Abstract

PURPOSE:To cause a condition with a high prize winning rate advantageous to a player to appear by continuously maintaining the condition with the high prize winning rate to appear once repeatedly many times only when other definite conditions are satisfied. CONSTITUTION:When hit balls win prizes to start-up ports B and D, roulette chuckers A-E and a variable display part 12 start a variable display game, a first display part is variably stopped by a signal from a stop switch 15 or a timer circuit 156, and the next display part is variably stopped in a delay for a prescribed time by a timer circuit 152, flip-flops 106 and 107, etc. When the result display mode of a game device is made into a specific mode, fluctuation prize-winning devices 13a-13c are converted to a second condition to easily accept the hit balls, and the condition is maintained until the prescribed conditions set beforehand are achieved. When the hit balls accepted in the second condition are detected by a continuous prize winning detector 244, the fluctuation prize-winning devices are repeatedly converted to the second condition again under the prescribed conditions.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a pachinko machine, and in particular, the present invention relates to a pachinko machine, and in particular, to a pachinko machine based on a game result executed on a game device in response to a winning in a specific winning opening.
By varying the variable winning device in various ways, it is possible to make a state with a high winning rate appear for a certain period of time, and if another certain condition is met, this state with a high winning rate that appeared once This invention relates to a new pachinko machine configured to allow further continuation of the game.

[Prior Art] As is well known, a pachinko machine has a plurality of winning openings, variable winning devices with operating characteristics, and gaming devices appropriately arranged on the game board, so that players can If the batted ball that is fired wins a prize with a certain probability, a certain number of prize balls will be ejected to the player accordingly, or a specific variable winning device will increase the winning rate of the next ball. It is subject to change. In conventional pachinko machines like this, the movement of the variable prize winning device itself has characteristics,
By linking a specific variable winning device to other variable winning devices or game devices to make interesting movements, pachinko games can be prevented from becoming monotonous, and players can improve their gaming skills. It has been devised so that a certain number of prize balls can be uniformly obtained regardless of how bad the ball is.

Also, what can be said in common with such conventional pachinko machines is that even if a particular variable winning device changes to a form that makes it easier for batted balls to win, this state where it is easier to win will not change to this variable winning device. It is only maintained for a short period of time, such as until the next winning ball occurs or for a predetermined period of time, and is not maintained continuously for a long period of time. Therefore, while the variable prize winning device is changing so that it is easy to win a prize with a batted ball, players who want to win more prize balls are encouraged to continue for a long time in a state where it is easy to win a prize with a batted ball. Conventional pachinko machines that are not configured to do this have not always been able to satisfy the requirements.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Therefore, it is desired to create a new pachinko machine that satisfies the above requirements and doubles the interest of players by adding some new mechanism to the pachinko machine. Ta.

[Means and effects for solving the problems] The pachinko machine according to the present invention has been devised in view of the above points, and is capable of achieving a state with a high winning rate that once appears when certain conditions are met during the game. However, it is configured so that it can be maintained repeatedly and repeatedly only if another certain condition is met, so that a state with a high winning rate that is advantageous to the player appears over a long period of time. To provide a pachinko machine with functions that can

[Example code] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an external view of a pachinko machine according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Next, each component will be explained within the scope particularly relevant to the present invention. In the figure, a gaming section 11 of a pachinko machine 10 includes roulette chuckers A to E, a visible display section 12 of a slot game device, and a variable prize winning device! 13a to 13e, etc. are arranged.

The roulette chuckers A to E are winning devices that have a structure in which a light emitting element such as a small lamp or a light emitting diode is integrated into a normally widely used non-variable winning device. , which constitutes a roulette game device which is one of the game devices described below. To give an overview of the roulette game in this example, Roulette Chutker A
When the five lighting positions of ~E start moving under a certain condition, and the movement of the lighting positions stops under another certain condition, which lamp among the five lamps is lit? In other words, it is a game where the problem is where the blinking movement of a lamp stops.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a specific configuration of the visible display section 12 of a slot game device, which is another game device in this embodiment. That is, the visible display unit 12 includes two numeric display elements (for example, segment displays>12a, 12b) that can continuously display numbers from "0" to "9".
The outline of the slot game in this embodiment is as follows:
When 2a and 12b start their display movement under a certain specific condition and their display movement stops under another certain condition, the question is what combination of two numeric displays causes the display movement to stop. It refers to games.

