Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a pachinko machine that displays on the front the number of prize balls to be ejected when winning a prize.

In the past, most pachinko machines ejected 15 balls when winning a prize.

However, the recent ones are 8, 10, 11, 12,
There are now 13 and 15 types of pachinko machines, and players have no idea which pachinko machine will eject how many.
Furthermore, even in a single pachinko machine, the number of prize balls ejected may vary depending on the winning opening.

This invention specifies the number of prize balls ejected for each pachinko machine, and its configuration will be explained below with reference to the illustrated embodiment.

FIG. 1 shows the upper half of a pachinko machine according to an embodiment of this invention. 1 is a game board, 2 is a front frame, and 3 is a display section that shows the number of prize balls to be ejected for each winning ball in this pachinko machine using a number 3a. In this case, the winning openings are the winning device 4 at the center of the game board 1, the four variable winning devices 5, and the winning pocket 4' above. No matter which one of them the ball hits, the number of prize balls emitted is 15.
Therefore, the display unit 3 displays all 15, that is, 15 in all the winning openings. If a ball hits the central winning device 4, 15 balls will be ejected, and if a ball hits the variable winning device 5, 10 balls will be ejected, then the display unit 3 will display a number 3a indicating 15 balls, as in the embodiment shown in FIG. ,
All you have to do is line up the number 3b indicating 10 pieces. As will be described later, a mechanism may be added to illuminate the number corresponding to the winning hole into which the batted ball entered from behind, or to flash the illumination.

Figures 3 and 4 show an embodiment of the numeral 3a of the display section of this invention and its illumination means. In this case, the number 3a is made of colored translucent resin, glass, etc.
It is fixed to the decorative member base plate 6 by adhesive or the like. The base plate 6 is fixed to the game board 1 with screws. The game board 1 has an illumination window 7 cut out at the rear of the number 3a, into which an illumination lamp 8 is inserted. The lamp 8 is supported by a holder 9 screwed to the rear surface of the game board 1.

The lamp 8 may remain lit at all times, but the fifth lamp
As shown in the diagram, connect the wiring to the motor 1 of the electric launcher.
0, and the light may be turned on only when the switch 11 is turned on by the firing operation dial.

Also, the lamp 8 is not turned on all the time during the game, but is turned on only when the detection device detects a winning ball.
It is also possible to leave it on all the time and have it flash repeatedly for a certain period of time when a prize is won. Furthermore, if there are multiple numbers 3a and 3b on the display as shown in FIG. When detected, the lamp on the number 3a side may be lit, and when the detection device of the variable prize winning device 5 is activated, the lamp on the number 3b side may be lit. Of course, lighting may be replaced with blinking.

As explained above with reference to a small number of embodiments, the main feature of this invention is that a pachinko machine is provided with a display section that clearly shows the number of prize balls ejected, and the shape and arrangement of the displayed numbers, as well as the lighting Other attachment mechanisms may vary according to the skill of the designer. Further, the display location may be any place on the front of the pachinko machine that is easy to see.

This invention had the important effect of allowing players to predict the number of prize balls that a Pachinko machine will emit by adding a simple display to the machine. In addition, since the numbers on the display are colored and made semi-transparent, the numbers themselves appear to emit light, giving the game board a unique color and decorative effect that has never been seen before. Furthermore, if the lamp illumination is changed when a ball is hit, the dynamic interest can be increased.
