In the gaming machine 10, a player plays a game using rented game media, and the gaming media include a pachinko machine 10a using game balls, a slot machine 10b using medals, and the like.
For example, the slot machine 10b has, as game states, a normal game state in which game media are spent at a predetermined rate, and a special game state (bonus), which is a game state in which an increase in game media can be expected compared to the normal game state and which is advantageous to the player. and so on.
When the bonus is won, the game is controlled so that a large amount of game media is paid out by subsequent winnings.
In addition, the slot machine 10b can be set with set values from 1 to 6 corresponding to the probability of winning the bonus. You can expect to get the ball out of.
In this way, the slot machine 10b has a ball payout adjustment function that changes the payout rate based on the set value.
Some pachinko machines 10a can also set a set value according to the winning probability of a big win, and according to this type of pachinko machine 10a, the payout can be adjusted based on the set value.
Such setting (change) of the setting values for the game machine 10 is not normally performed during the business hours of the game arcade. Set the date.

The game machine 10 is communicably connected to the machine computer 20, and as shown in FIG.
Various game information such as "out information", "safe information", "jackpot information", and "setting information" are transmitted from the centralized terminal board 12.例文帳に追加
The “out information” is information that can specify the number of inserted game media, and the “safe information” is information that can specify the number of paid-out game media.
The “jackpot information” is information that can specify the occurrence of specific games such as jackpots and bonuses that are advantageous to the player.
The “setting information” is information (setting value information) that can specify the setting values set in the game machine 10.
is.
This setting information is set at a predetermined time (for example, the time immediately before the start of business) when the gaming machine 20 is powered on.
, at regular intervals, in response to a request from the gaming device 40, or at any desired timing.

The call lamp 11 is provided for each gaming machine 10, and displays information related to the game output from the gaming machine 10. When an abnormality occurs in the gaming machine 10, the call lamp 11 lights up or flashes to notify the employee of the abnormality. can be notified.

The machine computer 20 is an information processing device communicably connected to the game machine 10 and the island computer 30, and transmits and receives various game information between these devices.
The console computer 20 appropriately accumulates and processes the game information received from the game machine 10 and transmits the game information to the island computer 30 .
The island computer 30 is an information processing device communicably connected to the console computer 20 and the game device 40 , and transmits game information received from the console computer 20 to the game device 40 .

The gaming device 40 is an information processing device such as a hall computer that operates according to a program.
The game device 40 has a function of managing and processing game information of each game machine 10 installed in the game hall, and can also manage business information in the game hall.
Such a game device 40 comprises a communication section 41, a storage section 42, an operation section 43, a display section 44, and a control section 45, as shown in FIG.

The communication unit 41 receives various game information (“out information”, “safe information”, “jackpot information”, “setting information”, etc.) from each game machine 10 via relay devices such as the console computer 20 and the island computer 30. can be received.
The game information is received together with information that can identify each game machine 10 and is accumulated (stored) in the storage unit 42 as game information for each game machine 10 in sequence.

The storage unit 42 is composed of a storage medium (for example, ROM, RAM, hard disk, etc.) capable of storing programs and data for executing various functions of the gaming device 40 .
The storage unit 42 stores the game information as well as the planned set value 400 and the specific set value 401 in association with each corresponding gaming machine 10 .

The planned setting value 400 is information of the setting value planned by reflecting the business plan of the amusement arcade and the intention of the store manager. , …”,
, the number of game machines 10 for each set value.
Planned setting values are input by operating the operation unit 43 and stored in the storage unit 42 (planned setting value storage means).
The specific setting value 401 is information about setting values actually set in each gaming machine 10 , and is information specified based on “setting information” output from each gaming machine 10 .
The specific setting value of the present embodiment is the game machine 10 for each setting value aggregated based on the "setting information".
number (for example, set value 6: 5 units, set value 5: 5 units, . . . ).
The specific setting values are totaled by the control unit 45 and stored in the storage unit 42 (specific setting value storage means).

The operating unit 43 is composed of, for example, a keyboard and a mouse, and is operated by a manager or employee of the game arcade to select and input predetermined data, instructions, commands, and the like.
For example, by operating the operation unit 43 , the planned setting values 400 can be input, and thereby the planned setting values 400 can be stored in the storage unit 42 .
By inputting budget management information such as profit targets and sales ratios based on the business plan, the control unit 45 can be set and distributed based on the input budget management information. ) can also be calculated.
For example, if the profit target or sales ratio is large, a calculation formula can be adopted in which a large number of low-set machines are allocated.
The distribution data automatically calculated in this manner can be stored in the storage unit 42 as the planned set values 400 .

