[0049] That is, if special conditions described above is achieved, electrical control device Ru rotates based drive motor 46 to a predetermined condition. As the predetermined condition, and until the end of the cycle game from further special conditions are achieved, the
In the embodiment, the drive motor 46 is continuously driven to
However, the front portion 40a of the movable member 40 faces upward.
Drive motor 46 at a timing such that it stops in the state of
It may be stopped.

[0050] Thus, after the special conditions have been achieved, on the movable member 40 in addition to the opening and closing operation of both movable pieces 42, 42
Because downward is started, the space portion 43 between the two movable pieces 42, 42 are opened. Therefore, hitting, which is received by the movable piece 42, 42 roll toward the central space portion 43 by slight down slope of the movable piece 42, the inner end portions of the movable piece 42, 42 It falls from 2 into the space 43 and flows into either the central continuous winning opening 33 or the general winning openings 34 on the left and right thereof. In particular, the continuous winning hole 33
Since most of the hit balls dropped from the space portion 24 are very likely to flow into the continuous winning port 33, it is high if the space portion 43 is opened. The continuation condition is met with probability.

Whether other conditions are achieved is determined.

Incidentally, the above-mentioned elapsed conditions during the cycle game and
The game conditions such as special conditions are not limited to those in the above embodiment, and it goes without saying that various conditions can be set according to various game contents .

FIG . 9 mainly shows the operation of the variable winning device 38.
An example of a control circuit 63 that controls the one function of the electrical control unit associated with the control ones to indicate, game control, as described above
The specific control operation of the above will be described below based on this circuit diagram .

Energization of the movable piece driving electromagnetic solenoid 23 for driving the movable piece is controlled by the rectangular wave pulse oscillator 64, the first counter circuit 65 and the solenoid driving circuit 66. Therefore, every time the oscillation pulse is sent out from the Q0 terminal of the first counter circuit 65, the movable piece driving electromagnetic solenoid 23 is energized, and the movable piece 42 is in the second state, which is the open posture.

The energization time of the movable piece driving electromagnetic solenoid 23 per time, that is, the time of the open posture is determined by the oscillation pulse width T1, and when it is repeatedly opened several times, the repetition interval is the pulse width. It is determined by the repetition cycle T2. For example, to set the opening time of the movable piece 42 to 0.8 seconds, the oscillation pulse width T1 = 0.8 sec, and similarly, to set the repetition time to 0.8 seconds, the pulse period T2 = 0. 8 seconds.

Further , the first and second specific winning openings 9,
10 and each detector S provided in the variable winning device 38
W1 to SW4 are connected to the input terminal side of the control circuit 63, respectively.

When a winning ball is detected by the first and second detectors SW1 and SW2, the first detector SW1 is n times (n = 1) and the second detector SW2 is m times (m = 2). Only open the movable piece 42, and at that time, luckily continue winning prize hole 3
3, the movable piece 42 repeats opening and closing once more (1 = 18) when it is detected by the detector SW3 for continuation, and this number of times is controlled by the first counter circuit 65. The number of oscillation pulses may be selected with n, m, and 1 as the upper limit according to each case.

In this case, the number of oscillation pulses is limited by continuously setting the first counter circuit 65 to the reset state and cutting off the reset input for a certain period of time.

That is, the detection signal from the first detector SW1 is passed through the waveform shaping circuit 68 to the first flip-flop 6
9 to set the flip-flop 69.
Therefore, the inverted Q output of the first flip-flop 69 is L
Since it becomes the level, the first AND gate 70 and the first OR gate 71 are closed, the first counter circuit 65 is not reset, and the oscillation pulse is sent out from the Q0 terminal thereof. Therefore, the movable piece driving electromagnetic solenoid 23 is excited and the movable piece 42 is opened.

On the other hand, since the Q3 output of the first counter circuit 65 rises to the H level after 1.3 seconds, the Q3 output passes from the second AND gate 72 to the second OR gate 73 and resets the first flip-flop 69. It is sent to the terminal and resets the flip-flop 69. Therefore, the inverted Q output of the flip-flop 69 becomes the H level again, and the first counter circuit 65 is converted to the reset state. Therefore, the oscillation pulse is not sent from the first counter circuit 65, and the movable piece driving electromagnetic solenoid 23 is driven.
Is demagnetized, and the movable piece 42 returns to the closed state.

