Here, the cross button 3100 and the press button 3000 are both substantially rectangular in shape with straight sides, and the straight sides are arranged opposite to each other.

[Speaker unit 10]
The speaker unit 10 is a bass reflex type that amplifies low-frequency sounds, and includes a speaker 10c and an enclosure 10e. The speaker 10c is provided on the front surface of the enclosure 10e, and the front portion of the speaker 10c is covered by a speaker cover 10k provided at the center of the front surface of the lower plate cover 8b. Sound generated at the front of the speaker 10c is transmitted directly to the player through the speaker cover 10k, while sound generated at the rear of the speaker 10c is temporarily confined inside the enclosure 10e.

The enclosure 10e is intended to contain the sound generated from the rear of the speaker 10c so as not to interfere with the sound generated from the front thereof, and is formed to have a relatively large volume. As shown in FIG. 15, the upper left portion 10ea of the enclosure 10e is formed to protrude to the upper right side of the lower tray 18. Further, the upper left portion 10ea of the enclosure 10e is arranged so as to be in contact with the bottom of the upper plate body 17p. Further, the lower left portion 10eb of the enclosure 10e is arranged so as to be in contact with the right end portion of the lower tray main body 18p.

As shown in FIG. 17, an opening 10ec leading to a conduit (not shown) provided inside is provided at the lower right end of the enclosure 10e. Such a conduit and opening 10ec resonate and amplify the sound emitted from the rear of the speaker 10c into the enclosure 10e, and propagate it to the outside according to the principle of so-called Helmholtz resonance. The sound propagating to the outside from the opening 10ec overlaps with the sound emitted from the front of the speaker 10c, so that it is felt as a rich and powerful bass sound. Further, when sound is generated from the speaker 10c, air flows out from the opening 10ec in conjunction with the generation of the sound. When no sound is generated from the speaker 10c, air does not flow out from the opening 10ec.

According to such a speaker unit 10, since the upper left portion 10ea of the enclosure 10e has a partially bulged shape, it is possible to secure a more sufficient volume than, for example, a rectangular parallelepiped enclosure, so that sufficient sound can be produced from the speaker 10c. It is possible to generate a powerful bass sound by applying pressure.

Moreover, when generating sound from the speaker 10c, at the same time, air can be sent out with sufficient wind pressure to the outside from the opening 10ec of the enclosure 10e.

Furthermore, when the speaker 10c generates sound, the entire enclosure 10e vibrates according to the sound pressure, but the upper left 10ea and the lower left 10eb of the enclosure 10e are part of the upper tray body 17p and the lower tray body 18p. Since they are in contact, the vibration is also transmitted to the entire upper plate body 17p and lower plate body 18p. As a result, even if a large number of game balls are stored in the upper tray main body 17p and the lower tray main body 18p, ball clogging of game balls coming out from the payout port 170 and the discharge port 180 can be effectively removed by vibration. It can be prevented.

[Blower mechanism 110]
The air blowing mechanism 110 switches the direction of air sent out from the opening 10ec of the enclosure 10e, and is arranged adjacent to the right side surface of the enclosure 10e. As shown in FIGS. 18 and 20, the blower mechanism 110 includes cover members 110A and 110B that can be divided into left and right halves, a solenoid 111, a slide member 112, a link member 113, a spring 114, an opening/closing member 115, and an opening/closing detection sensor 116. has. The solenoid 111, the slide member 112, the link member 113, the spring 114, the opening/closing member 115, and the opening/closing detection sensor 116 are housed inside the cover members 110A and 110B.

As shown in FIGS. 20 and 21, the cover member 110A is provided with a space 110a that can be closed and opened by the opening/closing member 115 in a direction facing straight from the opening 10ec of the enclosure 10e. The lower part of the space 110a is always open regardless of whether the opening/closing member 115 is closed or opened, and a vent 8ca provided in the undercover 8c is located there (see FIG. 17). As shown in FIGS. 18 and 20, the cover member 110B is provided with an opening 110b at a position facing the space 110a. On the right side of the opening 110b, an air blowing port 80 provided in the lower right side cover 8ba, which is detachable as a part of the lower plate cover 8b, is located (see FIGS. 13, 16, and 17). As a result, when the opening/closing member 115 closes the space 110a, the wind sent out from the opening 10ec is blocked by the opening/closing member 115, and is guided below the space 110a without passing through the opening 110b. It will be destroyed. The wind guided below the space 110a is sent out to the outside through the vent 8ca of the undercover 8c. On the other hand, when the opening/closing member 115 opens the space 110a, the wind sent out from the opening 10ec flows almost straight without being blocked by the opening/closing member 115, and after passing through the space 110a and the opening 110b, it flows to the right. It is sent out to the outside through the air outlet 80 of the lower side cover 8ba. The firing handle 26b of the firing device 26 is arranged at a position generally directly facing the ventilation opening 80, and the wind coming out of the ventilation opening 80 hits the player's hand holding the firing handle 26b. That is, since the flow path through which the wind flows from the opening 10ec to the firing handle 26b via the space 110a, the opening 110b, and the air outlet 80 is formed generally straight, the wind pressure can be applied to the player's hand holding the firing handle 26b. The wind can reach the player without weakening as much as possible, and the player can surely feel the wind.
In addition, regardless of whether the opening/closing member 115 is in the closed or open state, the sound sent out from the opening 10ec along with the wind is emitted to the outside through either the ventilation port 80 or the ventilation port 8ca, so it is caused by Helmholtz resonance. You can fully experience deep bass without reducing the acoustic effect.

As shown in FIGS. 18 to 21, the solenoid 111 has a plunger 111a that can be extended and retracted in conjunction with on/off operations. The tip of the plunger 111a is connected to the slide member 112. The slide member 112 is movably supported by the cover member 110A along the horizontal direction. A long hole 112a is formed in the slide member 112 so as to extend in the vertical direction. A connecting portion 113a of the link member 113 is movably locked in this elongated hole 112a.

The second big winning hole count switch 316 is for counting the number of winnings of game balls into the second big winning hole. When a win of a game ball is detected by the second big winning port count switch 316, the payout device 35 sends a preset number of game balls as prize balls to the upper tray 17 through the payout port 170 or the discharge port 180. Or, pay out to the lower tray 18.

These first big winning hole count switch 315 and second big winning hole count switch 316 send a predetermined detection signal to the main control board 28 when a game ball passes through the first big winning hole and the second big winning hole. supply to.

