The second rotation side urging magnet 364 of the second rotation member 361 and the second support side urge magnet 380 of the second rotation support portion 376 use the second rotation member 361 as the second reference by an attractive force using a magnetic force. Gives urging force to hold in the rotating position. The second rotating member 361 held in the second rotation support portion 376 at the second reference rotation position in a state where the second movable unit 360 faces substantially the horizontal direction and is housed in the second movable unit accommodating portion 315 is the first. 2 The contact portion 362 is designed to face directly upward. Similarly, the rotary connecting member 377 connected to the second rotary member 361 is located above the second rotary support portion 376, and the notch portion of the rotary connecting member 377 (and the rotary guide portion 378) faces upward. It has become like.

In a predetermined gaming state, as shown in FIGS. 27 and 28, the first support member 331 of the first movable unit 320 swings from the first separation position to the lower first united position by the first drive unit 420. , The second support member 371 of the second movable unit 360 swings from the second separation position to the upper second united position by the second drive unit 460. As a result, the first movable unit 320 and the second movable unit 360 appear in front of the display screen 252 of the image display device 251.

Then, the first rotating member 321 held at the first reference rotation position in the first rotation support portion 336 and the second rotating member 361 held at the second reference rotation position in the second rotation support portion 376 are united. .. Further, the first rotation support portion 336 that supports the first rotation member 321 and the second rotation support portion 376 that supports the second rotation member 361 are combined. At this time, when the first contact portion 322 of the first rotating member 321 and the second contact portion 362 of the second rotating member 361 come into contact with each other and the first rotating member 321 and the second rotating member 361 are united, By combining the two fan shapes, one united effect member formed substantially rotationally symmetric is formed. When the first rotation support portion 336 and the second rotation support portion 376 are united, one united support portion having an outer peripheral shape similar to that of the united effect member is formed by combining the two fan shapes.

At this time, the rotation shaft 337 of the first rotation support portion 336 passes through the notch portions of the rotation connection member 377 and the rotation guide portion 378 of the second rotation support portion 376, and the shaft insertion portion 377a of the rotation connection member 377. Move to. As a result, the rotation shaft 337 of the first rotation support portion 336 is inserted into the insertion portion 377a of the rotation connection member 377, and the rotation connection member 377 can rotate coaxially around the rotation shaft 337. Therefore, the first rotation member 321 connected to the rotation shaft 337 of the first rotation support portion 336 and the rotation connection member 37 of the second rotation support portion 376.
The second rotating member 361 connected to No. 7 can rotate integrally with the second rotating member 361 in a united state.

Next, the rotating member driving unit 346 of the first movable unit 320 rotationally drives the first rotating member 321. The rotational driving force of the rotating member driving unit 346 not only acts on the first rotating member 321 but also the first contact portion 322 of the first rotating member 321 and the second contact portion 362 of the second rotating member 361. It also acts on the second rotating member 361 via. As a result, the first rotating member 321 and the second rotating member 361 have the urging force of the first rotating side urging magnet 324 and the first supporting side urging magnet 340, and the second rotating side urging magnet 364 and the second. It rotates integrally in a united state against the urging force of the support side urging magnet 380.

Next, the rotating member driving unit 346 of the first movable unit 320 stops the first rotating member 321 that is rotationally driven at the first reference rotation position. At this time, the second rotating member 361 united with the first rotating member 321 stops at the second reference rotation position. It should be noted that only in a state where the union detection sensor 379 of the second rotation support portion 376 detects the union detection piece 339 of the first rotation support portion 336 and outputs the union detection signal, is the rotating member drive unit 346 of the first movable unit 320. Is capable of rotationally driving the first rotating member 321 (to a rotation position other than the first reference rotation position). As a result, it is possible to prevent the rotating member driving unit 346 from rotationally driving the first rotating member 321 in a state where the first rotating member 321 and the second rotating member 361 are not united.

Then, the first support member 331 of the first movable unit 320 swings from the first united position to the first separated position above by the first drive unit 420, and the second support member 371 of the second movable unit 360 is second. The drive unit 460 swings from the second united position to the lower second separated position. Then, the first rotating member 321 held at the first reference rotation position in the first rotation support portion 336 and the second rotating member 361 held at the second reference rotation position in the second rotation support portion 376 are separated. .. Further, the first rotation support portion 336 that supports the first rotation member 321 and the second rotation support portion 376 that supports the second rotation member 361 are separated. At this time, the rotation shaft 337 of the first rotation support portion 336 passes through the notch portions of the rotation connection member 377 and the rotation guide portion 378 in the second rotation support portion 376, and from the shaft insertion portion 377a of the rotation connection member 377. break away.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the first support member 331 swings to the first united position, the second support member 371 swings to the second united position, and the first rotating member 321 and the second rotating member When the 361 is combined, the rotating member driving unit 346 of the first movable unit 320 is configured so that the first rotating member 321 and the second rotating member 361 can be integrally rotated. As a result, since only one rotating member driving unit 346 needs to be provided, it becomes easy to secure a mounting space for the effecting device 300 by omitting the second rotating member driving unit, and the effecting device 300 becomes large. It becomes possible to rotate.

Further, the first support member 331 swings to the first united position while the first rotating member 321 is held at the first reference rotating position and the second rotating member 361 is held at the second reference rotating position. Then, when the second support member 371 swings to the second united position, the first rotating member 321 and the second rotating member 361 are united. Then, the rotating member drive unit 346 of the first movable unit 320 causes the urging force of the first rotating side urging magnet 324 and the first supporting side urging magnet 340, and the urging force of the second rotating side urging magnet 364 and the second supporting side. The first rotating member 321 and the second rotating member 361 are configured to be integrally rotatable against the urging force of the urging magnet 380. As a result, the relative positional relationship between the first rotating member 321 and the second rotating member 361 in the separated state becomes constant, so that the first rotating member 321 and the second rotating member 361 can be reliably combined.

Further, by providing the rotating member drive unit 346 toward the first movable unit 320, the second movable unit 360 becomes lighter, so that the second support member 371 of the second movable unit 360 is moved upward from the second separation position. It is possible to reduce the load of the second drive unit 460 that swings to the second united position of the above. Further, as described above, when the second support member 371 swings to the second separated position, the second rotating member 361 uses gravity (without using the rotating member driving unit) to move to the second reference rotating position. This is because it can rotate and move.

When returning from the power off state, the first drive unit 420 and the second movable unit 360 swing the first support member 331 and the second support member 371 to the first united position and the second united position. After the first rotating member 321 and the second rotating member 361 are once united, the first support member 331 and the second support member 371 are swung to the first separation position and the second separation position. At this time, the rotating member driving unit 346 rotationally moves the first rotating member 321 to the first reference rotation position. As a result, when returning from the power-off state, the first rotating member 321 and the second rotating member 361 are held at the first reference rotation position and the second reference rotation position regardless of the operating state before the power-off occurs. In this state, the first support member 331 and the second support member 371 can be swung to the first separation position and the second separation position.
