Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

The present invention relates to a mahjong ball machine that is capable of forming ±υ roles of mahjong tiles by reach, and makes it impossible to re-hit any balls other than Tsumo-kiri after reaching, and also makes it possible to easily re-hit balls by Tsumo-kiri. In addition, the player can easily know the waiting tiles at the time of tenpai. In a mahjong ball machine in which a predetermined number of balls are launched and the mahjong winning hands are formed by introducing the ball receivers containing the balls, the mahjong tiles (hand tiles) corresponding to the ball receivers containing the balls are A plurality of variable display parts are provided to variably display the pattern of the ball, and by turning on the phrase inscription switch corresponding to each variable display part, it is possible to re-hit the ball, and it is also possible to form ±Dff by reach. There is something. However, with this type of conventional mahjong ball machine, it was possible to re-hit the balls other than Tsumo-kiri even after reaching the ball, so players who were not familiar with mahjong in particular would not be able to play mahjong balls in accordance with the mahjong rules. There was a problem. When re-hitting a ball using Otatsumo-kiri, it may be difficult to know which mahjong tile (Tsumo tile) corresponds to the ball receiver containing the ball with a predetermined cutout. It couldn't have been done smoothly. Furthermore, players must be able to judge the poetry monuments themselves when they are in tenpai, and especially those who are not familiar with mahjong may not be able to judge the poetry monuments or make mistakes. There was a problem of lack of quality. The present invention has solved the above-mentioned problems, and is characterized by the fact that a number of ball receivers corresponding to the patterns of the mahjong tiles provided at the bottom of the board are arranged, and a predetermined number of balls are launched. A variable display that variably displays the pattern of the mahjong tile (hand tile) that corresponds to the ball receiver that contains the ball, and the combination of the ball receivers that contain the ball forms a mahjong winning hand. At least a plurality of sections are provided corresponding to the number of pitches mentioned above, so that it is possible to re-hit the pitch by turning on the phrase inscription switch corresponding to each variable display section, and it is possible to re-hit the pitch by turning on the phrase inscription switch corresponding to each variable display section. In the mahjong ball machine, which made it possible to form a winning hand by turning on the reach switch when the hand can be formed (tenpai), a Tsumo-off switch and a poetry monument switch were provided, and a Tsumo-off switch was installed. By turning on, it is possible to re-hit the ball corresponding to the ball receiver containing a ball for a predetermined number of days (Tsumo-kiri), and after reaching the ball, it is impossible to re-hit the ball by using the inscription switch. and a poem monument display function that erases the hand tile display on the variable display section by turning on the poem monument switch when tenpai, and also displays the pattern of the mahjong tiles (poetry monuments) necessary to form the above-mentioned winning hand on the variable display section.

22) and the cursor display area (δl) to (322) are erased, and at this time, if the tiles in hand form an ascending hand, the ascending hand takes into account Dora, Wind, Triple tiles, Leech, and Kung. The corresponding number of coins is paid out to the coin tray (64), and then the characters indicating how the coins should be spent and the pattern of the mahjong tiles are variably displayed on the variable display sections (al) to (α22). [19] After turning on the payment switch (63) and turning on the confirmation switch (70), step (, 21 ((a)
(Judgment and processing are performed in the loop of 71 (gl). As a result, the state of the hand tiles, etc. before turning on the variable display parts (al) to (α22) and the cursor display part ψIK settlement switch (63ゝ) is variably displayed. [20] When a coin is inserted into the coin input slot←9) during the game, the coin input switch (60) is turned on, and judgment and processing are performed in the loop of step c31 @(] (rri)(I). As a result, at this time, if the tiles in hand form a rising hand, the number of coins corresponding to the rising hand are paid out to the coin tray (64), and the ball (4
) can be launched. In addition, according to the above-mentioned embodiment, the switch for cutting off the tree and the switch for the poem monument can be used as a switch for cutting off the tree and a switch for poem monument (in some states, it is used as both, but the switch for cutting off the tree and the switch for poem monument can also be provided separately. Good.According to the present invention, a block cut-off switch is provided, and a block cut function is provided that enables the ball to be re-hit a predetermined number of times by turning on the block cut-off switch. If you want to do so, you can simply turn on the Tsumo-kiri switch, which eliminates the trouble of determining the Tsumo-tile, and allows you to re-hit the ball by Tsumo-kiri very easily. Since it is equipped with a re-hitting prevention function that makes it impossible to hit the ball again using the haiku switch after reaching Ota Reach, it is only possible to hit the ball again using Tsumokiri after reaching, so even those who are not familiar with mahjong can follow the mahjong rules. It is possible to reliably play mahjong ball according to the following. In addition, a poem monument switch is provided, and when the poem monument switch is turned on when the poem is full, the display of the hand tiles on the variable display section is erased, and the poem monument display function is also provided, which displays the pattern of the poem monument, so it is easy to read the poem monuments on the variable display section. Therefore, even those who are not familiar with mahjong can fully enjoy the game. Moreover, since the variable display section that displays hand tiles can be used as is for displaying poetry monuments, there is no need to provide a special variable display section for displaying poetry monuments.
Can be provided at low cost.
