[2-9. Lock mechanism for upper hinge member on outer frame side]
Next, in the outer frame 2 of the pachinko machine 1 according to the present embodiment, a locking mechanism for the main body frame side upper hinge member 620 of the main body frame 4 by the lock member 66 in the outer frame side upper hinge member 60 will be described with reference to FIGS. The description will be given with reference. FIG. 17A is an enlarged perspective view showing a state in which the main body frame side upper hinge member of the main body frame is removed with respect to the outer frame side upper hinge member of the outer frame, and FIG. It is a perspective view which expands and shows the state by which the main body side upper hinge member is attached to the hinge member. FIG. 18 is an explanatory view showing the action of the lock member in the outer frame.

  When the lock member 66 in the outer frame 2 is attached to the front extension portion 62 of the outer frame side upper hinge member 60 (normal state), the tip of the elastic portion 66 c is in contact with the inner peripheral surface of the hanging portion 65. In addition, the lock body 66a is configured to close a part of the bearing groove 63 bent in a square shape, and the distal end portion of the lock body 66a does not close the deepest part of the bearing groove 63. In the deepest portion of the bearing groove 63, a space is formed in which the body frame upper hinge pin 622 of the body frame side upper hinge member 620 of the body frame 4 can be inserted.

  The support mechanism of the body frame upper hinge pin 622 using the outer frame side upper hinge member 60 and the lock member 66 in this embodiment is such that the body frame upper hinge pin 622 is inserted into the deepest portion of the bearing groove 63 and the front end of the lock body 66a. The right side surface of the lock body 66 is in close contact with the right hanging portion 65 (in this state, there is a slight gap between the right side surface at the front end of the lock body 66a and the right hanging portion 65 so that it is in contact with the right hanging surface 65). In the normal shaft support state, the center of the hinge pin 622 on the main body frame located at the deepest portion of the bent bearing groove 63 and the front end surface of the lock main body 66a are opposed to each other in an oblique direction. It is in a state.

  In this normal shaft support state, the main body frame hinge pin 622 supporting the heavy main body frame 4 is in contact with the front end portion of the bearing groove 63. A load from 622 to the front end surface of the lock body 66a is hardly applied. That is, no load is applied to the elastic portion 66c of the lock member 66. Since the front end surface of the lock body 66a is formed in an arc shape, the lock member 66 smoothly rotates when the operation portion 66b is rotated to rotate the lock member 66. Yes. In the drawing, the center of the arc of the front end surface of the lock body 66a is the center of the mounting hole 66d (the rotation center of the lock member 66).

  Therefore, when the acting force F is applied in a direction in which the hinge pin 622 on the body frame is removed along the inclination of the bearing groove 63 formed in a square shape, the acting force is applied to the arcuate front end surface of the lock body 66a. F is a component force F1 (normal direction of the arc of the front end surface of the lock main body 66a) acting on a contact portion between the hinge pin 622 on the main body frame and the arc-shaped front end surface, and the hinge pin 622 on the main body frame and the bearing groove 63. The component force F1 is directed to the center of the mounting hole 66d (mounting screw 67) (the rotation center of the lock member 66) when divided into the component force F2 acting on the contact portion with the inner surface of the one side. The moment of rotating the front end of the lock main body 66 a of the lock member 66 in the direction away from the right hanging portion 65 does not act, and the hinge pin 622 on the main body frame is connected to the front end of the lock main body 66 a of the lock member 66 and the bearing groove 63. Inside Clamped state is maintained between the.

  For this reason, even in a normal shaft support state or a state where the acting force of the hinge pin 622 on the main body frame is applied to the lock member 66, the elastic portion 66c of the lock member 66 is not constantly loaded, and is integrally formed of synthetic resin. It is possible to prevent plastic deformation caused by creep of the elastic portion 66c, and to prevent the hinge pin 622 on the main body frame from coming off from the bearing groove 63 over a long period of time. Even if an excessive force is applied and the front end portion of the lock main body 66a of the lock member 66 is rotated in the direction of moving to the right, the right side surface of the front end of the lock main body 66a contacts the drooping portion 65 and beyond. Since it does not rotate, the lock member 66 is prevented from protruding outside the front extension 62.

  Even if the shape of the front end surface of the lock body 66a is not an arc, the position where the rotational moment does not occur due to the action of the component force F1 described above or the front end portion of the lock member 66 faces the outside of the front extension portion 62. By positioning the rotation center of the lock member 66 (the axis fixed by the mounting screw 67) at a position where the rotational moment to rotate is generated, a load is not applied to the elastic portion 66c of the lock member 66 at all times. Even if the lock member 66 rotates, the right side surface of the front end of the lock body 66 a only abuts on the hanging portion 65, so that the lock member 66 does not protrude outside the front extension portion 62.

  When the main body frame hinge pin 622 of the main body frame side upper hinge member 620 is supported by the bearing groove 63 of the outer frame side upper hinge member 60, the main body frame is inserted into the bearing groove 63 from the open side of the bearing groove 63. The hinge pin 622 is inserted. When the hinge pin 622 on the body frame is inserted into the bearing groove 63, the hinge pin 622 on the body frame comes into contact with the right side surface of the lock body 66a of the lock member 66, and the front end of the lock body 66a is against the urging force of the elastic portion 66c. The lock member 66 rotates about the mounting screw 67 so as to move to the left. As a result, the lock main body 66 a that has closed the bearing groove 63 is retracted, the bearing groove 63 is opened, and the main body frame hinge pin 622 can be moved to the deepest portion (front end) of the bearing groove 63.

  When the body frame hinge pin 622 is moved to the deepest part of the bearing groove 63, the contact between the body frame hinge pin 622 and the lock body 66a of the lock member 66 is released, and the lock body 66a is urged by the urging force of the elastic portion 66c. The lock member 66 rotates so that the front end of the lock member moves to the right, and the lock member 66 returns to the normal state. As a result, the hinge pin 622 on the body frame is accommodated in a space in front of the front end of the lock body 66 a in the bearing groove 63, and the hinge pin 622 on the body frame is rotatable at the deepest portion of the bearing groove 63. The state is held (locked) in the state.

When the hinge pin 622 on the main body frame is removed from the bearing groove 63, the lock member 66 is rotated so that the front end of the lock main body 66a moves to the left by operating the operation portion 66b of the lock member 66. The lock body 66a is retracted from the bearing groove 63 against the urging force of 66c.
As a result, the deepest part of the bearing groove 63 and the opening communicate with each other, and the hinge pin 622 on the main body frame can be removed from the bearing groove 63.

[2-10. Crime prevention mechanism and ball biting prevention mechanism at the outer frame side lower hinge member]

The mechanism will be described.

  When the outer frame 2 is assembled, an outer frame side lower hinge member 70 is attached to the left end portion in front view on the upper surface of the curtain plate member 50. The horizontal portion 71 of the outer frame side lower hinge member 70 is mounted in a state of being placed near the left end of the upper surface of the curtain plate member 50 and the upper surface of the rear extending portion 51. The curtain plate member 50 includes a standing wall portion 54 that rises upward from the rear end of the upper surface. As a result, even if an unauthorized tool such as a piano wire enters the rear side of the main body frame 4 (pachinko machine 1) through the gap between the outer frame side lower hinge member 70 and the main body frame side lower hinge member 640. Since the tip of the unauthorized tool comes into contact with the standing wall 54 extending upward from the rear end of the upper surface of the curtain plate member 50, it is possible to prevent the unauthorized tool from being inserted further to the rear side. It is possible to prevent an illegal act from being performed via the outer frame side lower hinge member 70.

  Moreover, since the return part 55 extended ahead is provided in the upper end of the standing wall part 54, when the unauthorized tool contact | abutted to the standing wall part 54 bends upwards, the front-end | tip of an unauthorized tool by the return part 55 Can be folded further forward, so that unauthorized tools can be prevented from entering the rear side of the main body frame 4, and an illegal act is performed through the portion of the outer frame side lower hinge member 70. Can be surely prevented.

  By the way, when the upright wall portion 54 extending upward is provided at the rear end of the upper surface of the curtain plate member 50, the game ball is placed on the outer frame side while the main body frame 4 is opened with respect to the outer frame 2. When falling on the lower hinge member 70 (horizontal portion 71), the game ball on the horizontal portion 71 is not discharged backward from the rear end of the horizontal portion 71 due to the presence of the standing wall portion 54, so the outer frame 2 and the main body frame 4 There is a risk of being caught between. On the other hand, in this embodiment, the discharge hole 74 and the left discharge hole 52 through which the game ball can pass through the horizontal part 71 of the outer frame side lower hinge member 70 and the rearward extension part 51 of the curtain plate member 50. And the right discharge hole 53, the game ball on the horizontal portion 71 of the outer frame side lower hinge member 70 can be discharged downward from the discharge hole 74 and the like. It is possible to reduce the game ball being caught between the two.

  Therefore, when the game ball is sandwiched between the outer frame 2 and the main body frame 4, the periphery of the outer frame side lower hinge member 70 is damaged, or the main body frame 4 is not closed in a normal state. It is possible to prevent a gap from being formed between the main body frame 4 and illegal acts using the gap.

  The ball feeding member 254 has a fan-shaped blocking portion 254a and a rear end of the blocking portion 254a in plan view with the rotation axis extending in the vertical direction facing the entrance 251a and the partitioning portion 253a of the ball removing member 253. A sphere holding portion 254b that is recessed in an arc shape from the rotation axis to the rotation shaft core side, and a rod-like flange portion 254c that extends downward from the rear end of the sphere holding portion 254b. The blocking portion 254a and the ball holding portion 254b of the ball feeding member 254 are formed adjacent to each other within an angle range of about 180 ° around the rotation axis. Further, the ball holding portion 254b of the ball feeding member 254 has a size that can hold one game ball. The ball feeding member 254 rotates around the rotation axis when the collar portion 254c arranged at a position eccentric from the rotation axis is moved in the left-right direction by driving the ball feeding solenoid 255.

  The ball feeding member 254 includes a supply position in which the blocking portion 254a faces the direction of the partition portion 253a and at the same time the ball holding portion 254b communicates with the hitting ball supply port 252a, and the ball holding portion 254b is in the direction of the partition portion 253a. It is designed to rotate between the holding position facing toward. When the ball feeding member 254 is in the supply position, the game ball held in the ball holding portion 254b is supplied from the hitting ball supply port 252a to the ball launching device 680 and enters the partition portion 253a from the entrance 251a. However, the blocking unit 254a blocks the movement toward the ball holding unit 254b (hitting ball supply port 252a) and stays on the partition unit 253a. On the other hand, when the ball feed member 254 rotates to the holding position, the ball holding portion 254b faces the partition portion 253a, and the end of the ball holding portion 254b on the flange 254c side closes the hitting ball supply port 252a. Only one game ball on the partition portion 253a is held in the ball holding portion 254b.

