part of the movement areas E1 and E2 of the body 402 on the player side in the depth direction; and an effect display device 5, and the first movable bodies 302L and 302R. In addition, it is possible to execute a light emission effect of causing the light emitting region 506 of the light guide plate 501 to emit light during at least a part of the movement period of the second movable body 402, which corresponds to the first movable bodies 302 L and 302 R and the second movable body 402. Since the effect display can be performed by the effect display device 5, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body are generated by performing the light emission effect by the light guide plate 501. The movement of 02 is less visible, it is possible to improve the performance effect.

  Specifically, during the advance operation of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 (a period from the start operation start time Ta2 to the advance operation end time Ta3), a predetermined image is formed on the light guide plate 501. When (still image) is displayed by light emission, since the light guide plate 501 is disposed in front of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402, the light guide plate 501 is located forward from the light guide plate 501, that is, on the player side. The emitted light makes it difficult for the player to visually recognize the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 behind the light guide plate 501. In other words, it is difficult for the player to grasp the state in which the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 are moving, so that the player can determine which of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 It can be interesting to see if it is in such a state. Then, when the light emission effect by the light guide plate 501 is completed, the player can visually recognize the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402, and the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 Since the state can be grasped, the player can be surprised. Further, since the effect display corresponding to the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 can be executed by the effect display device 5, the light emission effect by the light guide plate 501 is completed and the first movable bodies 302L and 302R are finished. And when the second movable body 402 becomes visible, for example, an effect that makes the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 stand out can be performed, and the interest of the combined effect is improved.

  Further, during the movement period of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402, the light emitting effect is performed by the front light guide plate device 500, so that the first movable bodies 302L, 302L behind the light guide plate 501 from the player. In order to make it difficult to visually recognize at least a part of the second movable body 402R and the second movable body 402, the front of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 is covered with a shutter or the like made of a non-translucent plate. Therefore, it is possible to attract the player's interest to the light emission effect of the light guide plate device 500, and to thereby make it difficult to pay attention to the movement of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402. It is possible to suitably enhance the unexpectedness when the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 appear at the first advance position and the second advance position with the end. Kill.

  In addition, the second movable body 402 particularly has a first effect portion 411A, second effect portions 411B, 411D, and a third effect portion 411C, which are horizontally oriented when they are in the first standby position and overlap each other in front and rear. And is provided so as to form a predetermined form by moving to the first advance position (see FIGS. 16 and 17). That is, since the movable body has a different form when it is at the first standby position and when it has moved to the first advance position, when the first movable bodies 302L and 302R appear at the first advance position with the end of the light emission effect. Can be suitably improved.

  Further, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 are arranged at a first standby position and a second standby position different from the first standby position, and are independently movable at timings other than the composite effect. Since the effects are executable and the movable bodies approach (join) each other in the combined effect, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 move to the first advance position and the second movable Surprisingness when appearing in a united state at the second advance position can be suitably increased.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the light emission effect by the light guide plate device 500 is executed at least in part during the advance operation period of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402, so that the player can be behind the light guide plate 501 from the player. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 may be difficult to visually recognize. At least a part of the second movable body 402 may be made invisible.

