Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention is a special game in which a ball hit by a player satisfies the first condition in the game section, and when this separate game fulfills a specific condition, the special game is played for a certain period of time. If the special conditions are achieved during the special game within a certain period of time, the special game will be repeated for a certain period of time after the special game ends for a certain period of time.
This relates to a pachinko game method that forces players to return the game.
The special game is repeated the number of times set by the counter, and even if the special condition is achieved during the special game in the last round of the set number of times, the special game will be stopped at that time, but the special game will be stopped during the special game. If the ball hit achieves the bonus condition, the game returns to the initial state of achieving the specific condition regardless of the number of repetitions until the bonus condition is achieved, and the special game can be repeated the number of times set by the counter. be.

As is well known, a pachinko game starts when a player hits a ball, and if the ball forms on the surface of the game board and flows down the nine game sections into the obstacle nails, and enters the winning slot on the way, it is safe. A certain number of prize balls are discharged to the player, and if the ball does not enter any of the winning holes, it is guided to the out hole at the lower end of the game. In such a pachinko game, if the winning rate is low, the player will be at a disadvantage and lose interest in the game. On the other hand, if the winning rate is high, it is not only disadvantageous for the pachinko game parlor, but it also stimulates the gambling spirit of the players, which is not a good idea since it becomes a gambling act.

Therefore, the present invention sets a first condition that is difficult to achieve in the game section, and when a ball hit by a player happens to achieve the first condition, a display section or the like starts another game, and the other game is set for the player. If the game is stopped by an external operation or automatically, or if the 1% constant condition is achieved, the player is forced to play a special game for a certain period of time. If the special condition is achieved by hitting a ball during the first special game, the second special game will continue for a certain period of time after the first special game ends.
If the special condition is achieved by hitting a ball during the second special game, the third special game will start after the second special game ends, and the occurrence of special games will be suppressed as much as possible. The present invention maintains a balance between decreasing and increasing the winning rate by giving a large profit to the player when the winning rate occurs.Furthermore, according to the present invention, when a special condition is triggered by a ball being hit during a special game, Once achieved, a new special game will continue for a certain period of time after the end of the special game, so if the special condition is achieved during the special game, the special game will be repeated in the limit, so the special game will be repeated. The number of times is set on the counter, and when the set number of times is repeated, the special game will be stopped even if the special conditions are achieved. However, if the ball hit during the special game fulfills the special conditions. , regardless of the number of repetitions until the reward condition is achieved, the game returns to the initial state of achieving the specific condition, and then it can be repeated the number of times set by the company counter, thereby stimulating the gambling spirit in the player. This is to prevent this.

A specific example of the above-described pachinko gaming method according to the present invention is as follows.

In FIG. 1, a pachinko machine has a ball supply tray on its surface, and when a player puts a ball into the supply tray, the player enters the operating section 3.
When you operate the button, the firing device will operate, so the balls placed in the supply tray will be fired one after another. The fired ball is guided above the game part on the surface of the game board 6 through the guide rail 3, and flows down the game part 7 while hitting an obstacle nail. If the ball enters the winning hole tK on the way down, it becomes safe, and the winning mechanism (not shown) provided on the back side of the game board 6 is activated, and a certain number of prize balls are placed below the surface of the supply plate or the pachinko machine I. It is discharged into a tray. However, if the batted ball flowing down the gaming section does not enter any winning hole t, it will enter the outlobe provided at the lower end of the gaming section and be confiscated.

The first condition to be achieved by hitting a ball is set in the game section 9 described above. According to the embodiment of the drawings, this first condition is based on the left and right specific winning ports toII provided above the gaming section 7,
10h, or the ball passes through a specific winning frame/DO provided below the gaming section.

Since it is preferable that this first condition is not easily achieved, it is preferable to make it difficult for the batted ball to pass through the specific winning slot /Da, just as the specific winning slot toa, iob K batted ball enters and leaves the specific winning slot due to the obstacle nail. In addition, specific winning openings 10@, 16b
and special winning slot 10a K each have a switch mechanism,
When a batted ball enters or passes through the ball, the switch mechanism is momentarily turned on to detect the fulfillment of the first condition.

When the first condition is achieved by a hit ball passing through one of the nine special winning slots by chance, another game is started by electrical means. This Betsu Yugisha has three variable indicators according to the embodiment shown in the drawings //a, //b, //
This is caused by K that c changes rapidly. Each of these variable indicators may be made mechanically by rotating a drum or disk displaying 10 numbers from 1 to O at high speed, or by having 7 segments arranged in a Japanese pattern. This may be done in seconds by electrically controlling the segment display to rapidly change the numbers from 1 to 0.

