Description

[Detailed description of the invention] Purpose of the invention (industrial application field) This invention relates to a winning device for a pachinko machine.

(Prior Art) As a conventional winning device of this type, a recess is formed in a board attached to a game board, a special winning hole and a regular winning hole for pachinko balls are provided in the recess, and a hole is placed above the winning hole. Ball receiving members for introducing external pachinko balls into the recess are arranged so as to be movable toward and away from each other, and as each ball receiving member moves toward each other, a position directly above the special winning hole is closed. In addition, there is a known system in which the position directly above the special winning hole is opened as the holes are moved apart.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, in general, the time for the ball receiving member to open the position directly above the special winning hole is very short, and moreover, the pachinko balls are always floating on the ball receiving member. Even if the opening operation is performed several times in a row, the probability of a pachinko ball hitting the special prize hole is very low, which poses a problem in that the entertainment provided to the player is insufficient. .

Structure of the invention (means for solving the problem) This invention was made with attention to the above problem, and it engages with the pachinko ball on each ball receiving member when moving close, and the pachinko ball The present invention is characterized in that a regulating member is provided in the concave portion of the board so that the special winning hole is placed directly above the special winning hole.

(Function) According to this, the engagement with the regulating member deenergizes the pachinko balls at a position directly above the special winning hole and restricts their movement, so that when the ball receiving member moves away, the pachinko balls are It becomes easier to enter the winning hole.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example that embodies this invention will be described based on the drawings.

The winning device 1 includes a board 2 attached to the center of a game board (not shown) of a pachinko machine, and a recess 3 is formed in the center of the board 2. A central special winning hole 5 and a pair of left and right normal winning holes 6 are provided in the lower part of the recess 3. Further, a pair of guide plates 4 for guiding the pachinko balls B to fall are formed on both left and right sides of the board 2 so as to extend vertically.

Above each of the winning holes 5 and 6, on the front surface of the recess 3, a pair of left and right ball receiving members 7 are arranged so as to be movable left and right with respect to the board 2 by guide pieces 8 having a gentle downward slope. When a pachinko ball B wins in a specific winning hole on the game board, an appropriate drive means such as a solenoid (not shown) is activated, and each ball receiving member 7 moves to a position directly above the special winning hole 5. They are moved toward and away from each other a predetermined number of times (once or twice in this embodiment) with respect to the center, and as shown by solid lines in FIG. As the position is closed, each ball receiving member 7 is closed, as shown by the chain line in the same figure.
When the special winning hole 5 is moved away, the position directly above the special winning hole 5 is opened. In addition, when each ball receiving member 7 is moved apart, a portion of the ball receiving member 7 that protrudes outward from the lower end of each guide plate 4 is used to catch pachinko balls B that have fallen along the guide plate 4 or fly from the side of this winning device 1. After receiving the formed pachinko ball B and introducing it into the recess 3 through the oblique support surface 9, it falls from the rear edge or inner edge of the support surface 9 toward each of the winning holes 5 and 6. It is designed to guide you. And this pachinko ball B
When a pachinko ball B enters the special winning hole 5, both ball receiving members 7 are moved toward and away from each other a predetermined number of times (18 times in this embodiment), and during this predetermined number of operations, another pachinko ball B enters the special winning hole again. 5, the movement of both ball receiving members 7 will be performed the predetermined number of times from the beginning.

A through hole 11 is formed in the lower part of the decorative body 10 fixedly arranged in the recess 3, and a through hole 11 is formed inside the through hole 11 so as to face the inner end upper part of each ball receiving member 7 from the rear when the ball receiving member 7 moves toward the recess 3. A regulating member 12 is housed in the housing so as to be movable in the front-back direction. As shown in FIG. 2, this regulating member 12 is attached via a mounting plate 13 to the front end of an armature 15 of a solenoid 14 as a driving means installed on the back side of the board 2. Then, by intermittently deenergizing the solenoid 14 a predetermined number of times in synchronization with the operation of the ball receiving member 7, the regulating member 12 is positioned directly above the special winning hole 5 as shown by the solid line in FIG. It is reciprocated between the rear position shown and the front position shown by the chain line in the figure. In the forward position, the regulating member 12 engages from the rear with the pachinko ball B on each ball receiving member 7 during the approach movement, and deenergizes the pachinko ball B at the center of both ball receiving members 7. This has led to restrictions on movement. In addition, armature 1
5 is provided with a regulating member 12 when the solenoid 14 is demagnetized.
A spring 16 is attached to return the holder to the rear position.

Therefore, in the winning device 1 of this embodiment,
Since the pachinko balls B on both ball receiving members 7 are momentarily held still at the position directly above the special winning hole 5 by the regulating member 12 moved to the front position, each ball receiving member 7 is separated from each other in this state. When the pachinko ball B is moved, it becomes easier to enter the special winning hole 5, and the winning probability can be improved. Furthermore, by synchronously operating the ball receiving member 7 and the regulating member 12, winning balls can be selected depending on the timing of the operation of the two members, giving the pachinko machine thrilling entertainment. I can do it.

As shown in FIG. 1, an indicator 17 made of a light emitting diode is provided on the upper front surface of the board 2, and when the opening/closing operation of the ball receiving member 7 is completed a predetermined number of times, the winning device during the operation is displayed. The total number of prizes won within 1 is displayed. Further, between the facing portion of each ball receiving member 7 and the special winning hole 5, a swinging body 18 is provided which can swing horizontally at all times across the winning path extending between the two. I'm starting to change course.

This invention is not limited to the configuration of the embodiment described above; for example, by rotating the regulating member 12,
It is also possible to change the shapes and configurations of each part arbitrarily without departing from the spirit of the invention, such as by making it movable vertically or horizontally.

Effects of the invention As detailed above, according to this invention, the pachinko balls are deenergized at the position directly above the special winning hole by engagement with the regulating member, and their movement is restricted, so that the separation of the ball receiving member is When moving, the pachinko balls can easily enter the special prize hole, and the excellent effect of further improving the entertainment value of the pachinko machine is achieved.
