Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial application field) This invention has a prize opening function that catches the ball that falls down on the surface of the game board and wins a prize, and two rotations that rotate when the ball that falls down hits the game board. This invention relates to a winning device with a windmill for a pachinko machine that is integrally provided with a rotating body function.

(Prior art) The winning equipment installed in conventional pachinko machines consists of a ball receiving part that catches balls flowing down the surface of the game board, and a ball passing part that introduces the balls caught by this ball receiving part to the back side of the game board. It is configured by forming an opening and a flow path.

Furthermore, a so-called windmill is constructed by having a single rotating body rotated by the downward force of a ball rotatably attached directly to the surface of the game board or to the surface of a board attached to the surface of the game board.

The prize winning tool and the windmill, which are constructed separately, are separately attached to predetermined positions on the surface of the game board.

(Problems that the invention attempts to solve) However, in recent pachinko machines,
Since large game devices such as variable prize winning devices and variable display devices are installed on the surface of the game board, the space for placing prize winning devices, windmills, etc. tends to decrease. It is not easy to provide effectively and effectively.

In addition, some winning devices need to function as a starting port for operating large game devices such as variable winning devices and variable display devices, so the winning devices may be If the number of machines arranged is reduced, there will be fewer prize-winning tools for winning prize balls, which will deviate from the original game content of the pachinko machine game. Therefore, it is not possible to reduce the number of prize-winning tools provided.

Furthermore, if only a large number of winning tools are provided in the winning area and no windmills are provided, the balance of the pachinko machine's game board surface will be poor, which will not only significantly damage the appearance of the pachinko machine, but also increase the falling speed of the ball on the game board surface. The speed of the game becomes faster, and when playing on such a pachinko machine, the player cannot fully enjoy the game.

In addition, because a large number of balls are fired into the gaming section of the game board in a short period of time, it is virtually impossible for players to accurately track all the balls with their eyes. When a ball falls, the player may mistakenly think that the hit ball has won a prize, and troubles may arise between the player and the game parlor as to whether or not the ball has won a prize.

On the other hand, conventionally, the prize winning tool and the windmill were attached separately, so the work of installing the winning tool and the windmill when manufacturing the game board was troublesome.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention has been proposed in view of the above, and includes an armor portion 4 having a ball receiving portion 14 whose top surface is open at the upper part of the front side of the board 3 attached to the surface of the game board 2. protruding,
Below the armor portion 4, the first rotating body 5 and the second rotating body 6 having a ball receiving protrusion 22 on the outer periphery are overlapped in the front-rear direction, so that the first rotating body 5 and the second rotating body 6 are stacked. rotatably provided by a shaft 7 in a state where they can be rotated separately;
The lower end portion of the armor portion 4 and the ball receiving protrusion 22 provided on the peripheral edge of the second rotating body 6 are arranged in close proximity to each other, thereby achieving a winning opening function and the first rotating body 5 and the second rotating body 6.
The functions of the rotor and the rotary body provided on the same axis are integrated vertically on a single board.

(Function) The ball receiving part provided on the armor part protruding from the board functions as a winning hole that introduces the balls flowing down the surface of the game board into the back side of the board as winning balls.

In addition, when the ball that has flown down the surface of the game board hits the rotating body, the first and second rotating bodies rotate together or separately, thereby functioning as a rotating body that enhances the decorative effect, and also serves as a rotating body that enhances the decorative effect. When there is a ball that has fallen nearby, the rotating body is rotated by the falling ball, so that the player can immediately visually confirm that the ball has not landed in the ball receiver.

Therefore, the winning hole function and the rotating body function are integrated on a single board, and the function of confirming whether or not a ball enters the winning hole is achieved.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

As shown in the drawing, the prize-winning tool 1 has an armor part 4 protruding from the upper surface of a board 3 attached to the surface of a game board 2, and below the armor part 4 are a first rotating body 5 and a second rotating body. The shaft 7 can be overlapped with the shaft 6 and rotated separately.
It is rotatably attached to the shaft.