In any case, when the first condition is achieved when the ball is hit, another game is started on the variable display, and this other game continues for a predetermined time (for example, 7 seconds 1sI). If the player operates the stop switch /J on the surface of the pachinko machine within this predetermined time, the high-speed changes of each variable display //a,, //b, and ilo will stop intermittently, and the window will show the numbers from l to 0. One of the numbers will be displayed. Also, if the player does not operate the stop switch saw within a predetermined time during another game, each variable display will be turned off by electrical means immediately after the end of the predetermined time.
, //6, The high-speed change of ilo stops intermittently,
The state is the same as when the player operates the stop switch/Jft. As a result of the completion of the separate game, if a specific condition is met, a special game will start and give the player a large profit of 4, and if the specific condition is not met, the player will receive a small profit. let This specific condition means, for example, that the window holes of each variable display device //a, //6, //c are all "open".
This is the case when the numbers of are aligned and the stop occurs, and in other cases, there is no specific condition. This specific condition is determined by a determination circuit that determines the stopped state of each variable indicator.

When a specific condition is achieved through a separate game, a special game is started in the gaming section 7, which brings great profits to the player.

In the embodiment shown in the drawings, this special game is played by changing the state in which the special variable prize winning device 13 provided in the game section changes into a state in which it is easy to receive and receive batted balls, and by continuing this state for a certain period of time (for example, 30 seconds). .

This special variable prize winning device/3 has a horizontally long opening 14I, and there is a left and right below the opening 41L! F! Guide pieces /IG, /b are provided at positions separated by j, and auxiliary guide pieces i6g, /4 are provided on the left and right sides above the opening lda.
6 is provided.

The guide pieces /3α and trb mentioned above are connected to electromagnets /leL and /76 provided on the back side of the game board 4.

That is, the rods tta, t of each electromagnetic tta, ttb
The tip of the tb is pivoted to the base end of the actuating rods /9a, lrb, and the base end is pivoted to the actuating frames Oa, -b provided at the tips of the actuating rods /9a, /9b.
a'.

A support pin 23a is provided at the tip of the rotating rod rods 22h and 22h.

- Jb is passed through the game board I and protrudes from the surface, and guide pieces 16a, /4b are attached to the protruding ends of the supporting bins 3G, J, 76.
Each support pin 13m is attached, and the hole 3b has an arc-shaped hole 6. I go to Kosansu.

When each electromagnet t7g, /76 is in a demagnetized state, the support pin ja, -3k is located at one end of the arcuate hole body α, 141b, and each guide piece lza, /j& is located at a distance below the opening /41. . Therefore, most of the batted balls flowing down the game section cannot enter the opening/l.

However, if each electromagnet is excited by α and /b, the rod /1
g, lrb are sucked and the actuating rod /a, /
Since the rotation rods 9b are rotated, the guide pieces tza and trb at the tips of the rotation rods 1S and λ1b have arc-shaped holes.

J16, each guide piece tsa, /16 is located at the lower edge of the opening 741F (chain 1Is in FIGS. 2 and 3). This state is a special game, and the batted ball flowing down the game section rides on the guide pieces tsa and tsh and rolls into the opening /41, becoming a safe ball. Therefore, in the special game, each electromagnet tta, /76 is excited K
The electromagnet tlta, ltb is energized, and continues for the time that the electromagnet tlta, ltb is energized.

When /7b is demagnetized, it returns to its original state due to the force of the spring and its own weight.

In addition, each of the above-mentioned auxiliary guide pieces /ba, /A& are auxiliary electromagnets provided on the back side of the game board similarly to the guide pieces tra and lrb, and the auxiliary actuation roddom α and coro b are on the cosb.
and the auxiliary rotating rod core a is connected via the body b, and when the auxiliary electromagnet Koja and λ36 are demagnetized, each of the auxiliary guide pieces /4g and IAb are located above the opening /41, but the auxiliary electromagnet ko36. When magnet 3h is energized, it is located at the side edge of the can opening Lda. The functions of the auxiliary guide pieces 7ha, it, and b will be described later.

