Description

  The present invention relates to a movable body used in a gaming machine such as a pachinko machine or a slot machine.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in gaming machines such as game machines, those that generate an image that can be seen from a given viewpoint in an object space that is a virtual three-dimensional space, that is, those that can experience so-called virtual reality are popular. As this type of game machine, there is a fighter game in which a fighter aircraft is operated to attack enemy aircraft.

  In the above fighter game, it is not easy to determine the fighter around the aircraft from only the image displayed on one screen. Accordingly, there has been proposed an apparatus that displays a radar image simulating a radar on a part of a visual field image in a virtual three-dimensional space (see, for example, Patent Document 1). This radar image is preferable because it increases the reality when displayed three-dimensionally.

JP 2001-229405 A

  However, no matter how three-dimensionally it is displayed on the image, it cannot be denied that there is a lack of reality and a lack of force when compared with a three-dimensional object. In addition, in a ball game machine such as a pachinko machine, there has been a conventional one that displays an image simulating a radar and has the same problem. In other words, because of lack of reality and power, it was impossible to improve the interest of the player.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a three-dimensional and powerful movable body for a gaming machine by using a three-dimensional object. Another object of the present invention is to provide a movable body for a gaming machine that has a simple configuration, can be easily downsized, and is inexpensive.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the invention according to claim 1 is for a gaming machine attached to a frame-shaped center accessory arranged so as to surround the symbol display device at a substantially central portion of the game area of the game board. In the movable body, a plurality of first light emitters provided on the surface side of the circuit board, and a second light emitter having a portion that turns around the substantially central portion of the circuit board in front of the first light emitter. And the second light emitter is inserted through the circuit board and a light source that is fixed to a substrate provided behind the first light emitter and on the back side of the circuit board. A cylindrical portion that transmits light emitted from a source and a radial extension of a tip portion of the cylindrical portion. The cylindrical portion receives light transmitted through the cylindrical portion, emits light, and is disposed in front of the first light emitter. And a light transmission member having a rod-shaped needle portion that turns and A first shielding plate is provided on the side that hides the needle portion when the needle portion is not emitting light and is colored to the extent that light from the needle portion can be transmitted when the needle portion emits light, Between the substrate and the needle portion, the plurality of first light emitters are concealed when the plurality of first light emitters are not emitting light, and the plurality of first light emitters emit light when the plurality of first light emitters emit light. The gist of the movable body for a gaming machine is provided with a second shielding plate that is colored to such an extent that light from the first light emitter can be transmitted .

Therefore, according to the first aspect of the present invention, by rotating at least one of the plurality of first light emitters that are real objects and the second light emitter that is also real objects, the three-dimensional and powerful It is possible to perform an effect that mimics a radar with no. In addition, according to the present invention basically composed of the first light emitter and the second light emitter, unlike the case where, for example, a real radar itself is used, the structure is simple and the size can be easily reduced. Moreover, it can be an inexpensive movable body for a gaming machine.
Furthermore, since the second light emitter and the first light emitter are concealed by the first shielding plate when no light is emitted, it is possible to prevent a decrease in reality due to the appearance of extra objects when no light is emitted. In addition, if a place where the inside is not normally visible suddenly emits light or further turns and emits light, the player can feel unexpectedness and can improve interest. Further, when the second light emitter emits light, the first light emitter may appear to be illuminated by the light of the second light emitter located in front of the second light emitter. The decrease of However, in the present invention, it is possible to prevent the first light emitter from being visualized by the second shielding plate when the second light emitter emits light.

Movable member of the present invention is installed on a game board, in particular is attached to the center won game is an existing structure that is on the game board. With such a structure, an increase in the number of parts can be avoided, and complication in the game board surface can be avoided accordingly. Further, since the gaming machine is installed on the game board surface, there is an advantage that it is easy for the player to see the state of change of the movable body during the game.

For example, the second light emitting body includes a light emitting source, Ru is constituted by a light transmitting member for transmitting light emitted in the light emitting source. In this case, while disposed by fixing the light-emitting source, it arranged only light transmitting member pivotally. According to this structure, since an electricity supply part becomes a fixed side, it becomes easy to comprise.

