Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <Industrial Application Field> The present invention relates to a pachinko machine equipped with a new winning ball regulating means.

<Prior art> A winning converter equipped with a movable guide piece that guides a batted ball laterally in a specific state, and a chaser that captures the batted ball guided laterally by the movable guide piece. Pachinko machines are well known as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application No. 101687/1983.

In this conventional configuration, the chucker opens upward, and the batted ball guided laterally by the movable guide piece is regulated by the nails on the chucker and is very easily captured in the chucker and becomes a winning ball. .

<Problems that the invention aims to solve> By the way, as mentioned above, if the capture is taken for granted, it will end up spoiling the interest of pachinko games, and the occurrence of excessive winning balls has been increasing in recent years. It is considered a social problem and is not desirable. On the other hand, as a means of adjusting this winning state, it can also be done by adjusting the nails on both sides of the upper part of the chuck car entrance in the playground and changing the opening degree, but this method does not improve the capture rate. Conversion requires skill, and control of ball release is troublesome.

The present invention aims to provide a pachinko machine of this type that is equipped with a winning ball regulating means that can solve the above-mentioned problems.

<Means for solving the problem> The present invention provides an inflow regulating piece integrally with the chucker at a position directly above the ball inlet of the chucker, and the inflow regulating piece opens diagonally upward. The present invention is characterized in that an inflow port is formed, and the fixed inflow port is arranged to match a predetermined trajectory of a batted ball guided laterally by a movable guide piece.

<Operation> The ball guided laterally by the movable guide piece of the winning converter falls in various parabolic lines due to its horizontal component force. Of these, only those with a predetermined trajectory are captured by the ball inlet of the chucker from the unchanging inlet and become winning balls. Therefore, by adjusting the positions of the integrated chucker and the inflow regulating piece at the design stage of the pachinko machine, the ball capture rate can be easily set, and the ball release can be controlled and managed.

<Example> An example of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a front view of the pachinko machine 1, and in the center of the game board surface 2 there is a winning device 3 to be described later.
is installed. Furthermore, the lower part of the machine frame 4 of the pachinko machine 1 is provided with a ball receiving tray 5, a rotary operation handle 6 for firing balls, and the like.

The prize entry device 3 will be explained in more detail.

10 is a winning converter, and in the center thereof,
Movable guide pieces 14, 14 are pivotally supported on both sides of the storage opening 13 between the upper and lower frame pieces 11, 12. In the normal state, the movable guide pieces 14, 14 stand up as shown in FIG.
5 and 15, and in relation to the inflow of balls into other winning holes, it becomes in a lying state as shown in Fig. 2, and its upper surface guides the batted ball into the storage opening 13, making it a winning ball. At the same time, downwardly inclined surfaces 16, 16 formed at the ends guide the batted ball laterally.

On both sides of the entry prize converter 10, there are chuckers 2.
0 and 20 are arranged.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the chasers 20, 20 have a triangular mounting board 2 that comes into contact with the play board surface 2.
1 and a receiving casing 22, and a winning hole 23 communicating with the winning ball flow path on the back side of the game board surface 2 is connected to the mounting board 21.
is formed, and covers the winning opening 23,
The upper end of the receiving casing 22 extending upward is shaped like an isosceles triangle. The inflow regulating piece 24 is provided integrally with the chucker by connecting its top end to the mounting board 21 and using the connecting leg as the inflow regulating piece 24.

This inflow regulating piece 24 prevents the receiving casing 2 on both sides of the lower part.
Invariant inflow ports 25, 25 communicating with each other are formed in the inlet 2, and these inflow ports 25, 25 open obliquely upward. Moreover, the unchanging inflow ports 25, 25 are
Inflow regulating piece 24 provided integrally with the chuck car
Therefore, the opening width is constant.

The checker 20 is fixed to the play board 2 by nailing the mounting base plate 21 or the inflow restriction piece 24. A number of nails 27a, 27b, etc. are driven between the downward inclined surface 16 and the constant inflow port 25 to generate various ball trajectories. The checker 20 is connected to the winning converter 10.
The lower inclined surfaces 1 of the movable guide pieces 14 are located on both sides of the
The position of the fixed inlet 25 is determined so that the predetermined trajectory of the ball that flies to the side while being guided by the nails 27a and 27b and the fixed inlet 25 coincides with the fixed inlet 25.
By adjusting the position of the inflow restriction piece 24, it is possible to control and manage the ball discharge.

In this configuration, the ball x guided by the row of nails 27a collides with the downwardly inclined surface 16, falls in a parabolic trajectory, and is guided by the nails 27b etc. to the fixed inflow port 25. Flow into the side. At this time, the hit ball x flows into the invariant inlet 25 side from various angles depending on the magnitude of its horizontal component force, etc.
If this inflow angle matches the predetermined trajectory,
Otherwise, it will collide with the receiving casing 22 or the inflow regulating piece 24 and fall to the side of the chucker 20.

Therefore, the sloped constant inlet 25 of the chucker 20
Unlike the inlet of a conventional chuck car, which opens directly above, the downwardly sloping surface 16 and a large number of nails 27a, 27b, even if the ball is guided toward the unnecessary inlet 25 side, it does not necessarily become a winning ball.
This allows for an eventful occurrence of winning balls.

Incidentally, the nails 27a and 27b may be omitted, and the chucker 20 may be disposed with the constant inflow port 25 adjacent to the inflow regulating piece 24 with at least a downward drop gap.

Further, in the above embodiment, the inflow ports 25 are fixed to the left and right by the inflow regulating pieces 24 on the chuck car 20.
25, the outer constant inflow port 25 may be omitted or closed, and only one constant inflow port 25 on the downward slope 16 side may be provided.

Furthermore, the movable guide piece 14 has the function of guiding the movable guide piece 14 to the storage opening 13 on its upper surface, but in a lying state, the movable guide piece 14 is configured to tilt downward and guide it only to the fixed inflow port 25 side. Good too. Various configurations of the movable guide piece 14 that guides the movable guide piece 14 to the fixed inflow port 25 can be proposed.

<Effects of the invention> In the present invention, the constant inflow port 25 of the chucker 20 is opened obliquely upward to capture only the ball hit with a predetermined trajectory.
Even if the ball 4 is converted into a specific state in which it is guided to the unchanging inflow port 25, not all of the guided balls are considered winning balls, and it is possible to generate a variety of winning balls, which increases the interest. Moreover, by changing the position of the chucker 20 and the inflow regulating piece 24 fixed to the chucker 20 during the design of the pachinko machine, the ball capture rate can be easily set, eliminating the need for nail adjustment and increasing the ball output. There are various effects such as ease of control and management of the ball.
