Only when the setting indicator corresponding to the indicator light is set in advance, the number of Yakumono corresponding to the setting indicator is controlled to open. Therefore, the rotating blinking display device 40 is configured like a roulette wheel in which the display mode is electrically rotated.

A motor 48 is provided to rotationally drive the shaft 45, and a gear 47 is fixed to the shaft of the motor 48 in mesh with the gear 46 to transmit the rotational force of the motor 48 to the gear 46.

FIG. 6 is a detailed diagram of the winning ball opening mechanism and the winning ball device that controls the opening of the winning ball device based on the settings of the rotating flashing display device 40. In the figure, a winning ball device (yakumono; commonly known as chulip) 13
The pachinko machine has a ginger-shaped part (tulip petal) 131 to receive pachinko balls falling along the board, is fixed to a plate 132, and is arranged on the board of the pachinko game machine. This toothed portion 131 opens left and right depending on the winning ball.

33 are provided. An engagement pin 134 is fixed to this lever 133 so as to protrude laterally.
Then, in order to control the opening of the Yakumono 13 in accordance with the preset setting indicator corresponding to the lighting position of the light emitting diode when the rotating blinking indicator light 41 stops rotating blinking,
A Yakumono opening mechanism 60 is provided. This Yakumono opening mechanism 60 is constructed by fixing one end of an L-shaped engagement lever 63 to the tip of a solenoid shaft 62 that is attracted by the urging of a solenoid 61. When this solenoid 61 is energized, the engagement lever 6
3 and the engagement pin 134 engage with each other, and by pushing down the engagement pin 134 with the engagement lever 63, the wedge-shaped portion 131 of the yakumono 13 is opened.

Although the illustration shows the details of one set of the Yakumono 13 and the Yakumono opening mechanism 60, each of the Yakumono 13a to 13e and the Yakumono opening mechanisms 60a to 60e shown in FIG. They are expressed by adding symbols a to e at the end.

FIG. 7 is a control circuit diagram of the pachinko game machine 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Next, the operation when playing a game with the pachinko game machine 10 of this embodiment will be explained with reference to FIGS. 1 to 7.

The player operates the setting switches 19A, 19B, 1
9C, when the safe ball is hot, the rotary flashing display device 40 activates the Yakumono 13a.
- Set the number of 13e you want to open. For example, if you want to open a small number (2) of Yakumono (13a, 13b) with a relatively high probability (9/32), press the setting switch 19A, and open a large number (2) with a relatively low probability (2/32). If you want to open 5) Yakumono (13a to 13e), press the setting switch 19C, and with a medium probability (5/32), a medium number (3) of Yakumono (13a to 13c) will be created. If you want to open it, press the setting switch 19B. These setting switches 19A, 19B, and 19C are constructed so that when one switch is pressed, the other two switches are reset, in order to prohibit setting by a plurality of switches at the same time. In addition, when key-type setting switches 19A, 19B, and 19C are used as another example, in order to electrically remember which key switch was pressed, the key switch that was pressed when a certain key switch was pressed is The circuit may be configured to store the key switch and release the pressed memory state of the other key switches.

When any of the setting switches 19A, 19B, and 19C is pressed, a high level signal is applied to the input terminals of the setting number display control circuit 79 and determination circuit 80 corresponding to the pressed setting switch. For example, when the setting switch 19A is pressed, the setting number display control circuit 79 displays a plurality of numbers (nine in FIG. 4) indicating that the number "2" has been set.
When the setting switch 19B is pressed, a plurality of setting indicators 42B (five in FIG. 4) indicating that the number "3" has been set are lit, and the setting switch 19B is pressed. When 19C is pressed, a plurality of setting indicators 42C (two in FIG. 4) are lit to indicate that the number "5" has been set. In this way, the setting indicators corresponding to the identification information (numbers) set by the setting switches 19A, 19B, and 19C are lit and displayed.