  Further, the ball feed unit 250 is moved back and forth by the ball feed operation rod 256 whose tip is swung vertically by driving (energizing) the ball feed solenoid 255 and the movement of the tip of the ball feed operation rod 256 swinging vertically. And a ball feed crank 257 that rotates around an axis extending in the direction and rotates the ball feed member 254 around an axis extending in the vertical direction. The ball feed crank 257 is engageable with the tip of the ball feed actuating rod 256 that moves up and down and extends in the left-right direction, and the side that engages the ball feed actuating rod 256 of the engaging portion 257a. A shaft portion 257b that is disposed on the opposite side and is pivotally supported around a shaft extending in the front-rear direction between the front cover 251 and the rear cover 252 and extending upward from the shaft portion 257b, A transmission portion 257c that engages with a rod-shaped flange portion 254c (see FIG. 35B) that protrudes downward from a position that is eccentric with respect to the rotation center of the member 254 is provided.

  The ball feed unit 250 transmits the movement of the ball feed actuating rod 256 that is swung by driving the ball feed solenoid 255 that moves forward and backward by the ball feed actuating rod 256 and the ball feed crank 257 so that the ball feed member 254 is moved. It can be rotated. When the ball feeding solenoid 255 is not driven (normal time), the ball feeding operation rod 256 is separated from the lower end of the ball feeding solenoid 255 and the tip is positioned downward. In this state, the ball feeding member 254 is in the supply position. It will be in the state located. Further, when the ball feeding solenoid 255 is driven, the ball feeding operating rod 256 is attracted to the lower end of the ball feeding solenoid 255 so that the tip is positioned upward, and the ball feeding member 254 is rotated to the holding position. That is, when the ball feeding solenoid 255 is driven (ON state), the ball feeding member 254 receives one game ball, and when the ball feeding solenoid 255 is released (OFF state), the ball feeding member 254 is activated. Can be sent (supplied) to the ball launcher 680 side. The driving of the ball feeding solenoid 255 in the ball feeding unit 250 is controlled in synchronization with the driving control of the firing solenoid 682 by a firing control unit (not shown) of the payout control board 951.

  Further, the ball removing member 253 pivotally supported in the ball feeding unit 250 is applied with a moment that rotates counterclockwise by the weight portion 253d, but protrudes forward. Since the rotation of the actuating rod 253c is brought into contact with the upper end of the operation transmitting portion 327a that is operated by the pressing operation of the upper dish ball removal button 327 of the dish unit 320, the ball removal member 253 is normally operated. The partition 253a partitions the entrance 251a and the ball outlet 251b, so that the game ball does not enter the ball outlet 251b side.

  When the player presses the upper dish ball removal button 327 of the dish unit 320 downward, the upper dish ball removal slider 327b slides downward together with the operation transmission unit 327a, and the operation transmission unit 327a moves downward. Accordingly, the operating rod 253c also moves relatively downward. When the operating rod 253c moves downward together with the operation transmitting portion 327a, the ball removing member 253 rotates in the counterclockwise direction when viewed from the front, and the partition between the entrance 251a and the ball outlet 251b by the partition portion 253a is released. Is done. As a result, the game ball that has entered from the entrance 251a is discharged from the ball outlet 251b to the ball outlet guide path 323f of the tray unit 320 and discharged (supplied) to the lower tray 322 via the lower tray ball supply port 323c. be able to.

  The upper dish ball removal slider 327b formed with the action transmitting portion 327a with which the operation rod 253c of the ball removal member 253 contacts is urged upward by the upper dish ball removal spring 327c. Even if game balls are supplied vigorously, the impact can be absorbed by the upper dish ball removal spring 327c via the operating rod 253c, and the ball removal member 253 and the like can be prevented from being damaged. The game ball can be prevented from bouncing back at the partition portion 253a.

  The ball feeding unit 250 has a rectangular mounting recess 252b (see FIG. 35 (b) and the like) that is recessed forward in the upper right in the rear view of the hitting ball supply port 252a in the rear cover 252. A tamper-proof member 260 is mounted in the mounting recess 252b. The fraud prevention member 260 of the ball feeding unit 250 is formed of a hard metal plate such as tool steel or stainless steel, and is attached to the inside of the mounting recess 252b of the rear cover 252 so as to be detachable from the rear side.

  The fraud prevention member 260 is formed in a rectangular shape whose outer shape in front view extends to the left and right, and an upper piece 261 that is vertically separated at a substantially vertical center in a predetermined distance from the right side to the left. A lower piece 262, and inclined portions 263 that are each formed in a C-chamfered shape on the tip side (the right end side in front view) of the sides of the upper piece 261 and the lower piece 262 facing each other. . The upper piece 261 of the anti-fraud member 260 is bent with respect to the general surface of the anti-fraud member 260 so that the right end in front view protrudes backward. The lower piece 262 extends on the same plane as the general surface of the tamper-proof member 260. Thereby, in a plan view, the upper piece portion 261 and the lower piece portion 262 form a V-shaped groove that expands toward the right.

  The fraud prevention member 260 is attached to the attachment recess 252b of the rear cover 252 so that the V-shaped groove formed by the upper piece 261 and the lower piece 262 communicates with the inside of the hit ball supply port 252a. Become.

  According to the fraud prevention member 260, an illegal game ball with a string attached is driven into the game area 5a by the ball launcher 680 from the upper plate 321 via the ball feed unit 250, and attached to the illegal game ball. When a fraudulent act is performed in which an illegal game ball is taken in and out of the first starting port 2002 by operating a string, the illegal game ball launched (hit) by the ball launcher 680 is illegal. After a string attached to a simple game ball is inserted between the upper piece 261 and the lower piece 262, the V-shaped narrow formed by the upper piece 261 and the lower piece 262 is narrowed. It can be cut by the part, and it is possible to prevent an illegal act using an illegal game ball with a string attached.

  The handle unit 300 covers the handle base 301 attached to the cylindrical portion 181 of the handle attachment member 180 in the door frame base unit 100, the handle 302 attached rotatably to the front end of the handle base 301, and the front end side of the handle 302. And a handle cover 303 attached to the handle base 301.

  The handle unit 300 has an inner base 304 attached to the front surface of the handle base 301 on the rear side of the handle 302, a handle 302 attached to the front end, and a rotatable attachment by the inner base 304 and the handle base 301 on the outer periphery. A shaft member 305 having a drive gear portion 305a, a transmission gear 306 meshing with the drive gear portion 305a of the shaft member 305, a detection shaft 307a rotating integrally with the transmission gear 306, and a handle base 301 and an inner And a handle rotation detection sensor 307 sandwiched between the base and the base.

  Furthermore, the handle unit 300 is attached so that one end side is attached to the handle base 301 and the other end side is attached to the handle 302 so that the handle 302 is returned to the initial rotation position (rotation end in the counterclockwise direction when viewed from the front). One end side is attached to the inner base 304 and the other end side is attached to the transmission gear 306, and the detection shaft 307a of the handle rotation detection sensor 307 is rotated clockwise in front view via the transmission gear 306. The auxiliary spring 309 biased in the direction, the handle touch sensor 310 attached to the handle base 301 behind the inner base 304, and the tip side outward from the left side of the front end outer peripheral surface of the handle base 301 in front view. The handle is protruding and the base end is behind the inner base 304 A single button 311 that is rotatably mounted around a shaft extending in the front-rear direction of the case 301, and a single button operation sensor 312 that is attached to the handle base 301 by detecting a pressing operation of the single button 311. Yes.

  A handle base 301 of the handle unit 300 includes a cylindrical base portion 301a extending in the front-rear direction, a disk-shaped front end portion 301b protruding in a radial direction from the front end of the base portion 301a, and a hollow from the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical base portion 301a. And three groove portions 301c that extend in the axial direction and are formed at irregular intervals in the circumferential direction. The base 301 a of the handle base 301 is formed so that the outer diameter is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the cylindrical portion 181 of the handle mounting member 180. Further, the three groove portions 301 c are formed at positions corresponding to the three protrusions 183 of the cylindrical portion 181 in the handle mounting member 180. Accordingly, the base 301a can be inserted into the cylindrical portion 181 of the handle mounting member 180 with the three groove portions 301c aligned with the three protrusions 183, and the protrusions 183 are respectively inserted into the three groove portions 301c. By being inserted, the handle base 301 cannot rotate relative to the handle mounting member 180.

  The handle 302 includes four first protrusions 302a, second protrusions 302b, third protrusions 302c, and fourth protrusions 302d that protrude outward in the circumferential direction from the outer peripheral surface, and a rotation shaft (shaft member 305). Two slits 302e extending in a circular arc shape as a center and penetrating in the front-rear direction, and projecting rearward from an inner position with respect to the rotation center with respect to the slit 302e, the other end side of the handle return spring 308 is locked. A locking projection 302f.

  The four first protrusions 302a, the second protrusions 302b, the third protrusions 302c, and the fourth protrusions 302d are sequentially provided in the clockwise direction when viewed from the front. Specifically, the first protrusion 302a bulges so that the side surface in the clockwise direction of the front portion of the portion that protrudes most from the general outer peripheral surface of the handle 302 bulges outward, and the opposite side is the opposite side. The side surface in the direction of is recessed (curled) so as to curve inward. The portion of the second protrusion 302b that protrudes most from the general outer peripheral surface of the handle 302 is separated from the portion of the first protrusion 302a that protrudes most clockwise by a rotation angle of about 85 degrees. Slightly low. The second protrusion 302b bulges so that the side surface in the clockwise direction of the front projection of the second protrusion 302b bulges outward, and the side surface in the direction around the counter-tick that is the opposite side is curved inward. And is formed in a shape similar to the first protrusion 302a.

  In the third protrusion 302c, the most protruding portion from the general outer peripheral surface of the handle 302 is separated from the most protruding portion of the second protrusion 302b in a clockwise direction by a rotation angle of about 70 degrees. It protrudes at about half the height. The third protrusion 302c is inclined substantially linearly on both sides, and more gently than the side face in the counterclockwise direction where the side face in the clockwise direction is the opposite side. The fourth protrusion 302d has a portion that protrudes most from the general outer peripheral surface of the handle 302 away from the most protruding portion of the third protrusion 302c in a clockwise direction by a rotation angle of about 55 degrees, and from the first protrusion 302a. It protrudes slightly higher. The fourth protrusion 302d is formed in a substantially isosceles triangle with side surfaces on both sides inclined substantially linearly.