The display unit 44 is display means such as a liquid crystal display, and can display various kinds of information.
For example, various game information, planned set values 400, specific set values 401, etc. can be displayed for each game machine 10. FIG.
Moreover, predetermined information can be displayed based on the determination result of the determination means in the control unit 45 described later.

The control unit 45 is composed of a CPU or the like, and performs predetermined operations by reading and executing programs stored in the storage unit 42 .
For example, based on the “setting information” received from each gaming machine 10, the control unit 45 aggregates the number of machines for each setting value. The aggregated value is stored in the storage unit 42 as the specific set value 401 .
In addition, the control unit 45 stores the input planned set value 400 in the storage unit 42 .

The control unit 45 can function as determination means for determining whether or not the planned setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 stored in the storage unit 42 match.
Specifically, the number of machines for each setting value, which is the planned setting value 400, and the number of machines for each setting value, which is the specific setting value 401, are compared to determine whether or not they match.
A specific operation (setting value confirmation processing) in such determination means will be described with reference to FIG.
FIG. 4 is a first explanatory diagram for explaining the setting value confirmation processing of the gaming device 40 of the present invention.
Plan setpoints 400 shown in FIG. 4 are allocated 2018
It is the number of units for each setting value on January 1, 2019, and the specific setting value 401 shown in the same figure is the "
This is the number of units for each set value on the same day, which is aggregated based on the setting information.
Here, the control unit 45 determines that the number of units in setting 1 in the planned setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 are both "160 units" and therefore match.
Similarly, the control unit 45 determines that the number of units in the setting 2 of the plan setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 are both "80 units" and therefore match.
In addition, the control unit 45 determines that both the number of units in the setting 3 of the plan setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 are "
40”, it is determined that they match.
In addition, the control unit 45 determines that both the number of units in the setting 4 of the plan setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 are "
20”, it is determined that they match.
In addition, the control unit 45 determines that both the number of units in the setting 2 of the plan setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 are "
5”, it is determined that they match.
In addition, the control unit 45 determines that both the number of units in the setting 1 of the plan setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 are "
5”, it is determined that they match.
Based on the above determination results, the control unit 45 determines that the planned set value 400 and the specific set value 401 match.
As a result, on January 1, 2018, all gaming machines 10 are set with the set values as planned.

Next, a case where the planned setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 do not match will be described.
FIG. 5 is a second explanatory diagram for explaining the setting value confirmation processing of the gaming device 40 of the present invention.
Plan setpoints 400 shown in FIG. 5 are allocated 2018
It is the number of units for each set value on January 2, 2019, and the specific set value 401 shown in the figure is the
This is the number of units for each set value on the same day, which is aggregated based on the setting information.
Here, the control unit 45 determines that the number of units in setting 1 in the planned setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 are both "160 units" and thus match.
Similarly, the control unit 45 determines that the number of units in the setting 2 of the plan setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 are both "80 units" and therefore match.
In addition, the control unit 45 determines that both the number of units in the setting 3 of the plan setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 are "
40”, it is determined that they match.
In addition, the control unit 45 determines that both the number of units in the setting 4 of the plan setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 are "
20”, it is determined that they match.
However, the specific setting value 401 differs from the specific setting value 401 of "five units" to the number of units of the setting 5, so the control unit 45 determines that they do not match. .
Also, the number of units in setting 6 is the specific setting value 4, whereas the planned setting value 400 is "5 units".
01 is different from "six", the control unit 45 determines that they do not match.
Based on the above determination result, the control unit 45 determines that the planned setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 do not match.
In other words, if the planned setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 do not match even partially, it is determined that they do not match.
As a result, on January 2, 2018, setting values different from the plan are set for at least some of the gaming machines 10 .