As mentioned above, when a specific condition is achieved in a separate game, the electromagnets L' and α/B are energized, and each guide piece /3α and isb are located on the lower side of the opening /da, making it easy to receive the ball. As a result, the batted balls flowing down the gaming section continuously enter the opening/section and become safe balls. The opening /4I has a continuation opening S where it is easy for a batted ball to enter, and a bonus winning row where it is difficult for a batted ball to enter, and when a ball that enters the opening /41 during a special game enters the continuation loco T, The nuclear sphere flows down the special channel 3° and is detected by the special switch 3/. When the special switch 3/ detects the ball in the channel 30, the second special game continues for a certain period of time after the special game ends for a certain period of time. That is, when the special condition is achieved during the special game when the ball continues to enter the loco TPC, the special switch 31 is turned on, so the electromagnet /711, which was energized, is energized again immediately after it is demagnetized, and the second □ The special game is repeated for a certain period of time. If a ball enters the continuation loco I during the second special game, the third special game is immediately repeated even if the second special game ends. Therefore, the special game will be repeated many times if the special condition is achieved during a certain period of time. However, if the special condition is not achieved by the ball hitting the opening /41 during the special game within a certain period of time, the special game ends at the time when the special game ends. In this way, batted balls are ranked first in the game club.
If a condition is achieved, a separate game will occur, and if a specific condition is achieved in a separate game, a special game that can bring significant profits to the player will occur, and the special condition is achieved while the special game continues for a certain period of time. Then, after the special game ends, the special game is repeated again. Therefore, as long as the special conditions are met, the special game will be repeated as many times as you like.
Since it provides significant profits to players, it may encourage gambling or become a gambling-like act.

Therefore, in the present invention, the number of repetitions of the special game is set to a constant value (for example, 10 times, or 5 times), and if the special game is repeated a certain number of times, even if the special condition is achieved, the special game will not be played. However, if the ball hits a special condition different from the special condition during the special game, it will return to the initial state of achieving the specific condition regardless of the number of repetitions until the special condition is achieved, and after the special condition is achieved, the special condition will be returned to the initial state. As long as the conditions are met, the special game can be repeated up to a set number of times counting from the first time. The number of repetitions of this special game is determined by the number of times set in the counter circuit.
electromagnet/? When g and /76 are energized the number of times set by the counter circuit, the electromagnets tta and nh are no longer energized and the special game is stopped. However, if the ball is hit nine times during the special game and the bonus conditions are achieved, the bonus prize will be won! The privilege switches 3J of the three privilege channels communicating with detect the batted ball and return to the initial state in which the specific condition is achieved. In other words, when the privilege condition is achieved, regardless of how many times the electromagnets tta and itb have been energized up to that point, the system returns to the initial state of achieving the specific condition.
The first special game is started again. In addition, it is desirable to plant an obstacle nail S41 in front of the bonus prize winning loco t to make it difficult for the ball to hit the ball, that is, to make it possible for the bonus condition to be achieved and the ball to be released. Therefore, according to this invention, although the special game provides a large profit to the player, the degree of profit can be appropriately suppressed, and it is possible to prevent gambling-like behavior that arouses the desire for gambling.

The pachinko gaming method of the present invention will be explained below based on the block diagram of FIG.

The batted ball flowing down the game club is a specific prize winning hole 10 &.

When the first condition is achieved by entering 10h or passing through the specific winning slot 10c, the detectors /ad and 10h' facing each winning opening /Da, 10h or winning slot 10e are activated.
.

Either output of 10/ is inputted from OR gate 33 to register 347/C, and flip-flop 7'yta is input.

6.

Each oscillator 39m since it is given to Jte's single power.

Every time there is a signal from svb or Jve, a signal is input to the KIO counters 0α, 410b, 410a. Upon receiving this check signal, each decimal counter ll0a, 4IOb, 4IOo becomes 1,
The outputs of 2, .9, and '0 are variably transmitted at a speed corresponding to the frequency of the oscillator, and these outputs are given to the variable indicators //a, //6, //e via the driver. Therefore, each variable display changes rapidly with the numbers from 1 to 0 invisible. Jin's condition is another game,
This separate game is continued for a certain period of time (for example, 7 seconds). When the player operates the stop switch saw within a certain period of time in this separate game, the flip flora 23 is activated via the OR gate 41/.
Input is input to the reset side of C. When human power is applied to the reset side, the output of the flip-flop 37OFiQ becomes low level, so the AND gate Jle whose input is connected to this Q output closes, and therefore the decimal counter 6a Fi
A N D game) Jla stops at the number it was counting just before closing, and the variable display //a becomes in a state displaying that number.