That is, the circuit is designed so that when the ball hits the first specific winning opening 9, the movable piece 42 will open for 0.5 seconds only once after 0.8 seconds.

The detection signal from the second detector SW2 is
It is sent to the second flip-flop 75 via the waveform shaping circuit 74 to set the flip-flop 75. Therefore, the Q output of the flip-flop 75 becomes H level, the first flip-flop 69 is set by the Q output, and the oscillation pulse is sent out from the Q0 terminal of the first counter circuit 65 as in the above description. Therefore, every time the oscillation pulse is sent out, the movable piece driving electromagnetic solenoid 23 is excited to open the movable piece 42.

On the other hand, since the Q1 output of the first counter circuit 65 rises to the H level after 3.2 seconds, this Q1 output passes through the second OR gate 73 and the reset terminals of the first and second flip-flops 69 and 75. To reset both flip-flops 69 and 75. Therefore, as in the above description, the first counter circuit 65 converts the reset state, the movable piece driving electromagnetic solenoid 23 is demagnetized, and the movable piece 42 returns to the closed state.

That is, the circuit is designed so that when the ball hits the second specific winning opening 10, the movable piece 42 repeats opening and closing twice at 0.8 second intervals.

When the movable piece 42 is opened / closed, a hit ball is fortunately won in the continuous winning opening 33, and when the detector SW3 for continuation detects a hit ball, a continuation signal is output. This continuation signal is sent from the waveform shaping circuit 76 to the third flip-flop 78 through the third AND gate 77 and sets the flip-flop 78. Therefore, the inverted Q output of the flip-flop 78 becomes the L level, the first AND gate 70 is closed, and the first counter circuit 6 is closed as described above.
An oscillation pulse is sent out from the Q0 terminal of No. 5. Therefore,
Each time the oscillation pulse is sent out, the movable piece driving electromagnetic solenoid 23 is excited to open the movable piece 42.

Further, the Q output of the third flip-flop 78 is supplied to the motor drive circuit 79 to continuously drive the drive motor 46. Therefore, in addition to the opening / closing movement of the movable piece 42, the movable member 40 starts to move up and down, and the semitransparent disk 55 and the propeller 54 of the movable member 40 rotate.

Further, the Q output resets the first and second flip-flops 69 and 75, and sends the output to the third AND gate 77 through the third OR gate 80 to send the continuation signal from the continuation detector SW3. It shall be valid.

On the other hand, since the Q2 output of the first counter circuit 65 rises to the H level after 29.6 seconds, this Q2 output passes through the fourth OR gate 81 and the third flip-flop 7
8 to the reset terminal of the flip-flop 78.
To reset. Therefore, the flip-flop 78
Since the inverted Q output of is again at the H level, the first counter circuit 65 is converted to the reset state. Therefore, the oscillation pulse is not sent from the first counter circuit 65, the movable piece driving electromagnetic solenoid 23 is demagnetized, and the movable piece 42 is returned to the closed state again, and all the operations are completed.

That is, when one hit ball enters the continuous winning opening 33, the movable piece 42 is designed to open and close repeatedly up to 18 times at 0.8 second intervals.

Also, when the detector SW4 for counting the number of winning balls detects the qth (q = 10) hit ball, the circuit is designed so that the opening / closing movement of the movable piece 42 is stopped at that time. Has been done. For example, if the tenth ball is detected by the detector SW4 at the seventh time, the remaining eleven times are ignored, and the movable piece driving electromagnetic solenoid 23 is demagnetized at that time to move the movable piece 42. Try to return to the closed state again.

The hit ball that has flown into the continuous winning opening 33 is detected by the continuing detector SW3 to achieve the continuation condition, and at the same time, while it is flowing down, the winning ball number detector SW4 is used again. Since it is detected, in actuality, after the continuation condition is achieved, at the time when the (q-1) th hit ball, for example, the 9th hit ball for 10 counts, is detected by the detector SW4, all the operations are ended. .