The control unit 45 can function as output means for performing a predetermined output based on the determination result of the determination means.
Specifically, predetermined information is output when it is determined that the planned setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 do not match.
For example, by turning on or flashing the call lamp 11 of the game machine 10 determined as not matching, the employee in the game hall can be notified.
As a result, it is possible to inform the employee that setting values different from the plan have been set, so that it is possible to quickly deal with setting errors or illegal settings.
Information can also be output to a mobile terminal (administrator terminal 50) carried by an administrator such as a manager of amusement arcades via a predetermined public line (for example, Internet line).
FIG. 6 shows an example of a screen displayed on the administrator terminal 50. As shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 6, when the determination means determines that the planned setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 do not match, the administrator terminal 50 displays that fact and information about the setting value determined not to match. can be made
In addition, it is also possible to display information (such as a machine number) that can identify the gaming machine 10 that has been determined not to match (not shown). In this case, "1st series: setting 5, 2nd series setting 1 . . . 10
Setting values planned for each gaming machine such as "0 series setting 2" are set as planned setting values, and "1 series:
Settings 5, 2: setting 1... 100s: setting 2" and so on are used as specific setting values for each gaming machine, and determination is made by the determining means.
As a result, the administrator can at least grasp that the set value different from the plan has been set regardless of whether it is inside or outside the game hall, and can quickly take measures against illegal setting or the like.

In addition, the gaming system 1 can perform the following processes.
The storage unit 42 (specific setting value storage means) of the gaming device 40 can store the specific setting value specified at a predetermined time.
For example, by outputting the setting information from the game machine 10 at a predetermined time (9:30) before the opening time (10:00), the game device 40 can Specific setting values specified based on the input setting values can be stored.
By doing so, the determination means can be performed at the start of business on the day (including immediately before and after the start of business).
Then, when it is determined that the planned set value and the specific set value do not match, the illegal setting that is the cause can be identified at the start of business, so that actual damage can be prevented.
Also, if the determination means is performed at a predetermined timing (for example, at regular intervals or at a predetermined time) during business, it is possible to detect fraudulent changes in the setting values of the gaming machine 10 during business.

Also, the game machine 10 can output the setting information at random timing.
In this case, the gaming device 40 can execute the determination means in accordance with the output timing.
In this way, since the timing of the determination means cannot be specified, for example, it is possible to deter/prevent fraudulent changes in the setting values of the gaming machine 10 after the determination means is executed.

In addition, the storage unit 42 (planned set value storage means) of the gaming device 40 can store the planned set values input during a specific period outside the operating hours of the game arcade.
In other words, it is possible to prevent the input/storage of the planned setting values during business hours.
Specifically, the time zone (for example, 23
:00 to 10:00), and input in other time periods is prohibited.
In this way, if the set value of the gaming machine 10 is changed illegally after the opening of business on the day, and the plan set value itself is changed, the plan set value and the specific set value are determined by the determination means. It is possible to prevent the occurrence of fraud that prevents the occurrence of a judgment result indicating that the two do not match each other.
Note that it is also possible to provide an opportunity to re-enter the planned set values only during a specific time period outside business hours.
The planned setting value is a reference value for determining whether the setting value set in the game machine 10 is as planned or not, so it is not desirable to change it, but if the change is not allowed at all, an input error has occurred. This is because you will sometimes make the wrong decision.
Therefore, by performing the operation described above, it is possible to improve the determination accuracy.

In addition, the gaming device 40 outputs a predetermined warning when the control unit 45 does not store the planned set values for the day in the storage unit 42 (plan set value storage means) before the opening hours of the game arcade. can function as a warning means to
As a result, even if the user forgets to enter the planned set values 400 before the start of business, it is possible to prompt the user to enter the planned set values 400 .
In this way, since the plan set value 400 can be reliably input at the start of business on the day (including immediately before and after the start of business), the determination means can be implemented at the start of business.
Then, when it is determined that the planned set value and the specific set value do not match, the illegal setting that is the cause can be identified at the start of business, so that actual damage can be prevented.
Also, if the determination means is performed at a predetermined timing (for example, at regular intervals or at a predetermined time) during business, it is possible to detect fraudulent changes in the setting values of the gaming machine 10 during business.

[Second embodiment]
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 7 and 8. FIG.
In addition, the same code|symbol is attached about the structure which is common in 1st Embodiment, and the description is used.
FIG. 7 is a schematic configuration diagram of the gaming system 1 according to the second embodiment of the present invention, and FIG.
FIG. 11 is a block diagram showing the flow of signals between devices of the gaming system 1 according to the second embodiment of the present invention;

As shown in these figures, the gaming machine 10 according to the second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that it is an enclosed gaming machine 60 (enclosed pachinko machine, enclosed slot machine).
In the second embodiment, an enclosed pachinko machine will be described as an example of the enclosed game machine 60. FIG.
In the system configuration using the enclosed type game machine 60, unlike the system configuration that is completed only within the game hall as in the first embodiment, it is also communicably connected to a control center device outside the game hall.
Specifically, as shown in FIG.
, a management unit 70, a relay device 80, a store server 90, a center server 100, and the like are connected so as to be capable of data communication via a predetermined network (for example, local area network, Internet line).

