4 is turned on, a stop command signal is output, and the movable member opening / closing devices 285, 285 are stopped.
After 3, 23 are once returned to the closed state, a start command signal for a new cycle is issued and a new cycle is started.

The winning number detected by the winning number detector 16 (SW _E ) during each cycle is displayed on the winning number indicator 442 according to a command from the control chip microcomputer 600.

Further, when the cycle is updated, the display of the continuation number indicator 441 is updated by a display command from the control chip microcomputer 600.

During the predetermined period of each cycle of this special game mode, the change drive device 50 is appropriately driven / stopped, so that the first
While the arms 334, 334 of the flow path changing member 33 are moved up and down,
The winning area changing portions 41, 41 at the tip of the winning area changing member 40 appear and disappear on the partition walls 28c, 28c on both sides of the special winning opening 28.

Further, in each cycle of the special game mode, the ball outlet 264c of the second flow path changing member 264 is stopped in a state of facing backward until the predetermined time elapses from the time when each cycle is started Although the sphere is stored in the flow path changing member 264, when a predetermined condition is satisfied or when the movable member 2
When the driving of the movable member opening / closing driving devices 285, 285 for operating the 3, 23 is completed, the control chip microcomputer 60
The motor 35 is driven by the command from 0 and the second flow path changing member 264 is rotated, so that the stored spheres in the second flow path changing member 264 can flow out from the ball outlet 264c.

FIG. 16 shows the movable members 23, 23, the first flow path changing member 33, the second flow path changing member 264 and the winning area changing member 40 when the game ball wins the one-time opening special winning opening 5. The timing chart of operation is shown.

When the player wins the one-time opening special winning opening 5, the change driving device 50 is driven (excited) for a predetermined time (for example, 0.5 seconds) from the time of the winning, and the arm 334 of the first flow path changing member 33.
Is rotated once, and the prize area changing member 40 is retracted once and then returned to the original state.

Further, from the time of the winning, the motor 35 is driven so that the second flow path changing member 264 pauses for a predetermined time (for example, 0.5 seconds) at every predetermined rotation angle (for example, 180 ° rotation). Then, the cyclic operation of rotating 360 ° counterclockwise and clockwise alternately is started.

And again, from the time of the prize winning for a predetermined time (for example,
After the elapse of 0.8 seconds, the movable member driving devices 285, 285 are driven (excited) for a predetermined time (for example, 0.4 seconds), so that the movable members 23, 23 are opened and closed once.

In this case, the effective time for treating the winning in the special winning opening 28 as the condition for generating the special game is started when the opening / closing operation of the movable members 23, 23 is started, and the opening / closing operation of the movable members 23, 23 is ended. It is a time until a predetermined time (for example, 2,8 seconds) later elapses.

After the expiration of this effective time, the detection pieces 353, 353 fixed to the drive shaft of the motor 35 rotate in a predetermined direction (for example, the direction in which the second flow path changing member 264 is rotated in the clockwise direction) to detect one of them. When the piece 353 first encounters the position detector 271 (SW _F ) and is detected, the motor 35 is stopped and the second flow path changing member 264 returns to the initial position (the position where the ball outlet 264c faces rearward). Will be stopped.

Thus, by rotating the second flow path changing member 264 for a predetermined period even after the movable members 23, 23 are closed, the sphere that has flowed into the second flow path changing member 264 is always discharged to the outside. It is supposed to be done.

FIG. 17 shows the movable members 23, 23, the first flow path changing member 33, the second flow path changing member 264, and the winning area changing member 40 when the game ball wins the specific winning opening 4 for double opening. The timing chart of operation is shown.

When the special winning opening 4 for opening twice is won, from the time of the winning, the change driving device 50 has a predetermined time (for example, 0.25
The arm portion 334 of the first flow path changing member 33 is driven (excited) twice for a predetermined time (for example, 0.256 seconds) with a pause of 6 seconds.
Is rotated twice, and the winning area changing member 40 is retracted twice at the same operation timing and then returned to the original state.

Further, from the time of the winning, the motor 35 is driven so that the second flow path changing member 264 is paused for a predetermined time (for example, 0.5 seconds) for each predetermined rotation angle (for example, a rotation angle of 180 °). It starts a periodical operation of rotating 360 ° counterclockwise and clockwise alternately. And again, from the time of the prize winning for a predetermined time (for example, 0.8
After a lapse of seconds, the movable member driving devices 285, 285 pause for a predetermined time (for example, 0.8 seconds) and a predetermined time (for example,
Movable member 2 by being driven (excited) by 0.8 seconds)
3,23 is opened and closed twice.

In this case, the effective time period in which the winning at the special winning opening 28 is treated as the condition for generating the special game is started when the opening / closing operation of the movable members 23, 23 is started, and the second operation of the movable members 23, 23. Is a time until a predetermined time (for example, 2.8 seconds) elapses after the end of.

After the expiration of this effective time, the detection pieces 353, 353 fixed to the drive shaft of the motor 35 rotate in a predetermined direction (for example, the direction in which the second flow path changing member 264 is rotated in the clockwise direction) to detect one of them. When the piece 353 first encounters the position detector 271 (SW _F ) and is detected, the motor 35 is stopped and the second flow path changing member 264 returns to the initial position (the position where the ball outlet 264c faces rearward). Will be stopped.

FIG. 18 shows movable members 23, 23 from the first cycle to the last cycle of the special game during the special game,
The timing chart of the operation of the first flow path changing member 33, the second flow path changing member 264, and the winning area changing member 40 is shown.