A specific area switch 317A and a non-specific area switch 317B are connected to the main control board 28, which are arranged in a specific area and a non-specific area (not shown) inside the second big prize opening. The specific area switch 317A supplies a predetermined detection signal to the main control board 28 as a V winning when it is detected that the game ball has passed through the specific area in the jackpot game state. The non-specific area switch 317B supplies a predetermined detection signal to the main control board 28 as a non-V winning when it is detected that the game ball has passed through the non-specific area in the jackpot gaming state.

The main control board 28 includes a second big winning hole solenoid 315A that drives a first big winning hole shutter (not shown) that opens and closes the first big winning hole, and a second big winning hole shutter that opens and closes the second big winning hole. (not shown) is exclusively controlled with the second big prize opening solenoid 316A. As a result, the first grand prize opening shutter can be set in an open state (first aspect) in which it is easy to enter a game ball into the first major prize opening, and in a closed state (second aspect) in which it is impossible or difficult to enter a game ball into the first major prize opening. ), and in a situation where the first grand prize opening is at least in a closed state, the second grand prize opening shutter is in an open state in which a game ball can be entered into the second grand prize opening. , and a closed state in which it is impossible or difficult for the game ball to win a prize. The opening drive of the first big winning hole and the second big winning hole by the first big winning hole shutter and the second big winning hole shutter is performed by the first special symbol display section 5C provided on the game board 1 or the second special symbol display section 5C provided on the game board 1. This is performed when the special symbol becomes a specific stop display mode in the special symbol display section 5D and the state is shifted to the jackpot game state.

The main control board 28 controls a blade member solenoid 313 that opens and closes a blade member (not shown) provided at the second starting port. As a result, when the normal symbol is stopped and displayed in a predetermined light emitting manner in the normal symbol display section 5A, the blade member is opened for a predetermined time and a predetermined number of times, making it easier to insert the game ball into the second starting port. Become.

For example, in the normal symbol game of this embodiment, the probability of winning a normal symbol in a gaming state that is not a time-saving gaming state (non-probability variable/non-time-saving gaming state) is 1/256, and the blade member is never released. . On the other hand, the winning probability of the normal symbol in the high probability state (time saving game state) is, for example, 255/256, and when the winning is achieved, the blade member is opened three times for, for example, 1.3 seconds. In addition, the number of normal symbols that become winning symbols in the normal symbol game is one, and the upper limit winning count when the second starting port is opened is 10 counts (10 pieces).

The main control board 28 controls a displacement member solenoid 318 that operates to open and close a displacement member (not shown) in a specific area within the second big prize opening. As a result, when a round game in a jackpot game state is being executed, the displacement member becomes open for a predetermined time and a predetermined number of times, making it easier for the game ball to pass through a specific area. On the other hand, if the displacement member is in the closed state even in the jackpot game state, it becomes impossible or difficult for the game ball to pass through the specific area, and it becomes easier for the game ball to pass through the non-specific area.

When a game ball is detected by the first starting port switch 311 while the first special symbol display section 5C or the second special symbol display section 5D is fluctuatingly displaying, the first special symbol reservation display section 5E Until the first special symbol or the second special symbol that is being fluctuatedly displayed in the first special symbol display section 5C or the second special symbol display section 5D is stopped and displayed, the first special symbol based on the winning of the game ball into the first starting hole. Displays the number for which execution (start) of variable display of symbols is suspended, that is, the number of suspensions related to the first special symbol. When the first special symbol or the second special symbol that has been variably displayed is stopped and displayed, the variable display of the first special symbol that has been held as the number of reservations related to the first special symbol is started.

When a game ball is detected by the second starting port switch 312 while the first special symbol display section 5C or the second special symbol display section 5D is fluctuating, the second special symbol reservation display section 5F Until the first special symbol or the second special symbol that is being fluctuated and displayed in the first special symbol display section 5C or the second special symbol display section 5D is stopped and displayed, the second special symbol based on the winning of the game ball in the second starting hole is displayed. Displays the number for which execution (start) of the variable display of symbols is suspended, that is, the number of suspensions related to the second special symbol. When the first special symbol or the second special symbol that has been variably displayed is stopped and displayed, the variable display of the second special symbol that has been held as the number of reservations related to the second special symbol is started.

Here, in the pachinko gaming machine of this embodiment, the priority order of the variable display of the first special symbol and the second special symbol is set such that the second special symbol has priority over the first special symbol. However, the corresponding first special symbols and second special symbols may be displayed variably in the winning order in accordance with the winning order in the first starting hole and the second starting hole.

In addition, an upper limit is set for the number of reservations for which execution of the variable display of special symbols is suspended, and in this embodiment, the main CPU 280 controls the number of times when the game ball enters the first starting hole and the second starting hole. When a game ball is detected by the first starting port switch 311 and the second starting port switch 312, the number of pending variable displays of the first special symbol and the second special symbol is set to a maximum of 4 (that is, 4 detected). (number of times) is stored, and the fifth and subsequent items are not stored as the pending number. At this time, when the number of reservations decreases due to the end of the variable display of the special symbols, the number of reservations is added again up to four.

When the number of pending first special symbol games in the first special symbol display section 5C is, for example, up to four, the information of the special symbol game corresponding to the first special symbol display section 5C which is being changed is stored in the main RAM 282. 1 special symbol starting memory area (0) as a starting memory, and thereafter, the information of the special symbol game with a pending number of 4 is stored in the first special symbol starting memory area (1) to (4) of the main RAM 282. It is stored sequentially as a starting memory.

Similarly, regarding the second special symbol game in the second special symbol display section 5D, if the number of pending second special symbol games is, for example, up to four, the second special symbol game corresponding to the second special symbol display section 5D that is changing. The information on the second special symbol game is stored in the second special symbol starting memory area (0) of the main RAM 282 as a starting memory, and from then on, the information on the second special symbol game for which the number of reservations is four is stored in the second special symbol starting memory area (0) of the main RAM 282. 2 Special symbols are sequentially stored in the starting storage areas (1) to (4) as starting memories.

Therefore, the number of reserved game balls related to the special symbol game due to winning in the first starting hole and the second starting opening is a maximum of 8 in total, and the first special symbol pending display section 5E and the second special symbol pending display The number of pending displays by section 5F is also four.

The open state of the first big winning hole by the first big winning hole shutter determines whether the count value (number of winning game balls) by the first big winning hole count switch 315 reaches a predetermined number (for example, number of winnings 10). Alternatively, it is maintained until either one of the conditions, such as the elapse of a predefined opening time to be described later, is met. When the number of winning game balls reaches a predetermined number, or when the opening time of the first big winning hole shutter has elapsed, the first big winning hole shutter is driven to close the first big winning hole.