Next, when the player inserts the pachinko ball purchased from the ball rental machine into the ball waiting gutter 15 and operates the ball handle 16 to hit the ball, the hit pachinko ball falls into one of the safe holes 12a to 12c. When winning a prize, the ball is guided to the safe ball processing mechanism 21 via the path 221 as a safe ball. Accordingly, the safe ball rides on the safe ball processing device 211 of the safe ball processing mechanism 21, and the safe ball processing device 211 is rotated. At this time, since the safe ball detection switch 212 is closed in accordance with the rotation of the safe ball processor 211, a high level safe ball detection output is derived. This safe ball detection output sets the flip-flop 71 which stores the fact that the safe ball has been hit, and also provides an operation command signal to the timer 78. The set output of flip-flop 71 is
It is given as one input of AND gate 72a. At this time, since the oscillation pulse of the pulse oscillation circuit 73 is applied to the other input of the AND gate 72a, the AND gate 72a provides the output pulse of the pulse oscillation circuit 73 to the ring counter 74 during the setting period of the flip-flop 71. This ring counter 74 sequentially increments the counted value by ``1'' every time a pulse input is given, and adds a number (1
~32) cyclically, and provides a coded signal representing the counted value to the decoder 75,
It is applied to the determination circuit 80.

The decoder 75 is connected to the rotating flashing indicator light 41.
The number of each light emitting diode included in (e.g. 3
2), and a high level signal is derived from each output terminal in time sequence based on the count counted by the ring counter 74. At each output terminal of this decoder 75, switching transistors 761, 762 to 76n (n
indicates the number of each light emitting diode included in the rotating flashing indicator light 41). The emitters of each of the switching transistors 761, 762 to 76n are grounded, and the collectors of the respective light emitting diodes 41 included in the rotating flashing indicator light 41 are connected to each other.
1,412 to 41n cathodes are connected. Power (+V) is supplied to the anode of each light emitting diode 411, 412 to 41n. Therefore, the decoder 75 derives a pulse to make the transistor 761 conductive when the ring counter 74 counts a value of "1", for example, and causes the light emitting diode 4 to conduct.
11 is made to emit light, and when the count value "2" is counted, a pulse that makes the transistor 762 conductive is derived to cause the light emitting diode 412 to be made to emit light, and when the count value "n" is counted in the same way, the transistor 7
A pulse for making the light emitting diode 41n conductive is derived to cause the light emitting diode 41n to emit light. Each of these light emitting diodes 411, 412 to 41n is arranged in a ring as shown in FIG.
Based on the count value of 4, the light emitting diode 411,4
When 12 to 41n are displayed blinking in sequence, the light-emitting display portion appears to be a ring-shaped light-emitting display to the player, thereby rotating the display like a roulette wheel. At this time, the light emitting diodes 411, 4
The display interval of each of the blinking tables 12 to 41n is selected so that the blinking state can be visually recognized by the player and is difficult to stop at the desired position even if the stop switch 19S is pressed. The period is selected depending on the oscillation frequency of the pulse oscillation circuit 73.

Further, the output of the AND gate 72a is given to a rotating sound generator 77, which is an example of sound effect generating means.
The rotation sound generator 77 is a hit sound generator 86 which will be described later.
Together, the present invention constitutes an embodiment of the sound effect generating means set forth in the claims. This rotating sound generator 77 generates an intermittent sound in response to the pulse output of the AND gate 72a.
In other words, the light emitting diode 41 rotates and blinks in synchronization with the pulse output of the AND gate 72a.
In order to more effectively produce the rotating blinking state of 1,412 to 41n, intermittent sound effects are generated in synchronization with the rotating blinking of the light emitting diode.
More preferably, a rotation indicator light may be provided in parallel with the rotation sound generator 77 to indicate that rotation sound is being output from the rotation sound generator 77.

As described above, when each light emitting diode of the rotating blinking indicator light 41 is rotating and blinking in response to the safe ball, the player can press the setting switch 19.
In order to stop the rotating flashing display at the position of the light emitting diode corresponding to the number set in either A, 19B, or 19C, the stop switch 19S is pressed at an appropriate timing. Accordingly, a high level signal is applied as a reset input to the flip-flop 71 via the stop switch 19S and the OR gate 720 to reset the flip-flop 71, and is also applied to the judgment circuit 80 as a judgment command signal, which further activates the safe ball processor 211. It is given as an energizing signal to the solenoid 213 to restore the state. In response to this reset of flip-flop 71, AND gate 72a is disabled to prohibit pulse input from being applied to ring counter 74. Therefore, the ring counter 74
continuously supplies the coded signal of the count value that has been counted up to that point to the decoder 75 and the determination circuit 80. Therefore, the decoder 75 causes the light emitting diodes included in the rotary blinking indicator light 41 corresponding to the count value of the ring counter 74 to be lit continuously.

