Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a pachinko machine having a display unit that visually displays a panel image such as a painting or a photograph by combining the image of a cathode ray tube with the image of a panel.

When using cathode ray tube images as part of a game or for decoration, it is known that displaying still images for a long time can cause adverse effects such as local damage to the fluorescent screen.

For this reason, when it was desired to maintain a still image on the cathode ray tube, the pattern was moved minutely or the same pattern was projected intermittently to create the illusion of an afterimage.

Such means have the drawback that the electrical structure becomes complicated, and especially those with added colors are expensive.

Also, black and white cathode ray tubes lack color and lack interest.

The present invention was proposed in view of the above, and aims to provide a pachinko machine that is rich in decoration and allows for varied games by projecting a cathode ray tube image onto a stationary image on a panel. It is something.

The pachinko machine 1 has a game section 4 surrounded by a guide rail 3 on the front side of a game board 2, and the game section 4 is equipped with numerous obstacle nails ( (not shown), a plurality of winning holes 5, a display section 6, etc. are provided.

The display section 6 has an opening 8 of a light-blocking case 7 facing a hole drilled in the game board 2 from the back side of the board surface.
8 is covered with a transparent plate 9.

The case 7 shown in the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 is vertically long, and a half mirror 10 having the function of reflecting part of the light and simultaneously transmitting part of the light is provided at the upper part of the interior at an angle of about 45 degrees with respect to the horizontal direction. The half mirror 10 is positioned behind the transparent plate 9.

When viewed from the front of the pachinko machine, the panel 11 is sandwiched between the half mirror 10 so that the panel 11 containing a painting or photograph as a background and the image on the cathode ray tube 12 appear to overlap.
and cathode ray tubes 12 are provided at opposite positions.

For example, the panel 11 is provided facing forward on the part that can be seen through the half mirror 10, that is, the back side of the half mirror 10, and the cathode ray tube 12 is provided on the part that is reflected by the half mirror 10, which is the lower part of the half mirror 10 in FIG. The screen is provided almost horizontally facing the half mirror 10.

An illumination lamp 13 for illuminating the panel 11 is provided in a portion where the half mirror can be seen through, and a slot 14 for removing and replacing the panel 11 is provided in the case 7.

In the embodiment described above, when the display section 6 is viewed from the front of the pachinko machine, the image on the cathode ray tube 12 and the panel 11 are visually displayed as a combined image.

When the lamp 13 is off, only the image on the cathode ray tube 12 appears on the display section 6, and when the lamp 13 is on and the cathode ray tube 12 is off, the panel 11 appears on the display section 6.

Therefore, when the display section is used only as a decoration, it may be displayed by combining the cathode ray tube and the panel, or by displaying it alone.

When the cathode ray tube 12 is used for a special game in a pachinko game that is operated externally by a player, the structure is as follows.

When a ball fired by a player enters the special winning hole 5' in the gaming section 4 via the guide rail 3, the special winning hole 5'
A detector (not shown) installed in the player detects the special winning and continues to play the special game for a certain period of time or while a predetermined number of strokes are played.

In the special game, for example, an image stored in a storage device (not shown) provided on the back of the game board is projected on the cathode ray tube 12, and this image moves and changes appropriately in the background panel 11, increasing the interest of the game. Therefore, it is effective.

The image change on the cathode ray tube stops when the player operates an external operation switch 15 on the front of the pachinko machine.

As a result of the external operation, when the preset prize mode is displayed in the storage device, the variable winning device 5'' in the gaming section 4 (
A bonus is given to the player by changing the state of the player (commonly known as tulip) into a state that makes it easier to enter.

As explained below, according to the present invention, it is possible to optically synthesize a moving image projected by a cathode ray tube against a stationary panel painting, etc. in the background, thereby enhancing the decorative effect of a pachinko machine. .

Especially since the cathode ray tube is black and white, it is effective to make the panel rich in color.

In addition, as a special game, if the image on the cathode ray tube can be changed by the player's external operation, and a bonus is given as a result, the game will be rich in variety in addition to the traditional pachinko game, and it will increase the interest of the game. It can be increased dramatically.

Furthermore, according to the present invention, the paintings, photographs, etc. displayed as the background can be easily exchanged, so by exchanging the background pictures, it is possible to set up many types of games with one pachinko machine.

Therefore, one pachinko machine can be used for a long period of time, which is economical.

In addition, as shown in Fig. 3, in the present invention, the case 7 is made horizontally long, the positions of the cathode ray tube and the painting are reversed, the cathode ray tube is installed on the back side of the half mirror with the screen facing forward, and the painting is placed on the lower side reflected in the half mirror. It may be provided at any position.

This has the effect that the display section can be provided without interfering with the ball guide gutter provided on the back side of the game board.

Further, the present invention may be implemented without hindering the implementation of the present invention even if the illumination lamp is provided so as to illuminate from the back side in order to illuminate the painting on the panel relatively uniformly.

However, it is desirable that the panel in this case has transparent or semi-transparent light-transmitting properties.

Furthermore, it is convenient for installation, maintenance, and inspection if the game control circuit 16 that controls the cathode ray tube and the like is provided separately from the pachinko machine 1.