  The handle cover 303 is provided with three mounting bosses 303a that have a round front center and bulge forward and project rearward. The three attachment bosses 303a are attached to the front surface of the handle base 301 through the slits 302e of the handle 302 from the front. Since the attachment boss 303a of the handle cover 303 passes through the slit 302e of the handle 302, the attachment boss 303a comes into contact with the circumferential end of the slit 302e, thereby restricting the rotation angle of the handle 302. In this example, the handle 302 can be rotated within a range of a rotation angle of about 120 degrees.

  The handle unit 300 is attached to the handle attachment seat surface 112 of the door frame base 110 via a handle attachment member 180. The handle mounting seat surface 112 of the door frame base 110 is inclined so that the right end side is positioned rearward of the left end side in plan view and faces the outside (open side). The handle unit 300 that is attached to the pachinko machine 1 is also inclined to the outside in a plan view (in other words, its tip is inclined to the outside of the pachinko machine 1 with respect to a line orthogonal to the front surface of the pachinko machine 1). Are attached and fixed to the door frame 3. Thereby, the player can easily grip the handle 302 of the handle unit 300, and can perform a turning operation without feeling uncomfortable.

  The handle rotation detection sensor 307 of the handle unit 300 is a variable resistor. When the handle 302 is rotated, the detection shaft 307 a of the handle rotation detection sensor 307 rotates via the shaft member 305 and the transmission gear 306. The internal resistance of the handle rotation detection sensor 307 changes according to the rotation angle of the detection shaft 307a, and the driving force of the firing solenoid 682 in the ball launching device 680 described later changes according to the internal resistance of the handle rotation detection sensor 307. The game ball is driven into the game area 5a with a strength corresponding to the rotation angle of the handle 302.

  The outer peripheral surfaces of the handle 302 and the handle cover 303 are conductively plated, and the handle touch sensor 310 detects contact when the player contacts the handle 302 or the like. When the handle 302 is rotated while the handle touch sensor 310 detects a player's contact, the detection of the handle rotation detection sensor 307 is accepted, and the firing solenoid has a strength corresponding to the rotation angle of the handle 302. The driving of 682 is controlled, and a game ball can be shot. That is, even if the player tries to drive the game ball into the game area 5a by rotating the handle 302 by some method without touching the handle 302, the firing solenoid 682 is not driven and the game ball can be driven. I can't do it. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the player from playing the game by rotating the handle 302 in a different way from the original, and to reduce the load (burden) on the game hall where the pachinko machine 1 is installed. .

  Further, in the handle unit 300, when the player presses the single button 311 while rotating the handle 302, the single button operation sensor 312 detects the operation of the single button 311, and the firing control unit (illustrated) of the payout control board 951 is shown. Is omitted), the rotation drive of the firing solenoid 682 is stopped. This makes it possible to temporarily stop the playing of the game ball without returning the rotation operation of the handle 302 and to release the single button 311 before operating the single button 311 by releasing the pressing operation of the single button 311. The game ball can be driven again into the game area 5a with strength.

  Further, the handle unit 300 includes four first protrusions 302a, second protrusions 302b, third protrusions 302c, and fourth protrusions 302d on the handle 302, and the handle 302 is most rotated in the clockwise direction when viewed from the front. Thus, when the game ball is driven most strongly into the game area 5a (so-called “right-handed”), the position of the first protrusion 302a when the handle 302 is not rotated is the fourth protrusion 302d. Therefore, by changing the handle 302 with the fourth protrusion 302d as the first protrusion 302a, the player can maintain the handle 302 in the “right-handed” position in an easy state. It is possible to reduce a person's feeling of fatigue and suppress a decrease in interest in games.

It inclines so that it may become slightly lower toward the position below the outer diameter. Thereby, the game ball released forward from the upper plate ball supply port 323a can be received and stored in the upper plate 321, and the received game ball can be stored from the right end side of the guide passage portion 321a. It can be supplied to the ball feeding port 323d.

  As described above, the upper plate 321 is formed such that the bottom surface thereof is lowered downward in the guide passage portion 321a in which the depth in the front-rear direction becomes narrow. That is, a part of the upper plate 321 protrudes from above into the mounting space 326j of the plate unit cover 326 to which a later-described effect operation unit 400 (second effect operation unit 400A) is attached. Therefore, in the upper plate 321, a sufficient amount of game balls can be secured. The upper plate 321 (upper plate main body 324) protrudes into the mounting space 326j of the plate unit cover 326 so as not to contact the effect operation unit 400 (second effect operation unit 400A).

  The guide passage portion 321a is provided with a metal grounding metal 321b that is electrically grounded (grounded) in the pachinko machine 1, and the game ball comes into contact with (rolls), so that the game ball Charged static electricity can be removed.

[3-3b. Lower plate]
The lower plate 322 of the plate unit 320 will be described in detail mainly with reference to FIGS. 41 to 45 and the like. The lower dish 322 is disposed below the upper dish 321 and on the left side of the center of the dish unit 320 (door frame 3) in the left-right direction when viewed from the front. The lower tray 322 is formed in a container shape that can store a game ball, and is attached to the tray tray cover 326 and a lower tray ball removal hole 322a that penetrates the bottom wall portion 325a up and down to allow the game ball to be discharged. And an escape portion 322b for avoiding contact with the rendered production operation unit 400 (second production operation unit 400A). The relief portion 322b of the lower plate 322 is formed such that the right front corner is recessed in an arc shape toward the rear.

  The lower plate 322 includes a lower plate main body 325 whose upper and rear sides are open, a lower plate cover portion 326k that covers the upper side from the left end side of the lower plate main body 325, and an open of the lower plate main body 325. A dish unit base 323 that is closed at the rear, and a lower dish cover 340 that covers the upper side of the portion of the lower dish body 325 that projects into the effect operation unit mounting portion 326a. The cover 326 faces outward from the lower plate opening 326d. As shown in FIGS. 28 and 45, the lower plate 322 has a quadrangular shape in which the outer peripheral shape in plan view extends to the left and right, and a trapezoid in which the front side of the quadrangle is the base and the upper side shorter than the base is disposed on the front side. Are curved so that the left and right sides of the trapezoid extending obliquely are recessed backward. The lower plate 322 is formed such that the width in the left-right direction increases in the plan view from the front to the rear.

  As shown in FIGS. 43 and 44 and the like, the lower dish main body 325 is formed in a container shape whose upper and rear sides are open. The lower dish main body 325 has a flat bottom wall portion 325a, a main body standing wall portion 325b extending upward from an outer peripheral end excluding a rear end side of the bottom wall portion 325a, and a game ball passing through the bottom wall portion 325a. A lower dish ball removal hole 322a penetrating vertically in a possible size. The outer peripheral shape of the bottom wall portion 325a is curved so that the left and right sides extending left and right, and the front side of the quadrangle and the upper side shorter than the bottom side are arranged on the front side and the left and right sides extending obliquely are recessed backward. It is formed in a shape that combines a trapezoid. The bottom wall portion 325a (the upper surface thereof) is inclined so as to become lower toward the lower dish ball removal hole 322a. The main body standing wall 325b rises upward from the bottom wall 325a at a height that is two to five times the diameter of the game ball. The lower dish ball removal hole 322a is formed at a position on the right side of the center in the left-right direction of the lower dish body 325 (bottom wall portion 325a). In the lower dish main body 325, the curved portion at the front right front corner of the bottom wall portion 325a and the main body standing wall portion 325b corresponds to the escape portion 322b.

  The lower plate cover 340 is formed so as to cover approximately the upper right half of the lower plate body 325. As shown in FIGS. 43 and 44, the lower plate cover 340 includes a cover upright wall portion 340a that rises upward from the upper end of the main body standing wall portion 325b of the lower platen main body 325, and an approximately upper end of the cover upright wall portion 340a. A ceiling portion 340b extending horizontally. The cover standing wall portion 340a rises from a portion from a part of the front side of the main body standing wall portion 325b of the lower dish main body 325 to the rear end of the right side. When the lower tray cover 340 is assembled to the tray unit 320, the rear ends of the cover standing wall portion 340a and the ceiling portion 340b are in contact with the front surface of the tray unit base 323. Further, the front end (the left end side of the front side) of the cover standing wall 340a is in contact with the right end side of the lower plate opening 326d of the plate unit cover 326. Furthermore, the left end of the ceiling part 340b is in contact with the right end of the lower dish cover part 326k of the dish unit cover 326. In the lower plate cover 340, the curved surface portion of the cover standing wall portion 340a and the portion extending obliquely between the cover standing wall portion 340a and the ceiling portion 340b on the rear side correspond to the escape portion 322b. Yes.

  The lower plate 322 is covered with a plate unit cover 326 (the production operation unit 400) from the vicinity of the left end of the front end side of the front end side that extends short to the left and right, and more than half of the production operation unit 400 in the front view. Located behind. That is, the lower plate 322 is formed such that the right half wraps around the effect operation unit 400. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 45, the lower plate 322 includes a lower plate first area A1 (a cross hatch area in FIG. 45) located behind a lower plate opening 326d of a plate unit cover 326, which will be described later, and a lower plate. Lower pan second area A2 (shaded in FIG. 45) located behind the opening 326d on the right side (the rendering operation unit 400, the rendering operation unit mounting portion 326a in the tray unit cover 326, and the front end side of the lower tray cover 340). Area). In other words, the lower dish 322 is more than half of the storage area in which the game ball can be stored (the area corresponding to the storage area in plan view and the lower dish first area A1 and the lower dish second area A2). It is located behind the rendering operation unit 400. In FIG. 45, the dotted hatch area is the remaining space (area) of the mounting space 326 j in the dish unit cover 326.