In addition, the arrangement of the plurality of first light emitters is not particularly limited, but is preferably arranged irregularly. This is because the reality increases when the plurality of first light emitters to be lit are regarded as a plurality of objects (for example, fish school) approaching. Further, the second light emitter is preferably a bar-shaped indicator needle. This is because if configured in this way, it is possible to produce an effect imitating a more three-dimensional and powerful radar.
The first shielding plate and the second shielding plate are preferably colored in a dark color such as gray. If it does in this way, while the 2nd light-emitting body in a non-light-emission state can be hidden more reliably by the 1st shielding board, the 1st light-emitting body is illuminated by the light of the 2nd light emitting body by the 2nd shielding board. This is because it can be further prevented from being seen.
According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the first aspect, the dish member attached to the front surface of the circuit board is provided with a cylindrical portion protruding forward, and the cylindrical portion is inserted into the cylindrical portion. Is the gist.
A third aspect of the present invention is the convex lens according to the first or second aspect, wherein the annular decorative cover having a through hole and a convex lens shape that is disposed on the front side of the second light emitter and is exposed through the through hole. And a plurality of third light emitters arranged in a scale at the outer peripheral portion of the light transmitting portion, and a plurality of light emitting portion insertion holes are provided in the outer peripheral portion of the decorative cover. The light emitting portions that are arranged to be inserted into the light emitting portion insertion holes and emit light by the light from the third light emitters are inserted into the light emitting portion insertion holes. The main point is that it is located on the rear side.
Therefore, according to the invention described in claim 3, since the second light emitters appear to indicate a plurality of third light emitters arranged in a scale, it is possible to produce an effect that simulates a more powerful radar. . In addition, since the light transmission part has a convex lens shape, it is possible to produce an effect simulating a three-dimensional and powerful radar.
Here, the number of the third light emitters may be two or more, but it is desirable that the number of the third light emitters be three or more in order to make it visible on the radar scale. In addition, when providing a some 3rd light-emitting body in the outer peripheral part of a light transmissive part, it is preferable to arrange | position so that each 3rd light-emitting body may make a substantially equal angle on the basis of the center of a light transmissive part.
Moreover, the front end surface of each light emission part is located in the back rather than the front surface of the outer peripheral part of a protection member. When comprised in this way, it can prevent that a 3rd light-emitting body reflects in a light transmissive part, and irregular reflection occurs in a light transmissive part.
The light transmitting portion of the protective member is preferably formed of, for example, resin or glass, and is particularly preferably formed of a light transmitting resin that is not easily broken.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in any one of the first to third aspects, the main control board that controls the entire gaming machine and outputs a control command as a predetermined control signal; Based on the control signal, the plurality of first light emitters and the second light emitter are turned on, and a light emission control board for controlling a light emission mode of the plurality of first light emitters is provided, The ROM stores light emission effect patterns for a plurality of types of light emission effects, and stores one light emission effect pattern in association with one execution pattern. The light emission control board is executed from the main control board. In response to the input of the control command indicating, a light emission effect pattern corresponding to the input execution pattern is selected, and based on the selected light emission effect pattern By executing a predetermined emission control, as its gist in that the changeable respective brightness of the plurality of first light emitter.

Therefore, according to the fourth aspect of the present invention, the first light emitters can be changed by changing the brightness of the first light emitters without shifting the first light emitters in the front-rear direction, for example. Perspective can be given between each other. By imparting this perspective, it is possible to produce an effect that mimics a three-dimensional and powerful radar.

  As a method of changing the brightness of the first light emitter, a method of changing the ratio of the lighting time per unit time of each of the plurality of first light emitters, or the constant lighting time of each of the plurality of first light emitters. A method of changing the turn-off interval can be considered. However, when a light emitting diode is used as the first light emitter, the former is preferable. This is because if the latter, the light emitting diode may appear to blink.

The gist of a fifth aspect of the present invention is that, in any one of the first to fourth aspects, the plurality of first light emitters are arranged shifted in the front-rear direction.

Therefore, according to the fifth aspect of the invention, it is possible to easily give a sense of perspective between the first light emitters without changing the brightness of each of the first light emitters. By imparting this perspective, it is possible to produce an effect that mimics a three-dimensional and powerful radar. In addition, according to this structure, it is not necessary to perform the brightness control of a 1st light-emitting body, and a control circuit can be simplified.
According to a sixth aspect of the present invention, there is provided a movable body for a gaming machine that is attached to a frame-shaped center accessory arranged so as to surround the symbol display device at a substantially central portion of a game area of the game board.

A second light emitter having a portion, and the second light emitter is fixed to an immovable substrate fixed to the base on the back side of the circuit board behind the first light emitter. A light source that is inserted through the circuit board and transmits light emitted from the light source, and light that has been formed to extend in the radial direction of the distal end portion of the cylindrical portion and has been transmitted through the cylindrical portion A light transmission member having a bar-like needle portion that emits light and swivels in front of the first light emitter, and a driving source attached to the back side of the base on the back side of the circuit board; When driving means comprising a driving mechanism for transmitting the force of the driving source to the cylindrical portion to turn the needle portion is provided, and the needle portion is not emitting light on the front side of the needle portion in the case A first shielding plate is provided that hides the needle portion and is colored to such an extent that the needle portion can transmit light when the needle portion emits light, and is provided between the circuit board and the needle portion in the case. The plurality of first light emitters when the plurality of first light emitters are not emitting light. And a second shielding plate that is colored to such an extent that the light of the plurality of first light emitters can be transmitted when the plurality of first light emitters emit light. Is the gist.