On the other hand, since the state of the flip 70 knob J7a is reversed, the 100 output becomes a high level, so the timer octopus b connected to this output is activated, and when a predetermined time elapses, for example, 1 second, a high level output is output. emits. Since this output is given to the reset input of the flip-flop 3te, the decimal counter IIoh is stopped by the same effect as the flip-flop 3te, and the number is displayed on the variable display itb. flip flop J
? Activate one timer octopus a, which is activated by the reversal of the output of 6. Since the output of this timer 4I-α is set to 111M to reset the remaining flip-flop 37α, when the predetermined time set in this timer, for example 1 second, has elapsed, the high level output from the timer 3a causes The state of the flip-flop Jug is also reversed. Then, as before, the KIO advance counter 1IOa counts a fixed number and stops while outputting it, so the corresponding variable display //a also stops displaying that number.

In addition, the tire 417 is connected to the Q output of the flip-flop Jte which is first reset by the operation of the stop switch l-, and this output is connected to the reset input of the roaring cough 7 rip 70 tsubu Jri 0 via the OR gate. Since it is connected, this tire adapter J will operate at the same time as the 7-lip 70-tub Jte is set. Then, after the tire 41J is set and a certain period of time has elapsed (for example, 7 seconds), the state of the flip-flop 3C is forcibly reversed, and the above-described circuit operation occurs. This means that even if the player carelessly or intentionally does not press the stop switch, the circuit system including the counter will be returned to its initial state after the set time of the timer has elapsed. In other words, another game will be terminated. This is because, if the timer 413 were not provided, the game would continue to a minimum unless the stop switch saw is operated.

As described above, each lO base counter Da, Da0b.

When #0C outputs each predetermined count value and stops, 2
The evolved decimal output, that is, the output of each of the relevant bits having a weight of 1-2-4-8, is input to a comparator or discriminator Q3 formed by a combination of ordinary matching circuits. This discriminator 41
．． 7 is the first and second.

Emit a third output. For example, the counter output of the first output 4Izahaspay is a predetermined decimal value, for example "7
” (all three digits on the display are set to “7”),
The second output zb is a counter Oe.

The decimal value of the output of only daOh is the same (i.e. only the variable display tie, //6 is "1" and rlJIr4J and "
4", etc.), the third output tei jC will be sent for that tsukuda.

When the first ka-tei j- is transmitted, it is the start of a special game, and this output is given to the single power of the AND game, )paw, and the third power of the AND gate 61 is finally reset with respect to the counter. It is connected to the 6 outputs of the flip-flop 37G.

However, the AND gate 414g opens and the OR game)
4g? A high level is given to the single power of other AND gated lα through. The output of this AND gate #tIII receives the 4 outputs of the flip-flop 419m whose set input is connected to the output of this AND gate 4ItIII, so the AND gate 11fa can take an AND,
Flip-flop eta is inverted to make the q output high level. Of course, at the same time, the Q output of the 7-lip flip-flop circuit goes to a low level, so the AND gate 41, which has set the flip-flop data a, is closed at this point.

When the flip-flop 419a is set in this manner, a high-level Q output is given to a single-person force of 10 m.

On the other hand, the other input, which is the inverted input of kOeL (this AND gate), is a 4-bit parallel output terminal (for convenience, 0, 1, 2 degrees from the lowest This shift register receives feedback from the most significant bit (No. 3) of the shift register 51a (marked with the number 3), and this human input is the inverting input! (This AND game) where lα is inverted and reset by the low level Q output of the previous flip-flop cage in the non-set state.
10g will be under the control of the other remaining human power, Nyoki. And AND gate! At the lowest input of Oα, there is an oscillator S that emits a high-level pulse signal at an appropriate frequency.
Since the output of this is connected, it is an AND game) 10G
The output of SIA becomes high level in accordance with this frequency, and each time the shift register sia changes the output to "1" or high level one bit at a time. This is the most significant bit (No.3)
The process continues until the driver j16 operates via the OR gate 53α with the Nol output, and the electromagnet/?
The fact that a is excited means K. Then, with a delay of 10\, the high level transition of the No2 output causes an OR gate! The driver C is operated via 36, and the electromagnet/B is energized. Furthermore, No
When the third output becomes a high level, the inverting input of the AND gate SOα is inverted, so the AND gate SOα is closed, and the shift register j/α becomes the gold bit or rlJ and stops.