  In the lower plate 322, a lower plate ball supply port 323c that forms the rear wall is open to the right side of the center of the rear wall in the left-right direction when viewed from the front. More specifically, the lower tray ball supply port 323c of the lower tray 322 includes the rendering operation unit 400, the rendering operation unit mounting portion 326a (the right outside of the lower tray opening 326d) in the tray unit cover 326, and the front end of the lower tray cover 340. It arrange | positions at the lower plate | pan 2nd area | region A2 used as the back of the side. Accordingly, when the door frame 3 is viewed from the front, the lower tray ball supply port 323c is not visible from the player side through the lower tray opening 326d (see FIG. 19 and the like). Accordingly, the lower plate 322 is formed so as to bend toward the rear of the production operation unit 400 from the lower plate opening 326d on the left side surface of the plate unit 320 (the plate unit cover 326) bulging forward. The storage volume of the game ball is formed larger than the range seen from the front. In other words, the lower dish 322 is formed so that the lower dish second area A2 is larger than the lower dish first area A1. Thereby, when the lower plate 322 is viewed from the outside (player side), more game balls can be stored in the lower plate 322 than it looks.

  In the lower plate 322, the right half of the lower plate main body 325 in the left-right direction (lower plate second region A2) is, as shown in FIG. 41 (a), an effect operation unit mounting portion 326a (mounting space 326j) of the plate unit cover 326. The lower plate cover 340 covers the upper side of the portion of the lower plate main body 325 that protrudes into the effect operation unit mounting portion 326a. The lower plate cover 340 prevents the fingertip from touching the rear side of the production operation unit 400 (second production operation unit 400A) when the player inserts a finger into the lower plate 322 from the lower plate opening 326d. can do.

  The lower dish 322 includes a lower dish ball removal hole 322a penetrating vertically in front of the lower dish ball supply port 323c in the lower dish second region A2. The bottom surface of the lower dish 322 is inclined so as to become lower toward the lower dish ball removal hole 322a. The lower dish ball removal hole 322a of the lower dish 322 is closed so as to be opened and closed by a lid member 334 that is operated by pressing the lower dish ball removal button 333. In the normal state, the lower dish 322 has a lower dish ball removal hole 322 a closed by a lid member 334, so that a game ball can be stored in the lower dish 322. When the lower plate ball removal button 333 is pressed to open the lid member 334, the game ball in the lower plate 322 can be discharged from the lower plate ball removal hole 322a to the lower side of the plate unit 320.

  The lower dish ball removal hole 322a of the lower dish 322 is disposed in front of (in front of) the lower dish ball supply port 323c of the dish unit base 323 that forms the rear wall of the lower dish 322. Therefore, in the state assembled to the door frame 3, the lower dish ball removal hole 322a is located on the right side of the lower dish opening 326d of the dish unit cover 326 and behind the frame unit 415 in the rendering operation unit 400. It is invisible from the player (front) side.

  As described above, the lower plate 322 is formed in a shape in which the outer peripheral shape is a combination of a front side of a quadrangle extending left and right and a trapezoid whose front side is narrowed, and the bottom surface has a lower plate ball hole 322a. It is inclined to become lower toward Therefore, the game balls supplied from the lower plate ball supply port 323c into the lower plate 322 in the state where the lid member 334 is opened and the lower plate ball hole 322a is opened are directly in front of the lower plate ball supply port 323c. Immediately it is discharged downward from the opened lower dish ball removal hole 322a. Since the lower end of the lower dish ball removal hole 322a is located slightly to the left of the left end of the lower dish ball supply port 323c, the lower dish ball supply hole 322a is opened in the state where the lower dish ball removal hole 322a is opened. The game ball supplied from the mouth 323c to the lower plate 322 does not directly flow to the left side region of the lower plate ball hole 322a in the lower plate 322, and is discharged from the lower plate ball hole 322a. Become.

  On the other hand, since the right end of the lower dish ball discharge hole 322a is located to the left of the right end of the lower dish ball supply port 323c, the game supplied to the lower plate 322 from the vicinity of the right end of the lower dish ball supply port 323c. A ball | bowl will contact | abut to the site | part which forms the standing wall of the right side of the lower plate 322 in the main body standing wall part 325b. Since the standing wall on the right side of the lower plate 322 is curved obliquely with respect to the front-rear direction so as to face the direction of the lower plate ball removal hole 322a, the game ball supplied from the lower plate ball supply port 323c is When it comes into contact with the inclined portion, the light is reflected in the direction of the lower dish ball hole 322a, and is discharged from the lower dish ball hole 322a without going to the region on the left side of the lower dish ball hole 322a. (See FIG. 45).

  Thus, since the lower tray 322 of this embodiment is formed so as to guide the game ball supplied from the lower tray ball supply port 323c to the lower tray ball extraction hole 322a, the lower tray ball extraction hole 322a is formed. In a state in which is opened, the game ball supplied from the lower plate ball supply port 323c is immediately inserted into the region on the left side of the lower plate ball hole 322a in the lower plate 322 from the lower plate ball hole 322a. It can be discharged downward (dollar box). As a result, if the lower tray ball removal hole 322a is kept open, the game balls circulating on the lower plate 322 cannot be seen from the player side, so that they are paid out from the upper plate 321 or the payout device 830. An illusion that game balls and the like are directly discharged to the dollar box can be made to make it difficult for the game balls to feel annoying through the lower plate 322, thereby allowing the player to play a game (game ball driving operation). And a production image, etc.), it is possible to suppress a decrease in interest.

  In addition, the lower plate 322 of the present embodiment includes the main body standing wall 325b of the lower plate main body 325 and the lower plate covers 340 and 340A extending upward from the upper end of the main body standing wall 325b. Even if the game ball supplied to the inside of the lower plate 322 jumps and jumps up, it is possible to prevent the game ball from entering the mounting space 326j from the lower plate 322, and the game ball in the lower plate 322 It is possible to prevent the production operation unit 400 (second production operation unit 400A) from coming into contact with the rear side. Accordingly, the game balls supplied in the lower plate 322 and the game balls stored in the lower plate 322 are brought into contact with or pressed against the rear side of the production operation unit 400 (second production operation unit 400A). It is possible to prevent the rear side of the production operation unit 400 (second production operation unit 400A) from being damaged by the game ball.

  Furthermore, since the lower dish 322 is provided with a lower dish ball removal hole 322a in front of the lower dish ball supply port 323c, when the lower dish ball removal hole 322a is opened, the lower dish ball supply hole 323c is discharged. Since the played game ball can be directly entered into the lower dish ball removal hole 322a and discharged downward (dollar box), it is difficult for the game ball to reach the front end side of the main body standing wall portion 325b of the lower dish body 325. Can do. Further, since the bottom wall portion 325a of the lower plate body 325 near the front end of the lower plate 322 becomes higher toward the front, the game ball toward the front end side of the main body standing wall portion 325b of the lower plate body 325 is inclined. It will climb the bottom, and the moving speed of the game ball can be attenuated. Therefore, the impact when the game balls released from the lower tray ball supply port 323c into the lower tray 322 abut against the lower tray covers 340 and 340A and the main body standing wall portion 325b can be reduced and damaged. Can be difficult.

  In the present embodiment, the lid member 334 closing the lower dish ball removal hole 322a may be interlocked with the upper dish ball removal button 327. Accordingly, when the upper dish ball removal button 327 is operated, the lid member 334 is also moved to open the lower dish ball removal hole 322a, so that the game balls discharged from the upper dish 321 to the lower dish 322 are further removed. It will be discharged | emitted from the hole 322a to the lower dollar box. That is, when the upper plate ball removal button 327 is operated to remove the game ball from the upper plate 321, the game ball of the upper plate 321 is discharged to the dollar box even though the lower plate ball removal button 333 is not operated. Therefore, it is possible to cause the player to have a strong illusion that the game ball on the upper plate 321 is directly discharged to the dollar box, and the above-described effects can be further exhibited. Note that the simultaneous opening of the upper plate 321 and the lower plate 322 for removing the ball may be performed simultaneously by driving a driving source such as a motor or a solenoid, or may be performed simultaneously by a mechanical link mechanism.

  In the present embodiment, the lower plate body 325 and the lower plate cover 340 constituting the lower plate 322 are separated, but the lower plate body 325 and the lower plate cover 340 are disassembled. It may be an impossible one. Moreover, although the cover standing wall part 340a of the lower dish cover 340 has shown the example which stood up from the upper end of the main body standing wall part 325b of the lower dish main body 325, the bottom wall part 325a of the lower dish body 325 showed the bottom plate cover 340 The cover standing wall 340a may rise. Moreover, although the ceiling part 340b of the lower tray cover 340 showed the example extended substantially horizontally from the upper end of the cover standing wall part 340a, the ceiling part 340b of the lower dish cover 340 is shown in the main body standing wall part 325b of the lower dish main body 325. You may make it extend substantially horizontally from an upper end.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, although the example provided with the escape part 322b for avoiding the contact with the production operation unit 400 (2nd production operation unit 400A) of the lower plate 322 was shown, the escape part 322b is not provided. A lower plate 322 may be used.

  In the present embodiment, the lower plate 322 (the lower plate body 325, the lower plate cover 340, etc.) has a uniform surface shape without a through-hole, but a plurality of through holes through which game balls cannot pass are shown. It may have a perforated hole. Specifically, at least a part of the bottom wall portion 325a, the main body standing wall portion 325b, the cover standing wall portion 340a, the ceiling portion 340b, etc. of the lower plate 322 is formed in a fence shape having a gap through which a game ball cannot pass. It is good also as what was formed in the thing and net shape. It should be noted that a light emitter such as an LED may be disposed in the dish unit cover 326 (mounting space 326j) so that the interior of the lower dish 322 is illuminated (light-emitting decorated) through a fence-like or net-like gap of the lower dish 322. .

  In this embodiment, the lower plate 322 is formed by the lower plate body 325, the lower plate cover 340, the plate unit base 323, and the plate unit cover 326 (lower plate cover portion 326k) formed separately. However, the lower plate 322 may be formed by combining these four members in an appropriate combination. Specifically, the lower plate cover 340 and the lower plate body 325 are integrated, the lower plate cover 340 and the plate unit cover 326 are integrated, the lower plate body 325 and the plate unit cover 326 are integrated. What is integrated, one in which the lower plate cover 340 and the plate unit base 323 are integrated, one in which the lower plate body 325 and the plate unit base 323 are integrated, the plate unit base 323 and the plate unit cover 326 In which the lower plate body 325, the lower plate cover 340, and the plate unit base 323 are integrated, and the lower plate body 325, the lower plate cover 340, and the plate unit cover 326 are integrated. The lower plate cover 340, the plate unit base 323, and the plate unit cover 326 are integrated, the lower plate body 325, the plate unit base 323, and the plate unit. That the Tokaba 326 are integrated, that a lower tray body 325 and Shitasara cover 340 and tray unit base 323 and dish unit cover 326 is integrated, it may be like.