In addition , it has a several light-emitting body and the rotary body which turns in front of the said light-emitting body, the light from the said light-emitting body is reflected in the opposite direction to the rotation direction of the said rotary body, and is reflected ahead. It may be a movable body for a gaming machine, characterized in that a reflecting means is provided on the rotating body.

Therefore, according to this configuration, it is possible to produce an effect imitating a three-dimensional and powerful radar by turning a rotating body that is an actual object. Further, since the light from the light emitter can be reflected in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the rotating body by the reflecting means, the rotating body can be illuminated so as to draw a tail. Therefore, it is possible to perform an effect imitating a more three-dimensional and powerful radar. Furthermore, since the light reflected in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the rotating body is reflected forward by the reflecting means, the rotating body itself can appear to emit light. Therefore, it is not necessary to provide a light emitter for causing the rotating body to emit light separately from other light emitters, so that the movable body can be downsized.

  Further, according to the present invention, unlike a case where, for example, a real radar itself is used, it is possible to provide a movable body for a gaming machine that has a simple configuration, is easily downsized, and is inexpensive. .

  The light emitter can be arbitrarily selected from light emitters that convert electrical energy into light energy. Here, examples of the light emitter include a small light bulb (lamp), a fluorescent tube, an electroluminescence element (EL element), and a light emitting diode (LED). However, the light emitter is preferably small and has low power consumption. Therefore, a light emitting diode or the like should be selected as the light emitter.

  Further, the arrangement of the plurality of light emitters is not particularly limited, but is preferably arranged irregularly. This is because the reality increases when the plurality of light-emitting bodies that are lit are regarded as a plurality of objects (for example, fish schools) that approach each other.

  Here, specific examples of the reflecting means include those made of a metal material such as iron or aluminum. In addition, from the viewpoint of weight reduction and cost reduction, the inner surface of a rotating body formed of a resin material is coated with a metallic coating, or the inner surface of a rotating body formed of a resin material is plated. Is preferred.

  In addition, you may comprise so that the light from a light-emitting body may permeate | transmit forward by forming a rotary body with a transparent resin material. If it does in this way, it can prevent that the light from the light-emitting body regarded as a some target object (for example, fish school) is interrupted by the rotary body. Further, in this case, by adjusting the inclination angle (the degree of bending forward) of the blade portion constituting the reflecting means, the light from the light emitting body used to make the rotating body shine can be reflected forward. preferable.

  As described above in detail, according to the first to sixth aspects of the present invention, a three-dimensional and powerful movable body for a gaming machine can be provided by using a three-dimensional object. In addition, it is possible to provide a movable body for a gaming machine that has a simple configuration and can be easily downsized, and that is inexpensive.

A shaft portion insertion hole 41 a through which the shaft portion 28 is inserted is provided at the center of the circuit board 41. A female connector 44 is provided on the back surface 43 of the circuit board 41. The female connector 44 is fitted with a male connector (not shown) provided at the end of a wiring cable connected to another board. On the other hand, a plurality of fish light emitting diodes 45 (first light emitters) are fixed to the surface 42 of the circuit board 41 by soldering.

  The light emission color of the plurality of light emitting diodes 45 for fish school may be other colors such as red, blue, and white, but is green in this embodiment. The plurality of fish light emitting diodes 45 are disposed around the shaft insertion hole 41 a on the circuit board 41. The distances from the center of the shaft portion insertion hole 41a to the center of each light emitting diode 45 for fish school are different from each other. That is, the plurality of fish light emitting diodes 45 are arranged irregularly. Accordingly, when the plurality of light-emitting diodes 45 for lighting the fish are regarded as a plurality of objects approaching without regularity (in this embodiment, the fish school detected by the fish finder), the reality is further increased. It becomes like this.

  As shown in FIG. 3, a dish member 46 whose front side is opened is attached to the front surface of the circuit board 41. A cylindrical portion 48 through which the shaft portion 28 is inserted and a plurality of electrical component insertion holes 49 are provided on the bottom portion 47 of the dish member 46.

In this state, the plate member 46 is screwed to the motor base 23 together with the circuit board 41.

  As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the movable body 21 includes an indicator needle 51 as a second light emitter. The indicator needle 51 includes four needle light emitting diodes 52 as light emission sources and a light transmission member 53. The four light emitting diodes 52 for needles are arranged on a substrate 54 provided on the back surface 43 side of the circuit substrate 41. The substrate 54 is fixed to the motor base 23 with screws (not shown).