Similarly, in the open state of the second grand prize opening by the second grand prize opening shutter, the count value (the number of winning game balls) by the second grand prize opening count switch 316 becomes a predetermined number (for example, the number of winnings 10). It is maintained until either one of the following conditions is met, or a predefined opening time described below has elapsed. When the winning number of game balls reaches a predetermined number, or when the opening time of the second grand prize opening shutter has elapsed, the second grand prize opening shutter is driven to close the second grand prize opening.

In the jackpot game state, the open state and closed state of the first jackpot and the second jackpot are repeated based on a preset jackpot opening/closing pattern (winning opening/closing pattern). In the jackpot game state, a game in which the first jackpot and the second jackpot are in the open state and closed state for a predetermined number of times based on the jackpot opening/closing pattern (winning opening/closing pattern) is called a "round game (round game)". ``games''. A round game (round game) is sometimes simply called a round. Regarding the state from when the first grand prize opening or the second grand prize opening is closed due to one round game until the first grand prize opening or the second grand prize opening becomes open for the next round game. is also referred to as an "inter-round game" or "inter-round interval" or simply "interval." In one round game, each of the first big winning hole and the second big winning hole may be in an open state and a closed state multiple times. Furthermore, in one round game, the opening/closing states of the first big winning hole and the second big winning hole are exclusively controlled. That is, in one round game, while one grand prize opening is repeatedly opened a predetermined number of times, the other grand prize opening is continuously kept closed.

Note that the gaming machine of this embodiment is provided with a so-called small winning gaming state as a gaming state that has a different nature from the jackpot gaming state. Unlike the jackpot gaming state, the small winning gaming state is not defined by the concept of a round game, and in the small winning gaming state of this embodiment, it is defined that the second big winning opening is repeatedly opened a predetermined number of times. There is. Of course, in the small winning game state, an arbitrary or specific big winning opening may be controlled to be repeatedly opened once or multiple times. This small winning game state is a gaming state that is transitioned to when a small winning is won by special symbol lottery. The gaming state basically does not change before shifting to the small winning gaming state and after it ends. For example, if you win a small win in a non-probability variable gaming state and move to the small winning gaming state, the gaming state after the small winning gaming state ends will remain the same as the non-probability variable gaming state before shifting to the small winning gaming state. Therefore, there is no transition to a variable gaming state. Similarly, if you win a small win in the variable probability gaming state and move to the small winning gaming state, the gaming state after the end of this small winning gaming state will be the small winning gaming state as long as the number of games in the variable probability gaming state remains. The game remains in the variable probability gaming state before the transition to , and does not shift to the non-probability variable gaming state.

A round game is counted as the number of rounds (number of times), such as 1 round and 2 rounds. In one round game, if the maximum number of prizes per round is reached before the first big prize opening or the second big prize opening is opened a predetermined number of times, the first big prize opening and the second big prize opening The winning hole is closed, and the round game is ended without opening the first big winning hole and the second big winning hole for the remaining number of openings.

Further, in a specific round game in which the second big prize opening is in an open state in the jackpot game state, the displacement member is controlled based on a preset operation pattern (displacement member operation pattern). As a result, the specific area becomes an open state and a closed state in a specific round game in a jackpot game state. In other words, in a specific round game, it is possible for a game ball to pass through a specific area and win a V prize, while in a round game other than a specific round game, even if a game ball were to land in the second grand prize opening, Also, it becomes impossible or difficult for the game ball to pass through the specific area. That is, the types of jackpot gaming states include jackpot gaming states that include a specific round game and jackpot gaming states that do not include a specific round game.

On the screen of the liquid crystal display device 4, performance images related to the special symbols displayed in the first special symbol display section 5C and the second special symbol display section 5D are displayed. For example, during the variable display of special symbols displayed on the first special symbol display section 5C and the second special symbol display section 5D, except in specific cases, symbols consisting of numbers are displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display device 4. (Decorative pattern), for example, numbers such as "0", "1", "2", . . . "7" are displayed in three columns in a variable manner.

On the other hand, when the special symbols that have been variably displayed on the first special symbol display section 5C and the second special symbol display section 5D are stopped and displayed, the decorative symbols are also stopped and displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display device 4.

In addition, in the first special symbol display section 5C and the second special symbol display section 5D, if the changed or stopped special symbol is in a specific stop display mode, the player is made to understand that it is a "jackpot". The effect image is displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display device 4.

Specifically, when a special symbol is stopped and displayed in a specific display mode corresponding to a "jackpot" in either the first special symbol display section 5C or the second special symbol display section 5D, the liquid crystal The combination of decorative symbols for performance displayed on the screen of the display device 4 becomes a specific display mode (for example, a mode in which the same symbols are stopped and displayed in each of a plurality of symbol rows), and , a performance image for the jackpot is displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display device 4.

For example, as shown in FIG. 23, the tables stored in the main ROM 281 include a jackpot lottery table and a symbol lottery table. The jackpot lottery table is used when a jackpot lottery is performed by random number lottery.For example, if a random number of 0 to 254 is extracted from a random number range of 0 to 255, it is a loss, and if a random number of 255 is extracted, it is a jackpot. stipulates that the winner will be elected. The symbol lottery table is used to determine the first special symbol (special symbol 1) and second special symbol (special symbol 2) by random number lottery when winning a jackpot. For example, such a symbol lottery table selects a 4R normal symbol corresponding to a 4R normal jackpot when a random number value of 0 to 35 is extracted from a random number range of 0 to 99 regarding the first special symbol (special symbol 1). When a random value of 36 to 65 is extracted, a 16R normal symbol corresponding to a 16R normal jackpot is determined, and when a random value of 66 to 85 is extracted, a 4R probability variable symbol corresponding to a 4R probability variable jackpot is determined. , 86 to 99 are extracted, it is specified that a 16R variable pattern corresponding to a 16R variable jackpot is determined. In addition, the symbol lottery table determines, for example, a 4R probability variable symbol corresponding to a 4R probability variation jackpot when a random number value of 0 to 33 is extracted from the random number range 0 to 99 regarding the second special symbol (special symbol 1). However, it is stipulated that when a random number value between 34 and 99 is extracted, a 16R variable pattern corresponding to a 16R variable jackpot is determined.

The sub-control board 33 is also connected to the second operation unit 9B, and can receive signals from sensors (not shown) provided in the second operation unit 9B. For example, when a press detection sensor detects that the press button 3000 is pressed, an operation signal corresponding to the operation of the press button 3000 is input from the press detection sensor to the sub-control board 33.

The sub CPU 330 executes various processes, mainly processes related to performance operations, according to programs stored in the program ROM 331. The liquid crystal display device 4 functions as a display means. In particular, the sub CPU 330 controls the entire sub control board 33 according to various commands supplied from the main control board 28.