The enclosed game machine 60 is a game machine 10 such as a pachinko machine 10a or a slot machine 10b, but is constructed so that a player cannot directly touch game media such as game balls.
The number of game media obtained through a game is configured to be acquired as numerical data.
Since the enclosed type game machine 60 circulates the game balls inside the game machine, the game balls are not inserted or put out from the outside, and unlike the normal game machine 10, the upper tray and the lower tray temporarily store the game balls. is not provided.
For example, points are purchased in exchange for cash, etc., and the game is progressed based on this, and points (numerical data) are awarded instead of paying out game balls for a big hit or the like.
As shown in FIG. 8, from the enclosed gaming machine 60, similarly to the gaming machine 10 of the first embodiment, "
Game information such as "out information", "safe information", and "setting information" is transmitted to the gaming device 40 via the management unit 70 and the relay device 80. FIG.

In addition, the enclosed game machine 60 is provided with a call lamp 11, which is communicably connected via a management unit 70 provided with the enclosed game machine 60. - 特許庁

The management unit 70 has a function (sandwich function) corresponding to the conventional sandbox with a counting function for each machine, and assigns points according to the amount of money inserted, such as bills, prepaid cards, or membership cards. It has a function to
Also, the management unit 70 stores various game information and “authentication information” described later in the security board 7 .
1 and transmitted to the gaming device 40 via the relay device 80 or the like.
The management unit 70 also transmits game information and authentication information to the store server 90 .

The arcade server 90 is installed in a management room of the game arcade or the like, and transmits the gaming information and authentication information received from the management unit 70 to the center server 100 via a predetermined public line (for example, Internet line).
It should be noted that the system configuration may be such that the game device 40 takes over the functions of the arcade server 90 and the arcade server 90 is omitted.

The center server 100 is installed in the management center outside the game hall, and the store server 90
receive gaming information and authentication information from
The center server 100, for example, distributes an authentication key every day before the start of business, checks the authentication of the corresponding enclosed game machine 60, and receives "authentication information" indicating the authentication result.
Then, when it is confirmed that the authentication has been performed normally, the use of the management unit 70 and the enclosed game machine 60 is made possible, thereby preventing fraudulent use of the enclosed game machine 60 and the management unit 70. do.
In this way, the center server 100 not only comprehensively manages game information, but also monitors illegalities in the enclosed game machine 60 and the like.

Also in the game device 40 of such a system, the specified set value 401 specified based on the "setting information" of the enclosed game machine 60 output via the management unit 70 and the input planned set value 400 It is possible to determine whether or not they match, and perform a predetermined output based on the determination result.
In other words, even when the enclosed game machine 60 is applied as the game machine 10, the same effect as in the first embodiment can be obtained.

Next, the setting value confirmation processing (operation of the determination means) performed in the control section 45 of the game device 40 will be described according to the flowchart shown in FIG.

First, in the setting value confirmation process, it is determined whether or not the timing for confirming the setting values of each game machine 10 (including each enclosed game machine 60; the same shall apply hereinafter) has come (S100).
For example, a predetermined time during business hours can be set as the confirmation timing. In this case
It is determined whether or not the confirmation timing has come depending on whether or not the predetermined time has come.
Here, when the control unit 45 determines that the timing for confirming the set value has arrived (S10
0-Yes), the process proceeds to S101.
If it is determined that the confirmation timing has not arrived (S100-No), the process ends. In this case, when the next confirmation timing arrives, the setting value confirmation process is started again.

Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the setting values of all gaming machines 10 have been acquired (S101).
Specifically, it is determined whether or not setting information, which is information of setting values set in all gaming machines 10, has been received. More specifically, the received setting information is developed in a temporary storage area such as a memory, and it is determined whether or not the setting value information for all gaming machines 10 is stored in this storage area.
When the control unit 45 determines that the setting values of all the gaming machines 10 have been acquired (S101-Yes)
, acquires the input planned setting value 400 (S102), and stores the storage unit (planned setting value storage means) 4
Store in 2.
In addition, when it is determined that the setting values of all gaming machines 10 could not be acquired (S101-No),
Processing ends.