The four needle light emitting diodes 52 are in a positional relationship of 90 ° with respect to the shaft portion 28. The light emission colors of the four light emitting diodes for needles 52 may be other colors such as red, blue, and white, but in this embodiment, they are the same green as the light emitting diodes 45 for the fish school.

  The light transmission member 53 is disposed on the front surface 42 side of the circuit board 41, that is, in front of the plurality of fish light emitting diodes 45. That is, the light transmission member 53 is disposed at a location different from the four needle light emitting diodes 52. The light transmission member 53 includes a cylindrical portion 56 through which the tip end portion of the shaft portion 28 is inserted, and a needle portion 57 having a rod shape. The front side of the cylindrical portion 56 is covered with a cap 58 that prevents light from leaking from the cylindrical portion 56. Further, an engagement groove 59 that engages with an engagement projection 29a formed at the center of the spur gear 29 is provided at the base end portion of the cylindrical portion 56 (see FIG. 3). Therefore, when the engagement protrusion 29 a is engaged with the engagement groove 59, the light transmission member 53 turns with the spur gear 29 by the drive of the motor 25.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the needle portion 57 is formed to extend from a connection portion 60 provided on the outer peripheral surface of the distal end portion of the cylindrical portion 56. The length of the needle portion 57 is slightly shorter than the radius of the circuit board 41. The needle portion 57 has the same width from the proximal end to the distal end, but the plate thickness gradually decreases toward the distal end. The needle portion 57 is configured to pivot about the approximate center (the shaft portion 28) of the circuit board 41 in front of the plurality of light emitting diodes 45 for the fish school.

  The light transmission member 53 is made of a light-transmitting synthetic resin, and the entire light transmission member 53 serves as an optical path for guiding light from the four needle light-emitting diodes 52. The light transmission member 53 transmits light emitted from the needle light emitting diode 52 from the connection portion 60 to the distal end side of the needle portion 57. The needle portion 57 is configured to prevent light transmitted through the light transmission member 53 from leaking to the circuit board 41 side by a colored layer formed on the back surface side. Thereby, the light transmitted through the light transmitting member 53 is irradiated forward from the front side of the needle portion 57. The front side of the needle portion 57 is configured to emit light in the same green as the needle light emitting diode 52. Therefore, when the light transmitting member 53 that turns on and turns is regarded as a needle that turns on the screen of the fish finder, the reality increases.

  As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, an inner smoke lens 61 as a second shielding plate is provided between the plurality of fish light emitting diodes 45 and the needle portion 57. The inner smoke lens 61 is colored gray and has a light transmissive property enough to transmit light from the light emitting diode 45 for fish school.

A pair of engagement recesses 62 a that can be engaged with a pair of engagement protrusions 48 a protruding from the tip of the cylindrical portion 48 are provided at the peripheral edge of the engagement hole 62. Therefore, when the engagement convex part 48a is engaged with the engagement concave part 62a, the space | interval of the back surface of the inner smoke lens 61 and the front-end | tip of each light emitting diode 45 for fish is kept constant.

  As shown in FIGS. 2, 3, and 5, the movable body 21 includes a lens cover unit 71 that is a protective member. An outer smoke lens 81 as a first shielding plate is provided between the lens cover unit 71 and the needle portion 57. That is, the inner smoke lens 61 and the outer smoke lens 81 are arranged in a state of being separated from each other. The outer smoke lens 81 is colored in gray and has a light transmissive property capable of transmitting the light from the needle portion 57 and the light of the light emitting diode 45 for fish that has passed through the inner smoke lens 61. . In addition, a plurality of cutout portions 82 are provided on the outer peripheral portion of the outer smoke lens 81 to engage the protrusions 32 provided on the front surface side of the case 30. Therefore, the outer smoke lens 81 is attached to the front surface of the case 30 by engaging the protrusions 32 with the respective notches 82. Further, a seal S1 (see FIG. 6A) having a combination of a plurality of concentric circles and a cross-shaped line is attached to the front side of the outer smoke lens 81. At the center of the seal S1, a hole (not shown) is provided to avoid the protrusion 81a provided at the center of the outer smoke lens 81. As a result, the reality increases when the outer smoke lens 81 is regarded as a screen of a fish finder. Note that, as shown in FIG. 6B, the seal S1 may have a lattice pattern drawn thereon. Further, the seal S1 is not essential and may be omitted.

  As shown in FIGS. 2, 3, and 5, a lens cover unit 71 is disposed on the front side of the outer smoke lens 81. The lens cover unit 71 is basically configured by overlapping two members (a lens 72 and a cover portion 73). The lens 72 is a resin molded product made of a light-transmitting resin, and has a convex lens-shaped light transmitting portion 72a at the center. The light transmitting portion 72a may have a flat surface.