The program ROM 331 stores programs and various tables mainly used by the sub CPU 330 to control various effects.

For example, as shown in FIG. 23, the table stored in the program ROM 331 includes an effect lottery table. The production lottery table includes, for example, a production related to air blowing using the speaker unit 10 and the ventilation mechanism 110 (air blowing production), a production related to light irradiation using the light emitting unit 12 (light irradiation production), an operation member 2000 or a press button 3000. It is used when performing a performance lottery by random number lottery to determine whether or not to perform various performances such as operation performances (first operation performance, second operation performance) using . Note that when the air blowing effect is executed, a sound effect that generates bass using the speaker 10c is also executed at the same time. The first operation performance is a performance using the operation member 2000 of the first operation unit 9A, and the second operation performance is a performance using the press button 3000 of the second operation unit 9B.

Specifically, the production lottery table uses ventilation effects, light irradiation effects, and operation effects in the event of a loss in the jackpot lottery, a 4R regular jackpot win, a 16R regular jackpot win, a 4R sure-variable jackpot, or a 16R probability-variable jackpot. A lottery value is defined for determining whether or not to execute each performance by a random number lottery (a lottery using random numbers in the range of 0 to 99).

According to such a performance lottery table, for the ventilation performance, if the jackpot lottery result is a loss, "no performance" is always determined by extracting a random number between 0 and 99, and in the case of a 4R normal jackpot, When a random number between 0 and 30 is extracted, “no effect” is determined, while when a random number between 31 and 99 is extracted, “with effect” is determined, and in the case of a 16R normal jackpot, a value between 0 and 95 is determined. When a random number is extracted, “no effect” is determined, while when a random number between 96 and 99 is extracted, “with effect” is determined, and in the case of a 4R probability variable jackpot, a random number between 0 and 50 is extracted. If a random value between 51 and 99 is extracted, “with effect” is determined. In the case of a 16R probability variable jackpot, when a random value between 0 and 50 is extracted, “with effect” is determined. "No effect" is determined, while "with effect" is determined when a random number between 51 and 99 is extracted.

Regarding the light irradiation effect, if the jackpot lottery result is a loss, "no effect" will be determined if a random number between 0 and 90 is extracted, while "with effect" will be determined when a random number between 91 and 99 is extracted. is determined, and in the case of a 4R normal jackpot, if a random number between 0 and 90 is extracted, "no effect" is determined, while when a random number between 91 and 99 is extracted, "with effect" is determined, In the case of a 16R regular jackpot, "with effect" is determined by always extracting a random number between 0 and 99, and in the case of a 4R guaranteed variable jackpot, "no effect" is determined when a random number between 0 and 90 is extracted. On the other hand, if a random number between 91 and 99 is extracted, it is determined that there is an effect, and in the case of a 16R probability-variable jackpot, a random number between 0 and 99 is always extracted and it is determined that there is an effect. .

Regarding the first operation performance, if the jackpot lottery result is a loss, if a random number between 0 and 95 is extracted, "no performance" will be determined, while when a random number between 96 and 99 is extracted, "with performance" will be determined. ” is determined, and in the case of a 4R normal jackpot, if a random number between 0 and 50 is extracted, “no effect” is determined, while when a random number between 51 and 99 is extracted, “with effect” is determined. , in the case of a 16R regular jackpot, if a random number between 0 and 50 is extracted, "no effect" is determined, while when a random number between 51 and 99 is extracted, it is determined that there is an effect, resulting in a 4R probability variable jackpot. In this case, if a random number between 0 and 85 is extracted, “no effect” is determined, while when a random number between 86 and 99 is extracted, “with effect” is determined, and in the case of a 16R probability variable jackpot, 0 When a random number value between 95 and 95 is extracted, "no effect" is determined, while when a random number value between 96 and 99 is extracted, "with effect" is determined.

Regarding the second operation effect, if the jackpot lottery result is a loss, "no effect" is determined by always extracting a random number between 0 and 99, and in the case of a 4R normal jackpot, a random number between 0 and 97 is extracted. If a random number between 98 and 99 is extracted, it will be determined that there is an effect, and in the case of a 16R normal jackpot, a random number between 0 and 99 will always be extracted. In the case of a 4R fixed-variable jackpot, "no effect" is determined when a random number between 0 and 90 is extracted, while when a random value between 91 and 99 is extracted, "with effect" is determined. ” is determined, and in the case of a 16R variable jackpot, if a random number between 0 and 60 is extracted, “no effect” is determined, while when a random number between 61 and 99 is extracted, “with effect” is determined. Ru.

According to such a performance lottery table, the combination pattern in which performances such as the air blowing performance, the light irradiation performance, the first operation performance, and the second operation performance occur simultaneously differs in probability depending on the type of loss or jackpot. In other words, it is possible to easily predict the type of loss or jackpot depending on the combination pattern of effects that occur.

Furthermore, as is clear from the stipulations regarding the operation performance, the first operation performance using the operation member 2000 of the first operation unit 9A is better than the second operation performance using the push button 3000 of the second operation unit 9B. appears more frequently. That is, since the press button 3000 used in the second operation effect is used less frequently than the operation member 2000 used in the first operation effect, the cross button that is disposed near the press button 3000 and is unrelated to the operation effect. In addition to preventing erroneous operation of buttons such as 3100, by providing the frequently used operating member 2000 in an independent operating unit, the wiring and board can be easily specially designed.

The work RAM 332 serves as a temporary storage area for the sub CPU 330 and stores various data (flags, counters, timers, variable values, etc.).

The command input port 333 receives various commands sent from the main CPU 280 of the main control board 28 and transmits them to the sub CPU 330.

The RTC 334 inputs a date signal indicating the current date and a time signal indicating the current time to the sub CPU 330. The RTC 334 normally operates using the power from the gaming machine when power is being supplied to the gaming machine, and when the gaming machine is powered off, the RTC 334 operates using a backup power supply mounted on a power supply board (not shown). It operates using power supplied from Thereby, the RTC 334 can measure the current date and time even when the power to the gaming machine main body is turned off. Note that the RTC may be operated by a battery provided on the sub-control board. Further, as an alternative to the RTC, a counter provided in a work RAM having a function as a backup RAM may be used as a means for measuring time by counting up at predetermined intervals (for example, every 2 ms).

The display control circuit 335 is for controlling the display in the liquid crystal display device 4 according to data supplied from the sub CPU 330, and includes, for example, a video data processor (VDP) and a circuit for generating various image data. It consists of an image data ROM that stores data, a frame buffer that temporarily stores image data, and a D/A converter that converts image data into an image signal. Note that the configuration of the display control circuit 335 is just an example, and is not limited to this.