[3-3b-1. Ball guide part of lower plate]
With reference to FIG. 46, an embodiment in which the lower tray 322 of the tray unit 320 is provided with a ball guiding portion 322c for guiding a game ball from the lower tray ball supply port 323c to the lower tray ball removal hole 322a will be described in detail. . FIG. 46A is an explanatory diagram schematically showing an example in which the lower plate is provided with a ball guiding portion, and FIG. 46B is an explanatory diagram schematically showing an example in which the lower plate is provided with a ball guiding portion different from (a). It is a figure, (c) is explanatory drawing which shows roughly the example provided with the further different bulb | ball guidance part. In FIG. 46, the same components as those described above are denoted by the same reference numerals.

  The example of the lower plate 322 in FIG. 46A is substantially the same as the diameter of the lower plate ball discharge hole 322a in the portion between the lower plate ball supply port 323c and the lower plate ball discharge hole 322a on the bottom surface of the lower plate 322. A pair of sphere guiding portions 322c are provided that are separated from each other by a distance. The pair of ball guiding portions 322c are formed in a rail shape (protrusion) that extends back and forth in a state of protruding from the bottom surface of the lower plate 322. The lower plate 322 is inclined so that the bottom surface becomes lower toward the lower plate ball removal hole 322a. Accordingly, the game balls supplied from the lower dish ball supply port 323c into the lower dish 322 are guided to the lower dish ball extraction holes 322a by the pair of ball guide parts 322c without getting over the ball guide parts 322c, and the lower dish balls It is discharged downward (dollar box) from the hole 322a.

  The lower plate 322 in this example is similar to the above in that the lower plate ball supply port 323c and the lower plate ball are located on the rear side (lower plate second region A2) on the right side of the lower plate opening 326d of the plate unit cover 326. The hole 322a is arranged in a straight line in the front-rear direction. Accordingly, the lower dish ball supply port 323c and the lower dish ball removal hole 322a are located behind the covering wall such as the effect operation unit 400, the effect operation unit mounting portion 326a in the dish unit cover 326, and the front end side of the lower dish cover 340. It is not visible from the front.

  Thus, since the lower tray 322 of this example includes a pair of ball guiding portions 322c, the game ball supplied from the lower tray ball supply port 323c in a state where the lower tray ball removal hole 322a is opened. Can be immediately discharged downward (dollar box) from the lower dish ball removal hole 322a without entering the left side area of the lower dish ball removal hole 322a in the lower dish 322. And since the game balls circulating on the lower plate 322 cannot be seen from the player side, the illusion that the game balls and the like paid out from the upper plate 321 and the payout device 830 are directly discharged to the dollar box. By making it difficult for the game ball to feel the annoyance that passes through the lower plate 322, it is possible to concentrate the player on the game (gaming operation of the game ball, a production image, etc.) and suppress a decrease in interest Can do.

  In the example of FIG. 46 (a), the ball guide portion 322c is rail-shaped, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the game ball is lowered like a groove extending toward the lower dish ball removal hole 322a. Any material that can be guided to the dishball hole 322a may be used.

  Next, in the example of the lower plate 322 in FIG. 46 (b), the game ball released diagonally forward to the right from the lower plate ball supply port 323c passes through the right wall of the lower plate ball removal hole 322a in the lower plate 322. In addition to being formed in a shape that reflects in the direction of the lower dish ball removal hole 322a, a buffer portion 322d is provided at a portion where the game ball abuts. The buffer 322d is formed of rubber, foam or the like.

  Similarly to the above, the lower plate 322 of this example is also provided with a lower plate ball hole 322a in front of the lower plate ball supply port 323c, and the bottom surface of the lower plate 322 is lowered toward the lower plate ball hole 322a. It is inclined to become. Therefore. The game ball released straight forward from the lower tray ball supply port 323c is discharged downward (dollar box) through the lower tray ball removal hole 322a. On the other hand, the game ball released to the right front from the lower dish ball supply port 323c is reflected toward the lower dish ball hole 322a by the buffer 322d and discharged downward (dollar box) from the lower dish ball hole 322a. Is done. At this time, since the game ball abuts on the buffer portion 322d and reflects, the collision sound at the time of reflection is reduced.

  Further, the lower plate 322 of this example is also on the right side of the lower plate opening 326d of the plate unit cover 326 in the same manner as described above (the production operation unit 400 that is the lower plate second area A2 and the production operation in the plate unit cover 326). The unit mounting portion 326a and the lower plate cover 340 are disposed behind the covering wall such as the front end side of the lower plate cover 340 so that they cannot be seen from the front.

  Thus, since the lower tray 322 of this example includes the buffer portion 322d on the wall portion that reflects the game ball, even if the game ball is not released straight forward from the lower tray ball supply port 323c, The buffer portion 322d can be reflected in the direction of the lower dish ball removal hole 322a without any sound and discharged downward (dollar box). Accordingly, when game balls and the like paid out from the upper plate 321 and the payout device 830 are discharged to the dollar box, the collision sound of the game balls cannot be heard from the lower plate 322, so that the bag is also discharged directly to the dollar box. By making it difficult to feel the annoyance of the game ball passing through the lower plate 322, the player can concentrate on the game (game ball driving operation, production image, etc.) and suppress the decrease in interest Can be made.

  Subsequently, in the example of the lower plate 322 in FIG. 46 (c), a portion on the opposite side of the lower plate ball supply port 323c with the lower plate ball removal hole 322a in the bottom surface (bottom wall portion 325a) of the lower plate 322 therebetween. And a return portion 322e that reflects the game ball that has jumped upward from the lower dish ball removal hole 322a toward the lower dish ball removal hole 322a. In addition, the return part 322e may use the same material as the material which forms the lower plate 322, and may use the buffer material which relieves the collision sound at the time of reflection, such as rubber | gum and a foam. Moreover, the return part 322e is good also as what does not comprise the side wall of the lower plate 322, and may comprise a part of side wall (main body standing wall part 325b) of the lower plate 322.

  In the lower plate 322, the lower plate ball supply port 323c, the lower plate ball hole 322a, and the return portion 322e are arranged in a straight line from the rear to the front, and the lower plate of the plate unit cover 326 Behind the opening 326d on the right side (the rear side of the covering wall on the front end side of the stage operation unit 400, the stage operation unit mounting part 326a in the dish unit cover 326, and the lower dish cover 340). It is arranged so that it cannot be seen from the front. In this lower plate 322, even if the game balls flowing from the lower plate ball supply port 323c to the lower plate ball discharge hole 322a jump over the lower plate ball discharge hole 322a, the return plate 322e causes the lower plate ball discharge hole 322a side to And can be discharged downward (dollar box) from the lower dish ball removal hole 322a. Therefore, the same operational effects as described above can be achieved.

  In the present embodiment, the above-described ball guiding portion 322c and the buffer portion 322d may be appropriately combined with the lower plate 322. Thereby, there can exist an effect similar to the above.

[3-4f. Effect of production operation unit]
The effects of the effect operation unit 400 will be described in detail mainly with reference to FIGS. 61 to 63 and the like. FIG. 61 is an explanatory diagram showing a state where an operation button is pressed in the cross-sectional view of the effect operation unit of FIG. FIG. 62 (a) is a view of the rendering operation unit as viewed from the direction in which the central axis of the operation button extends, and a part of the operation button is cut away so as to be hidden by the first button decoration portion or the button frame of the operation button. It is explanatory drawing which shows a site | part, (b) is explanatory drawing which shows the site | part which is going to hide by the 1st button decoration part of an operation button, a button frame, etc. in sectional drawing of a production | presentation operation unit. FIG. 63A is an explanatory view showing the appearance of the rendering operation unit as viewed from the front, and FIG. 63B is an explanatory view of the appearance of the rendering operation unit viewed from the direction in which the central axis of the operation button extends. It is.

  The effect operation unit 400 of the present embodiment can show the effect image to the player according to the game state that is changed when the game ball is driven into the game area 5a of the game board 5, and the player can operate the game. It is possible to entertain and entertain the player in the presentation presented to the player by operating the button 410.

  The production operation unit 400 is formed so that the overall height is substantially the same as the height of the lower portion of the through hole 111 of the door frame base 110 in the door frame base unit 100 of the door frame 3. In addition, the production operation unit 400 has a full width slightly larger than 1/3 of the full width of the door frame 3. The production operation unit 400 is arranged at the center in the left-right direction below the game area 5a (the through hole 111 of the door frame base 110) in the front view.

  In the rendering operation unit 400, the upper part of the frame body 416 of the frame unit 415 is attached to the rendering operation unit mounting portion 326 a of the dish unit cover 326 in the dish unit 320. When the rendering operation unit 400 is attached to the tray unit 320, the bottom surface of the leg portion 442a of the relay board cover 442 serving as the bottom surface is spaced from the top surface of the bottom plate portion 326i of the tray unit cover 326 of the tray unit 320. Is formed. That is, only the upper part of the production operation unit 400 is attached to the dish unit 320 and is attached in a suspended state.

  Further, in the rendering operation unit 400, the front surface of the frame unit 415 (the surface formed by the inner periphery of the front end of the central opening 416a of the frame body 416) is parallel to the inclined surface of the front end opening of the rendering operation unit attachment portion 326a. As installed. As a result, the production operation unit 400 is configured such that the central axis CL of the transparent operation button 410 bulging forward in a curved surface shape (substantially spherical shape) is at an angle of 63 degrees with respect to the vertical line. It is inclined to move upward as it goes forward. Accordingly, when a player sits in front of the pachinko machine 1 in order to play a game using the pachinko machine 1, the head of the player is arranged above the plate unit 320 (the production operation unit 400). Since the game board 5 is located in front of the center of the game area 5a, the center axis CL of the operation button 410 passes near the head of the player. Therefore, when the player drops his / her line of sight from the game area 5a to the effect operation unit 400 (operation button 410), the operation button 410 is as close as possible to the front view (projection view from a direction parallel to the central axis CL). Thus, the operation button 410 and the door frame side effect display device 460 in the operation button 410 can be visually recognized in a good state.

  In the effect operation unit 400, the four guide boss portions 413c of the operation button 410 are slidably inserted into the four holding holes 431b of the base unit 430, and are urged forward by the operation button spring 438. In the normal operation state (the state where the operation button 410 is not pressed), the effect operation unit 400 causes the front end of the flange portion 413b of the button base 413 of the operation button 410 to be attached to the frame unit 415 by the urging force of the operation button spring 438. The frame body 416 is in contact with a portion near the central opening 416a on the rear surface.

