Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention is a ball game machine, more specifically, a ball game in which a game is played by causing a ball to fall on a vertical board surface by the player's operation, and allowing the ball to enter a winning slot. It's about machines.

Conventionally, various game machines using balls have been provided, including pachinko machines.

The present invention was devised for the purpose of providing a new ball game machine that is completely different from such conventional game machines.

That is, in the present invention, a handle and a board are provided on the front side of the top plate, an eccentric cam is fixed to the rotating shaft protruding from the front side of the handle, and a slide is mounted on the board that moves up and down by the rotation of the eccentric cam. Along with providing a rod,
A number of rails are provided on this slide rod, one end of which is pivoted as a dynamic fulcrum, and the other end pivoted to a fulcrum provided on the board surface, and a ball outlet for a game ball is bored at the top of the topmost rail. , is characterized by having a prize opening for the ball in the board.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to an illustrated example.

FIG. 1 is a front view of a top plate 10 of a ball game machine formed into a substantially box shape, and FIG. 2 is a back view of the top plate 10.

A board surface 11 is formed from approximately the center of the front surface of the top plate 10 to the upper part thereof, and a handle 12 and a prize slot 13 for dispensing prizes when a prize is won are provided at the bottom of the board surface 11. Further, on the top plate 10 corresponding to the side of the board 11, there are arranged an input slot 14 for inserting coins, a cancel opening 15 for discharging defective coins, and a cancel button 16.
Additionally, provided next to the handle 12 is a start button 17 for starting the game.

Further, the board surface 11 has a long slide groove 18 recessed in the vertical direction, and a slide rod 19 that is movable in the vertical direction is arranged in the slide groove 18. Furthermore, this slide rod 19 is provided with a large number of dynamic fulcrums 20 in the vertical direction. Also, one of the rails 21 on which the ball rolls is pivotally supported on this dynamic fulcrum 20, and the other rail 21 is supported on a fulcrum 22 provided on either the left or right board surface 11 of the slide rod 19. It is pivoted. In addition, fulcrum 22
is always at a constant position on the board surface 11 as a fixed center, but the dynamic fulcrum 20 is a permanent center that moves in the vertical direction together with the slide rod 19. Therefore, as the slide rod 19 moves up and down, the rail 21 swings about the fulcrum 22, and at this time, the moving fulcrum 20 rotates while moving up and down, so that the two left and right rails 21 move as shown in the example. The shape changes from a concave shape to a convex shape (not shown). Also, drilled in the upper left of the slide groove 18 of the board surface 11 is a ball outlet 23 for dropping the ball onto the top rail 21 at the start of the game. Further, the holes drilled in the middle of the plurality of rails 21 are a rolling inlet 24 and a rolling outlet 25.
The ball that entered the board passes through the back side of the board 11 and rolls again to the exit 2
5 and is formed so as to come out onto the rail 21. Further, at the bottom of the board 11, there is one prize opening 26 and two replay openings 27.If the ball finally enters the winning opening 26, a prize will be given out, but if the ball lands in the replay opening 27, then a prize will be given out. The game is designed so that it can be played again. Although not shown, a large number of nails are driven into the board surface 11 to prevent easy entry into the winning opening 26. Although not shown, a ball transfer path is provided on the lower left side of the board surface 11 for sending out balls that did not enter the prize opening 26 or the replay opening 27 to a ball lifting device 28 provided on the back side of the top plate 10. . In addition, the ball that entered the prize opening 26 or the replay opening 27,
After emitting an electric signal to that effect, the ball is sent to the ball lifting device 28 on the back side of the top plate 10.

Further, a rotating shaft 29 of the handle 12 protrudes from the back surface of the top plate 10, and an eccentric cam 30 is fixed to this rotating shaft 29. Furthermore, this eccentric cam 30 has a back slide rod 31 that is interlocked with the slide rod 19.
are in contact with each other, and the slide rod 19 on the front side of the board surface 11 is configured to move up and down together with the back slide rod 31 by eccentric rotation of the eccentric cam 30, that is, by rotation of the handle 12. A ball lifting device 28 is also provided on the right side of the back surface. This ball lifting device 28 is for sending the ball after the game to the ball outlet 23 on the front side of the board 11, and after storing the ball in the lifting box 32, this lifting box 32 is rolled up via the winding system 33. It is moved up and down by the rotation of the motor 34. Specifically, a rising box 32, a vertical movement guide 35 for preventing the ball from falling off when the rising box 32 moves up and down,
An upper switch 36 and a lower switch 37 provided at the upper and lower parts of the vertical movement guide 35, an inclined guide 38 provided inclined from the upper part of the vertical movement guide 35 toward the ball outlet 23, and a ball It consists of a start solenoid 39 provided at the lower part of the inclined guide 38 to send out the ball to the ball outlet 23, the above-mentioned winding thread 33, and the winding motor 34. The ball lifting device 28 is operated by using two balls, by activating the start solenoid 39 in response to a game start signal generated by pressing the start button 17, and sending the ball in the inclined guide 38 to the ball outlet 23. , a rising box 32 containing balls located at the bottom of the vertical movement guide 35
is raised by the operation of the hoisting motor 34, and the balls in this rising box 32 are positioned on the inclined guide 38. When the rising box 32 rises to a position where the stored balls are sent out to the inclined guide 38, the upper switch 36 is activated;
The hoisting motor 34 rotates in the opposite direction by the operation of , and the lower switch 37 is lowered until the lower switch 37 is actuated.

Next, the operation of the present invention will be explained.

First, a predetermined coin is inserted into the input slot 14. If the inserted coin is determined to be a legitimate coin by a coin sorting machine (not shown), the game can be started by pressing the start button 17.
Further, if the coin is determined to be a counterfeit coin, the inserted counterfeit coin is sent out to the cancellation port 15.

Next, by turning on the start button 17, the start solenoid 39 is actuated, and the ball in the inclined guide 38 is sent out from the ball outlet 23 onto the top rail 21.

At this time, on the back side of the top plate 10, regardless of the game, the ball in the moving body at the lowest end of the vertical movement guide 35 is moved into the inclined guide 38 by the operation of the winding motor 34 in order to use it for the next game. It is sent to

Further, the ball on the top rail 21 is then moved up and down by the player's operation of the handle 12, and sequentially falls onto the lower rail 21, and finally enters the winning slot 26. A game will be played.

In such games, the ball is placed in the winning slot 2.
6, when a prize is won, a prize is sent out to the prize opening 13 by a prize sending device (not shown).

Since the game machine according to the present invention progresses through the game based on the reflexes of the player who rotates the handle, it not only provides a new game machine that has never existed before, but also helps to develop the reflexes of the player. It is.