When the game ball wins the special winning opening 28 (V winning) within the valid time when the special winning openings 4 and 5 are won, from the time of the winning until the opening / closing operation of the movable members 23, 23 is started. Within the preliminary time (for example, 4 seconds), the first flow path changing member 3
3, the preliminary operation of the second flow path changing member 264 and the winning area changing member 40 is performed as follows.

That is, a predetermined time (for example, 0.5 seconds) from the time of winning
After the lapse of time, the change drive device 50 is operated for a predetermined time (eg
Every second) for a predetermined time (for example, 0.5 seconds)
Each time a predetermined number of times (for example, four times) are driven to rotate the arm portion 334 of the first flow path changing member 33 a predetermined number of times and the prize area changing member 40 is retracted the same number of times at the same operation timing. It is returned to its original condition.

Further, from the time of the winning, by driving the motor 35, a predetermined period (for example, 0.5 seconds) is paused for each predetermined rotation angle (for example, a rotation angle of 360 ° per second) for a predetermined period. (For example, a cycle of 360 ° / sec), a periodic motion of alternately rotating counterclockwise and clockwise for a predetermined time (for example, 1 second) for a predetermined number of times (for example,
It is performed twice) and returns to the original state (state in which the ball outlet 264c faces rearward).

Then, from the time when these preliminary operations are completed and the preliminary time is completed, the movable member driving device 285, 285 pauses for a predetermined time (for example, 0.8 seconds until the 10th time and 0.5 seconds after the 10th time). For a predetermined time (for example, 0.8 seconds)
The movable members 23, 23 are opened and closed a predetermined number of times (for example, up to 18 times) by being driven (excited) by each.

In this embodiment, each cycle is shortened by shortening the pause time between the 10th to 18th opening / closing operations as compared with the pause time between the 1st to 10th opening / closing operations. Has come to be able to visually recognize that has reached the end.

Further, while the movable members 23, 23 are being opened and closed from the first time to the 18th time, the general winning opening 2 in the winning space 21
When a predetermined number (for example, 2) of game balls are won in 9,29 and the number is counted by the prize number detector 16 (SW _E ), the motor 35 is driven at that time and The two-passage changing member 264 is rotated by a predetermined angle (for example, 180 °) so that the ball outlet 264c faces the front.

In addition, the winning number detector 16 (from the time when the count by the SW _E is counted, the movable members 23, 23 have a predetermined number of times (for example, 18
The change driving device 50 is driven for a predetermined time (for example, 1 second) for a predetermined time (for example, 0.5 seconds) until the opening / closing operation is completed, and the first flow path changing member 33 When the arm portion 334 of the player is rotated, the winning area changing member 4
0 is retracted the same number of times at the same operation timing and then returned to the original state.

In this way, from the latter half to the final stage of each cycle of the special game, it is easy to win the special winning opening 28 and the cycle of the special game is easily updated continuously.

In each cycle of this special game, the effective time that effectively treats winning in the special winning opening 28 as a continuation condition starts from the time when the movable members 23, 23 are opened at the beginning of each cycle, and opens and closes 18 times. Is ended and an extension time (for example, 2 seconds) elapses from the end time.

When the opening / closing operations of the movable members 23, 23 are repeated a predetermined number of times (for example, 18 times) and each cycle is completed, a predetermined time (for example, 0.5 seconds) elapses after a predetermined time (for example, 0.5 seconds). The change driving device 50 is driven (excited) by a predetermined time (for example, 0.5 seconds) with a pause of (seconds) in between, and the arm portion 334 of the first flow path changing member 33 is rotated twice and the winning area is changed. The member 40 is retracted twice and then returned to its original state to end those operations.

In addition, the movable member 23, 23 a predetermined number of times (for example, 18 times)
The motor 35 is driven from the end of the opening / closing operation of the
First, the flow path changing member 364 moves clockwise (when the movable members 23, 23 are opened and closed 18 times, the winning number detector 16
(SW _E ) when there are two or more count detection signals) or counterclockwise (when the movable members 23, 23 are opened and closed 18 times, from the winning number detector 16 (SW _E ). Two
When there is less than the count detection signal, it is rotated half a turn.

Then, after one predetermined rest time in that state, one rotation is made in the counterclockwise direction, and in that state, another predetermined rest time is further rotated in the clockwise direction. When the motor encounters the position detector 271 (SW _F ), the motor 35 is stopped and the second flow path changing member
It returns to the original state where the ball exit 264c of 264 is facing backward.

Thus, by rotating the second flow path changing member 264 for a predetermined period even after the movable members 23, 23 are closed, the sphere that has flowed into the second flow path changing member 264 is always discharged to the outside. It is supposed to be done.

FIG. 19 shows a timing chart of the operations of the movable members 23, 23, the first flow path changing member 33, the second flow path changing member 264, and the winning area changing member 40 during the final cycle of the special game.

Since the subsequent continuation is not performed in this final cycle, it is not necessary to increase the winning probability to the special winning opening 28 after the middle of the cycle.

Therefore, one of the movable members 23, 23 during this final cycle
Even if two or more counts are detected by the winning number detector 16 (SW _E ) during the eight opening / closing operations, the first cycle to the seventeenth cycle
Unlike the case of the cycle (one cycle before the final cycle), the motor 35 is not driven, and the arm portion 334 of the first flow path changing member 33 and the variable winning frame 40 are not operated.

Further, in this final cycle, the first half rotation of the second flow path changing member 264 within the extension time of the effective time is irrespective of whether or not the winning number detector 16 (SW _E ) counts two or more. , Clockwise.

The timing chart of the other operations in this final cycle is the same as that in the first to seventeenth cycles shown in FIG. 17, and the description thereof will be omitted.