  The cover portion 73 is disposed on the front side of the lens 72 so as to cover the outer peripheral portion of the lens 72. The cover portion 73 is configured by attaching the substrate portion 74 and the photoconductive member 75 to the back side of the decorative cover 76. The substrate portion 74 has an annular shape, and eight scale light emitting diodes 77 as third light emitters are mounted on the surface thereof. The scale light emitting diodes 77 are arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction of the substrate portion 74. The photoconductive member 75 has an annular shape and is a resin molded product made of a light-transmitting resin colored in red. Therefore, the photoconductive member 75 emits red light by the light from the scale light emitting diode 77. Eight light emitting portions 75 a are projected from the front surface of the photoconductive member 75. The light emitting portions 75 a are arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction of the photoconductive member 75. As shown in FIG. 2, when the photoconductive member 75 is attached to the surface of the substrate portion 74, the light emitting portions 75 a are respectively disposed on the front side of the scale light emitting diodes 77, and centered on the light transmitting portion 72 a. As a reference, they are arranged so as to form substantially the same angle. In addition, the height of the tip of each light emitting portion 75 a is gradually lowered toward the inside of the photoconductive member 75.

  As shown in FIGS. 2, 3, and 5, the decorative cover 76 is an annular resin molded product having a through hole 76a, and the entire surface thereof is plated. Therefore, in the state after the completion of assembly shown in FIG. 2, the light transmitting portion 72a of the lens 72 is exposed through the through hole 76a. The depth of the through hole 76a is the same as the protruding height at the outer peripheral edge of the light transmitting portion 72a. Further, the outer peripheral portion 78 of the decorative cover 76 gradually protrudes forward from the opening edge of the through hole 76a toward the outer peripheral side of the outer peripheral portion 78. Eight light emitting portion insertion holes 78 a are provided in the outer peripheral portion 78 of the decorative cover 76. The light emitting portion insertion holes 78 a are arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction of the decorative cover 76. The front end surface of the light emitting part 75 a inserted into each light emitting part insertion hole 78 a is located behind the front surface of the outer peripheral part 78 of the lens cover unit 71. In addition, three protrusions 79 are provided between the light emitting portion insertion holes 78 a adjacent to each other at the outer peripheral portion 78 of the decorative cover 76. Therefore, the eight light emitting portions 75 a are arranged in a scale on the outer peripheral portion 78 of the decorative cover 76 together with the plurality of protrusions 79. This increases the reality when the eight light emitting portions 75a and the plurality of protrusions 79 are regarded as scales around the screen of the fish finder.

The main control board 91 is connected to a symbol control board 92, an audio control board 93, and a light emission control board 94. A control signal output from the main control board 91 is input to the symbol control board 92, the sound control board 93, and the light emission control board 94.

  The main control board 91 includes a main CPU 91a, and a ROM 91b and a RAM 91c are connected to the main CPU 91a. The ROM 91b stores a control program for controlling the pachinko machine and the like. The RAM 91c temporarily stores various information necessary for operation of the pachinko machine.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the symbol control board 92 includes a sub CPU 92a, and a ROM 92b and a RAM 92c are connected to the sub CPU 92a. The ROM 92b stores a plurality of types of display execution data for display effects and various types of image information (design image information, background images, character images, appearance character images, etc.). The RAM 92c temporarily stores (sets) various information that can be appropriately rewritten during the operation of the pachinko machine. The display execution data for display effects is information for the sub CPU 92a to control the display content (symbol variation, character action, etc.) of the liquid crystal symbol display device 15. Further, when a control command is input from the main CPU 91a, the sub CPU 92a performs control for driving the motor 25. In this embodiment, control for driving the motor 25 by the symbol control board 92 is performed. However, control for driving the motor 25 by the main control board 91, the sound control board 93 or the light emission control board 94 is performed. You may make it perform.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the audio control board 93 includes a sub CPU 93a, and a ROM 93b and a RAM 93c are connected to the sub CPU 93a. The ROM 93b stores various control programs, a plurality of types of effect execution data for sound effects, and the like.

The production execution data for audio production is information for the sub CPU 93a to control the audio output mode (sound effect type, audio language type, audio output time, etc.) of the speaker 95.

  Then, when a control command is input from the main CPU 91a, the sub CPU 93a executes voice control based on the corresponding voice effect production execution data. More specifically, the audio control board 93 converts production execution data for audio production into an audio signal and outputs it to the speaker 95. As a result, the speaker 95 outputs sound based on the sound signal.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the light emission control board 94 turns on the four needle light emitting diodes 52 and the eight scale light emitting diodes 77 based on a control signal from the main control board 91, and It has a role which controls the light emission mode of these light emitting diodes 45 for fish schools. The light emission control board 94 of this embodiment includes a sub CPU 94a, a ROM 94b, a RAM 94c, and an interface unit 96. The ROM 94b of the light emission control board 94 stores effect execution data (light emission effect patterns) for a plurality of types of light emission effects. The RAM 94c temporarily stores (sets) various information that can be appropriately rewritten during the operation of the pachinko machine. The ROM 94b stores one emission effect pattern in association with one execution pattern.