In the pachinko machine of this embodiment, the specific condition for starting the operation of the roulette game device and the slot game device is roulette chucker B or D (hereinafter, specific roulette chucker B) among the five roulette chuckers A to E. , D), and one of the conditions for stopping the operation of both game devices is for the player to press the stop switch 15 located on the left side of the front of the Pachinko machine. ing. Therefore, roulette chuckers B and D, which are specific roulette chuckers, are equipped with a first specific winning detector for detecting the occurrence of a winning ball.

FIG. 3 shows a variable prize winning device 13a in which a pair of movable wing pieces opens and closes by energizing and deenergizing a solenoid.

It is an exploded view showing the specific structure of 13b and 13c.

A variable prize bag that opens and closes movable wings using the driving force of a solenoid? Although If13 itself is well known, its operating principle will be briefly explained next.

When the solenoid 31 fixed to the back side of the board 30 with screws etc. is energized, its driving force is applied to the pair of movable blades 32, 32.
an actuating pin 3 fixed to and passing through the substrate 3o;
3.33 is transmitted via the gear mechanism 34, whereby the pair of movable blades 32 and 32 open and close around the introduction port 35 bored in the base plate. The illustrated variable winning device 13 is of a type in which when the solenoid 31 is deenergized, the movable wing pieces 32, 32 are completely closed, eliminating any possibility of winning. Like the tulip-type winning device, even when the movable wings are closed, there is still room for one pachinko ball in the pair of movable wings, so there is still a chance of winning! In addition, among the three variable winning devices 13a, 13b, and 13c in the example pachinko machine, especially 13b continues the variable winning bag rIt13a, 13b, 13c based on the winning to this 13b. A variable winning device (hereinafter referred to as specific variable winning device 1) equipped with a second specific winning detector that issues a continuous command signal for opening the game board to a control device 16, which will be described later and is arranged on the back side of the game board.
3b).

Next, the main components include the two types of game devices mentioned above, a plurality of variable prize winning devices, a game stop switch,
Furthermore, the characteristic specific operation of the pachinko machine of the present invention, which is equipped with a control device on the back side of the game board, will be explained as follows.

When a ball hit by a player lands in either specific roulette chutker B or D, the
Both the roulette game device and the slot game device simultaneously start their respective predetermined operations. That is,
As described above, the roulette game device starts moving the lighting position of the lamp, and the slot game device starts moving the number display. Next, when the player operates the stop switch 15 to stop the movement of both game devices, the slot game device first stops the display movement of its visible display section 12, and then, a moment later, the roulette game device starts moving. Stops moving the lighting position of the lamp. The following three types of gaming benefits are given to the player depending on whether the game result when both game devices stop operating is a favorable combination.

That is, (1) When the lighting position of the lamp in the roulette game device stops at the C-chutker, and the number display on the slot game device stops at the combination of "77" (hereinafter, this case will be referred to as the occurrence of a specific mode). ), the variable winning devices 13a, 13b, and 13c sequentially open, and this state in which it is easy for a batted ball to win a prize continues for 30 seconds.

(2) The number displayed on the slot game device is “77”
However, if the lighting position of the lamp in the roulette game machine stops at a place other than the C chutker, the variable winning devices 13a, 13b, and 13c will open sequentially, and this state in which the ball is likely to win will become 10. Lasts for seconds.

(3) If the game results of the roulette game device and the slot game device stop in a combination other than the above (1) and (2), the same variable prize winning devices 13a and 13b
, 13c are sequentially opened, and this state in which it is easy for a batted ball to win a prize continues for only 5 seconds.

In particular, when (1) specific n machines occur, during the 30 seconds when variable winning devices 13a, 13b, and 13c are open, one ball hits 6 balls in specific variable winning device 13b. If a prize is won, the variable prize winning device 13a opens in response to this.

13b and 13c are all once closed and then sequentially opened again, so that a state in which it is easy for a batted ball to win a prize will appear again for 30 seconds. Thereafter, on the condition that a winning ball occurs in the specific variable winning device 13b during the opening operation of the variable winning device, the above series of operations will be repeated, so that the state in which it is easy for a batted ball to win will be for 30 seconds. As long as the condition that a winning ball is generated in the specific variable winning device 13b is met each time, it will be repeated repeatedly.