The display control circuit 335 temporarily stores image data to be displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display device 4 in a frame buffer in response to an image display command supplied from the sub CPU 330. The image data includes, for example, decorative pattern image data, background image data, various presentation image data, various fraud notification image data, and the like.

Further, the display control circuit 335 supplies the image data stored in the frame buffer to a D/A converter (not shown) at a predetermined timing. The D/A converter converts the image data into an image signal and supplies this image signal to the liquid crystal display device 4 at a predetermined timing. An image is displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display device 4 based on an image signal from the D/A converter.

The sound control circuit 336 is for controlling sounds such as music and voices generated from the speakers 10a, 10b, and 10c, and includes a sound source IC that controls sound output, and a sound data ROM that stores various sound data. , includes an amplifier (AMP) for amplifying the sound signal. Note that the configuration of the sound control circuit 336 is also just an example, and is not limited to this.

The sound source IC also reads the selected sound data from the sound data ROM, converts the sound data into a predetermined sound signal, and supplies the sound signal to the amplifier. Note that this amplifier amplifies the sound signal and generates sound from the speakers 10a, 10b, and 10c.

The light emission control circuit 337 is for controlling lamps/LEDs 260 including decorative lamps, etc., and includes a drive circuit for supplying a light emission control signal, a decoration data ROM in which a plurality of types of lamp decoration patterns are stored, etc. It consists of Note that the configuration of the light emission control circuit 337 is also just an example, and is not limited to this.

The performance device control circuit 338 controls performance operations such as activating movable performance accessories in the jackpot game state, for example.

<About the right side decorative member 15 and the left side decorative member 16>
The right side decorative member 15 and the left side decorative member 16 are formed in a shape that is generally symmetrical with respect to each other, and both are configured with similar members. In the following description, the right decorative member 15 will be described for convenience.

The right side decorative member 15 and the left side decorative member 16 provide a light effect when predetermined game conditions are met. As shown in FIGS. 24 to 29, the right decorative member 15 includes a support member 150, a light emitting board (not shown), an outer light guide member 151, an inner light guide member 152, and a decorative cover 153. The support member 150, the light emitting board, the outer light guide member 151, and the inner light guide member 152 are covered with a decorative cover 153. The main front part of the decorative cover 153 is semi-transparent or transparent and has light transmittance.

The support member 150 and the light emitting board are attached to the right base plate 3aa. A light emitting substrate is arranged on the back side of the support member 150. A plurality of slits 150a are formed in the support member 150, and a plurality of LEDs (not shown) provided on a light emitting substrate are positioned facing the plurality of slits 150a. An outer light guide member 151 and an inner light guide member 152 are attached to the front part of the support member 150 along the plurality of slits 150a. The LEDs are arranged at predetermined intervals (for example, at intervals of 20 mm to 30 mm) in consideration of securing the amount of light and cost.

The outer light guide member 151 and the inner light guide member 152 are each made of a plate-like member, and the inner light guide member 152 is formed to be larger than the outer light guide member 151. The outer light guide member 151 and the inner light guide member 152 are located apart from each other by a predetermined distance in the left and right directions. The outer light guide member 151 and the inner light guide member 152 have the same configuration except for the size and arrangement, so in the following description, for convenience, the inner light guide member 152 will be explained.

As shown in FIGS. 25 to 29, the inner light guide member 152 has an entrance rear end surface 152a that is a light entrance surface, and an exit front end surface 152b that is a light exit surface. The incident rear end surface 152a is arranged so as to face the plurality of slits 150a of the support member 150. Thereby, the plurality of LEDs are arranged so as to be lined up along the longitudinal direction of the incident rear end surface 152a. The emission front end surface 152b is arranged along the inner surface of the decorative cover 153, and is entirely curved.

As shown in FIGS. 26 and 27, the rear entrance surface 152a is provided with sawtooth lens cuts that are uneven along the longitudinal direction. Thereby, the light from the LED that has passed through the slit 150a and entered the incident rear end surface 152a travels inside the inner light guide member 152 while being diffused generally in the longitudinal direction. A so-called diamond-cut lens cut is formed on the output front end surface 152b. Thereby, the light that has progressed from the incident rear end surface 152a into the inside of the inner light guide member 152 is irradiated forward with a certain degree of spread. Note that the output front end surface 152b of the inner light guide member 152 is arranged closer to the player's position than the output front end surface of the outer light guide member 151.

According to the right side decorative member 15, the light traveling inside can be efficiently diffused from the output front end surface 152b without leaking to the side, and the light can be produced so as to effectively stimulate the visual sense. can be executed. Since the left side decorative member 16 has the same configuration as the right side decorative member 15, it can effectively improve visual perception at the same time as the right side decorative member 15 produces light, or at a different timing from the right side decorative member 15. It is possible to perform a stimulating light display.

<About top decoration 14>
As shown in FIG. 5, the top decoration 14 includes a center decoration unit 14a, a right side decoration unit 14b, and a left side decoration unit 14c. The right side decorative unit 14b and the left side decorative unit 14c are formed in a shape that is generally symmetrical to each other, and both include similar members. In the following description, for convenience, the center decoration unit 14a and the right side decoration unit 14b will be explained.

[Central decoration unit 14a]
The central decoration unit 14a has an inverted triangular shape when viewed from the front and produces a light effect by emitting light at the start of a jackpot, for example. As shown in FIGS. 30 to 34, the central decoration unit 14a includes a main body cover 140, a front cover 141, an upper cover 142, a support member 143, a light emitting board 144, a light shielding member 145, and a plurality of light guide members 146a to 146c. The support member 143, the light emitting substrate 144, the light shielding member 145, and the plurality of light guide members 146a to 146c are covered by the main body cover 140, the front cover 141, and the upper cover 142. The front portion 141a of the front cover 141 is semi-transparent or transparent and has light transmittance. The front portion 141a is a surface that protrudes forward from the bottom to the top, and is arranged to form a light-transmitting surface that is inclined with respect to the vertical direction.

A support member 143 is attached to the inside of the main body cover 140. A light emitting board 144 is attached to the front part of the support member 143, and a light shielding member 145 is attached so as to be located in front of the light emitting board 144. A plurality of light guide members 146a to 146c are attached to the lower part of the light shielding member 145 at a predetermined distance from each other.

A plurality of LEDs 144a corresponding to a plurality of light guide members 146a to 146c are provided at the lower front surface of the light emitting board 144, and a plurality of LEDs 144a corresponding to the plurality of light guiding members 146a to 146c are provided at the upper front surface of the light emitting board 144. A plurality of LEDs 144b are provided corresponding to the openings 145c.