That is, the count signal from the fourth detector SW4 is sent to the input terminal of the 4-bit digital second counter circuit 83 via the waveform shaping circuit 82. For this reason, the first hit ball is "0
001 ”and the Q0 output becomes logic“ 1 ”to H level, but the second and subsequent hits are similarly counted without affecting the opening and closing of the movable piece 42. When the tenth hit is detected. , The content of the second counter circuit 83 becomes "1010", and the Q1 output and the Q3 output become logic "1" to H level, so the output of the fourth AND gate 84 becomes logic "1" to H level, and its output Is sent to the reset terminal of the third flip-flop 78 via the fourth OR gate 81 to reset the flip-flop 78. Therefore, as described above, the oscillation pulse is not sent from the first counter circuit 65. The movable piece driving electromagnetic solenoid 23 is demagnetized, and the movable piece 42 returns to the closed state.

When the third flip-flop 78 is reset, its Q output becomes L level, the third AND gate 77 is closed, and thereafter, the continuation signal from the continuation detector SW4 is ignored.

On the contrary, while the movable piece 42 opens and closes 18 times,
When the second counter circuit 83 does not count 10, the Q2 output of the first counter circuit 65 resets the third flip-flop 78, and the inverted Q output resets the second counter circuit 83 via the fifth OR gate 85. To be done.

Therefore, the number of times the movable piece 42 is repeatedly opened and closed becomes 1 (1 = 18), or q is set in the second counter circuit 83.
Count the number of hit balls (q = 10) or end the action depending on whichever condition was achieved first.
The cycle game is updated on the condition that the hit ball wins the continuous winning opening 33 in the cycle game , and the number of updates is r times (r = 8) at maximum. However, in terms of the circuit, the basic circuit is when it is updated,
Since the limitation on the number of updates is an auxiliary circuit, the case of updating will be described first.

That is, the cycle game is updated by the continuation signal from the detector SW3 for continuation, and this continuation signal passes through the waveform shaping circuit 76 and the third AND gate 77,
Since it is sent to the first OR gate 71, the first counter circuit 65 is once reset and starts counting again.
Therefore, the Q2 output of the first counter circuit 65 is 29.
Since it starts up again after 6 seconds, if a continuation signal is detected during the cycle game , for example, if it is the seventh time,
The remaining 11 times have been cleared and the counting will start again from the first time.

Further, the continuation signal resets the second counter circuit 83 via the fifth OR gate 85 and restarts counting 10 times. Therefore, when the continuation signal is detected during the cycle game , for example, if it is the seventh ball, the counting is restarted from the first ball without counting the remaining three hit balls.

Next, the limitation of the number of updates is controlled by utilizing the 4-bit digital third counter circuit 86.

That is, the continuation signal from the continuation detector SW3 is sent to the input terminal of the third counter circuit 86. Therefore, the first continuation signal changes the content to "000
However, the Q0 output becomes a logic "1" to an H level, but it does not affect the opening and closing of the movable piece 42, and counts in the same manner from the second time onward. The content of 83 becomes "1000", Q3
Since the output becomes logic "1" to H level, this signal is inverted to L level through the inverter 87 and is sent to the third AND gate 77. Therefore, the third AND gate 7
Since 7 can not take AND, detector S for continuation thereafter
Ignore the continuation signal from W3.

Then, in the final round, the Q2 output of the first counter circuit 65 rises, that is, the movable piece 42 completes the opening and closing of 18 times, or the second counter circuit 83.
10, or the third counter circuit 86 is reset by the output that occurs first, and all the operations are completed.

The variable winning device 38 has been accepted by collaborating.
Based on the hit ball achieving the continuation condition,
The prize device 38 is set to the second state according to the predetermined rule.
Create a special game state that repeats the cycle game to convert
Special game state It functions as an origination control means.

Next, display control of the light emitters L1 to L17 will be described.

The luminous bodies L1 to L4 for displaying the cycle number are
It is normally off, and the lamp display circuit 88 repeats individual lighting or blinking. That is, the third counter circuit 86
When the first time is counted with, the luminous body L1 on the left side in FIG.
Lights up, and when the second time is counted, the second light emitter L2 from the left lights up, the third lighter L3 from the left lights up at the third time, and the right lighter L4 lights up at the fourth time. ,
All the four light emitting bodies L1 to L4 are in a lighting state. From the fifth time onward, the left-side light emitter L1 blinks in order, the right-side light emitter L4 blinks at the end, and all the four light emitters L1 to L4 are in the blinking state, and the final cycle (8 cycles) When all the luminous bodies L1 to L4
Turns off.

