The feeling was limited, and there was something unsatisfactory to increase the interest of the game.

On the other hand, recent pachinko machines have a start winning opening, a variable display and a big winning opening on a game board, and when a pachinko ball wins the starting winning opening, the symbols and numbers of the variable display fluctuate. In addition, when the display at the time of the stop is a specific combination, the player is greatly encouraged to perform a predetermined cycle of opening the special winning opening for a predetermined time or until a predetermined number of pachinko balls are won as a "big hit". What is called a so-called Seven machine or right-of-article type, which is designed to give various profits, is predominant.

By the way, in this type of pachinko machine, a "big hit" is generated based on the preset display probability of the variable display, and therefore all the operations up to the occurrence of the "big hit" are performed. The current situation is that it is patterned by electrical control, has little chance, and has little emotion to give to the player, and is getting tired of it. Therefore, recently, there has been a strong demand for the development of a novel and varied prize winning device which is suitable for use in this type of Seven machine or a pachinko machine of the property type.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to randomly distribute a pachinko ball to a V prize hole or a general prize hole according to the timing at which the pachinko ball enters. Thus, the player is provided with a thrill and a sense of expectation, and a winning device for a pachinko machine suitable for use in a seven machine or a pachinko machine of a property type is provided.

In order to achieve the above object, in a winning device for a pachinko machine of the present invention, an enclosure frame is provided on the front surface of a mounting plate, and a ball receiving port is provided at the upper portion of the enclosure frame. In the lower part, a V winning opening and a general winning opening are provided side by side, and a rotating disk having a spiral guide passage, a swinging plate having a vertical distributing passage, and an electric drive means are provided on the back surface of the mounting plate. At the same time, the guide passage of the rotating disc and the distribution passage of the oscillating plate are opposed to each other, and the pachinko ball that has entered the ball receiving port is guided to the center portion where the two passages intersect with each other. Further, by rotating the rotating disk through the gear mechanism by driving the electric drive means, the pachinko ball held between the two passages by swinging the swing plate in a pendulum shape. Allotted to V prize hole or general prize hole It is obtained so as to win.

[0008]

The pachinko ball that has entered the ball receiving port is guided to the center of the intersection of the spiral guide passage of the rotating disc and the vertical distribution passage of the swing plate, and is held between both passages. And
It is held between both passages by the rotation of the rotating disc and the swinging swing of the swinging plate, and then gradually descends along the guide passage, and when the end of the guide passage passes the lower end of the sorting passage, it falls downward. However, depending on the swing timing of the sorting passage at the time of passing, the prize is randomly distributed to either the V winning opening or the general winning opening.
