Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a competition game machine.

[Conventional technology]

In general, a game machine is known in which a plurality of models are competed and the order of arrival is applied.

Conventionally, when a model moves, in order to express the running state of the model, a pulse motor is used to drive the model and the movement and stop are repeated in a short time to show the running state of the model. expressing.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

However, when the pulse motor is used, there is a problem that the competitive game machine becomes expensive and the configuration of the entire competitive game machine becomes complicated and frequently breaks down.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and it is possible to realistically represent the running state of a model with a simple mechanism, at a low cost, and to reduce breakdowns. Intended to provide equipment.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

According to the present invention, in a competition game machine in which a plurality of models compete, along a transfer path along which a frame connected to the model is transferred to a bottom plate part of a casing accommodating the drive mechanism part of the model, and It is characterized in that a corrugated plate is laid on the side of the conveying path, and the wheel portion provided on the frame is conveyed on the corrugated plate.

[Action]

Since the wheels of the frame connected to the model move on the corrugated plate, the model moves while the wheels move vertically in the vertical direction. Since the model moves up and down in this way, it is possible to express how the model is running.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 4 is a perspective view of an entire competition game machine used as a competition game machine according to the present invention. Reference numeral 6 in the drawing denotes a base, and a drive mechanism portion 7 is provided on the base 6. A linear lane 1 is formed on the upper surface of the drive mechanism section 7, and horse toys 5 compete on the lane 1. Further, the upper part of the drive mechanism section 7 is covered with a transparent case 8. An operation unit 9 is installed on the side of the base 6.

FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the drive mechanism portion 7 for explaining the lane 1. This lane 1 has a slit shape,
The supporting member of the horse toy 5 is penetrated through the slit.

FIG. 1 shows a sectional view of the drive mechanism section 7. Reference numeral 10 in the drawing denotes a casing, and a corrugated plate 11 is laid along each lane 1 on the upper surface of the bottom plate portion 10a. In addition, as shown in FIG.
A transport path 12 is formed by 11, and the frame body 13 is transported through this transport path 12. A recess 13a is provided on the upper surface of the frame body 13. An end portion of the fixing rod 14 is inserted into the recess 13a on the front side of the frame body 13, and the end portion is screwed to the frame body 13 by a pin 15. In addition, the concave portion 13a of the frame body 13
A free rod 16 is screwed to the rear side of the axle by an axle (not shown), and wheels 17 are provided at both ends of the axle (not shown). The wheels 17 are installed so as to travel on the corrugated plate 11. Further, the upper side of the fixing rod 14 is loosely fitted and penetrates a hole 18b formed in a flange portion 18a protruding to the upper and lower sides of the support plate 18. A horse toy 5 is fixed to the upper ends of the fixed rod 14 and the free rod 16 (Fig. 1). A timing belt 19 is fixed to the support plate 18, and the timing belt 19 is stretched between pulleys 20 and 20 provided at both ends of the lane. Then, the pulley 20 is rotated by a drive motor 21 provided below the bottom plate portion 10a. Further, reversing switches 22 for reversing the drive motor 21 and reversing the direction of the horse toy 5 are provided at both ends of the lane on the upper surface of the bottom plate 10a.

Here, the corrugated plate 11 and the frame 13 are similarly provided on each of the toys 5 of each horse.

When using the competition game machine configured in this way,
A human operates the operation unit 9 to predict the order of arrival of horses. At this time, the order of arrival at the time of this race is determined in advance before the race by the control of the CPU by a random number. When the operation of the operation unit 9 is completed, the drive motor 21 operates and the pulley 20 rotates. Along with this, the support plate 18 fixed to the timing belt 19 moves. This movement of the support plate 18 also moves the fixed rod 14 restrained by the support plate 18, so that the horse toy 5 fixed to the upper end of the fixed rod 14
Moves from one end side to the other end side of the race portion 1b. Further, the frame body 13 screwed to the lower end of the fixed rod 14 also conveys on the conveyance path 12.

At this time, since the wheels 17 of the frame body 13 convey on the corrugated plate 11,
As shown in FIG. 3, the frame 13 is transported while being moved up and down behind it. That is, when the wheels 17 are placed on the peaks of the corrugated plate 11, the rear of the frame body 13 is located above (A in the figure), and the wheels 17 are placed on the valleys of the corrugated plate 11. At this time, the rear of the frame body 13 is located below (B in the figure). As a result, the free rod 16 moves up and down, and the rear of the horse toy 5 fixed to the upper ends of the fixed rod 14 and the free rod 16 moves up and down. Therefore, when the horse toy 5 moves, it is possible to realistically represent the running state of the horse.

The corrugated plate mechanism described above is not limited to the linear lane 1 and can be implemented, for example, when the lane 1 has a horseshoe shape or a track shape.

Further, the corrugated plate mechanism described above can be implemented on the assumption that it will run on a rough road with unevenness when used as a race for automobiles or motorcycles, and is not limited to horse racing.

Further, the model may be a picture drawn on a plate, and its structure may be any structure.

[Effect of device]

Since the present invention is configured as described above, it is possible to realistically represent the running state of the model with a simple mechanism. Further, since the mechanism is simple, there are effects such as being inexpensive and reducing failures.