  When a control command indicating an execution pattern is input from the main CPU 91a, the sub CPU 94a selects a light emission effect pattern corresponding to the execution command, and executes predetermined light emission control based on the selected light emission effect pattern. ing. More specifically, the light emission control board 94 converts the data of the selected light emission effect pattern into a light emission control signal, and outputs the light emission control signal to the plurality of fish light emitting diodes 45 via the interface unit 96. As a result, the plurality of fish light emitting diodes 45 are turned on (flashing) or turned off based on the light emission control signal.

  Here, the mode of light emission control in the present embodiment will be described with a specific example.

  For example, when there are 16 fish light-emitting diodes 45, the brightness of each of the 16 fish light-emitting diodes 45 can be changed by changing the lighting time per unit time of the fish light-emitting diode 45. ing. In the present embodiment, the brightness of the light emitting diode 45 for fish school is changed by gradation control.

  As shown in FIG. 8A, the data indicating the positional relationship of the 16 fish light-emitting diodes 45 to be controlled by gradation control is 4 rows (com1 to com4) × 4 columns (seg1 to seg4). And is stored in the ROM 94b. That is, 16 squares are shown in the data, and each square corresponds to 16 light emitting diodes 45 for fish school.

  Each of the light emitting diodes 45 for the school of fish is turned on when the levels of the corresponding seg and com signals are both high (in the ON state) within the same unit time (2 ms). In the present embodiment, the time when the signal corresponding to seg is in the ON state is set to 2 ms, which is the same as the unit time length in seg1, is set to about 1 ms, which is shorter than the case of seg1 in seg1, and in the case of seg2 in seg4 Shorter than about 0.5 ms. The signal in seg3 is not turned on and is set to 0 ms (see FIG. 8B). Further, the time for the signal corresponding to com to be in the ON state is set to 2 ms, which is the same as the unit time length in all of com1 to com4 (see FIG. 8C).

  The longer the time for which the signal corresponding to seg is in the ON state, the longer the lighting time per unit time of the light emitting diode 45 for fish, so the light emitting diode 45 for fish becomes brighter, and the signal corresponding to seg is turned on. The shorter the state time is, the shorter the lighting time per unit time of the fish light-emitting diode 45 becomes, so the fish light-emitting diode 45 becomes darker.

  For example, the light emission in which the time when the signal corresponding to seg (seg1 in FIG. 8B) is in the ON state is the same 2 ms as the signal corresponding to com (com1 in FIG. 8C) within the same unit time. In the case of the production pattern P1, it is stipulated that the light emitting diode 45 for the fish corresponding to the squares of seg1 and com1 is lit at the brightest gradation 1. Thereby, it is possible to produce an effect that a school of fish near the sea surface has been detected or a large-scale school of fish has been detected.

  In addition, the time when the signal corresponding to seg (seg2 in FIG. 8B) is in the ON state is about 1 ms, and the signal corresponding to com (com2 in FIG. 8C) is in the ON state within the same unit time. In the case of the light emission effect pattern P2 with a time of 2 ms, it is stipulated that the light emitting diode 45 for the fish corresponding to the squares of seg2 and com2 is lit at the next bright gradation 2. As a result, it is possible to produce an effect that a school of fish located at an intermediate point between the sea surface and the seabed has been detected, or that a medium-scale school of fish has been detected.

  Further, the time when the signal corresponding to seg (seg4 in FIG. 8B) is in the ON state is about 0.5 ms, and the signal corresponding to com (com4 in FIG. 8C) is within the same unit time. In the case of the light emission effect pattern P3 in which the ON state time is 2 ms, it is defined as the light emission effect pattern P3 that the light emitting diode 45 for the fish corresponding to seg4, com4 is lighted at the next bright gradation 3. . Thereby, it is possible to produce an effect that a school of fish near the seabed has been detected or a small school of fish has been detected.

  Further, the movement of the school of fish can be expressed by changing the lighting location of the light emitting diode 45 for the school of fish to be lit. For example, if the corresponding light emitting diodes 52 are sequentially turned on and off one by one in the order of seg1, com1, seg1, com2, seg2, and com3, the state that the school of fish is gradually approaching is well represented. Is possible. Note that the order of turning on and off the needle light emitting diodes 52 may be different.