On the other hand, the determination circuit 80, which operates in response to the determination command signal, identifies the number corresponding to the light emitting diode lit on the rotating flashing indicator 41 based on the count value of the ring counter 74, and selects the setting switch. It is determined whether the value matches the setting value set in any one of 19A, 19B, and 19C. For example, the determination circuit 80
When A is pressed, the setting display 42A
If any of the light emitting diodes of the rotary blinking indicator light 41 corresponding to the above is lit, a high level signal is given to the monostable multi-channel 81A. Accordingly, the monostable multi 81A derives a high level signal for a certain period of time, and outputs a high level signal to the transistor 8 via the OR gate 82a.
3a is made conductive, and at the same time, transistor 83b is made conductive via OR gate 82b. As a result, the solenoids 61a and 61b are energized and the opening of the hinged portions of the yakumono 13a and 13b is controlled. In this way, when setting the number "2" with the setting switch 19A, the stop position when the rotating blinking display of the light emitting diode included in the rotating blinking indicator light 41 is stopped corresponds to the setting display 42A. If the position is such that the opening of the two Yakumono 13a and 13b is controlled. For this reason,
The winning conditions for pachinko balls hit by players are improved.

Further, when the setting switch 19B is set, if the light emitting diode of the rotating flashing indicator 41 has stopped at the position corresponding to the setting indicator 42b, the determination circuit 80 gives a high level signal to the monostable multi 81B. . Depending on the monostable multi-81B
is a high level signal for a certain period of time and is passed through the OR gate 82.
Transistor 83 via c, 82d, 82e
c, 83d, and 83e are made conductive, and the solenoids 61c, 61d, and 61e are energized and controlled.
Therefore, the opening of each of the hinged portions of the yakumono 13c, 13d, and 13e is controlled to open. In this way, when setting the number "3" with the setting switch 19B, the setting display 4 that is displaying the setting number
Any one of the rotating flashing indicator lights 41 corresponding to 2B
If the display stops at the position of one light emitting diode, three
The production of Yakumono is controlled.

In the same way, set the setting switch 19C to the number "5".
When set, when a certain light emitting diode of the rotating blinking indicator light 41 is controlled to stop at a position corresponding to the setting indicator 42c, the determination circuit 80 gives a high level signal to the monostable multi-channel 81C. Accordingly, the monostable multi 81C conducts each of the transistors 83a to 83e through each of the OR gates 82a to 82e, and the solenoids 61a to 61e.
conduction control for each. Accordingly, Yakumono 1
The opening of each of the hinged portions 3a to 13e is controlled to open. In this way, the opening of five Yakumono is controlled.

Further, each output of the monostable multi 81A to 81C is given to a timer 85 via an OR gate 84, and the hit indicator light 43 is turned on for a certain period of time determined by the timer 85, and the hit sound generator 86 to generate a hit sound (for example, a continuous sound for a certain period of time). This hit sound generator 86
As mentioned above, together with the rotating sound generator 77, this constitutes one embodiment of the sound effect generating means. When the rotating blinking display state of the rotating blinking indicator light 41 is stopped, if the position of the displayed light emitting diode corresponds to the preset setting display, it indicates a win and the effect In order to create a realistic effect, a hit sound is generated by a hit sound generator 86, and in order to further enhance the effect, a hit indicator light 43 is illuminated. Therefore, the player can know that a predetermined value (in this embodiment, a certain number of yakumono will be created) has been given, and the atmosphere of the game is excited, so that the player can become absorbed in the game. . It can be made into an interesting gaming machine.

Note that even though the rotating flashing indicator light is rotating and blinking, if the player does not operate the stop switch 19S, the rotating blinking display state will continue at any time, and from then on, the safe holes 12a, 12b, 12c will remain in the rotating and blinking display state. Even if a pachinko ball wins a prize, it does not perform a predetermined action. Therefore, if the stop switch 19S is not operated within a certain period of time, it is desirable to stop the rotating blinking display state. Therefore, preferably, as described below, when the stop switch 19S is not operated within a certain period of time, the rotating blinking display state is controlled to be stopped. In other words, safe ball detection switch 2
12 detects the safe ball, and when a predetermined period of time has elapsed, the timer 78 derives a time-up output, resets the flip-flop 71 via the OR gate 72o, and judges it as a judgment command signal. circuit 8
Give to 0. Accordingly, the rotating blinking display state of the rotating blinking indicator light 41 is controlled to stop in the same way as the operation when the stop command switch 19S is pressed, and is set in advance according to the position of the light emitting diode currently displayed. The number of openings of the Yakumono is controlled based on the set value.