The first light emitters L5 and L5 located on the upper stage of the left and right edges 56 of the variable winning device 38 are always turned off.
The lamp display circuit 89 repeats blinking in synchronization with the movement of the movable piece 42. And the cockpit 40 'of the movable member 40
The third light-emitting body L7 located inside is also always turned off, and the lamp display circuit 89 repeats blinking similarly in synchronization with the movement of the movable piece 42.

Further, the light emitters L8 to L16 for displaying the number of counts, which are located below and on the left and right of the movable member 40, always have the rectangular wave pulse oscillator 90 and the fourth counter circuit 91.
It is controlled by and repeats predetermined blinking.

That is, the Q0 output of the fourth counter circuit 91 is sent to the even-numbered light emitters L8, L10, L12, L14 via the sixth OR gates 92, ... Similarly, the Q1 output is sent to the odd-numbered light emitters L9, L11, L13, L15,
Flashing is repeated at 0.25 second intervals with a delay of 5 seconds. Therefore, when viewed from the player, the left and right light emitters L8 to L1
It seems that 4 is blinking alternately in an inverted C-shape and a C-shape. Similarly, the Q2 output is sent to the light-emitting body L16 located at the center, and the blinking is repeated at 0.5 second intervals. Therefore, only the light-emitting body L16 blinks at a long interval, which causes a change in the display mode.

On the other hand, when the continuation detector SW3 detects the continuation signal, the Q output of the third flip-flop 78 converts the fourth counter circuit 91 into the reset state, and all the light emitting elements L8 to L16 are extinguished. Then, the lamps are sequentially turned on according to the lamp display circuit 93.

That is, when the first counter ball is counted by the third counter circuit 86, the light emitter L8 is lit, the second and subsequent lights are sequentially illuminated in the order of the light emitters L9 to L16, and the tenth ball is hit. If detected, the third counter circuit 86 resets the third flip-flop 78.
The counter circuit 91 is also reset, and the blinking state described above is repeated.

As described above, the detection signal of the detector SW4
Based on the count output of the second counter circuit 83 for counting
And the lamp display circuit 93 lights up the light emitters L8 to L16.
The winning that the variable winning device has accepted by controlling
Visually informs the player that a ball has been hit and the ball has won.
You can embody the function to know, of the cycle game notification control means
It is responsible for one function.

Further, the light-emitting body L17 for projection located below the semi-transparent disk 55 is always turned off, and the lamp display circuit 9
The light is turned on while the drive motor 46 is being driven.

That is, the Q output of the third flip-flop 78 is sent to the lamp display circuit 94, and when the Q output becomes the H level, the light emitting body L17 is turned on.

Accordingly, at this time, since the Q output is also supplied to the motor drive circuit 79, the semitransparent disk 55 is rotated by the drive motor 46, and the color change accompanying the rotation of the semitransparent disk 55 is changed to the screen. The part 62 is illuminated from below.

On the other hand, the left and right edges 56 of the variable winning device 68
Regarding the second light emitters L6 and L6 located in the lower row, although not shown in the circuit, this light emitter L6 lights up in the latter half of each cycle, and indicates to the player that the cycle is near the end. To do. For example, the number of times the movable piece 42 is opened and closed is 1
When the 0th time is closed and then the movable piece 42 is opened, that is, when the movable piece 42 is opened more than 10 times or the number of hits in the variable winning device 68 exceeds 5, whichever is achieved first. It lights up according to the conditions, and thereafter continues to light up until the cycle ends. That is, the progress progress state of the cycle game
Light-emitting body L6 that emits light when a predetermined elapsed condition is reached
Continuation conditions are achieved by L6 and its drive control.
The end of the conversion operation of the variable winning device 38
A function to inform you that it was embodied, cycle game report
It plays a role of intelligent control means.

In this embodiment, the movable member 40
Conversion operation start timing and light emission start timing of the light emitter L6
Since it is set to be almost the same as the
The downward movement and the light emission display of the light emitter L6 cause the cycle play.
You can clearly recognize that the technique is about to end
It However, the drive start timing of the movable member 40
And the light emission display start timing of the light emitters L6 and L6 as appropriate.
If you set a different time difference, you can increase the progress of the cycle game.
It becomes possible to notify the player in stages,
More detailed notification of the progress status of the cycle game by the player
It becomes possible to do.