Therefore, both sides' magnets lα and /b continue to be energized, so that the guide pieces 13α and isb are located at the lower side of the opening /411, and the special game continues.

The timer srsα is activated by the high level transition of the No. 3 output of the shift register SIC to end the continuation of the special game within a certain period of time.

That is, when a predetermined period of time (for example, 30 seconds) has elapsed after the timer jjg is activated (after the electromagnets l?α, /rib are energized), a high level output is generated. This output is given to the AND game) which connects Tagata to the reset input of the flip-flop 419α, and is given to the Mukuro AND game), 1
Since the other power of 4g is already at a high level at this point when the Q output of the flip-flop 9a is returned, the AND of both powers can be taken, and the output of the gate 2 is connected to this flip-flop rite. is reset. AND gate that was reset at the same time as this reset! ragFi
Close and return to initial state.

By resetting the flip-flop tI9α,
The shift register sin, which inverts the Q output and uses it as a reset input, is reset, and all bits become 051a low level. As a result, the shift register /α' returns to its initial state, so the magnets of both sides, /α and l, are demagnetized and the special game ends.

In addition, there is a timer for a certain period of time that the special game continues! ! This book adds the operating time (shift time, etc.) of each circuit to the setting time of α (30 seconds), but since the operating time of each circuit is negligible compared to the timer setting time, both sides' magnets 771B, It is recognized that the excitation time (fixed time during which the special game continues) of /7M is determined by the timer rsa.

As described above, the detectors 10α', tob',
When toc' is turned on, the IO advance counter 4Ioa is activated by operating the stop switch l- or by counting up 30 on the timer.
, +ob, and 41oc stop, and their output numbers are all "7" (that is, the weight outputs of 1-2-4 are "7").
1” output of weight l is “0”) Both sides magnet/71! .

/76 is energized and until it is demagnetized after 30 seconds, that is, 1
One cycle of the special game will be explained in detail.

However, when the batted ball that enters the opening L continues to enter the opening l during this periodic operation, flows down the special flow path 3, and turns on the special switch 3, both electromagnets l g again for 30 seconds.
, /? 6 is excited, so the special game repeats. That is, the Q output of the flip-flop 9@ before being reset by the timer ZZa is given to the AND gate S which makes the output of the special switch si its own power. Therefore, both electromagnets ita, /
If the special switch 3 is turned on while 76 continues, the AND gate I will open and the clip 70 tab 2g will be set. This flip flop! I is a memory circuit until information about the next electromagnet excitation operation arrives, and then the signal for exciting both electromagnets is set to the high level of the q output and an AND gate is applied! I'm sending it to my 9th-year-old and waiting for it.

When the first special game ends after a certain period of time (30 seconds) and the output of the jug reaches a high level (as described above), the one-shot multivibrator circuit 40 emits one pulse. , this pulse is A
It is applied to the ND gate 3t. Therefore, AND game)
! ? Now, an AND operation is performed with the high level Q output of the flip-flop IT, which has already been completely exposed as described above, and a high level signal is sent to the AND gate 1g via the OR gate.

If this happens, the difference from the discriminant profit Dada explained earlier will be solved.
Since the same operation as with the 1 output 4ISa starts, both electromagnets 176 are energized for the time set by the timer 1g, and the special game is repeated.

The output of the OR game) 4I7 resets the flip-flop 5I via another OR game) A/, and the reset flip-flop 3I is activated when the special condition is achieved during repeated special games and the special switch 3/ is activated. The signal when turned on will be memorized. If the special condition is not achieved, there will be no signal from the special switch 31, so after the special game ends, all the circuits will return to their original state, and if there is a signal from the special switch 31, the special game will be repeated again. It will be.

There is a possibility that the excitation operation of both electromagnets tya, /lh, which continues for a certain period of time (30 seconds), can be repeated an infinite number of times, with the certain period of time as one basic unit. In other words, even during the special game, the player continues to hit the ball,
If the special condition is achieved even with one of the balls, the special game with the same conditions will be repeated again, so as long as the special condition is achieved during the special game, the special game will be repeated an infinite number of times, and the player will be surprised. can bring profit.

When this happens, playing pachinko becomes a gambling activity rather than an entertainment, and instead of enjoying the game, it becomes a kind of koji.