  Furthermore, the movement of the school of fish can also be expressed by changing the light emission effect pattern of the light emitting diode 45 for the school of fish that is lit. For example, if the light emission effect pattern is changed in the order of P3 → P2 → P1, it is possible to express well how the school of fish is gradually rising to the sea surface side. Note that the order of changing the light emission effect pattern may be different.

  In the liquid crystal symbol display device 15, a symbol combination game is performed in which a symbol combination is derived by changing a plurality of types of symbols in a plurality of columns (for example, three columns). Reach is formed when the symbol stops. In the next stage, for example, the movable body 21 that has been stopped is operated, or the display mode of the movable body 21 is changed. Here, “operating the movable body 21 that has been stopped” means turning on the light emitting diode 52 for the needle that has been turned off, and driving the motor 25 that has been stopped to turn the light transmission member 53. Say. In this case, the effect is as if the fish finder detected the fish school. Further, “changing the display mode of the movable body 21” means, for example, that the detected fish school is moved to the center of the screen or is detected by controlling the light emitting mode of the plurality of light emitting diodes 45 for fish school. This refers to the production of increasing the number of fish schools. Then, the player can raise the expectation that it may reach a big hit from reach, and can aim at improvement of interest. Further, if the light emission mode of the fish school light emitting diode 45 is controlled so as to match the movement of the fish school displayed on the liquid crystal symbol display device 15, further enhancement of interest can be achieved.

  Therefore, according to the present embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.

  (1) By turning the light transmission member 53, which is an actual object, in front of the light emitting diodes 45 for the fish school, which is an actual object, it is possible to produce an effect imitating a three-dimensional and powerful radar. . In addition, according to the present embodiment, which basically includes the light emitting diode 45 for the fish school and the indicator needle 51, for example, unlike the case where the real radar itself is used, it has a simple configuration and can be easily reduced in size. In addition, the movable body 21 can be made inexpensive.

  (2) Since the lightness and darkness of each of the light emitting diodes 45 for fish varies depending on the gradation, for example, the light emitting diodes for fish can be used without shifting the light emitting diodes 45 for fishes in the front-rear direction. A sense of perspective can be given between the 45. By imparting this perspective, it is possible to produce an effect that mimics a three-dimensional and powerful radar.

  (3) The four light emitting diodes 52 for needles are arranged on the substrate 54 provided on the back surface 43 side of the circuit substrate 41. That is, the four light emitting diodes 52 for needles are disposed at different locations from the light transmission member 53. Therefore, compared with the case where the needle light emitting diode 52 is disposed in the light transmission member 53, the configuration of the power feeding portion to the needle light emitting diode 52 can be simplified.

  (4) Since the indicator needle 51 appears to point to the plurality of scale light emitting diodes 77 and the plurality of protrusions 79 arranged in a scale, it is possible to produce an effect that simulates a more powerful radar. Moreover, since the light transmission part 72a has a convex lens shape, light is diffused when passing through the light transmission part 72a. Therefore, it is possible to perform an effect imitating a three-dimensional and powerful radar.

  (5) Since the indicating needle 51 and the light emitting diode 45 for the fish school are hidden by the outer smoke lens 81 when no light is emitted, it is possible to prevent a reduction in reality due to the appearance of extra things when the light is not emitted. In addition, if a place where the inside is not normally visible suddenly emits light or further turns and emits light, the player can feel unexpectedness and can improve interest.

  Further, when the indicator needle 51 emits light, the light emitting diode 45 for fish school may be illuminated by the light of the indicator needle 51 in the front, and in this case, too, the reality is that sometimes an extra thing is seen. Decline is possible. However, in this embodiment, the inner smoke lens 61 can prevent the fish light emitting diode 45 from being visualized when the indicator needle 51 emits light.

  (6) The front end surface of the light emitting portion 75 a to which the light from the scale light emitting diode 77 is transmitted is located behind the front surface of the outer peripheral portion 78 of the decorative cover 76. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the light transmitting portion 72a from being irregularly reflected by reflecting the tip surface of the light emitting portion 75a.

(7) The fish light-emitting diode 45, the needle light-emitting diode 52, and the scale light-emitting diode 77 have relatively low power consumption. Therefore, according to the movable body 21 of the present embodiment, the power consumption of the entire apparatus is reduced. Can do. Further, since the fish light-emitting diode 45, the needle light-emitting diode 52, and the scale light-emitting diode 77 are generally smaller than a small light bulb or the like, the movable body 21 of the present embodiment can increase the size of the entire device. Can be suppressed.
[Second Embodiment]

  Next, the movable body 21 for a pachinko machine according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. In addition, about the structure which is common in 1st Embodiment, the detailed description is abbreviate | omitted instead of attaching | subjecting the same member number.