In this way, the greatest feature of the pachinko machine of the present invention, which is not found in conventional pachinko machines, is that the state in which the ball is likely to win can be repeatedly m@ as long as certain conditions are met each time. The pachinko machine of the present invention is characterized by the control of repeated and continuous motions in which the ball is likely to win a prize, as well as the operation control of the game device;
Judgment of game results and the like are performed by a control device 16 disposed on the back side of the game board, and one embodiment of the circuit diagram of the control device 16 shown in FIG. 4 will be described in detail below.

The control circuit shown in FIG. 4 is roughly divided into a game control section 100 for controlling the operation of the game device, and a game control section 100 for determining game results and controlling a plurality of variable prize winning devices in various ways including the above-mentioned continuous operation. It can be divided into a main control section 200 for controlling the system.

First, how the roulette game and the slot game are executed by the game control unit 100 based on winnings of balls hit to the specific chuckker B equipped with the specific win detector 98 or the specific chuckker D equipped with the specific win detector 99. I will explain about it. A game start command signal from the winning detector 98 or 99 based on the winning is sent to the OR gate 10.
2 to the winning register 103. The output of the winning register 103 is given as one input to the AND game 104. At that time, the AND gate 104
If a low level signal is inverted and a high level signal (hereinafter referred to as H signal) is provided to the other input of the AND gate 101. t
) (deriving the signal, flip-flops 105, 106,
107 at the same time. In addition, if the batted ball enters a specific chutzker B or D consecutively, or if a batted ball enters a specific chutzker B or D during the opening operation as described later by the variable winning device based on the previous winnings, , a game start command signal issued later is temporarily stored in the entered prize register 103.

The set output (H signal) of the flip-flop 105 is A
A pulse signal is applied to one input of the ND gate 108, but since a pulse signal is constantly applied to the other input from the pulse oscillator 109, the AND gate 108 outputs a signal from the ring counter 110 at the same time as the flip-flop 105 is set. A clock pulse will be sent to the clock signal input terminal CK. The ring counter 110 sequentially increments the terminals that output the H signal from terminal 0 to terminal 5 in synchronization with this tarock pulse. Since the signal is applied to the reset input terminal R via the OR gate 111, while receiving the clock pulse from the AND gate 108, the signal is applied between terminals 0 to 4 to which the driver circuit 112 is connected. It operates to sequentially and cyclically output H signals. The driver circuit 112 receives the outputs of the respective output terminals 0, 1, 2, 3.4 of the ring counter 110, and outputs the respective roulette chucks 〇 and D.

Lamps c and d installed in E, A, and B, respectively.

Make e, a, and b blink in sequence. As a result, the lighting position of the lamp is continuously moved on the game board of the pachinko machine, similar to a so-called roulette game.

Next, a slot game device that starts operating when flip-flops 106 and 107 are set will be described. The set output (H signal) of the flip-flop 106 is applied to one input of an AND gate 120. The AND gate 120 is constantly supplied with a pulse signal from the pulse oscillator 121 to its other input, and simultaneously sends a clock pulse to the clock signal input terminal CK of the decimal counter 122 when the flip-flop 106 is set. This decimal counter 122 is an AND
It counts the number of tarock pulses sent from the gate 120 and sequentially outputs BCD outputs to its output terminals QA to QO. And driver circuit 12
3 is the sequentially changing BCD of this decimal counter 122.
Upon receiving the output, the number display element 12b is driven. In response to this, the number display element 12b sequentially moves to display the numbers "0" to "9". The display movement of the numeric display element 12a is based on the set output (H signal) of the flip-flop 107, and the AND gate 130 and the pulse oscillator 131.1
This is performed by a circuit composed of a 0-base counter 132 and a driver circuit 133, and the circuit configuration and operating principle are based on an AND operation for controlling and driving the numerical display element 12b.
Since it is exactly the same as the circuit described above, which is composed of a gate 120, a decimal counter 122, etc., no particular explanation will be given here.

The blinking speed of the lamp in the roulette game device can be easily changed by adjusting the oscillation cycle of the pulse oscillator 109.

Further, the number display element 12b in the slot game device
, 12a is determined by the pulse oscillator 121,1.
This can be easily changed by adjusting the oscillation period of 31.

Next, a description will be given of how the roulette game device and the slot game device, which have started predetermined operations in the above-described processes, respectively, stop their operations.