To prevent this, the repetition of the special game may be stopped by a so-called stoppage. However, as is well known, stopping is done by stopping the supply of prize balls to the tank provided on the back side of the pachinko machine, so tz > mr will be added to the number of special games. For example, the number of repetitions of the special game is different between the case where the prize ball bronze ball is supplied three times and the game is stopped, and the case where the prize ball is replenished three times and the game is stopped. This will kill the interest in special games.

Therefore, in the present invention, the following circuit configuration is added to limit the number of repetitions of the special game to a fixed number (for example, 10) by electrical means.

For example, 6 N-ary counters are set to N = 10 to make a 50-ary counter, and the carry signal (carry signal) of 1 counter is used as a special switch signal storage circuit 7 lip-flop 5t via OR game) A/. I'm trying to reset it. The 6 N-ary counters count once from the basic unit of the first special game, and count this basic unit 10 times. Therefore, until the 9th basic unit, the carry signal from the counter 6 is not output, so every time an output is output from the special switch 3/ for each special game, the flip-flop which is a memory circuit! The rt memorizes this fact, and when the special game ends, the next special game is played. However, when the 10th special game is played, the N-ary counter 4- issues a carry signal and takes control to maintain the reset power of the flip-flop jl at a high level, even if there is an output from the special switch 3/ during that time. , the Q output of nuclear flip-flop 5g is pulled to a low level. Therefore, even if there is an output from the special switch 3/ during the continuation of the special game, that is, even if the special condition is achieved, there is no output from the special switch 31, and the 11100 special game will not occur.

In order to cause such an operation, the N-ary (decimal)
The counter 4J requires the following conditions. That is, KIJ must be set before the first count of the start of the special game, and "1" must be counted up every time the special game is played. Such conditions can be easily set by a so-called skilled person by constructing arbitrary logic, but in the embodiment shown in the drawings, processing is performed as follows.

First, the counter is reset using the first output 4Ijg of the discriminator 4141, which is the starting condition for the first special game, and the repeated count of the special game is performed using the electromagnet/'lt.
The timer jjα starts after x, /76 is excited.
time-up signal (AND game) signal to k4a)
is used as a counter input.

Therefore, before the first start of the special game, one decimal counter outputs the first output! It is reset by α, and when the special game is repeated 10 times and the signal from timer jja is given 10 times, a carry signal is generated and the flip-flop! t
, the 11100 special game will not be played.

Also, if you hit the ball during the special game, it will be tIF! When the bonus condition is achieved by entering the winning locode, the bonus switch 33 detects the hit ball and provides an output to the AND gate 4J. AND
Since the gate 6J receives the Q output of the flip-flop 1ira, it opens when it receives the output from the bonus switch 33 during a special game where the Q output is at a high level, and the AND output is sent to the N-ary counter via the OR gate 6. Reset 4 pieces. When the 4 N-ary counters are reset, the discriminator ++
When the first output $68 is received, the state returns to the same state as at 9, that is, the initial state where the specific condition is achieved. Therefore, the N-ary counter 6 starts counting again from the first time, and when it receives the signal from the timer ZZa 10 times, it issues a carry signal and resets the flip-flop 3g.

In addition, in this embodiment, a monitor switch At is provided on the back side of the pachinko machine for convenience during maintenance and inspection.
When you operate this, each decimal counter data Oαt ”17b

If the conditions are met and there is another game, and in this other game the specific conditions are met and it becomes a special game, the determination circuit 4I
Everything is activated by the first output 4'ja being transmitted from the reference point.

However, if the specific condition is not achieved in another game and it becomes the first profit game, that is, each decimal counter 4Ioα,
*ob, Counter Oe of ZeOc.

A case will be explained in which the decimal values of only 0h are aligned and the discriminator 4I outputs the second output 415b.

In this case, the profit level for the player is much lower than that of the special game, and the second output is 41zb, and the already Ki
T? As explained above, the 4 outputs of 7, 70, 3, and α, which are reset, and Ω are taken by the AND game) 114b), and this AND output is taken by the other AND game) 11
It is given to tb's single power. In this game) Qlb's other power receives the 4 outputs of flip-flop Dade b with this gate output as set input, so in the end it is connected to the AN
(D game) Atb is also opened, flip-flop nb is set, and Q output becomes high level.