Further, each time a hit ball is won in the variable winning device 38, the sound generating circuit 95 is operated to generate a pseudo sound effect from the speaker 96. That is, the count signal from the detector SW4 for counting the number of winning balls is sent to the sound generating circuit 95, and the speaker 96 is sent each time the count signal is sent out.
To generate the missile launch sound. Thus
For example, a hit ball enters the variable winning device 38 during the cycle game.
Each time a prize is won, the speaker 96 outputs a predetermined sound effect.
Therefore, it is won together with the light emission display by the light emitters L8 to L16.
You can auditorily notify the occurrence of a ball, and keep it during the cycle game.
The winning situation to the variable winning device 38 is made clearer to the player
Can be recognized. Therefore, the second counter
By the path 83, the voice generating circuit 95, the speaker 96, etc.
Also detects and hits the winning ball received by the variable winning device 38.
It is possible to embody the function of notifying that the ball has won the prize,
It can be used as a function of game notification control means.

This speaker 96 and the above-mentioned light emission are provided as a status notification function.
Select either body L8 to L16 or movable member 40
And cycle the visual or auditory alert function independently
It may be added to the game notification control means.

Although not shown in the circuit, the signals from the detectors SW1 to SW3 are input to the corresponding sound generating circuits so that the corresponding pseudo sound effects are generated through the speaker. May be.

Next, the movement of the movable piece 42 and the movable member 40 will be described. When the continuation condition is satisfied, the movable member 40 moves up and down in addition to the opening and closing movement of the movable piece 42. Both operation speeds are preset so that a slight time lag occurs. That is, when the time required for the movable piece 42 to open and close once is 1.6 seconds, the time required for the movable member 40 to make one round trip up and down is set to 1.5 seconds. It is good to make a difference.

Therefore, when a gap is formed between the inner end portion 42a of the movable piece 42 and the front portion 40a of the movable member 40, the hitting ball which is fortunately received by the movable piece 42 is Continuous winning hole 3 located below through the gap
It will flow into either 3 or the general winning opening 34.

FIG. 12 and FIG. 13 show the variable winning device 38.
Another circuit example relating to the operation control of the movable pieces 42, 42 is shown. In this embodiment, the opening / closing interval of the movable pieces 42 is changed.

FIG. 12 shows a part of the control circuit, and the omitted parts are the same as those shown in FIG.

In this embodiment, the energizing time of the movable piece driving electromagnetic solenoid 23 is controlled by utilizing the Q4 output of the first counter circuit 65 '. That is, the first and second specific winning openings 9,
When a hit ball is won in 10, the first counter circuit 65 '
The Q0 output is used to send the oscillation pulse from the fifth AND gate 97 to the solenoid drive circuit 66 via the sixth OR gate 98 to open and close the movable piece 42 for the time and the number of times corresponding to each of the winning openings 9 and 10. Do.

In addition, when the hit ball is lucky in the continuous winning opening 33, the inverted Q output of the third flip-flop 78 is used to close the fifth AND gate 97, and the Q output is used to output the first prize. 6 Open the AND gate 99, for this,
The oscillation pulse from the Q4 terminal of the first counter circuit 65 'is sent from the sixth AND gate 99 to the sixth OR gate 98 to the solenoid drive circuit 66, and each time the oscillation pulse is sent, the movable piece driving electromagnetic solenoid 23 is moved. Conductivity is established and the movable piece 42 is opened.

In particular, the oscillation pulse from the Q4 terminal is shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 3, the oscillation pulse width and its repetition period are set to change with the passage of time. That is, the opening and closing time of the movable piece 42 is set to be short at the initial stage, and as the number of times is increased, the opening time is set longer and the closing interval is set shorter. For example, pulse width A
= 0.3 sec, B = 0.4 sec, C = 0.5 se
c, D = 0.6 sec, E = 0.7 sec, F = 0.8
sec and F = 0.9 sec are set respectively.

Therefore, in the latter half of the cycle, since the time during which the movable piece 42 is open becomes longer, the probability that the continuation condition is achieved by hitting the ball also becomes higher, compared to the case where the monotonous opening and closing is repeated. It is possible to realize exciting and varied games that accurately capture the psychological situation of.

Since the Q2 output of the first counter circuit 65 'rises after 23.7 seconds, the maximum number of opening / closing operations of the movable piece 42 is limited to one (1 = 18).