A partition wall 145a is formed in the light shielding member 145 so as to partition an upper part and a lower part thereof. A plurality of slits 145ba, 145bb, and 145bc are formed in the lower part of the light shielding member 145 so as to correspond to the plurality of light guide members 146a to 146c. A plurality of openings 145c are formed in the upper part of the light shielding member 145 so that LEDs 144b of a light emitting board 144, which will be described later, are exposed. The upper surface of the partition wall 145a of the light shielding member 145 has a surface finish that easily reflects the light from the LED 144b toward the front, and the peripheral edge of the opening 145c also has a concave surface to easily reflect the light from the LED 144b toward the front. It is formed in the shape of

Each of the plurality of light guide members 146a to 146c is formed of a plate-like member, and is formed into a substantially U-shape or a substantially V-shape when viewed from the front. The plurality of light guide members 146a to 146c are formed to be smaller as the light guide member 146b is smaller than the light guide member 146b. The member 146c is smaller. The plurality of light guide members 146a to 146c are located apart from each other by a predetermined distance.

As shown in FIG. 34, the plurality of light guide members 146a to 146c have rear entrance surfaces 146aa, 146ba, and 146ca that serve as light incidence surfaces, and front exit surfaces 146ab, 146bb, and 146cb that serve as light exit surfaces. The rear incident surfaces 146aa, 146ba, and 146ca are arranged to face the slits 145ba, 145bb, and 145bc of the light shielding member 145. The emission front end surfaces 146ab, 146bb, and 146cb are arranged along the front part 141a of the front cover 141 that is inclined with respect to the vertical direction.

The rear entrance surfaces 146aa, 146ba, and 146ca are formed in a sawtooth shape so as to have irregularities along the longitudinal direction, similar to the rear entrance surface 152a of the inner light guide member 152 of the right decorative member 15 described above. As a result, the light from the LED 144a that has entered the rear incident surfaces 146aa, 146ba, and 146ca travels inside the light guide members 146a to 146c while being diffused generally in the longitudinal direction. The front output surfaces 146ab, 146bb, and 146cb are formed in a so-called diamond-cut shape, similar to the front output surface 152b of the inner light guide member 152 of the right decorative member 15 described above. As a result, the light that has traveled from the incident rear end faces 146aa, 146ba, and 146ca into the light guide members 146a to 146c is irradiated forward with a certain degree of spread.

According to the central decoration unit 14a, the light emitted from the front end surfaces 146ab, 146bb, and 146cb of the plurality of light guide members 146a to 146c is guided outward through the front surface 141a of the front cover 141. However, the output front end surfaces 146ab, 146bb, and 146cb are located relatively close to the front surface portion 141a, and a long and narrow region with relatively strong light intensity is formed along the output front end surfaces 146ab, 146bb, and 146cb. In the lower region of the front cover 141, the light from the emission front end surfaces 146ab, 146bb, and 146cb appears in a plurality of lines. On the other hand, in the upper region of the front cover 141, the light from the plurality of LEDs 144b is diffusely reflected by the periphery of the opening 145c of the light shielding member 145, and is radiated outward through the front part 141a of the front cover 141. , since the light is guided to the front surface 141a as reflected light from the far back with respect to the front surface 141a than the output front end surfaces 146ab, 146bb, 146cb of the light guide members 146a to 146c, the average It appears as a wide light distribution where the light spreads out. That is, from diagonally below the front cover 141, which is the player's line of sight, a line-shaped light appears to stand out three-dimensionally from below in the uniformly vague light from above.

[Right side decorative unit 14b]
The right side decoration unit 14b performs an effect by emitting sound or emitting light at the start of a jackpot, for example. As shown in FIGS. 35 to 40, the right side decorative unit 14b includes a speaker unit 10A, a main body support member 147A, a main body cover 147B, a front cover 147C, a light emitting board 148, and a light guide member 149. The speaker unit 10A and the light emitting board 148 are attached to the rear part of the main body support member 147A, and the light emitting board 148 is attached to the front part of the speaker unit 10A. The light guide member 149 is attached inside the front side of the main body support member 147A, and is covered by the front cover 147C. The front surface 147Ca of the front cover 147C is formed in a mesh shape, and the vibration surface of the speaker 10b and the light guide member 149 are visible through the gap.

The speaker unit 10A has an opening (not shown) that exposes the vibration surface (sound output part) of the speaker 10b toward the front, and a light emitting board 148 is attached along the periphery of this opening. A plurality of LEDs 148a are provided on the light emitting board 148 so as to be arranged in a ring along the periphery of the speaker 10b.

An opening 147Aa is formed in the main body support member 147A to expose the vibration surface of the speaker 10b and the plurality of LEDs 148a of the light emitting board 148, and to which a light guide member 149 can be attached to the periphery.

The light guide member 149 includes a cylindrical portion 149a for guiding the sound generated on the vibration surface of the speaker 10b forward, an incident rear end surface 149b that is on the rear side of the periphery of the cylindrical portion 149a and serves as a light incident surface, and a periphery of the cylindrical portion 149a. It has an emission front end surface 149c that is on the front side and serves as a light emission surface, and a protrusion 149d that extends and extends forward from the periphery of the emission front end surface 149c.

A vibrating surface of the speaker 10b is arranged at the rear of the cylindrical portion 149a, and the sound generated on the vibrating surface is guided forward through the cylindrical portion 149a. The incident rear end surface 1449b is arranged to face the LED 148a of the light emitting board 148. The rear entrance surface 149b is formed in a sawtooth shape so as to be uneven along the circumferential direction, similar to the rear entrance surface 152a of the inner light guiding member 152 of the right decorative member 15 described above. Thereby, the light from the LED 148a that has entered the incident rear end surface 149b travels through the cylindrical portion 149a while being diffused generally in the circumferential direction.

The emission front end surface 149c is located a predetermined distance rearward from the front surface 147Ca of the front cover 147C. The output front end surface 149c is also formed in a sawtooth shape so as to have irregularities along the circumferential direction, similarly to the entrance rear end surface 149b. Thereby, the light that has proceeded from the incident rear end surface 149b to the cylindrical portion 149a is irradiated forward so as to appear ring-shaped while spreading mainly in the circumferential direction when viewed from the front.

The protruding portion 149d is formed so that a portion on both left and right sides partially extends forward, and the protruding portion 149d is arranged such that its tip abuts the back side of the front surface 147Ca of the front cover 147C. Note that the protrusion 149d may be arranged close to the back side of the front surface 147Ca without being in contact with it. Further, instead of the protruding portion 149d, the output front end surface 149c may be arranged so as to be in contact with the back side of the front surface 147Ca, or may be arranged so as to be close to the front surface 147Ca.