  In the normal operation state, the rendering operation unit 400 protrudes forward from the central opening 416a of the frame body 416 in the frame unit 415 from the vicinity of the inner periphery of the button frame 412 of the operation button 410 to the center side (center axis line CL side). Yes. In other words, in the transparent button lens 411 that bulges forward in a curved surface shape (substantially spherical shape) in the operation button 410, a portion that protrudes forward from the inner periphery (inside) of the button frame 412 is formed. The frame unit 415 protrudes forward from the central opening 416a of the frame body 416 (see FIG. 51 and the like).

  Incidentally, in the present embodiment, the diameter of the central opening 416a of the frame main body 416 in the frame unit 415 is about 15 cm, and the button lens 411 (the front end) with respect to the central axis CL direction of the operation button 410 is the frame unit. It protrudes about 4 cm forward from the front surface of 415.

  When the player presses the operation button 410 of the effect operation unit 400 in a normal state, the operation button 410 moves backward along the central axis CL against the urging force of the operation button spring 438. Then, when the rear end of the operation button 410 comes into contact with the front surface of the unit base 431 of the base unit 430, the backward movement is restricted and the backward movement of the operation button 410 is stopped. When the player presses the operation button 410, the button lens 411 bulging forward in a curved surface shape (substantially spherical shape) is pressed.

  The operation button 410 has a very large outer diameter compared to the operation buttons for production provided in the conventional pachinko machine, so the periphery of the button lens 411 away from the center is pressed. There is a high possibility of being. More specifically, the operation buttons for effects in the conventional pachinko machine are attached so that the center axis extends substantially parallel to the vertical line, whereas the operation buttons 410 of the effect operation unit 400 of the present embodiment. Since the central axis CL is attached to be inclined with respect to the vertical line, when the player presses the operation button 410 from above as in the conventional pachinko machine, as shown by the white arrow in FIG. The part away from the central axis CL of the operation button 410 is pressed.

  By the way, the operation buttons for performance in the conventional pachinko machine are formed with a flat surface on which the player presses, so when the operation button is enlarged with the flat part being pressed When pressing the part off the center of the operation button, the surface to be pressed is tilted so that the pressed part is retracted first, and the operation button cannot be receded straight, There is a possibility that the pressing operation cannot be performed.

  On the other hand, the operation button 410 of the effect operation unit 400 of this embodiment has a curved surface shape (a part of a substantially spherical surface) in which a portion (button lens 411) pressed by the player bulges forward. Therefore, when a pressing operation is performed at a position away from the center of the operation button 410, the force is distributed over the entire operation button 410, and the operation button 410 becomes difficult to tilt, and the operation button 410 moves rearward straightly. Can do. Therefore, no matter which position on the front side of the operation button 410 is pressed, the operation button 410 can be smoothly retracted without tilting, so that the pressing operation can be reliably detected and the operation button 410 is pressed. The operation to operate can be fully enjoyed.

  In addition, the production operation unit 400 has the vibration motor 424 attached to the lower part of the front surface of the substrate base 421 in the decorative board unit 420, and as described above, only the upper part is a plate so that the production operation unit 400 is suspended. Since the vibration is generated by rotating the weight 424a by the vibration motor 424, the vibration is generated at a part farthest from the attached part because it is attached to the production operation unit attaching part 326a of the unit cover 326. The entire production operation unit 400 can be vibrated greatly (strongly), and the vibration can be transmitted to the player who is touching the production operation unit 400. In addition, since the vibration motor 424 is disposed immediately below the position where the player can relatively press the button (the position of the white arrow in FIG. 61), the player who presses the operation button 410 can be prevented. Strong vibrations can be transmitted, and the player can be surprised and entertained.

  Further, the production operation unit 400 is attached to the dish unit cover 326 in a suspended state, and the lower surface of the leg portion 442a of the relay board cover 442 forming the lower surface and the bottom plate of the dish unit cover 326. Since a gap is formed between the upper surface of the portion 326i and the lower surface of the leg portion 442a comes into contact with the upper surface of the bottom plate portion 326i when the operation button 410 is strongly pressed or hit, the frame The impact can be absorbed by the mounting portion 416e of the unit 415, the rendering operation unit mounting portion 326a of the dish unit cover 326, etc. being bent downward. Further, after the lower surface of the leg portion 442a contacts the upper surface of the bottom plate portion 326i, the downward movement of the rendering operation unit 400 is restricted, and the mounting portion 416e of the frame unit 415 and the rendering operation unit mounting of the dish unit cover 326 are restricted. It is possible to prevent an excessive force from acting on the portion 326a and the like, and it is possible to prevent the rendering operation unit 400 and the like from being damaged. Therefore, even when the operation button 410 is pressed or hit with a strong force when an effect of pressing the operation button 410 of the effect operation unit 400 is presented to the player, the operation button 410 or the effect operation unit Since 400 and the like are not damaged, it is possible to avoid interruption of the game due to the damage, to suppress a decrease in the interest of the player, and to increase the burden on the game hall side by making it difficult to break. Can be suppressed.

  As described above, the button lens 411 of the operation button 410 to be pressed by the player is formed in a curved surface shape projecting forward (a part of the shape of a substantially spherical surface), and thus a flat plate shape. Compared to the case, the strength and rigidity are high, and even if it is strongly struck, the impact can be distributed to the entire button lens 411 and is not easily damaged.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 63, the effect operation unit 400 includes a button lens 411, a frame side lens 417, a frame top lens 418, and an operation button interior decoration member 432 made of transparent members. Decorations such as first button decoration part 411a, second button decoration part 411b, first button decoration part 432f, and second button decoration part 432g formed on the back side are on the front side (player side) ). In addition, in the part where the uneven decoration is formed, the light is refracted in a complicated manner because the plate thickness is changed, so that the rear side is difficult to see through the part where the uneven decoration is formed. .

  The effect operation unit 400 includes the first button decoration portion 411a extending from the inner periphery of the button frame 412 to the center side of the button lens 411 of the operation button 410, and thus the uneven decoration of the first button decoration portion 411a. Thus, it is possible to make it difficult to see the rear at the outer peripheral portion of the portion that is inside the button lens 411. Behind the portion where the first button decoration portion 411a is formed (backward in the direction of the central axis CL), the inner peripheral surface of the body portion 413a of the button base 413 of the operation button 410 and the peripheral wall portion of the operation button inner decoration member 432 A gap between the outer peripheral surface of the operation button 432a is positioned, and the outer periphery of the operation button inner decorative member 432 is moved from the front side (player side) by the first button decoration portion 411a positioned in front of the gap. It can be difficult to see. Thereby, even if the operation button 410 that can be pressed is provided with the operation button decoration member 432 whose position is fixed, the appearance of the operation button 410 can be prevented from deteriorating. The player can be prevented from feeling uncomfortable, and the operation button decoration member 432 can be disposed in the transparent operation button 410 without any problem, and the appearance of the operation button 410 can be improved.

  More specifically, the effect operation unit 400 includes the first button decoration portion 411a, the second button decoration portion 411b, and the button frame 412 of the button lens 411 in the operation button 410. The unit base 431 and the decorative board unit 420 on the rear side (back side) on the outer side are formed so as not to be seen from the player side through the transparent button lens 411. Specifically, in FIG. 62, the cross hatched part surrounded by the alternate long and short dash line is hidden from the player side. As described above, since the operation button 410 includes the first button decoration portion 411a, the second button decoration portion 411b, the button frame 412, and the like, the outside and the back side of the operation button inner decoration member 432 are hidden from view. Therefore, the appearance of the operation button 410 and, consequently, the production operation unit 400 can be improved.

  Further, in the effect operation unit 400, the first button decoration portion 411a of the button lens 411 in the operation button 410 extends toward the central axis CL of the operation button 410 and is arranged in the circumferential direction. Thus, the second button interior decoration portion 432g formed on the front plate portion 432b of the operation button interior decoration member 432 disposed on the inner rear side of the operation button 410 extends in an odd octagonal shape centering on the central axis CL. As shown in FIG. 63, the concave and convex lines of the first button decorative portion 411a and the concave and convex lines of the second button decorative portion 432g intersect as shown in FIG. The decoration can be shown to the player.

  In addition, since the first button decoration part 411a and the second button decoration part 432g are separated from each other in the front-rear direction (the direction in which the central axis line CL extends), the effect operation unit 400 is separated from the first button decoration part 411a. By the second button interior decoration portion 432g, a three-dimensional geometric pattern with depth can be shown to the player, and the decoration including the inside of the operation button 410 can be enjoyed.

  Furthermore, in the production operation unit 400, since the first button decoration part 411a and the second button decoration part 432g are separated in the front-rear direction, if the position of the player's eyes moves, the unevenness of the first button decoration part 411a Since the degree of overlap between the line and the concavo-convex line of the second button interior decoration portion 432g changes, a moving decoration can be shown to the player, and the player can be entertained.

  In this way, the effect operation unit 400 provides the player with a three-dimensional decoration with movement by the first button decoration portion 411a of the operation button 410 and the second button decoration portion 432g of the operation button decoration member 432. Since it can be shown, a player's interest can be attracted strongly and it can be set as the pachinko machine 1 with high appeal power.

Further, the production operation unit 400 is within the operation button 410 (inside the button frame 412) and behind the operation button inner decoration member 432, the operation button left inner decoration board 433, the operation button right inner decoration board 434, and the operation button.

  The projector mounting member 505 has a bottom wall extending in the horizontal direction and a rear wall extending in the vertical direction, so that the projector 500 can be mounted in an inclined state so as to coincide with the inclination of the operation button 410. . A plurality of slits 505a penetrating in the front-rear direction are formed on the rear wall of the projector mounting member 505, and heat released from the projector 500 can be discharged to the outside through the slits 505a.

  A second rendering operation unit relay board 515 and a relay board cover 516 are attached to the right side surface of the projector mounting member 505 in front view.

[3-4g-5f. Upper cover and rotation detection sensor]
The upper cover 506 and the rotation detection sensor 507 of the door frame side second effect display device 460A will be described in detail mainly with reference to FIGS. The upper cover 506 is attached to the upper surface of the main body 451a of the unit base 451 in the second base unit 450 so as to cover the upper part of the operating gear member 475 of the screen unit 470. The rotation detection sensors 507 are for detecting the rotational position of the screen unit 470, and are attached to the lower surface of the upper cover 506 in a state of being separated from each other.

