FIG. 5 is a block diagram of one embodiment of the present invention. The configuration and simple operation will be explained. The plurality of pachinko gaming machines 1 are each provided with a hit ball detector MC and a safe ball detector S. Here, the term "hitted ball" refers to a ball that a player hits into the pachinko machine 1 using a borrowed pachinko ball for playing, and in other words, it is related to the number of balls that is profitable for the game parlor. It can be said to be profit-related information. In addition, a safe ball is a pachinko ball that has entered a safe hole, etc.
Based on this, a predetermined number of prize balls are paid out to the player, so in other words, this can be said to be disadvantageous ball related information related to the number of balls that is disadvantageous to the gaming parlor. Note that it may be possible to detect an out ball instead of detecting a hit ball, or to detect a prize ball or a supply ball instead of a safe ball, or to detect a payout command signal for a prize ball or a replenishment command signal for a supply ball. It may also be detected. In any case, it is only necessary to detect profitable ball related information related to the number of balls that is profitable for the gaming parlor and unprofitable ball related information related to the number of balls that is disadvantageous to the gaming parlor. The batted ball detector MC
The out ball detector constitutes a profit ball related information detecting means that detects profit ball related information related to the number of balls that are profitable for the gaming hall. In addition, the safe ball detector S, the prize ball detector, the supply ball detector, the prize ball payout command signal, and the supply ball command signal detector detects disadvantageous balls related to the number of balls that are disadvantageous to the gaming hall. A disadvantageous related information detection means for detecting related information is configured. Further, the profit ball related information detection means and the disadvantage ball related information detection means constitute a game related information detection means that detects information related to the gaming state of the pachinko game machine for each pachinko game machine. ing. Output pulse a of the batted ball detector MC
And the output pulse b of the safe sphere detector S is given to the counter CT. The counter CT counts the hit balls and safe balls for each pachinko game machine 1, and provides the counting output to the memory M1. The memory M1 stores the number of batted balls and the number of safe balls for each pachinko game machine 1, and also stores the difference between the number of safe balls and the number of batted balls calculated by the calculation unit AU.
Note that the number of batted balls, the number of safe pitches, and the difference argument can be determined by calculation if any two of them are known, so the memory M1 stores the number of batted balls, the number of safe pitches, and the difference argument. It is also possible to store at least two numerical values out of the number of pitches and the subtraction value. Furthermore, preferably, the memory M1 stores the total number of balls hit and the number of safe balls for each pachinko game machine 1 during a certain period (for example, one day), and stores the total number of balls hit by each customer each time the customer changes. Memorize the number of pitches and the number of safe pitches. Information regarding the difference of each pachinko game machine 1 stored in this memory M1 (for example, the difference between the number of profitable balls and the number of unprofitable balls, or the difference between the number of profitable balls and the number of unprofitable balls converted into a monetary amount), i.e. The difference argument related information is given to the termination control unit HC. This stop control unit HC gives a stop signal c to the pachinko game machine 1 when the difference related information of each pachinko game machine 1 stored in the memory M1 reaches a predetermined stop setting number. Controls the stop and displays the stop.

Each of the plurality of ball lending machines PL1 to PLn is provided with means (ball lending amount information generating means) for detecting and outputting the ball lending machine (ball lending amount information). The ball lending number detection output of each ball lending machine is temporarily stored in the memory M2. When ball rental data is commanded to be derived by operating the operation panel OP2, the ball rental number information stored in the memory M2 is read out and given to the arithmetic unit AU for calculation processing. For example, when a customer inserts a coin into a certain ball rental machine PLn and borrows a predetermined number of pachinko balls to play, the ball rental detector generates one pulse in response to each coin insertion. If so, the number of pulses equal to the number of coin insertions is stored in the memory M2. This number of pulses is the calculation unit AU
is given, the calculation unit AU calculates the total number of balls rented by the ball lending machine by multiplying the number of pachinko balls released in response to one coin insertion by the number of pulses. In this way, for example, when information on the total number of balls rented from a certain ball rental machine in a day is given to the central processing/control unit CAC, the central processing/control unit CAC transmits the total information to the output control unit CC and the output adapter. It is applied to the J printer JRP via OA for printing and recording, it is applied to the display device DIS for display, and it is further applied to the magnetic disk MD2 for magnetic recording.

Each output of the operation panels OP1 to OP3 is given to the central processing and control unit CAC as operation command information. In addition, the magnetic disk MD1 reads a magnetic sheet on which program setting information is recorded in advance,

In addition, when creating a sales/prize exchange statistical table for each ball rental machine PL1 to PLn, specify all of the ball rental machines PL1 to PLn using the numerical keys NK included in the operation panel OP2, and store them in the memory M2. The number of balls rented from each ball rental machine is read out. This read information is once magnetically recorded on a magnetic sheet by the magnetic disk MD2. In this way, after recording the number of balls rented from each ball rental machine for one month on the magnetic sheet, the recorded information on the magnetic sheet is read out with the magnetic disk MD1, and the read information is sent to the printer PR as shown in FIG. Print and record the sales/prize exchange statistical table as shown in b. The memory M2 stores information on the total ball rental amount for the entire gaming hall on a daily basis, and information on the total premium exchange amount on a daily basis for all the prizes exchanged during the business hours of the entire gaming hall on a daily basis. An information recording means is configured to record information necessary for printing as long-term storage information. Note that this information may be recorded on an external recording medium such as a magnetic sheet.

In addition, when creating a daily product inventory report, enter product inventory information by operating the alpha keys AK and numeric keys TK included in the operation panel OP3, and record the information in a predetermined area of the magnetic sheet using the magnetic disk MD2. let After sequentially inputting product inventory information, the information recorded on the magnetic sheet is read out onto the magnetic disk MD1. This read information is printed and recorded by printer PR.