If the player now operates the game stop switch 15 to stop the game operation, the signal (H signal) from the switch 15 first resets the flip-flop 107 via the OR gate 150. As a result, A
After the flip-flop 107 was set, the clock pulses that were continuously sent from the ND gate 130 to the decimal counter 132 were cut off, so the decimal counter 132
stops the counting operation, and accordingly, the display movement of the number display element 12a first stops. The reset output (H signal) of the flip-flop 107 is then given to the timer circuit 152, and the timer circuit 152 issues an H signal after a certain period of time (for example, 1 second) and resets the flip-flop 106. By resetting the flip-flop 106, the decimal counter 122 stops counting in this case as well, and the display movement of the number display element 12b stops. Then, the reset output (H signal) of the flip-flop 106 is given to the timer circuit 154, and the timer circuit 154
also emits an H signal after a certain period of time (for example, 1 second), and the flip 70 knob 105 is reset accordingly. As a result, the ring counter 110 stops its increment operation based on the fact that the clock pulses that have been continuously sent out from the AND gate 108 are cut off. As a result, the blinking operation of the lamp is stopped at the lamp corresponding to the output terminal □ which is outputting the H signal when the ring counter 110 stops the stepping operation.

In the pachinko machine according to the embodiment of the present invention, in addition to the manual stop circuit described above, the pachinko machine according to the embodiment of the present invention is equipped with an automatic stop circuit that automatically stops the game operation after a certain period of time has passed after the start of the game, in addition to the manual stop circuit described above. This automatic stop circuit is
It is composed of a timer circuit 156 and the OR gate 150. The timer circuit 156 connected to the set output terminal of the flip-flop 107 sets the flip-flop 107 as described above based on the winning of the specific roulette chucker B or D, and after the set output is given, the timer circuit 156 operates for a certain period of time ( For example, after 8 seconds have elapsed, an H signal is derived and is passed through the OR gate 150 to the flip-flop 1.
Reset 07.

In response to this, the movement of the numeric display of the numeric display element 12a is stopped, as described above. The process from when the flip-flop 106 is reset to when the display movement of the numeric display element 12b is stopped, and from when the flip-flop 105 is reset to when the flashing movement of the lamp is stopped, is based on the operation of the stop switch 15 described above. By adopting this automatic stop circuit, which is exactly the same as the process of stopping each roulette chuckker B or D, and which does not require any explanation, the game device that once started a game operation based on a winning on specific roulette chuck cars B or D can It is possible to prevent the occurrence of a failure caused by the device continuing to operate for a long time because the stop switch 15 is not operated. In addition, since the operation of the game device is automatically stopped by this automatic stop circuit, the player must operate the stop switch 15 each time there is a winning ball in the specific roulette chutker B or D. It also has the advantage of reducing inconvenience.

In addition to this game automatic stop circuit as a characteristic circuit, the game control unit 100 described above includes a specific mode occurrence monitor circuit that allows the specific mode to occur at any time and is convenient when inspecting the control device. , is equipped with a probability control circuit that makes it possible to change the probability of occurrence of a specific mode in several stages, but the details of these will be described later. Also, the variable prize winning device 13a.

13b, 13c are energized and controlled, and how the opening operation of the variable winning devices 13a, 13b, 13c is continuously maintained based on the winning of the specific variable winning device 13b. It is possible to prevent failures caused by continuous production. In addition, since the operation of the game device is automatically stopped by this automatic stop circuit, the player must operate the stop switch 15 each time there is a winning ball in the specific roulette chutker B or D. It also has the advantage of reducing inconvenience.

In addition to this game automatic stop circuit as a characteristic circuit, the game control unit 100 described above includes a specific mode occurrence monitor circuit that allows the specific mode to occur at any time and is convenient when inspecting the control device. ,identification! It is equipped with a probability control circuit that allows the probability of occurrence of the mode to be changed in several stages, but the details of these will be described later. Also, the variable prize winning device 13a.

13b, 13c are energized and controlled, and furthermore, how the opening operation of the variable winning devices 13a+13b, 13c is continuously maintained based on the winning of the specific variable winning device 13b. Regarding the main control unit 200
The explanation will focus on the operation.

First, a case will be described in which the number display on the slot game device is "77" and the lighting position of the lamp on the roulette game device stops at the C-chutker, that is, a case where a specific aspect occurs as a game result.

