Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Field of industrial application) The present invention transmits the operating force of the operating means to the adjustment mechanism of the firing device via the force transmission mechanism, and the resilient force of the firing device to the firing punch is transmitted to the adjustment mechanism of the firing device. The present invention relates to a batted ball launch operating device for a pachinko machine that can be adjusted to adjust the flight distance of a batted ball, and in particular to its operating means.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, a ball firing operating device for a pachinko machine has three parts: a rear handshake member, a rotating operation member, and a front handshake member.
The members constitute an operating means, and the front handshake member is formed of a curved surface that is axially symmetrical about the rotation operating axis.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, the operating means is located at the lower right side of the front of the Pachinko machine, and the player usually operates it by grasping it from above. Therefore, when the front surface of the front handshake member of the operating means is configured as an axially symmetrical curved surface, it does not fit the palm of the player's hand, and the player is likely to get tired when operating the operating means for a long time. There was a problem in that it was not possible to properly adjust the flight distance. Further, the front handshake member functions only for the original function of the operating means, and does not have any secondary functions such as illumination.

The present invention aims to solve such problems.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The ball firing operating device for a pachinko machine of the present invention has a support column protruding from the front surface of a base plate having a force transmission mechanism therein, for mounting the operating means, and The means includes an operation rotation shaft that rotatably passes through the support column and whose other end is connected to the force transmission mechanism, and a bowl-shaped rear handgrip member whose base is fitted and fixed to the support column. , a bowl-shaped front handshake member located in front of the rear handshake member and removably connected to the rear handshake member by a connecting arm; and a bowl-shaped front handshake member located between the front handshake member and the rear handshake member and fitted on the operating rotation shaft. A rotation operation member equipped with a rotation operation member, the rotation operation member having a finger hook portion on the outer peripheral surface and a rotation restriction slit that passes through the connecting member and restricts the rotation range of the rotation operation member. The base of the rear handshake member is formed as a composite structure having a mounting hole for the support column and an unformed cavity around the mounting hole, and the front surface of the front handshake member has a base for attaching the player to the support column. A diagonally cut flat part is provided to form a handshake play area, a translucent display member is provided on the flat part, a lamp is disposed inside the front handshake member facing the display member, and a light-transmitting display member is provided inside the front handshake member, Passing the electrical connection line from the lamp through the insertion slit provided in the rotation operating member and the unformed cavity at the base of the rear handshake member,
The feature is that it can be pulled out to the back side of the board.

(Function) The front face of the front handshake member is cut diagonally and is formed as a flat part that forms a handshake space for the player, so it fits easily in the palm of the player's hand and can be used for long periods of time by the player. You won't get tired. Further, a translucent display member is provided on this flat portion, and is illuminated by a lamp provided inside the front handshake member. This lamp may be left on all the time as a decoration, or it may be turned off when the player touches the operating means, or it may be turned on when the pachinko machine is stopped. The electrical connection line from this lamp passes through the insertion slit provided in the rotation operating member and the unformed cavity at the base of the rear handshake member.
Since it is pulled out to the back side of the board and does not come out of the operating means, it does not impede operability.