  In addition, as a method of reducing the visibility of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402, increasing the light emission luminance of the light guide plate LED 502, making the emission color the same as or similar to the surface color of the movable body, It is preferable to apply at least one of darkening the surface color of the movable body (black or the like) and arranging a plurality of light guide plates 501 in a superimposed manner.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the form in which the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 are used has been illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the first movable bodies 302L and 302R Only one of the second movable bodies 402 is provided so as to overlap with at least a part of the light emitting area 506 so that visibility of one of the movable bodies becomes difficult during at least a part of the movement period. Is also good.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the light emission effect by the light guide plate device 500 performed at least in part during the advance operation period of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 is performed by the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 302L and 302R. Although the mode executed during at least a part of the advance operation period of the two movable bodies 402 has been illustrated, the present invention is not limited to this, and may be executed at least part of the evacuation operation period.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the light-emitting effect by the light guide plate 501 is continued over the advance operation period of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 (a period from the advance operation start time Ta2 to the advance operation end time Ta3). (Pattern 1 in FIG. 23A or Pattern 2 in FIG. 23B) has been described as an example, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the first movable bodies 302L and 302R are not limited thereto. It is only necessary that the light-emitting effect of the light guide plate 501 be executable in a part of the movement period of the second movable body 402.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 24B, the light emission effect by the light guide plate 501 is started from Td1 when the start condition of the composite effect is satisfied, and when the advance operation of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 is started. The operation may be continued during Td2, and may be terminated before Td3, when the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 have advanced. As described above, the light emission effect is performed only during a part (first half) of the period from the start of the advance operation of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 to the end thereof. Thus, the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 become easily visible from the middle of the movement, but the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body in the middle of the movement in a situation where the operation has not been started. The sudden appearance of 402 can surprise the player.

  FIG. 24B illustrates an example in which the light-emitting effect is performed in the first half of the period from when the advance operation of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 is started to when the advance operation ends. The present invention is not limited to this, and the light emitting effect is executed during the period from the start of the advance operation of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 to the end thereof. Alternatively, the light emission effect may be executed in the latter half of the period from the start of the advance operation of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 to the end thereof.

  Further, in the above embodiment, as the composite effect, the operation effect of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402, the light guide plate effect (light emission effect) by the light guide plate device 500, the first movable members 302L, 302R, and the second effect. (2) Although the embodiment including the effect by each movable body LED provided on the movable body 402 and the display effect by the effect display device 5 has been described as an example, the present invention is not limited to this, and at least the first movable body is described. It suffices to include operation effects of the 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 and light guide plate effects by the light guide plate device 500, and light emission effects by the light guide plate device 500 and the movable LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D, and effect display. A display effect (for example, an effect display effect or the like) corresponding to the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 is performed by the device 5. It may be one that does not.

  In addition, when performing the composite effect only by the operation effect of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 and the light guide plate effect by the light guide plate device 500, the non-light emitting portions 507A to 507F of the light guide plate 501 are set to the light emitting area. 506 (the entire surface of the light guide plate 501 is used as the light emitting region 506) to prevent the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 from being visible from the non-light emitting portions 507A to 507F. Good. That is, when the light guide plate 501 emits light, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 may be made invisible.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, an example has been described in which the combined effect is executed after the super-reach effect is executed on the effect display device 5 and before a predetermined effect symbol (lottery result) is displayed. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and may be executed at appropriate timing. For example, the composite effect is executed at another timing during the variable display of the symbol, such as when the reach state is established, when the display reaches the super reach, when the symbol variable display is started, or when the pseudo ream is executed. You may make it. In addition, when the jackpot symbols are aligned and then re-changed to notify that the probability change is a jackpot, or when performing a promotion effect of notifying that the player has been promoted to the probability change jackpot during the jackpot, the hold in-house during the jackpot It may be executed at other various timings, for example, when notifying that there is a big hit or when notifying that the big hit round is to be continued.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the light emitting area 506 includes the moving area E1 of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R operating on the back side of the light guide plate 501, the moving area E2 of the second movable body 402, and the light emitting area of the effect display device 5. Although an example in which the display region is formed so as to be superimposed on the front and back of the display region is described as an example, the present invention is not limited to this. The light emitting region 506 may be used as long as it is formed so as to overlap at least a part of the moving regions E1 and E2 of the second movable member 402L and the second movable member 402. (For example, the mechanical portion E and the main effect portion) become difficult for the player to visually recognize during the advance movement, and the first movable bodies 302L and 302R are formed by the area (non-light-emitting area 507) other than the light-emitting area 506. Beauty portion of the second movable member 402 may be made visible from the player at the time of advancing movement.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, an example is described in which the effect display device 5 and the moving area E1 of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the moving area E2 of the second movable body 402 are arranged so as to overlap each other. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the effect display device 5 and the moving area E1 of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the moving area E2 of the second movable body 402 are not necessarily May not be superimposed. For example, the effect display device 5 and the moving area E1 of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the moving area E2 of the second movable body 402 may be shifted left and right or up and down so as not to overlap.