The substrate 3 is a plate-shaped body made of translucent plastic, and has a shaft hole 8 approximately in the center, illumination holes 9, 9 on the left and right sides of the shaft hole 8, and a second rotating body 6. A groove 10 centered around the shaft hole 8 is formed on the surface of the portion where the outer peripheral edge faces, and a paint of a color different from the color of the substrate 3 is applied inside the groove 10, and mounting holes are formed in the left and right protruding portions. 11, 11 are opened, and a cylindrical bearing portion 12 communicating with the shaft hole 8 and a pair of left and right supports 13, 13 are provided protruding from the back side.

An armor portion 4 provided on the upper part of the substrate 3 having such a configuration

The tip of 7 faces into the through hole of the decorative plate 15. In addition, on the back side of the board 3, a ball guide path 18 communicating with the ball receiving part 14 is formed integrally with the board 3, and the armor part 4 is provided with a winning opening function.

The first rotating body 5 rotatably attached to the lower part of the armor part 4 is a hollow truncated conical body made of colored plastic and has a cylindrical shaft hole 19 in the center and a decorative pattern on the front surface. . On the other hand, the second rotating body 6 is a short hollow cylindrical body made of translucent colored plastic, which has a cylindrical shaft hole 20 in the center and an armored part 21 at the rear end, and has approximately Cylindrical ball-receiving protrusions 22 are provided protruding forward at positions 120 degrees out of phase. The diameter of the second rotating body 6 is approximately the same as or slightly smaller than the width of the armor portion 4, and the ball receiving projection 22
... are arranged on an imaginary circle slightly larger than the first rotating body 5 so that the first rotating body 5 can be accommodated therein.

Further, as shown in FIG.
2 are disposed in close proximity to each other, and are configured to be vertically integrated on a single substrate 3. By doing so, while the area of the substrate 3 is reduced, the armor part 4 and the first and second
The rotating bodies 5 and 6 can be provided integrally. In addition, if the armor part 4 is provided with a pair of ball receiving parts in parallel, it is possible to add the functions of two winning openings located at the upper left and right sides of the first and second rotating bodies 5 and 6.

The first rotating body 5 and the second rotating body 6 described above are connected to the substrate 3.
To attach the second rotating body 6 to the back side of the first rotating body 5,
The ball receiving protrusion 22... is inserted between the shaft holes 19 of the first rotating body 5 and the shaft hole 20 of the second rotating body 6, and in this state, the shaft 7 is inserted from the front of the first rotating body 5. , the tip portion of the shaft 7 protruding from the second rotating body 6 penetrates the bearing portion 12 of the substrate 3, and the shaft 7 protrudes from the second rotating body 6.
A stopper 7' such as an E-ring is fitted onto the tip of the shaft 7 protruding from the shaft 2 to secure it. In addition, in this embodiment, so that the first rotating body 5 and the second rotating body 6 can easily rotate separately, there is a gap between the first rotating body 5 and the second rotating body 6, and between the second rotating body 6 and the substrate. Between 3 and 23,
23 is interposed. By doing so,
A highly decorative rotating body function can be provided on the substrate 3.

Then, the tips of the light emitting sources 24, 24 such as lamps are exposed to the illumination hole 9 of the board 3, and the second base plate 25 supporting the base end of each light emitting source 24 is fixed to the support 13 on the back side of the board 3. do. In addition, when this second base plate 25 and the above-mentioned first base plate 16 are fixed to the column 13, in this embodiment, the first base plate 16 is brought into contact with the tip of the column 13, and the first base plate 16 and the first base plate 16 are fixed to each other. A plastic cylindrical spacer 26 is interposed between the second base plate 25, a plastic insulating member 27 is placed on the second base plate 25, and in this state, screws 28 are inserted between the insulating member 27, the second base plate 25, and the plastic insulating member 27. The first and second base plates 25 are firmly fixed by passing through the spacer 26 and the first base plate 16 and screwing the tip of the screw 28 into the support column 13. If the first and second base plates 16 and 25 are fixed in this manner, the assembly work is easy. Furthermore, when the back side of the second base plate 25 is fixed with the insulating member 27 covered as described above, the bulb comes into contact with the wiring part of the light emitting source 24 protruding from the back side of the second base plate 25 and is shot. This can be prevented.