  Although not shown in detail, the two rotation detection sensors 507 are attached at positions that are separated from each other by a rotation angle of 90 degrees in the circumferential direction around the rotation axis of the screen unit 470. The detection piece 475c of the member 475 can be detected. Specifically, the two rotation detection sensors 507 are the detection piece 475c when the main screen 471 of the screen unit 470 is in the first position and the second position where the sub screen 472 is in the front. The time detection piece 475c can be detected respectively. Based on the detection signal of the detection piece 475c by these two rotation detection sensors 507, the rotation drive of the switching drive motor 492 of the rotation drive unit 490 is controlled.

[3-4g-6. Buffer unit]
The buffer unit 510 of the second effect operation unit 400A will be described in detail mainly with reference to FIGS. The buffer unit 510 is attached to the lower surface of the door frame side second effect display device 460A, and reduces the impact when the second effect operation unit 400A is hit from above, so that the dish unit cover in the dish unit 320 is provided. 326 is transmitted to the bottom plate portion 326i.

  The buffer unit 510 is in contact with an elastically deformable flat plate-shaped buffer member 511 whose upper surface is in contact with the lower surface of the projector mounting member 505 in the door frame side second effect display device 460A, and the lower surface of the buffer member 511. A buffer base 512 that is mounted so as to be relatively close to the lower surface of the projector mounting member 505.

  The buffer base 512 of the buffer unit 510 includes a flat plate-like main body portion 512a that contacts the lower surface of the buffer member 511, and leg pieces that protrude downward from the left and right ends of the main body portion 512a when viewed from the front and extend in the front-rear direction. 512b. The leg piece portion 512 b of the buffer base 512 is in contact with the upper surface of the bottom plate portion 326 i of the plate unit cover 326 in the plate unit 320 in a state assembled to the door frame 3.

  In this buffer unit 510, when the operation button 410 or the frame unit 415 is strongly pressed or hit, the projector mounting member 505 mounted on the base unit 430 compresses the buffer member 511 in the buffer unit 510. Move downwards. The shock is absorbed by compressing the buffer member 511. When the projector mounting member 505 further moves downward, the lower surface of the projector mounting member 505 contacts the upper surface side of the main body portion 512a of the buffer base 512. Since the main body portion 512a has a gap formed between the left and right leg pieces 512b and the upper surface of the bottom plate portion 326i of the dish unit cover 326, the projector mounting member is in contact with the upper surface side of the main body portion 512a. When 505 moves further downward, the flat plate-like main body portion 512a is bent, and the impact can be absorbed by the bending of the main body portion 512a. Further, when the projector mounting member 505 moves downward, the lower surface of the main body portion 512a bent downward contacts the upper surface of the bottom plate portion 326i of the dish unit cover 326, and further bending of the main body portion 512a is restricted. The impact is transmitted to the dish unit cover 326. In this way, when the operation button 410 or the frame unit 415 is strongly hit from above, the impact can be absorbed in multiple stages, and the mounting portion 416e of the frame unit 415 and the effect operation unit mounting portion of the dish unit cover 326 are absorbed. It is possible to prevent an undue force from acting on 326a and the like and to prevent them from being damaged.

[3-4g-7. Effects of the second stage operation unit]
The operational effects of the second performance operation unit 400A will be described in detail mainly with reference to FIGS. FIG. 74A is an explanatory view of the second effect operation unit as viewed from the direction in which the central axis of the operation button extends with the main screen of the screen unit facing forward, and FIG. 74B is a sub view of the screen unit. It is explanatory drawing which looked at the 2nd production operation unit from the direction where the central axis of the operation button has extended in the state which turned the screen ahead. 75 (a) is a cross-sectional view taken along line JJ in FIG. 74 (a), and FIG. 75 (b) is a cross-sectional view taken along line KK in FIG. 74 (b). FIG. 76 (a) shows the second rendering operation unit with the main screen facing forward, as viewed from the direction in which the central axis of the operation button extends, and is hidden by the first button decoration portion, button frame, etc. of the operation button. It is explanatory drawing which shows the site | part which is going to be shown, (b) shows the site | part which is going to hide by the 1st button decoration part of an operation button, a button frame, etc. in sectional drawing of the 2nd production operation unit of the state of (a). It is explanatory drawing. FIG. 77 (a) shows the second rendering operation unit viewed from the direction in which the central axis of the operation button extends with the sub-screen facing forward, and is hidden by the first button decoration portion, button frame, etc. of the operation button. It is explanatory drawing which shows the site | part which is going to be shown, (b) shows the site | part which is going to hide by the 1st button decoration part of an operation button, a button frame, etc. in sectional drawing of the 2nd production operation unit of the state of (a). It is explanatory drawing.

  The second effect operation unit 400A of the present embodiment changes the decoration in the operation button 410 or changes the operation button 410 according to the game state that changes when the game ball is driven into the game area 5a of the game board 5. The effect image can be displayed in 410 and the player can be entertained, and the player can be operated by operating the operation button 410 so that the player can participate in the effect presented to the player. is there.

The second rendering operation unit 400 </ b> A has an overall height that is substantially the same as the height of the lower portion of the through-hole 111 of the door frame base 110 in the door frame base unit 100 of the door frame 3.
The second presentation operation unit 400 </ b> A has a full width slightly larger than 1/3 of the full width of the door frame 3. The second effect operation unit 400A is arranged at the center in the left-right direction below the game area 5a (the through hole 111 of the door frame base 110) in the front view.

  In the second effect operation unit 400A, the upper part of the frame body 416 of the frame unit 415 is attached to the effect operation unit attachment portion 326a of the dish unit cover 326 in the dish unit 320. The second performance operation unit 400 </ b> A is attached to the dish unit 320 between the lower end of the leg piece part 512 b of the buffer base 512 of the buffer unit 510 and the upper surface of the bottom plate part 326 i of the dish unit cover 326 of the dish unit 320. In addition, a gap is formed. That is, the second rendering operation unit 400A is attached only to the upper part with respect to the dish unit 320, and is attached in a suspended state.

  Further, in the second effect operation unit 400A, the front surface of the frame unit 415 (the surface formed by the inner periphery of the front end of the central opening 416a of the frame body 416) is parallel to the inclined surface of the front end opening of the effect operation unit attachment portion 326a. It is installed to become. Thereby, in the second effect operation unit 400A, the central axis CL (see FIG. 67) of the transparent operation button 410 bulging forward in a curved surface shape (a part of a substantially spherical shape) is a vertical line. It is inclined at an angle of 63 degrees to move upward as it goes forward. As a result, when a player sits in front of the pachinko machine 1 in order to play a game using the pachinko machine 1, the head of the player is placed above the dish unit 320 (second effect operation unit 400A). Since the game board 5 is located in front of the center of the game area 5a, the central axis CL of the operation button 410 passes near the head of the player. Therefore, when the player drops his / her line of sight from the game area 5a to the second effect operation unit 400A (operation button 410), the operation button 410 is as possible as the front view (projection view from a direction parallel to the central axis CL). Thus, the operation button 410, the door frame side second effect display device 460A in the operation button 410, and the like can be visually recognized in a good state.

  In the second effect operation unit 400A, the button shafts 452 held in the four holding holes 451d of the unit base 451 in the second base unit 450 are slid on the four cylindrical guide boss portions 413c of the operation buttons 410, respectively. It is movably inserted and is urged forward by an operation button spring (not shown). In a normal state (a state where the operation button 410 is not pressed), the second effect operation unit 400A causes the front end of the flange portion 413b of the button base 413 of the operation button 410 to be in the frame unit 415 by the urging force of the operation button spring. The frame main body 416 is in contact with a portion in the vicinity of the central opening 416a on the rear surface.

  In the normal state, the second effect operation unit 400A has a central side (center axis CL side) from the vicinity of the inner periphery of the button frame 412 of the operation button 410 to the front from the central opening 416a of the frame body 416 of the frame unit 415. It protrudes. In other words, in the transparent button lens 411 that bulges forward in a curved surface shape (substantially spherical shape) in the operation button 410, a portion that protrudes forward from the inner periphery (inside) of the button frame 412 is formed. The frame unit 415 protrudes forward from the central opening 416a of the frame body 416 (see FIG. 67 and the like).

  Incidentally, in the present embodiment, the diameter of the central opening 416a of the frame main body 416 in the frame unit 415 is about 15 cm, and the button lens 411 (the front end) with respect to the central axis CL direction of the operation button 410 is the frame unit. It protrudes about 4 cm forward from the front surface of 415.

  In a normal state, when the player presses the operation button 410 of the second effect operation unit 400A, the operation button 410 moves rearward along the central axis CL against the urging force of the operation button spring. When the rear end of the operation button 410 comes into contact with the front surface of the main body 451a of the unit base 451 of the second base unit 450, the backward movement is restricted and the backward movement of the operation button 410 is stopped. When the player presses the operation button 410, the button lens 411 bulging forward in a curved surface shape (substantially spherical shape) is pressed.

  The operation button 410 has a very large outer diameter compared to the operation buttons for production provided in the conventional pachinko machine, so the periphery of the button lens 411 away from the center is pressed. There is a high possibility of being. More specifically, while the operation buttons for effects in the conventional pachinko machine are attached so that the central axis extends substantially parallel to the vertical line, the operation of the second effect operation unit 400A of the present embodiment is performed. Since the button 410 is attached with the central axis CL inclined with respect to the vertical line, when the player presses the operation button 410 from above like the conventional pachinko machine, the button 410 is separated from the central axis CL of the operation button 410. The part will be pressed (see FIG. 61).

  By the way, the operation buttons for performance in the conventional pachinko machine are formed with a flat surface on which the player presses, so when the operation button is enlarged with the flat part being pressed When pressing the part off the center of the operation button, the surface to be pressed is tilted so that the pressed part is retracted first, and the operation button cannot be receded straight, There is a possibility that the pressing operation cannot be performed.

  On the other hand, the operation button 410 of the second effect operation unit 400A of the present embodiment has a curved surface shape (a part of a substantially spherical surface) in which a portion (button lens 411) pressed by the player bulges forward. Therefore, when a pressing operation is performed at a position away from the center of the operation button 410, the force is distributed over the entire operation button 410, making it difficult for the operation button 410 to tilt, and the operation button 410 moves straight back. can do. Therefore, no matter which position on the front side of the operation button 410 is pressed, the operation button 410 can be smoothly retracted without tilting, so that the pressing operation can be reliably detected and the operation button 410 is pressed. The operation to operate can be fully enjoyed.