As described above, according to this embodiment, the rotating blinking indicator light 41 is caused to rotate and blink in response to the safe bulb, and the stop position of the rotating blinking indicator light when the stop operation is performed represents a preset number. If the pachinko game machine is compatible with a setting display, a pachinko game machine can be obtained that can control the number of games played based on the setting value. For this reason, the entertainment for the players is doubled. In addition, since the number of Yakumono created is controlled, the winning conditions are improved, the number of prize balls that can be won increases, and the service can be improved.

In addition, in the above explanation, a number is set as an example of identification information, a number is displayed according to the set number, and when a certain indicator light of the rotating flashing indicator light is stopped at that display position, the number of Yakumono is displayed. Although the opening is controlled, it goes without saying that the length of the opening time of a particular Yakumono may be controlled based on a set value. It goes without saying that the identification information may be other symbols instead of numbers.

FIGS. 8A and 8B are illustrative views of a pachinko game machine according to another embodiment of the present invention. In particular, for example, FIG. 8A is a pachinko game machine 10' according to another embodiment.
FIG. 8B is a cross-sectional view (corresponding to FIG. 5 described above) showing another example of the rotary blinking display device. In this embodiment, the center handle 44 of the rotating blinking display device 40 is configured to rotate in response to the falling of pachinko balls without using a motor to drive the center handle 44 to rotate. Specifically, an impeller 49 is fixed to the other end of a shaft 45 to which a center hurdle 44 is fixed to one end, and the center handle 44 is rotationally driven by rotation of the impeller. Moreover, the safe hole 12a,
The path 225 is configured so that when winning pachinko balls are dropped one by one by the winning processing mechanism 21 into 12b and 12c, the dropped safe balls fall through the impeller on the back side of the rotating flashing display device. . Thereby, when a safe ball that has won a prize in any of the safe holes falls along the path 225, the center handle 44 is rotated by rotationally driving the impeller 49 by the weight of the pachinko ball.

FIG. 9 is a circuit diagram showing another example of the portion related to the stop switch 19S in the control circuit shown in FIG. 7 described above. In the embodiment shown in FIG.
Since the time until the rotational blinking display stops is regular, the pressing timing of the stop switch 19S is adjusted so that the light emitting diodes at the positions corresponding to the numbers set by the setting switches 19A, 19B, and 19C are lit up. This allows the light emitting diode of the rotating blinking indicator light 41 to be easily positioned at a desired position. Therefore, in this embodiment, in order to prevent the stop position of the blinking display of the rotary blinking indicator light from being easily manipulated to a desired stop position, it is configured as follows. That is, in response to the press of the stop command switch 19S, a high level signal is given to the monostable multi 91 and also to the ring counter 92. This monostable multi 91
derives a high level signal for a certain period of time from when the stop switch 19S is pressed, and AND gates 931 and 93
Activate 2,933. At this time, the ring counter 92 cyclically changes its count value every time the stop command switch 19S is pressed.
A high-level output signal is derived according to the counted value. Delay circuits 941, 942, 943 having different delay times are connected to the output terminals of each count value of this ring counter, and the output of each delay circuit 941, 942, 943 is connected to the other side of each AND gate 931, 932, 933. is given as input. For this reason,
Delay circuits 941, 942, 94 selected based on the count value of the ring counter 92, which changes the count value cyclically every time the stop switch 19S is pressed.
3 are different and correspond from the selected delay circuit.
The OR shown in FIG.
The flip-flop 71 is set through the gate 72o. With this configuration, the delay circuit 94 is selected based on the numerical value cyclically counted by the ring counter 92.
1,942,943 are determined and the delay times of the delay circuits are different, so it is easy for the player to change the stop display position of the rotating flashing indicator light by appropriately changing the pressing timing of the stop switch 19S. It is relatively difficult to choose. It should be noted that various circuits can be considered that make it difficult to easily match the stop display position of the rotary blinking indicator light with the desired set value even if the pressing timing of the stop switch 19S is adjusted as in this embodiment. Only one example is shown here.

As described above, according to the present invention, the rotary blinking display device is provided, and the rotating blinking display device is not only used to simply hit a pachinko ball, but also set desired identification information and stop the rotating blinking display device so as to match the set value. By controlling the display position, the number of prize balls that can be won can be varied, so a pachinko game machine that can further increase the interest of pachinko games and improve the service to players can be obtained. .
