JPH10127935A - Pachinko game machine with discharge ball counter - Google Patents

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the rotation rate of the balls of a hall, to eliminate the need of securing the large amount of the balls and to eliminate the need of carrying ball boxes to a counting place by disposing a game ball take-out means for taking out ball stored by a recording member as game balls inside a pachinko game machine main body. SOLUTION: When hitting balls are put in an upper tray 3 and a hitting handle 12 is turned, they are dropped onto a hitting rail one by one and hit by a hitting rod. Discharge balls are discharged to the upper tray 3 at the time of winning and discharged to a lower tray 4 at the time of being full. When it becomes full, an opening/closing lid 8 is opened and a desired number is returned to a return gutter 5. At the time, a counting member performs counting, a stored ball total is displayed at a display part 9 and they are returned by a 10-piece unit or a 100-piece unit or the like every time a ball lending switch is pressed. Then, when a ball lending card is inserted to a card feeding port 10 and a card return switch is pressed, printing is performed and it is returned. At the time of wanting to turn the printed stored balls back to the game balls, when the ball lending switch is pressed, they are returned by the 10-piece unit for instance at one time.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an apparatus for counting and displaying the pitching of pachinko balls, providing a member for recording on a recording member such as a card or a receipt, and allowing the stored balls to be freely taken out as game balls. The present invention relates to a pachinko game machine with a ball counter.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional pachinko game machine, when a ball is filled in a saucer, the ball is put into a ball box. When a large number of prizes were won during the game and the number of pitches increased, they were put in several ball boxes sequentially, and these boxes were piled up in a nearby passage.

[0003]

According to the above prior art, the rotation rate of the ball in the hole is poor, and a large number of balls must be secured. The ball boxes are stacked in the aisle so that other players walking along the aisle are obstructed. It was heavy and difficult to transport the ball box to the counting place. When a person hit the stacked ball boxes, the ball boxes were turned upside down and the balls were scattered, and it was difficult to return them to the ball boxes. There were the above-mentioned problems.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned problems by providing a passage for returning from a catching tray to a return gutter, disposing a ball counting member in the return passage, and And a recording member for recording on a recording member such as a card, and a game ball extracting device for extracting a stored ball as a game ball by the recording member such as a card are disposed in the pachinko gaming machine body. I do.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the illustrated embodiments. Reference numeral 1 denotes a frame of the gaming surface 2 of the pachinko gaming machine, 3 denotes an upper plate for a shooting ball, and 4 denotes a lower plate for a throwing ball. Reference numeral 5 denotes a return gutter for returning a lost ball.
A passage 6 communicating the return gutter 5 and the lower plate 4 is formed, and a counting member 7 for a sphere passing through the passage is provided in the return passage 5. The lower plate 4 is provided with a lid 8 for opening and closing the return passage 6.
9 is a display section of the stored balls counted by the counting member 7, 1
Numeral 0 denotes a slot for the ball lending card 11, and the number of balls stored is printed on the ball lending card 11 by a well-known printing device disposed inside. Reference numeral 12 denotes a handle, and 13 denotes an opening / closing lid that drops into a ball box. Reference numeral 14 denotes a ball lending switch, and reference numeral 15 denotes a printed card return switch.

Next, the operation will be described. When the shooting ball is put into the upper plate 3 and the firing handle 16 is rotated, one ball is dropped from the upper plate 3 onto the firing rail and hit by the firing rod. When a prize is won, the ball is ejected to the upper plate 3. When the upper plate 3 is full, it is discharged to the lower plate 4. When the lower plate 4 is full of throws, the opening / closing lid 8 is opened and the throws are returned from the passage 6 to the gutter 5 by the number desired by the player. At this time, the number of balls returned to the return gutter 5 by the counting member 7 is counted, and the total number of stored balls is displayed on the display unit 9 at the left end of the lower plate. Each time the ball lending switch 14 is pressed once, the number of stored balls can be returned in units of 10 units, 100 units, or the like at one time. Next, ball lending card 1
When the number 1 is inserted from the card slot 10 and the card return switch 15 is pressed, the number of stored balls is printed by a well-known mechanism provided inside and is returned from the card slot 10.

When the user wants to return the stored ball printed on the ball lending card 11 as a game ball, he presses the ball lending switch 14. Each time the button is pressed, it can be returned in units of 10 units or 100 units, for example.

[0008]

According to the present invention, there is provided a passage for returning from the catching tray to the return gutter, and a ball counting member is provided in the return passage.
A display member for displaying the number of returned balls, a recording means for recording on a recording member such as a card, and a game ball extracting means for extracting a stored ball as a game ball by using a recording member such as a card are disposed in the pachinko gaming machine main body. Since the rotation rate of the ball in the hall is improved, there is no need to secure a large number of balls, and there is no need to stack ball boxes in the aisle. In addition, the stored ball once returned can be freely taken out again as a game ball, which is convenient.
