The partition member 10 is eccentrically pivotally supported by b, and the partition member 10 is provided with a concave portion 10a for receiving one prize A stored in a ball-shaped container. The partition member 10 swings every rotation of the prize storage drum 5 and sends the prize A received in the recess 10a one by one toward the outlet 9b of the prize discharge pipe 9a, and the sent prize A is the base. It is discharged onto the prize tray 11 provided in 2.

The front support 3 to which the rotary operation handle 6 is attached is provided with a coin slot 13, a reset switch 14, and a change return slot 15 on its surface, and a voice generating means 12 comprising a speaker inside. A coin box 16 is installed, and the coin box 16 is configured so that a door 17 with a key can be opened and closed to be taken in and out.

Next, the rotation control means 28 will be described.

As shown in FIG. 4, the brake disc 7 is provided with a plurality of inversion prevention holes 7a, one sensor notch 7b, and one stopper hole 7c. When the brake disk 7 is rotated in the forward direction (clockwise direction), the pawl member 18 does not retract into the prevention hole 7a against the biasing force of the spring 19, as shown in FIG. However, in the case of rotation in the opposite direction (counterclockwise), the biasing force of the spring 19 causes the claw member 1 to rotate.
8 is fitted in the inversion prevention hole 7a, the brake disc 7 and the prize storage drum 5 that rotates together with the brake disc 7
Prevent the reversal of. The notch 7b for the sensor is particularly shown in FIG.