Next, the control unit 45 acquires the specific set value 401 (S103).
Specifically, the specific setting value 401 is specified based on the setting information received from all gaming machines 10 (
acquisition), and the acquired specific setting value 401 is stored in the storage unit (specific setting value storage means) 42 .

Next, the control unit 45 determines whether or not the planned setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 match (S104).
In other words, the control unit 45 functions as a determination unit to compare the planned setting value 400 acquired in S102 and the specific setting value 401 acquired in S103 and determines whether or not they match.
Then, when it is determined that the planned setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 match (S104-
If yes), the process is terminated, and if it is determined that they do not match (S104-No), the administrator terminal 50 is notified (S105).
Specifically, the control unit 45 can notify by transmitting predetermined information to the address of the manager terminal 50 such as a mobile terminal carried by the manager of the game arcade.

As described above, the gaming device 40 of the present invention determines whether or not the set values planned by reflecting the sales plan and the store manager's intentions and the set values actually set in the gaming machine 10 match. I am trying to judge whether.
Therefore, for example, there is no need to go to each gaming machine 10 to check the setting values, thereby preventing unauthorized setting changes during operation.
In addition, if a game hall employee sets wrong setting values that are different from the planned setting values (setting error), or if fraudulent setting values are set that are intentionally different from the planned setting values ( Incorrect settings) can be effectively detected, and setting mistakes and unauthorized settings can be deterred and prevented.
On the other hand, even in the conventional game system, it is not necessary to go to each game machine 10 to check the setting values, and it is possible to prevent illegal setting changes during operation.
0, it is not possible to grasp whether or not the set value set in the game machine 10 is suitable for the set value planned by reflecting the business plan and the intention of the store manager. , could not deal with the above setting mistakes and incorrect settings.
According to the present invention, part or all of such conventional problems can be solved.

Although preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above, it is needless to say that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and that various modifications can be made within the scope of the present invention.
For example, the setting and changing of setting values in the gaming machine 10 are performed by the gaming device 40 and the management unit 7 .
It is also possible to disable execution without receiving a grant signal from 0.
In addition, setting or changing the setting values of the game machine 10 can only be performed by, for example, two or more administrators or employees (for example, adopting a configuration that requires simultaneous operations on multiple locations). , can also be complicated.
Further, when it is determined that the planned setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 do not match, the gaming machine 10
It is also possible to prohibit the game by controlling the management unit 70 (sand function) so as not to operate.
Also, the ON/OFF of the setting value confirmation processing function in the gaming device 40 can be switched by a predetermined operation.
In this case, by passing through the authentication of the worker of the game machine manufacturer, the above ON/OFF only for the worker concerned
It can also be allowed to be off.
In addition, it is also possible to determine whether the planned set value 400 and the specific set value 401 match each other by comparing the gaming machines one by one.
Further, in the present embodiment, an example in which the game device 40 of the present invention is applied to a hall computer has been described, but the machine computer 20, the island computer 30, the management unit 70, the relay device 80, the store server 90, the center server 100, It can also be applied to various devices such as sandwiches with counting functions for each machine, prize exchange machines, counters, call lamps 11 and game information display devices.
Further, in the present embodiment, an example of transmitting various game information in the game machine 10 to the game device 40 via relay devices such as the console computer 20 and the island computer 30, the management unit 70, and the relay device 80 has been shown. , may be directly transmitted to the gaming device 40 .
In addition, the setting value (specific setting value) set in each gaming machine 10 can be obtained by various methods other than obtaining from the "setting information".
For example, if the game machine 10 is provided with a so-called 7-segment display that emits numerical information corresponding to a set value, the light-emitting state of the 7-segment display can be detected via light detection means capable of detecting the light emission state of the 7-segment display. By outputting information indicating to the gaming device 40, in the gaming device 40,
A setting value set in the gaming machine 10 can be acquired.
Moreover, although the method of performing the setting value confirmation processing for all the game machines 10 installed in the game arcade has been described, it is also possible to target the game machines 10 in a specific area such as each game island.
Also, even if the game machine 10 capable of setting and outputting the setting value is installed only in a part of the game hall, the setting value confirmation process can be performed for the game machine 10 as a target.
Also, the setting value confirmation processing can be performed on a so-called high setting table (a game machine 10 with a planned setting value of 5 or 6).
Also, when it is determined that the planned setting value 400 and the specific setting value 401 match, a predetermined output can be performed.
In addition, the output of warnings, etc. to the administrator is based on the planned setting value of 400 and the specific setting value of 4 on the high setting table.
01 does not match.