  Even in this case, the effect display device 5 can execute an effect display (for example, an effect display effect) corresponding to the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402. In the above-described embodiment, the effect display effect is executed as an example of the effect display corresponding to the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402. However, the present invention is not limited to this. Instead, for example, a display other than the effect, such as an effect display that displays an image (such as an image imitating the movable body) related to the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402, may be used.

  Further, since the light-emitting effect by the light guide plate 501 is performed from before the start of the movement of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and after the end of the movement of the second movable body 402, when the light-emitting effect ends, the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second Since the movement of the second movable body 402 has been completed and the movements of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 are more difficult to visually recognize, it is possible to improve the effect of the effect.

  That is, the light-emitting effect of the light guide plate 501 is started before the start operation Ta2 of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402, so that the player can use the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402L and 302R. It is difficult to grasp whether or not the second movable body 402 has started to operate, and the effect of giving interest to the states of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 is improved. Then, the light emission effect by the light guide plate 501 is performed for a predetermined period after the end operation of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 at the end of Ta3 (the period from the end of the advance operation Ta3 to the end of the emission operation Ta4). When the light-emitting effect by the light guide plate 501 ends, the player can visually recognize the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 located at the first advance position and the second advance position, and the effect is improved. I do.

  Note that a predetermined period after the advance operation end time Ta3 of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 (a period from the advance operation end time Ta3 to the light emission effect end time Ta4) can be appropriately set. For example, by setting a predetermined period longer than Ta3 at the end of the advance operation of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402, the state in which the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 cannot be visually recognized is set. The game may be continued for a long time to further interest the player.

  In addition, the light guide plate 501 includes an effect control CPU 120 that determines the light emission mode of the light emission effect from a plurality of types, and a CPU 103 of the game control microcomputer 100 that controls the light emission effect in an advantageous state that is advantageous to the player. The effect control CPU 120 determines the light emission mode depending on whether the CPU 103 is controlled to the advantageous state, and emits light in the light emission mode determined by the effect control CPU 120 in the light emission effect by the light guide plate 501. Therefore, the player can have expectations according to the type of the light emitting mode of the light guide plate 501, so that interest can be improved.

  Specifically, the CPU 103 of the game control microcomputer 100 sends a variation pattern designation command indicating a variation pattern indicating a variation mode such as the variation time of the effect symbol, the type of the reach effect, and the presence or absence of the pseudo-run to the effect control board 12. Send. The ROM 121 included in the effect control board 12 stores a movable body movement mode determination table, a light guide plate light emission mode determination table, a movable body LED light emission mode determination table, and an effect display device display mode determination table. Then, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not the variation display result of the symbol specified from the variation pattern designation command is a big hit display result, the movable body movement mode determination table, the light guide plate light emission mode determination table, the movable body Based on the LED light emission mode determination table and the effect display device display mode determination table, for example, various effect modes (effect patterns) are determined by lottery using random numbers for effect, and an effect is performed based on the effect mode determined by the lottery. Execute. Therefore, the moving manner of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402, the light emitting manner of the light guide plate 501, the light emitting manner of the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D, and the display manner of the effect display device 5 are changed. An effect can be performed, and for example, the light guide plate LED 502 can emit light in a white, red, or flash mode, and the player has a loss display result when the symbol fluctuation display result is a big hit display result. By causing the light to emit in red or flash at a higher rate than in the case, the player performs a red or flash light emission effect by the light guide plate device 500, thereby performing a white light emission effect. Since the big hit display result can be expected to be derived, the interest of the game is improved. Further, since the composite effect is executed by combining various effect modes, the range of the composite effect is expanded.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the form in which the jackpot game state is applied is exemplified as an example of an advantageous state that is advantageous to the player. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the advantageous state that is advantageous to the player is as follows. For example, it includes a time-saving state in which time-saving control is performed, a probability-variable state in which probability-variable control is performed, and the like.

