2. Description of the Related Art In each island of a pachinko game store, usually,
Pachinko ball (out ball) of a sphere sample discharged from each pachinko stand, and pachinko ball (counting ball) of a sphere sample after being counted from a prize ball counter installed at the island end or near the center
In the vicinity of the center, there is provided a pachinko ball lifting device that flows down the transport gutter in the island, re-polishes it, lifts it upward, and circulates and returns. The pachinko ball lifting device uses a polishing medium made of a synthetic resin material or the like for polishing (apparatus), and two cloth belts are used as polishing media to hold pachinko balls between the two cloth belts. And polishing equipment (apparatus) are provided in the mainstream.

[0003] In the pachinko ball lifting device for polishing using the above-mentioned synthetic resin material polishing medium, the synthetic resin material before use is white, but when the dirty pachinko balls are polished, dirt adheres. It turns black. For this reason, in a pachinko game store, a senior clerk removes the surface of a dirty abrasive medium with an abrasive cleaning device after closing the store or on a holiday on the 3rd to 4th day, or removes it and removes it with an abrasive washing machine. And drop
Try to use it again. Also, in the case of two cloth-type belts, the same portion is pinched and polished and passes through, so that the belt itself is stained (darkened). For this reason, a senior clerk replaced the new cloth belt on the 5th to 6th days as described above.

[0004]

However, with regard to the above-mentioned cleaning time of the abrasive medium material or replacement time for a new cloth belt, the replacement time is 3 to 4 days or (5 to 6 days). It varies greatly depending on the operating rate of pachinko machines. This means that the amount of polish using the pachinko ball lifting device (lifting amount) differs between the day when a large number of players played a game due to the replacement of a new unit and the operating ratio was low due to normal sales and when the operating ratio was low due to the small number of players. In addition, the amount of polishing (lifting amount) differs between an island with a large number of pachinko machines and an island with a large number of pachinko machines. Therefore, the next time to clean the polishing medium after the previous cleaning or the next time to replace the newly exchanged polishing medium has been determined based on the feeling of a mature clerk and a rough guide. In other words, at present, it has been difficult to determine whether the pachinko balls that have been polished are really polished, and when to replace them.