According to the right side decoration unit 14b, it is possible to create an effect in which the area around the speaker 10b appears to shine in a ring shape in accordance with the sound generated from the speaker 10b. Further, since the front surface 147Ca of the front cover 147C is formed in a mesh shape, it is easily damaged by external impact or pressure, but it is reinforced and supported by the contact with the protrusion 149d of the light guide member 149. This allows it to effectively prevent damage from external impact or pressure. In other words, the mesh-like (lattice-like) front cover 147C allows the sound from the speaker 10b to be guided along the light guide member 149 to the back surface of the front cover 147C, so that the sound from the speaker 10b can be transmitted without any hindrance without spoiling the aesthetic appearance. It can be communicated to the outside world.
Furthermore, since the light guide member 149 functions as a support member for the front cover 147C, the rigidity of the front cover 147C can be increased.

According to the gaming machine according to the present embodiment described above, the following effects can be obtained.

According to the configuration of the speaker unit 10 and its surroundings, an air flow flows out from the opening 10ec of the enclosure 10e as sound is output from the speaker 10c. At this time, when the opening/closing member 115 of the ventilation mechanism 110 is in the state where the space portion 110a is opened, the airflow from the opening 10ec is guided in a direction straight toward the ventilation port 80, and from the ventilation port 80 toward the firing handle 26b. The wind flows with sufficient wind pressure. As a result, the player can feel the wind in his hand holding the firing handle 26b, and can also feel the sound from the speaker 10c to be deep bass due to the Helmholtz resonance with the sound output from the air outlet 80 along with the wind.

On the other hand, when the opening/closing member 115 of the ventilation mechanism 110 closes the space 110a and the airflow from the opening 10ec is guided in a direction that curves downward at a substantially right angle to the space 110a, the Wind is exhausted from the vent 8ca of the cover 8c, and is no longer guided to the firing handle 26b. As a result, the player can feel only the sound from the speaker 10c as deep bass due to the Helmholtz resonance with the sound output from the vent 8ca along with the wind, without feeling the wind in the hand holding the firing handle 26b. .

That is, by simply switching the direction of the air flowing out from the opening 10ec of the speaker unit 10 using the blower mechanism 110, it is possible to make the user feel both bass and wind, or only the bass, thereby making the speaker unit 10 smaller and simpler. It is possible to flexibly perform performances using sound and wind while aiming for the same.

In addition, by simply switching the direction of the air coming out of the opening 10ec of the speaker unit 10 using the blower mechanism 110, it is possible to make the user feel the sound and the wind, or only the sound. Since the air outlet 80 and the air outlet 8ca are formed in the air outlet 8c and the air blower mechanism 110 is arranged between these and the speaker unit 10, the manufacturing cost can be reduced for the speaker unit 10 and its surrounding configuration. It is possible to achieve excellent design flexibility and maintainability.

In addition, even the speaker unit 10 of a bass reflex type with a relatively large volume of the enclosure 10e can be placed in a space where it does not interfere with the hands of the player who handles the game balls stored in the upper tray 17 and the lower tray 18. , the speaker device can be efficiently laid out while securing the arrangement space for the speaker unit 10.

Further, the upper left 10ea of the enclosure 10e abuts the bottom of the upper pan body 17p and the lower left 10eb abuts the lower pan body 18p, so that it supports the upper pan 17p and also supports the sound from the enclosure 10e in response to the operation of the speaker 10c. The vibrations are transmitted to the upper tray 17 and the lower tray 18, and the clogging of the game balls in the upper tray 17 and the lower tray 18 can be effectively eliminated by this vibration.

Furthermore, the first operation effect using the operation member 2000 is set to occur more frequently than the second operation effect using the press button 3000. In other words, the operation member 2000 that is used more frequently is operated. While it is provided independently in the unit 9A, a press button 3000 that is used infrequently is provided on a common board 3200 that also serves as the ball rental button 23 and the return button 24, so the operating member 2000 and the press button can be placed in an easy-to-use position depending on the frequency of use. By arranging the buttons 3000 individually, wiring to each board can be simplified, and as a result, manufacturing costs and arrangement space can be reduced.

In addition, the frequently used operation member 2000 can be remembered as a circular shape, while the less frequently used press button 3000 can be easily remembered as a rectangular shape different from the circular shape. can be provided as an easily distinguishable external shape, which in turn makes it easier to use a plurality of operating means. Furthermore, since the rectangular push button 3000 and the cross-shaped push button 3100 are arranged adjacent to each other so that some of their linear ends face each other, even in a narrow space, a plurality of these buttons can be easily pressed. buttons can be placed.

In addition, when the conditions for transitioning to a gaming state advantageous to the player, such as a 16R normal jackpot or a 16R variable probability jackpot, are met, a light irradiation effect is always executed, and a ventilation effect may be executed at the same time, so the player is able to sense that a light irradiation effect or air blowing effect is being executed by either visual or tactile sense of the hand holding the firing handle 26b, and shifts to an advantageous gaming state without missing such a effect. can sense what is going on. Further, when the air blowing effect is executed, a sound effect using deep bass sounds from the speaker 10c is also executed at the same time, and the vibrations caused by the deep bass sounds can also be felt.

Further, for example, in the right side decorative member 15, at the incident rear end surfaces 152a of the outer light guide member 151 and the inner light guide member 152, the light is diffused and incident in the longitudinal direction where the LEDs are lined up by sawtooth lens cuts. While the light travels efficiently within the light guide, at the front output end face 152b of the outer light guide member 151 and the inner light guide member 152, the light guided from the rear end face 152a of incidence into the light guide is passed through a diamond-cut lens. Since the light can be efficiently scattered outward by cutting, color unevenness can be eliminated and light can be efficiently irradiated.

Further, for example, in the right side decorative unit 14b, the protrusion 149d of the light guide member 149 is arranged so as to come into contact with the back surface of the mesh-like front surface 147Ca of the front cover 147C, and the output front end surface 149c is separated from the front surface 147Ca by a predetermined distance. Since the speaker 10b is arranged in an annular manner along its periphery so as not to obstruct its vibration surface, the LED 148a located on the side of the rear end surface 149b of incidence can be hidden from view from the front of the front cover 147C, without spoiling the aesthetic appearance. Sound from the speaker 10b can be emitted outward without any problem.

