In the gazette, a right generating device for creating a right state is composed of a prize device capable of enlarging and reducing a prize area, and this prize device has a general prize hole and a special prize hole for generating a right. Proposed.

[0003]

However, in the conventional pachinko machine, there is a leeway in time from when the player wins the prize to the general prize hole or the special prize hole. Depending on the timing, the preceding ball may win the special winning opening and the subsequent ball may also win the special winning opening depending on the timing. Therefore, even if the right is generated by the preceding ball, the right may be immediately extinguished by the succeeding ball. Therefore, the player fires at the prize generating device, which is a right-generating device, and when the hit ball hits the prize winning device, the pause button is operated to stop the firing of the hit ball until the whereabouts of the ball are confirmed. Or adjust the flight distance by operating the handle so that the hit ball does not enter the prize winning equipment. For this reason, wasted balls are likely to occur, and the motivation for playing the game does not increase. Also, for pachinko parlors, the operation of pachinko machines will be suspended, so the operating rate will decrease.

It is discharged to the surface of the game board 9 again from the ball discharge port 47 of the center accessory 14 through 47.

The ball released to the surface of the game board 9 enters the center lower accessory 16 which has been converted to the second state, passes through the center lower accessory 16 and flows into the special device operating device 19. To do. In addition, since this center subordinate accessory 16 is a tulip that opens twice, it has two chances to enter the special winning opening 86 and is in an open state until two hitting balls are won between the opening and closing blades 71. To maintain.

Then, the ball enters the lower center accessory 16 from a specific route passing through the distribution passage device 22 and the center accessory 14 and the like, passes through the ball passage 75, and the special device operating device 1
When the ball that has dropped to 9 flows into the special winning opening 86, the special device operating switch 17 is activated to enter the right state. Therefore, the player then repels the second starting prize 25 from the line, for example. And this second starting prize 2
When the variable winning device 27 starts to operate after entering the ball 5, the rotating wing pieces 114 are opened to the second state where the hit ball is easy to win until about 10 seconds have passed or 10 balls have flowed in. Convert. Therefore, if the variable winning device 27 is converted to the second state, the player may concentrate the hit ball on the line next aiming for the variable winning device 27. The second starting prize 25 is present on this line, but since the rotating member 103 of the second starting prize 25 is set to rotate once in 12 seconds, the variable winning device 27 is The second hitting prize tool 25 does not flow into the second starting prize tool 25 during opening and the operation of the variable winning device 27 ends until the next hitting prize tool 25 ends.
Wait on. Therefore, the player can effectively utilize the right to obtain a large number of prize balls.

In this way, according to each stage of the game,
Before changing the so-called puncture to obtain a sufficient profit in order to continuously flow into the special device operating area 18 to operate the special device operating switch 17 when the right course is achieved because the course of shots is changed. The right will not disappear. Moreover, the center prize 16 which is the specific winning opening 15
Since the guide means 81 is provided in the vicinity of the above, it is possible to surely prevent the right state from disappearing by entering the special winning opening 86 again through the center lower accessory 16 in the right state. Further, since the variable winning device 27 and the second starting prize 25, which is one of the starting prizes, are located on the same line, no wasted ball is consumed.

On the other hand, even at a game shop, since the player does not temporarily stop the firing of the hit ball in order to determine whether or not the right is generated and the whereabouts of the hit ball, the operating rate of the gaming table is increased and the sales are increased. It leads to improvement of grades. Also, the special winning opening 86
Since the winning probability setting and the like do not depend only on the nail adjustment, the nail adjustment becomes easy.

In the pachinko machine 1 of the above-described embodiment, the left and right starting prize winning tools 23, 25 are actually placed on the right side of the second starting prize winning tool 25 while the variable winning device 27 is in operation. It will be the center, but a total of 16 hit balls will enter,
The special device operating device 19 is activated again while the variable winning device 27 is operating.
When it flows into the special winning opening 86, the operation of the variable winning device 27 is stopped. Further, the maximum number of times the variable winning device 27 is opened is set to 16. Then, 15 prize balls are paid out to each of the prize winning balls that have entered the variable winning device 27 which is a special winning opening, and 7 prizes to each of the winning balls that have entered a winning opening other than the special winning opening. It is set to pay out the prize balls. Further, each indicator light 29 ... Is turned on or blinked in accordance with each stage of the game, and a sound effect according to the situation of the game is emitted from a speaker so as to raise the atmosphere of the game.

Although the present invention has been described above with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, but can be appropriately implemented without changing the configurations described in the claims. For example, the guide means may be provided not only with an array of obstacle nails but also with an obstacle member, and the specific path by the guide means may be formed on the front side of the game board. In addition, in the center lower role object which functions as a specific condition fulfilling means, instead of opening the opening / closing wing piece by the back interlocking ball, a solenoid is exposed to the ball receiving lever, and this solenoid is normally hit by the symbol display device. In this case, the opening / closing wing pieces of the center lower accessory may be opened by actuating.