  As shown in FIG. 9, in this embodiment, a plurality of light emitting diodes 101 (light emitting bodies) are used instead of the fish light emitting diode 45 and the needle light emitting diode 52 in the first embodiment. The plurality of light emitting diodes 101 are irregularly arranged by being fixed to the surface 42 of the circuit board 41 by soldering similarly to the plurality of fish school light emitting diodes 45 in the first embodiment. In the present embodiment, the inner smoke lens 61 in the first embodiment is omitted.

  As shown in FIGS. 9 to 11, the movable body 21 includes an indicator needle 102 as a rotating body. The indicator needle 102 is a member that is given a metallic luster by plating the surface of a resin molded product. The indicator needle 102 is turned in front of the plurality of light emitting diodes 101. The indicator needle 102 includes a reflecting means 103 including a reflecting surface 103a and a blade portion 103b.

  As shown in FIG. 11, the reflective surface 103 a is notched on the back surface side of the needle portion 104 formed to extend from the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion 56. The reflection surface 103 a is a surface inclined 45 ° forward with respect to the surface direction of the circuit board 41. The reflecting surface 103 a reflects light from the light emitting diode 101 located almost directly behind the needle portion 104 in a direction opposite to the rotation direction of the indicator needle 102.

  As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the blade portion 103 b is formed to extend from the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion 56 by substantially the same length as the needle portion 104. A gap C <b> 1 for transmitting light from the light emitting diode 101 forward is provided between the blade portion 103 b and the needle portion 104. The wing | blade part 103b has comprised the substantially fan shape which becomes wide gradually as it goes to a front-end | tip. Further, since the blade portion 103b is gradually bent slightly forward as it goes in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the indicator needle 102, the front surface of the blade portion 103b is concave. For this reason, the blade | wing part 103b reflects the light reflected by the reflective surface 103a ahead.

  The sub CPU 94a (see FIG. 7) of the light emission control board 94 is not only controlled to change the brightness of the plurality of light emitting diodes 101 as in the first embodiment, but also in synchronization with the turning of the indicator needle 102. Control is performed to turn on the light emitting diode 101 directly behind 102. In other words, the plurality of light emitting diodes 101 provide not only an effect of displaying a fish school but also an effect of causing a needle of a turning fish finder to emit light.

  Therefore, according to the present embodiment, since the light from the light emitting diode 101 can be reflected in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the indicator needle 102 by the reflecting surface 103a, the indicator needle 102 can be illuminated so as to pull the tail. it can. Therefore, it is possible to perform an effect imitating a more three-dimensional and powerful radar. Furthermore, since the light reflected in the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the indicator needle 102 is reflected forward by the blade portion 103b, the indicator needle 102 itself can appear to emit light. Therefore, when the turning indicator needle 102 is regarded as a turning needle on the screen of the fish finder, the reality is further increased. In addition, it is not necessary to provide the light emitting diode 101 for causing the indicator needle 102 to emit light separately from the light emitting diode 101 for performing the effect of displaying the school of fish, so that the movable body 21 can be reduced in size.

  In addition, you may change embodiment of this invention as follows.

  In both of the above embodiments, by changing the lighting time per unit time of each of the plurality of fish light emitting diodes 45 or the plurality of light emitting diodes 101, the plurality of fish light emitting diodes 45 or the plurality of light emitting diodes 101 Each lightness and darkness was changeable. However, it is possible to change the lightness and darkness of the plurality of fish school light emitting diodes 45 or the plurality of light emitting diodes 101 by arranging the plurality of fish school light emitting diodes 45 or the plurality of light emitting diodes 101 so as to be shifted in the front-rear direction. Good.

  In this way, it is possible to easily give a sense of perspective between the light emitting diode 45 for the fish school or the light emitting diode 101 without changing the brightness of the light emitting diode 45 for the fish school or the light emitting diode 101, for example. Can do. By imparting this perspective, it is possible to produce an effect that mimics a three-dimensional and powerful radar. In addition, according to this structure, since it is not necessary to perform the control which changes the brightness of the light emitting diode 45 for fish schools or the light emitting diode 101 by sub CPU94a, the burden concerning sub CPU94a can be reduced.

  When a small light bulb is used as the first light emitter and the light emitter, the light-darkness of the small light bulb may be changed by changing the turn-off interval while keeping the lighting time of the small light bulb constant.

  In both of the above embodiments, eight scale light emitting diodes 77 are used as the third light emitter. However, a small light bulb (lamp), an electroluminescence element (EL element), or the like may be used as the third light emitter.

  In both of the above embodiments, the movable body 21 is operated when the reach is formed in the liquid crystal display device 15, but the liquid crystal is triggered when the movable body 21 is operated. The symbol combination display device 15 may perform a symbol combination game to form a reach. Further, the movable body 21 may be operated at a timing different from the timing at which reach is formed in the liquid crystal symbol display device 15.