At the same time, the 4 outputs become low level and the AND gate 41zb
closes. On the other hand, Q due to the set of flip 70 tube 1h
The high level signal at the output is sent to one non-inverting input of a three-input AND gate 3o6 which has one inverting input and the inverting input to this gate)! The most significant bit output of the shift register stb, which has a 6-bit parallel output terminal that receives the output of rOb as a clock, is received, and since this output is at a low level, the oscillator is connected to the remaining non-inverting input! The AND gate 5nob passes this every time the - output is entered, so the shift register z/b starts from the LSB. The parallel bit output is sequentially set from "1" to high level toward the MSB. This is the driver! The auxiliary electromagnet top is excited via +1α, then the OR game)! 3a, the electromagnet /la is magnetized via the driver rub, and then the OR gate t3b.

The electromagnet /76 is excited via the driver or 4 IC, and finally the auxiliary electromagnet -zk is excited.Then, the shift register 3r/b subsequently outputs the MSB output as rl.
If J, then this output closes AND gate S06,
Since the output of the oscillator 3.2 is no longer given to this register stb, each electromagnet! g, /rig, /? 6
, -5b are continuously excited. This state is the mode of the first profit game, and each electromagnet tta, /76,
Ko! rt, 2! When rh is excited, as mentioned above, when the guide piece /jα and tsb are located at the lower side of the opening l-tei, the auxiliary guide piece #a is activated.

/46 are located on the left and right sides of the opening lda. Therefore, when a batted ball flowing down the gaming section reaches the opening, it is guided by one of the guide pieces and goes inside, becoming a safe ball, increasing the probability of the batted ball winning a prize.

The first profit game described above does not continue indefinitely, but only for the time set by the timer zsb. This timer j3h starts operating with the output of the shift register zibOMBB, and when the set time (for example, i1s seconds) is exceeded and the time is up, the AND gate 366 performs an AND operation with the Q output of the set flip-flop 4!9h. The output to AND gate s4 causes flip-flop 4'? At the same time that & returns to its initial state, the low-level Q output is applied to the ghost reset input of shift register stb having an inverted reset input via OR gate 67α, and shift register z
tb is reset and all electromagnets -! IK, /
71B, /76, -5b are demagnetized. Therefore, the first profit game continues for 15 seconds, for example, set by the timer &j&, and there is no repeat function like the special game described earlier, and when it ends, it returns to the initial state of waiting for the second output ash. .

In addition, the structure of the code|symbol which added b to the number in the circuit of the 1st profit game is the same as the circuit O structure in the previous special game.

On the other hand, if the player's batted ball achieves the first condition in the game section, but does not achieve anything in another game, the discrimination circuit gets the third output 4! If the IC is issued, it becomes a second profit game. This second profit game has even less profit status for the player than the first profit game, and the circuit configuration of this second profit game is almost the same as the circuit configuration of the first profit game, as is clear from the drawings. To explain the electrical processing mm* of this second profit game, the third output data C and the flip-flop 37a
The AND with the o4 output is taken by AND game) 446, and the AND output of Jin is given to the other AND game) 1ire's single power. This AND goo) Jilt will open because the other person's power is receiving the 7 lip flop qetctv'i2 output, and the flip flop tei 9C
is set and the Q output becomes high level. The high level signal of the Q output of 50C is sent to one non-inverting input of the 3-input AND gate 0C with one anti-snoring power, and the inverting input has a two-bit parallel output terminal that receives the output of this gate 50C as a clock. Receives the most significant bit output of the shift register StC, and since this output is at a low level, the oscillator is connected to the other non-inverting input! AND Kate jO in the darkness where the - output enters
C passes through this, so the shift register SIC is L
Sequential parallel bit output from SB to MSB as “1”
I will set it to a high level. First of all, OR game)
S,? a and driver 541b 1 (via electromagnet it
a is excited, then OR game)! T3b.

The t-magnet ttb is excited via the driver 54IC, and then if the MSB output is rlJ, this output becomes an AND game) 10e is closed and the output from the oscillator is no longer given to the register 1/e, so Both electromagnets 1
7α, iyh are continuously excited. This state is the mode of the second profit game, and the image guide piece /! is placed on the lower side of the opening /41 by excitation of both electromagnets tta and itb. 1m, /
! b is located, and a part of the batted ball hits both guide pieces tza, t
The ball flows into the opening/ball by sh and becomes a winning ball.