Further, for example, in the central decoration unit 14a, the emission front end surfaces 146ab, 146bb, and 146cb of the plurality of light guide members 146a to 146c are located at a distance farther from the light emitting substrate 144 than the peripheral edge of the opening 145c of the light shielding member 145 where the LED 144b is exposed. Since the light from the LED 144b is diffusely reflected at the peripheral edge of the opening 145c and guided forward, the light from the LED 144b passes through the body of the light guide members 146a to 146c and is disposed near the front face 141a of the front cover 141. , 146bb, 146cb, the light of the LED 144a is on average diffused light and line-shaped light, which can cause a clear difference in the visibility of these lights, and even create novel light. It is possible to realize the performance of

Note that as a modification of the blowing mechanism 110, one shown in FIG. 41 may be applied. The blower mechanism 110 shown in FIG. 41 is provided with a rotatable shutter member 117 that can exclusively open and close the lower part of the space 110a and the opening 110b. As shown in FIG. 41(a), the shutter member 117 is positioned in a horizontal position when guiding the flow of wind from the opening 10ec (not shown) to the opening 110b. At this time, the wind is completely no longer guided below the space 110a. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 41(b), when guiding the wind flow from the opening 10ec (not shown) downward into the space 110a, the shutter member 117 is rotated from the horizontal position shown in FIG. 41(a). position so that it moves and assumes an upright position. At this time, the flow of wind that tends to go straight to the side of the space 110a is obstructed, and the wind is guided to curve downward at a substantially right angle to the space 110a. According to such a blower mechanism 110, when guiding the wind to the blower port 80 (not shown), the wind can be guided to the blower port 80 with sufficient wind pressure without leaking downward to the space 110a. Can be done.

The player's attention can be drawn to the decorated decorations. As described above, the decorations applied to the third surface 4213 of the lower rotating decoration body 4210 and the third surface 4413 of the upper rotating decoration body 4410 are related (for example, the decorations applied to the third surface 4213 and the third surface The decorations on 4413 are combined to form an integrated shape.) Furthermore, the area of the surfaces facing forward in the third state (third surface 4213 and third surface 4413) is the area of the surfaces facing forward in the second state (second surface 4212 and second surface 4412). becomes smaller than

Note that when the second surface 4212 of the lower rotating decorative body 4210 and the second surface 4412 of the upper rotating decorative body 4410 come close to each other when switching to the third state, the The protrusions 4212a and the protrusions 4412a formed at the four corners of the second surface 4412 abut each other. In this way, since the protrusions 4212a and 4412a are in contact with each other, the second surface 4212 (more specifically, the decoration etc. applied to the second surface 4212) and the second surface 4412 (more specifically, , decorations applied to the second surface 4412, etc.). In this way, the protrusions 4212a and 4412a can prevent the decorations from coming into contact with each other, thereby preventing damage to the decorations.

The switching between the initial state, first state, second state, and third state described above is controlled by the sub-control board 33 (production device control circuit 338) as described above, and any one state It is possible to switch from to any other state. The effect pattern by switching the state in this manner is determined based on the result of the jackpot lottery and a predetermined effect lottery table.

In addition, when switching each state as described above, the vertical positions of the lower rotating decorative body 4210 and the upper rotating decorative body 4410 are detected by the appropriate sensors as described above, and based on the detected values of the sensors, The vertical position of the lower rotating decorative body 4210 and the like is adjusted. For example, the vertical position of the lower rotating decorative body 4210 etc. in each state is detected by a sensor, or the vertical position of the lower rotating decorative body 4210 etc. in at least one of each state is detected by a sensor, and the corresponding position It is possible to switch to another state (adjust the amount of vertical movement) using this as a reference.

In addition, in the above description, the effects mainly caused by the movement of the lower rotating decoration 4210, the upper rotating decoration 4410, the left movable decoration 5120, and the right movable decoration 5220 have been described, but the lower rotating decoration In addition to the movement of the body 4210 etc. (switching between the above states), the display of the display device (liquid crystal display device 4) provided behind the lower rotating decoration body 4210 etc. is appropriately controlled, and the display by the display device is It is also possible to create a performance that combines images. In particular, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 74 (third state), the protrusion 4212a formed on the second surface 4212 and the protrusion 4412a formed on the second surface 4412 abut each other, so that the state shown in FIG. (in the second state), between the upper and lower decorative bodies (lower rotating decorative body 4210 and upper rotating decorative body 4410) (particularly at locations other than the contact points between the protruding portions 4212a and the protruding portions 4412a). A gap (gap) is created. For this reason, it is desirable to perform an effect (image effect) in which a display device (liquid crystal display device 4) behind the gap displays an image that complements the gap. As the image, it is desirable to use an image that has relevance and a sense of unity with the decorations placed on the front surfaces (player side surfaces) of the lower rotating decoration 4210 and the upper rotating decoration 4410. Also, as shown in FIG. 70 (second state) and FIG. 74 (third state), the upper and lower decorations (lower rotating decoration 4210 and upper rotating decoration 4410) are close to each other to complete one decoration. In this state, it is desirable to perform a video production corresponding to the completed decoration on a display device (liquid crystal display device 4) that can be viewed from above and below the decoration.

Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above configuration, and various modifications can be made within the scope of the invention described in the claims.

Thereby, the relative positions of the lower rotating decorative body 4210 and the upper rotating decorative body 4410 can be adjusted. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and similar engagement protrusions and engagement recesses may be formed on other surfaces to adjust the relative positions of the lower rotating decorative body 4210 and the upper rotating decorative body 4410. It is also possible to configure it as follows. For example, since the lower rotating decorative body 4210 and the upper rotating decorative body 4410 are close to each other even in the third state, the engaging convex portions are formed on the second surface 4212 and the second surface 4412 that face each other in the third state. An engagement recess may be formed.

Further, in this embodiment, in the third state, the liquid crystal display device 4 is made to display an image that complements the gap formed between the lower rotating decorative body 4210 and the upper rotating decorative body 4410. . However, the present invention is not limited to this, and even in other states (for example, the second state), the liquid crystal display device 4 can be used to form a It may also be configured to display an image that complements the gap between the images.

Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the engagement recess 4214b is formed in the lower rotating decorative body 4210, and the engaging protrusion 4414b is formed in the upper rotating decorative body 4410, but the present invention is not limited to this. isn't it. For example, it is also possible to form the engagement protrusion 4414b on the lower rotating decoration body 4210 and the engagement recess 4214b on the upper rotation decoration body 4410.

Further, in the present embodiment, the relative positions of each other are adjusted by the inclined surface 4214d of the engagement recess 4214b and the inclined surface 4414d of the engagement protrusion 4414b, but the present invention is not limited to this. do not have. For example, even if an inclined surface is formed only on either the engagement recess 4214b or the engagement protrusion 4414b, the relative position between the engagement recess 4214b and the engagement protrusion 4414b can be adjusted.

Based on the above embodiments, an outline of the present invention will be listed below.