  Further, the pachinko gaming machine 1 includes an effect display device 5, and the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 have movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D, and perform a light emitting effect of the light guide plate 501. At this time, the effect display device 5 and the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D are turned off, so that the light emitting effect of the light guide plate 501 can be enhanced. The visibility of the movement of the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 can be further reduced. In other words, during a part of the light emission effect of the light guide plate 501, specifically, during the period from the time Ta1 when the start condition of the composite effect is satisfied to the time Ta3 when the advance operation ends, the effect display device 5 and the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second effect. Since the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, and 407A to 407D of the movable body 402 are turned off, the light emitting effect of the light guide plate 501 stands out, and the visibility of the first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 is further reduced. Act synergistically.

  Further, the second movable body 402 is a part for moving the second movable body 402 and includes a mechanism part E at least partially visible to a player when the second movable body 402 is moving at least. Since the predetermined light guide pattern is disposed in front of the movement area of the mechanical portion E in the second movable body 402, the mechanical portion E of the second movable body 402 is hardly visually recognized by the light emission effect of the light guide plate 501. be able to.

  By doing so, even if the mechanism part E of the moving mechanism part becomes visible to the player in accordance with the movement of the second movable body 402, the mechanism part E is concealed by the light emission effect by the light guide plate 501. This makes it difficult to visually recognize the mechanism portion E, so that it is possible to prevent the appearance of the second movable body 402 from being lost during the movement.

  Further, when the second movable body 402 reaches the second advance position, the first movable bodies 302L and 302R are arranged on the left and right sides of the second rendering unit 411B in the second movable body 402. In particular, since the first movable body 302L on the left side moves so as to overlap the front side of the mechanical part E which is a part of the second movable base 410B, the mechanical part E is concealed by the first movable body 302L and the player Thus, even if the light-emitting effect by the light guide plate 501 ends, the appearance of the second movable body 402 can be prevented from being impaired.

  In addition, by forming the mechanism portion E by a transmissive member having a light transmitting property, the light emitting effect of the light guide plate 501 is executed when the second movable body 402 moves from the second standby position to the second advance position. The visibility of the mechanism part E at that time may be made more difficult.

  The first movable bodies 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402 have movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D, and the light guide plate 501 includes a light emitting region 506 forming a predetermined light guide pattern and a predetermined light guide area. Non-light-emitting areas 507A to 507E in non-light-emitting areas 507 where no light pattern is formed, and the first movable body in a state in which the movable LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D are arranged corresponding to the non-light-emitting parts 507A to 507E. Since the light emission effect by the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D and the light guide plate 501 can be performed by operating the 302L, 302R and the second movable body 402, the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, 407A to 407D are used in the light emitting area 506. In addition to emitting light, the first non-emitting portions 507A to 507E Elements 302L, 302R and the movable member of the second movable member 402 LED307L, 307R, it is possible to emit light at 407A～407D, it is possible to improve the performance effect of emission effect.

  In the above-described embodiment, an example is described in which the movable body LEDs 307L, 307R, and 407A to 407D are arranged at positions corresponding to the non-light-emitting portions 507A to 507E, which are regions surrounded by the light-emitting region 506. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it is sufficient that the movable body LED is arranged so as to correspond to the non-light emitting area 507. For example, the movable body LED may be arranged so as to correspond to the non-light-emitting portion 507F in the non-light-emitting region 507.

  For example, in the above-described embodiment, the embodiment including the first movable bodies 302L and 302R and the second movable body 402 has been described.