Therefore, the second profit game is electromagnet/741, itb
The guide piece L is positioned at the lower side of the opening/da to receive the batted ball flowing down the gaming section, and the timer! It continues for the set time of jc (for example, 5 seconds). To the corresponding timer! t.

is M8B of shift register 310 as well as timer j36.
It operates with the output, and when the time is up after 5 seconds have elapsed, the AND gate 56o takes an AND with the Q output of the set flip-flop, and the #AND game)
When the flip-flop 419c is reset by the output of e and returns to the initial state, the low-level Q output is given to the reset input of the shift register via the OR gate 47b, and the output of the shift register j /cI is reset and both electromagnets /7g and /rib are demagnetized.

Therefore, the second profit game is set by the timer zze and continues for, for example, 5 seconds, and like the first profit game, there is no repeat function.

In the second profit game, # is added to the number and the configuration of the nine symbol is the same as the circuit configuration in the special game.

In addition, in the circuits of the first profit game and the second profit game, the reset signal lines to the shift registers sib and k/e have OR games) bta and Ab, and the OR game) Aha and 476 other people's power are included. is connected to the reset signal line to the shift register j/g for the special game, even if the circuit system is operating by the first profit game or the second profit game, at the same time as resetting the special game, all the electromagnets This is the ninth K which demagnetizes the magnet.

Next, a case will be described in which the probability of occurrence of a special game is electrically adjusted.

Now, 3 bits 0 decimal count fi 4IOa, 4IOb
, Assuming that the output of 410c is not modified in any way,
Considering it in decimal notation, the probability that all of these output numbers are a single number, for example "7", is 1 in 10, or 10.
It is 1/00, and it is only 1 out of 100 times that the special condition is achieved in another game. Considering the state of the weighted bits of each 1o-adic counter in this case, it is "0111" starting from the weight t.

However, among the three counters, which one is one counter (
For example, if the output of Ilm, that is, the output of weight 1 of 10 power output am) is pulled up to 1 power supply potential 1 V as shown by connection line 41tg and fixed at 1JK, the remaining 8-4-2 bits will be The numerical value “011” is the decimal number “7 J (0111) (-@J (0110)
There is. That is, even though the counter eoa actually outputs "6", it is output as "7", and in the end this counter *O
If a outputs "7" or "6", it can be considered that it outputs "7". Therefore, this counter lOa
The probability that outputs “γ” is determined by other counters sob,
It becomes 1/5 of 1/10 of woe. Next to each counter. The probability that g, 4Iob, and 3□〇 are all "7" is 1/s'X'/1o X'/1
o-1/s o The probability of a special game occurring increases.

In exactly the same way, connect the two 1o base counters am with the connecting line 4zb, pool up the LSB of #ob to the power supply potential +V (111, and determine rlJKr!lJ, then the probability that each counter will be ``7'' is `` /s X ''/s X'/l
o = '/2 s o, so it becomes 1/250, so if we pull up the connecting wire 41e LBB to each counter peoe, 41ob -+ eoe and -, we get '/sX
”/s X”/! There will be 1 out of 125 times in which the specific condition is achieved in a separate game with I Drive 'Ass. Of course, this probability adjustment can be performed on any bit output, and instead of pulling up to the power supply potential, any bit can be pulled down to ground potential,
That is, it is also possible to fix it to binary rOJ.

The electrical operations of the special game, the first profit game, and the #I2 profit game described above are just one example, and the circuit can be freely designed using any electronic means that can be considered.

To summarize, the present invention provides a special benefit to the player by starting a separate game when a player's ball hits a first condition, and when this separate game achieves a specific condition, a special game is held for a certain period of time. and within a certain period of time during the special game, if you participate in the special game and the 9th ball hits the special condition, # After the end of the special game, you can repeat the special game with the same conditions again and again to play the pachinko game. A gambling act that not only increases interest but also stimulates the gambling spirit of players by limiting the number of times the special game is repeated to a certain number and returning to the initial state of achieving the specific condition only when the bonus condition is achieved during the special game. It prevents it from happening.

Therefore, it is possible to provide a pachinko game aimed at a healthy entertainment game.

Note that the design of the present invention #'i can be changed in any manner as long as it complies with the claims.For example, as described above, the circuit can be changed appropriately, and the number of decimal counters can be changed. It may be possible to perform only a special game by changing the number of electromagnets or the number of electromagnets, or to selectively perform either or both of the special game and the first profit game and the second profit game. You can do 4 things in different ways.

Further, the manner in which the privilege conditions are achieved is not limited to the above embodiment.

For example, the bonus prize opening may be provided at the upper part of the playing area, or may be provided at a position where it is difficult for the ball to enter.