The number display element 12a of the slot game device shows the number "7"
Stopping at this means that the output terminal rQA QB QCQD J of the decimal counter 132 outputs "0111", and similarly the number display element 12b outputs the number "7".
'' means that the output terminal rQA QB QCQD J of the decimal counter 122 outputs ``roll''. Output terminal Q of decimal counter 132
B, QC, QD and the output terminals QB, QC, QD of the decimal counter 122 are multi-input AND gates 201
The AND gate 201 derives an H signal only when the game result of the roulette game device is "77". The H signal derived from AND gate 201 is passed through AND gate 202 and AND gate 250.
is applied to each of the −6 inputs of the AND gate 27
It is inverted to 0 and given as a prohibited input. Also, the H signal output to the terminal O of the ring counter 110 is
Since it is applied to the other input of the D gate 202, the AND
The gate 202 provides an H signal to one input of the AND gate 220, and also provides an H signal to one input of the AND gate 250 and the A
An inhibit input is provided to the ND gate 270. The other input of the AND gate 220 is given the reset output (H signal) of the flip-flop 105 at the same time as the roulette game device, which stops a moment later than the slot game device, stops its operation. derives the H signal. This H signal derived from the AND gate 220 is differentiated by the differentiating circuit 221, and then passes through the OR gate 222 to set the flip-flop 223. flip flop 22
The set output (H signal) of No. 3 is negative, and the OR gate 225
is applied to the single power of AND gate 226 via . O
The H signal derived from the R gate 225 is also inverted and applied to the reset terminal R of the shift register 228 in order to release the shift register 228 from the reset state. The other one of the AND gates 226 is constantly given a pulse signal from the pulse oscillator 227, and the remaining one of the AND gates 226 is initially connected to the shift register 222.
Since the inhibit input is given from output terminal 3 of 8, A
ND gate 226 will send a clock signal to clock signal input terminal CK of shift register 228.

The shift register 223 first derives an H signal from terminal 1 according to the rising edge of the first pulse of this clock signal, and
Next, due to the rise of the second pulse, a high level is also output from terminal 2.
It operates to derive a signal and further derive an H signal from terminal 3 at the rise of the third pulse. The H signal outputs derived from terminals 1, 2, and 3 of the shift register 228 sequentially start the corresponding variable prize winning devices 13a, 13b, and 13c via the driver circuit 229. AND gate 226 to shift register 22
The tarok signal sent to the clock signal input terminal CK of No. 8 is activated when the H signal comes to be derived from the terminal 3 of the shift register 228, that is, when the variable winning device 13c that operates to open last opens. By applying the H signal as an inhibit input to the AND gate 226, its transmission is stopped. In addition, the shift register 228
The H signal derived from terminal 3 of the AND gate 230
The set output (H signal) of the flip 70 knob 223 is given to the other input of the AND gate 230, so the AND gate 230 is given the H signal. Derive the signal. Based on this H signal, the timer circuit 231 derives the H signal after a certain period of time (30 seconds in the pachinko machine of this embodiment) and resets the flip-flop 223, which has been in the set state so far. As the flip-flop 223 is reset, the H signal derived from the OR gate 225 is cut off, and the shift register 228 returns to its initial state, that is, the reset state. In response to this, all the variable prize winning devices 13a, 13b, 1 which had successively opened and then continued to open for 30 seconds regulated by the timer circuit 231.
3c will perform a closing operation at the same time.

Next, the most important feature of the pachinko machine of the present invention is the continuous operation, the specific fluctuation winning device 13 within the above 30 seconds.
A detailed explanation will be given of how the operation in which all the variable winning devices 13a, 13b, 13c controlled by the main control unit 200 are opened again for 30 seconds based on the occurrence of a winning ball in the ball b is performed. do.

