Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine, and more particularly to a gaming machine provided with a shutter member for effects and decoration.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there is a rotating type game machine generally called a pachislot machine. In this gaming machine, when a player inserts a medal and depresses the start lever, the three reels are rotated to display various types of symbols arranged around the reels in a display frame, and to perform a lottery drawing. Do. Next, when the player presses three stop buttons, the reel stop control is performed so that the symbol corresponding to the winning combination is displayed in the display frame in a predetermined winning mode. As a result, when a symbol corresponding to the winning combination is displayed in the display frame in a predetermined winning manner, a winning is established, and a predetermined profit such as a medal payout is given to the player. A series of operations as described above is referred to as one game, and the game progresses by repeating this one game.

  In such a gaming machine, various effects and decorations have been devised in order to improve the visual effect. For example, a pattern is previously drawn on a transparent plate provided on the front side of the image display device with a paint that reacts with ultraviolet rays, and the pattern is colored by irradiating the pattern with ultraviolet rays with a predetermined probability. (For example, see Patent Document 1).

  In addition, there is a gaming machine in which an outer reel and an inner reel are provided, and a superposed picture is formed with symbols arranged on the outer reel and the inner reel (see, for example, Patent Document 2).

  Also, a shutter member is provided on the front side of the image display device, and the shutter member is moved so as to cover at least a part of the display area of the image display device in accordance with a player's stop operation or an image displayed on the image display device. There is also a gaming machine to be played (see, for example, Patent Document 3).

(Control circuit configuration)
Next, a control circuit configuration of the gaming machine 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

  The reel start switch 301 transmits a detection signal when the start lever 22 is pressed to the main control board 400 and gives an opportunity for the reel unit 312 to rotate the reel. The bet button switch 302 transmits a detection signal when the bet button 21 is pressed to the main control board 400, and gives an opportunity to set the number of credits for the designated number of medals in the credit state. The stop button switch 303 transmits a detection signal when the stop button 23 is pressed to the main control board 400, and gives an opportunity to stop the rotation of the reel corresponding to the pressed stop button. The medal sensor switch 305 transmits a detection signal when a medal is inserted into the medal insertion slot 20 to the main control board 400, and gives an opportunity to set the multiplied number by the number of inserted coins. The reset circuit 307 sets the main control board 400 and the sub control board 500 to an initial state. The power supply circuit 318 supplies power to the entire circuit. In response to the instruction from the main control board 400, the hopper control device 316 releases the medal from the medal discharge port. The reel unit 312 includes three stepping motors that rotate the reels 2a, 2b, and 2c, a drive circuit that drives the stepping motors based on the excitation pattern from the main control board 400, and the reels 2a, 2b, and 2c. An index sensor is provided that outputs a detection signal when each index piece attached to is detected.

  In response to an instruction from the sub control board 500, the LED display device 313 selectively turns on / off the LEDs of the center lighting device 12, the left and right side lighting devices 13, and the like. The lamp display device 314 is a device for blinking a lamp provided in the gaming machine 1. The sound effect generator 315 outputs an effect sound from the speaker 14 in response to an instruction from the sub control board 500.

  The main control board 400 includes a CPU 401, a ROM 402, and a RAM 403. The main control board 400 takes in a signal from each switch via an input port (not shown), performs processing, and outputs various commands based on the processing to an output port (not shown). ) To output externally.

  The RAM 403 temporarily stores input / output data, various counters such as a random number counter for role lottery, various flags, and the like. The ROM 402 stores a role lottery table that defines the winning probability of a role in each gaming state, various tables for reel rotation control, and various commands. A program for controlling a game is stored in the ROM 402, and the CPU 401 controls a lottery drawing, rotation of the reels 2a, 2b, 2c, and a medal payout according to the program.

  The sub control board 500 includes a CPU 501, a ROM 502, and a RAM 503, and performs various effects control based on commands received from the main control board 400.