When the winning tool 1 having the above-described configuration is attached to the surface of the game board 2, when a ball that has flowed down the surface of the game board 2 lands on the ball receiver 14, the ball is moved from the ball receiver 14 to the ball guide path. The ball can be introduced to the back side of the game board 2 through the ball 18 and used as a winning ball.

Also, the ball that has flown down the surface of the game board 2 is the second
When the ball hits the ball receiving protrusion 22 of the rotating body 6, the second rotating body 6 rotates vigorously due to the downward force of the ball. In this case, the first rotating body 5 also rotates as the second rotating body 6 rotates, but the edges of the first rotating body 5 and the second rotating body 6 are cut so that they can rotate separately. Therefore, the rotational speed of the first rotating body 5 is the same as that of the second rotating body 6.
is lower than the rotation speed of Therefore, the ball receiving protrusion 22 of the second rotating body 6 rotates quickly, and the first rotating body 5 rotates slowly, making it possible to achieve a decorative effect different from that of the conventional art. Note that the rotational speeds of the first rotating body 5 and the second rotating body 6 vary depending on how the ball collides with the first rotating body 5 and the second rotating body 6. Therefore, depending on the manner in which the ball hits the ball, it can exhibit a wide variety of decorative effects and function as an extremely useful rotating body.

In addition, the present invention has a light emitting source 2 on the back side of the rotating bodies 5 and 6.
4, 24 are arranged, this light emitting source 24,
When 24 is turned on or blinked by electricity supplied from the control device, the first and second rotating bodies 5 and 6 are illuminated and brightened, making it possible to further enhance the decorative effect.

Furthermore, some of the balls that have reached the vicinity of the ball receiving part of the armor part 4 but have not entered the ball receiving part 24 reach the first and second rotating bodies 5 and 6 that control the rotating body function. death,
Since these are rotated appropriately, it is not only possible to immediately see that the hit ball did not win, but also to give consolation to players who are feeling frustrated by the rotation of the rotating body, which has a highly decorative effect. . Therefore, the player can enjoy pachinko games for a long time with a relatively stable feeling. In the embodiment shown in the drawings, the light emitting sources 17, 17 are provided on both left and right sides of the armor portion 4, but if these are not provided on the armor portion 4, the shape of the armor portion 4 is changed to a ball receiving portion. If the shape is such that it can cover the front part of the ball receiving part 14, the balls that have not reached the ball receiving part 14 can easily reach the first and first rotating bodies 5 and 6.

(Effect of the invention) As explained above, according to the invention, the lower end portion of the armor part and the ball receiving protrusion provided on the peripheral edge of the second rotating body are arranged in close proximity, and the winning opening function and the rotation Since all physical functions are consolidated on a single board, large game devices such as variable prize winning devices and variable display devices are installed on the game board surface, which limits the space available for placing prize winning equipment, windmills, etc. In addition to being able to effectively and effectively provide a prize winning device and a windmill within the prize winning area, when a ball falls near the ball receiver, the rotating body is rotated by the falling ball.
It is immediately possible to visually confirm that the hit ball has not entered the ball receiving section of the armor section, and troubles related to whether or not the ball has entered the ball can be reduced.

Moreover, the rotating body function provided integrally with the winning opening function is composed of a first rotating body and a second rotating body that are provided on the same axis so as to be able to rotate separately.
When the rotating body rotates, an extremely good decorative effect can be achieved.

In addition, since the prize opening function and the rotary body function are integrally provided in close proximity, there is no need to separately attach the prize winning device and the windmill as in the past, and it is possible to improve the efficiency of the game board manufacturing work. be.