Now, based on the occurrence of a specific aspect, the variable prize winning device 13a,
Assume that 13b and 13c are in the opening operation as described above. In this state, the set output (H signal) of the flip-flop 223 is given to the AND gate 226 via the OR gate 225 as described above.
On the other hand, the AND gate 242 via the delay circuit 241
It is also inverted and applied to the reset input terminal of the flip-flop 243. As a result, during the 30 seconds after the flip-flop 223 is set based on the occurrence of the specific condition until it is reset by the timer circuit 231, a winning ball is won to the specific variable winning device 13b which is in the opening operation, If a continuation command signal is issued from the second specific winning detector 244 provided in connection with the variable winning device 13b, the continuation command signal is sent to the AND gate 2.
42 is activated to set the flip-flop 243. The set output (H signal) of the flip-flop 243 is given to the set input terminal of the flip-flop 223 via the OR gate 222, so that the flip-flop 223 is regulated by the timer circuit 231. As time elapses in seconds, the flip-flop 223 is once reset and then immediately set again, resulting in the same state as when the flip-flop 223 was first set based on the occurrence of a specific condition. As a result, the variable prize winning devices 13a, 1
3b and 13c momentarily close in response to the reset of the flip-flop 223, and then sequentially open again through the process already described and are maintained for 30 seconds. The flip-flop 243 is the flip-flop 22
3 is reset by the timer circuit 231, it is reset with a slight delay by the delay time of the delay circuit 241, and the specific fluctuation winning device fi within the newly started 30 seconds is reset.
Prepare for the occurrence of winning balls to 13b. In this way, when the specific Rs occurs in the game device, the timer circuit 231
1 to the specific variable prize winning device 13b within a certain period of time regulated by (in this embodiment, every 30 seconds as described above).
If there is a winning ball, variable winning system ff13a, 13b
, 13c are repeatedly performed.

Next, a case will be described in which the number display of the slot game device stops at "77" but the lighting stop position of the lamp of the roulette game device stops at a place other than the C chuck car. In this case, unlike the case where the specific mode occurs, the roulette game device does not send out the H signal, so the H signal is not derived from the AND gate 202, but one input of each of the AND gates 250 and 270 The low level signal of the AND gate 202 is inverted and an H signal is applied to the gate. Also, AND gate 2
The H signal of 01 is applied to the other input of the AND gate 250, activating the AND gate 250, and
The inverted signal is applied to gate 270 as an inhibit input.

The H signal derived from AND gate 250 is given to one input of AND gate 251, and
As mentioned above, the other input of 51 is the reset output (H signal) of the flip-flop 105 of the roulette game device.
is given, the AND gate 251 derives an H signal at the same time as the game is stopped, and sets the flip-flop 254 via the fine powder circuit 253. Variable winning equipment f13a,
The process in which the flip-flops 13b and 13c sequentially open based on the set operation of the flip-flop 254 is exactly the same as the process in which these variable prize winning devices open based on the occurrence of the specific mode described above, and will not be particularly explained again. The H signal sent from terminal 3 of register 228 in turn activates AND gate 252. AND gate 2
The H signal derived from 52 is given to a timer circuit 255, and the timer circuit 255 receives the H signal for a period of 10 seconds in this embodiment, which is shorter than the time regulated by the timer circuit 231 (30 seconds). When the second elapses, an H signal is sent to reset the flip-flop 254. As this flip-flop 254 is reset, all the variable winning devices 13a, 1
3b and 13c are closed.

Next, a case will be described in which the number display of the slot game device stops at a combination other than "77" and the lighting stop position of the lamp of the roulette game device stops at a place other than the C chuck car. In this case, Niha, AND gate 20
Since the H signal is not derived from either of the AND gate 2.1 and the AND gate 2.2, and therefore an inverted H signal is given to the two inputs of the AND gate 270, the AND gate 270 outputs an H signal when both game devices are stopped. At the same time, an H signal is derived.

This H signal derived from the AND gate 270 is first differentiated by a differentiation circuit 271 to set a flip-flop 272 . Based on the setting of the flip-flop 272, when a specific mode occurs or when the number display of the slot game device stops at "77", the variable prize winning devices 13a, 13b, 13c
open sequentially. At this time, the H signal derived from terminal 3 of the shift register 228 activates the AND gate 273 to which the set output (H signal) of the flip-flop 272 is applied to the -6 input, and the H signal derived from the AND gate 273 is activated. The signal is provided to timer circuit 274.

The timer circuit 274 derives an H signal after receiving the H signal derived from the AND gate 273 for a shorter time than the time regulated by the timer circuit 255, in this embodiment, 5 seconds after receiving the H signal derived from the AND gate 273, thereby triggering the flip-flop. P27
Reset 2. As the flip-flop 272 is reset, all variable winning devices 13a, 13
The simultaneous closing operations of b and 13c are exactly the same as when a specific mode occurs and when the slot game machine stops at the combination of numbers "77".

Furthermore, when the variable winning device 13a, 13b, 13c is in the opening operation based on the result of any of the games of the gaming device, even if the ball hits the specific roulette chucker B or D, the game will be canceled. The device is prevented from restarting operation. Specifically, variable winning bag ff13a.

When 13b and 13C are in the opening operation, the OR gate 22
5 is inverted and applied to one input of an AND gate 104 in the game control section 100, and the H signal derived from the AND gate 104 is prohibited.

Although the basic circuit configuration and operating principle of the control device 16 have been explained so far, the game control section 100 of the control device 16 in particular includes a probability control circuit and a specific mode occurrence monitor circuit as characteristic circuits that have not been explained yet. are included and will be explained below.

The probability control circuit is a circuit whose purpose is to electrically change the probability that a specific form as a game result will occur. 77" combination, the probability of stopping can be changed to three levels. Calculate the probability that the specific aspect of the game result described above will occur based on winning on specific roulette chuck cars B or D under normal conditions. The probability of stopping at the number "7" is 115, and the probability of stopping at the number "7" for one number display element in a slot game machine is 1/1o, so the total is 115.
The probability is low: xl/10xl/10=11500. However, for example, the output terminal QD of the decimal counter 132
If the H signal is always given to the numeric display element 12,
The display of a is sequentially moved only within the range of odd numbers, and the probability of stopping at the number "7" is 115.

Therefore, in this case, the probability that the specific mode will occur is 115x
l/10x115=1/250, and the probability is twice that of the normal case. If an H signal is always given to the output terminal QD of the decimal counter 122 in addition to the decimal counter 132, the number display element 12b will also sequentially display only within the range of odd numbers. The probability of occurrence is 115x115x115=1/1
25, which means that the specific mode can occur with a probability four times higher than in the normal case.0 The selection of the probability in the game device control section 100 of this embodiment is based on the decimal counter 13.
2 and the jumper wire 161 or 16 to the terminal board 160 to which each output terminal QD of the decimal counter 122 is connected.
This is done by selectively inserting 2. If the jumper wire 161 is used, the probability that the specific mode will occur will be 1/250 as described above, and if the jumper wire 162 is used, the probability will be 1/125.

The specific mode occurrence monitor circuit includes a monitor switch 170
By operating the circuit, a specific mode, which is one of the aforementioned game results, is generated in a pseudo manner, and is extremely convenient for the manager when inspecting and adjusting the pachinko machine. When the gaming device has stopped its operation,
When the manager operates the monitor switch 170, an H signal is sent from the monitor switch 170, and the AND gate 171, AND gate 172 and AN
Commonly applied to one input of each D gate 173. At this time, the other input of the AND gate 171 is the reset output (H
signal) is applied, the AND gate 171 derives the H signal and applies it to the preset terminal P of the decimal counter 132. Data input terminal PA of decimal counter 132.

Since the data corresponding to the number "7" is input in advance to Pa, PC, and PD, when the H signal from the AND gate 171 is given to the preset terminal P, the output terminal rQAQBQCQD J has the number ``7''
The BCD output "0111" corresponding to " is immediately derived. The number display element 12a displays the number "7" in accordance with this. The decimal counter 122 receives the H signal derived from the AND gate 172 at its preset terminal P, sends the BCD output "0111" corresponding to the number "7" to its output terminal rQA QB QCQD J, and accordingly The principle by which the number display element 12b displays the number "7" is the same as in the case described above, and does not require any particular explanation.

AND gate 173 receives the H signal sent from monitor switch 170 and the reset output (H signal) of flip-flop 105, and derives the H signal as its output. A
The H signal derived from the ND gate 173 is sent to the reset terminal R of the ring counter 110 via the OR gate 111.
is given to reset the ring counter 110.

In response to this, if the ring counter 110 had output an H signal from a terminal other than terminal 0 before this reset operation, it immediately responds to the roulette chucker C based on the H signal output from terminal 0. Lamp C lights up.

In this way, by operating the monitor switch 170, the lighting position of the lamp of the roulette game device is set to C.
Since this is the position of the chutker and the combination of numbers displayed on the slot game machine is "77", it is possible to simulate the specific aspect of the game result described above.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained in detail above, the pachinko machine of the present invention has a novel game mode not found in conventional pachinko machines, that is, a state in which it is easy for a batted ball to win a prize based on a certain game result by the game device. It is possible to provide a game mode that continues for a long time, and it is possible to give pachinko games more anticipation and interest.