  Further, the second effect operation unit 400A has the vibration motor 424 attached to the lower front surface of the substrate base 421 in the decorative substrate unit 420, and as described above, the second effect operation unit 400A is suspended. Since only the upper part is attached to the production operation unit attachment part 326a of the dish unit cover 326, when vibration is generated by rotating the weight 424a by the vibration motor 424, vibration is generated at a part farthest from the attached part. As a result, the entire second performance operation unit 400A can be vibrated greatly (strongly), and vibrations can be transmitted to the player who is touching the second performance operation unit 400A. Further, since the vibration motor 424 is disposed immediately below the position where the player can relatively press the button (near the upper part of the operation button 410), strong vibration is applied to the player who presses the operation button 410. Can be transmitted, and the player can be surprised and entertained.

  Furthermore, the second effect operation unit 400A is attached to the dish unit cover 326 in a suspended state, and the projector mounting member 505 of the door frame side second effect display device 460A and the bottom plate of the dish unit cover 326. A buffer unit 510 is disposed between the upper surface of the portion 326i. The buffer unit 510 includes an elastically deformable buffer member 511, and a gap is formed between the main body portion 512 a with which the buffer member 511 is in contact with the upper surface and the bottom plate portion 326 i of the dish unit cover 326. Therefore, when the operation button 410 or the frame unit 415 is strongly pressed or struck down, the impact is caused in multiple stages by elastic deformation (compression) of the buffer member 511 or bending of the main body 512a of the buffer base 512. Can be absorbed, and it can be avoided that an excessive force acts on the mounting portion 416e of the frame unit 415, the rendering operation unit mounting portion 326a of the dish unit cover 326, etc., and the second rendering operation unit 400A or the like is damaged. Can be prevented. Therefore, even if the operation button 410 or the frame unit 415 is pressed or hit with a strong force when the player is presented with an effect of pressing the operation button 410 of the second effect operation unit 400A, the operation is not performed. Since the button 410, the second performance operation unit 400A, and the like are not damaged, it is possible to avoid the interruption of the game due to the damage, to suppress the lowering of the player's interest, and to make the damage difficult. An increase in the burden on the game hall side can be suppressed.

  In addition, since the button lens 411 of the operation button 410 to be pressed by the player is formed in a curved surface shape projecting forward (a part of the shape of a substantially spherical surface), compared to a flat plate shape. In addition to high strength and rigidity, even if it is strongly struck, the impact can be distributed over the entire button lens 411, making it difficult to break.

In the second effect operation unit 400A, since the button lens 411, the frame side lens 417, and the frame top lens 418 are made of transparent members, the first button decoration portion formed on the back side thereof. The decoration by unevenness, such as 411a and the 2nd button decoration part 411b, can be visually recognized from the front side (player side) (refer FIG. 63).
In addition, in the part where the uneven decoration is formed, the light is refracted in a complicated manner because the plate thickness is changed, so that the rear side is difficult to see through the part where the uneven decoration is formed. .

  Since the second effect operation unit 400A includes the first button decoration portion 411a extending from the inner periphery of the button frame 412 to the center side of the button lens 411 of the operation button 410, a plurality of the first button decoration portions 411a are provided. It is possible to make it difficult to see the rear at the outer peripheral portion of the portion that is the inside of the button lens 411 by the uneven decoration combined with the triangle. Behind the portion where the first button decoration portion 411a is formed (backward in the direction of the central axis CL), the inner peripheral surface of the body portion 413a of the button base 413 of the operation button 410 and the door frame side second effect display device A gap between the outer periphery of the screen unit 470 of 460A is located, but the first button decoration portion 411a located in front of the gap from the front side (player side) to the outside or rear side of the screen unit 470 This member can be made difficult to see. Thereby, even if the operation button 410 capable of being pressed is provided with the door frame side second effect display device 460A, it is possible to prevent the appearance of the operation button 410 from deteriorating. It is possible to prevent discomfort and to arrange the door frame side second effect display device 460A in the transparent operation button 410 without any problem, and to improve the appearance of the operation button 410.

  More specifically, the second effect operation unit 400A includes the first button decoration part 411a, the second button decoration part 411b, and the button frame 412 of the button lens 411 in the operation button 410, and the second effect display unit 460A. The second base unit 450, the upper shaft member 473, the lower shaft member 474, and the like that are on the rear side (back side) outside the outer periphery of the main screen 471, the sub screen 472, etc. from the player side through the transparent button lens 411. It is formed so that it cannot be seen. Specifically, in the first position with the main screen 471 of the screen unit 470 facing forward, the top and bottom outside of the main screen 471, the left outside of the peripheral decorative portion 472a of the sub screen 472, and the right of the peripheral decorative member 478 The outer part (the cross hatched part surrounded by the alternate long and short dash line in FIG. 76) is hidden from the player side.

  On the other hand, in the second position with the sub-screen 472 of the screen unit 470 facing forward, the outer portion of the annular peripheral decorative portion 472a of the sub-screen 472 (the cross-hatched portion surrounded by the one-dot chain line in FIG. 76). ) Is hidden from the player side. As described above, since the operation button 410 includes the first button decoration portion 411a, the second button decoration portion 411b, the button frame 412, and the like, it is difficult to see the outside and the back side of the main screen 471 and the sub screen 472. It is possible to hide, and the appearance of the operation button 410 and by extension, the second performance operation unit 400A as a whole can be improved.

  In the state of the first position where the main screen 471 is facing forward, the screen general portion of the sub-screen 472 is caused by the first button decoration portion 411a, the second button decoration portion 411b, the button frame 412 and the like of the button lens 411. 472b and the sub-screen decoration member 476, and the upper shaft member 473 and the lower shaft member 474 are difficult to see (see FIG. 76). This makes it difficult for the player to notice the presence of the sub-screen 472, the main screen 471 being rotatable, etc., so that when the screen unit 470 is rotated to switch from the main screen 471 to the sub-screen 472, A movement exceeding the player's expectation is performed in the button 410, so that a strong impact can be given to the player, and the player can be entertained and a decrease in interest can be suppressed.

  Further, in the second position where the sub-screen 472 faces forward, the upper shaft member 473 and the lower shaft are moved by the first button decoration portion 411a, the second button decoration portion 411b, the button frame 412 and the like of the button lens 411. The member 474 is difficult to see (see FIG. 77). This makes it difficult for the player to notice that the sub-screen 472 (sub-screen decoration member 476) can rotate, so that the impact when the sub-screen 472 (screen unit 470) is rotated can be increased. The player can be entertained.

  Further, the second effect operation unit 400A has a center side from the inner periphery of the button frame 412 in the button lens 411 that can visually recognize the door frame side second effect display device 460A disposed on the rear side of the operation button 410. The door frame side second effect display that is provided with a polyhedral first button decoration portion 411a that is a combination of a plurality of triangular surfaces within a predetermined width range and that is disposed on the inner rear side of the operation button 410. The device 460A includes a peripheral decoration portion 472a of a sub-screen 472 in which a plurality of square weights are arranged, and a peripheral decoration member 478. As a result, the triangle decoration (first button decoration part 411a) arranged on the front side and the square decoration arranged on the rear side (periphery decoration part 472a and peripheral decoration member 478) overlap so as to intersect. As a result, the player can show a complicated geometric pattern to the player, improve the appearance, and suppress a decrease in the interest of the player.

  Further, as described above, the first button decoration part 411a mainly composed of a triangle, the peripheral decoration part 472a mainly composed of a quadrangle, and the peripheral decoration member 478 are separated from each other in the front-rear direction. As the position moves, the overlapping state changes, so that the geometric patterns that appear to overlap can be changed and the moving decoration can be shown to the player, and the three-dimensional decoration with a depth can be displayed to the player. Can be shown to the player and entertain the player.

  Further, in the door frame side second effect display device 460A disposed on the inner rear side of the operation button 410, the screen unit 470 is rotated by driving the switching drive motor 492 so that the main screen 471 is directed forward, or the sub screen. 472 can be directed forward, and the decoration composed of a plurality of squares can be changed. More specifically, in the state where the main screen 471 is directed forward, as shown in FIG. 74 (a), the peripheral decorative portion 472a and the peripheral decorative member 478 are separated from each other in the horizontal direction and extend vertically. A geometric pattern decoration in which the decoration composed of a plurality of square pyramids arranged in a row vertically intersects the decoration composed of a plurality of triangles arranged in a ring shape of the first button decoration portion 411a of the button lens 411. Can be shown to the player. On the other hand, in the state where the sub-screen 472 is directed forward, as shown in FIG. 74 (b), the peripheral decoration part 472a is in an annularly extending state, and the decoration is composed of a plurality of square weights arranged in an annular shape. However, it is possible to show the player the decoration of the geometric pattern that overlaps the decoration made of a plurality of triangles arranged in a ring shape of the first button decoration portion 411a in the button lens 411. Accordingly, by rotating the screen unit 470, the decoration (physical decoration) of the operation button 410 can be changed. Therefore, the player's interest can be attracted to the operation button 410 by the decoration change, The change can cause the player to suggest the arrival of a chance, etc., and the player can be entertained to suppress a decrease in interest.

  Further, the second effect operation unit 400A has a screen (a main screen 471 and a sub screen 472) that can be switched on the door frame side second effect display device 460A provided in the operation button 410. Since the unit 470 and the projector 500 that projects and displays the effect image on the screen unit 470 are provided, an effect image completely different from the display of the effect image by the liquid crystal display device can be displayed, which has a strong impact on the player. You can entertain and entertain. More specifically, the screen unit 470 includes a semi-cylindrical main screen 471 and a sub-screen 472 having a disc-shaped relief-shaped sub-screen decoration member 476 in the center, and the center of the upper shaft member 473 and the lower shaft member 474. A rotation angle of 90 degrees around the axis is provided in the circumferential direction.

  In the door frame side second effect display device 460A, in the first position with the main screen 471 of the screen unit 470 facing forward, the semi-cylindrical center axis is positioned so as to extend in the left-right direction, When viewed from the front, it looks like a quadrangle (rectangle) extending vertically (see FIG. 74 (a)). When the effect image is irradiated forward from the projector 500 disposed behind the main screen 471, the effect image is projected on the rear surface of the main screen 471 (see FIG. 75A), and is translucent milky white. The effect image projected from the front side can be viewed through the main screen 471. Since the main screen 471 is formed in a semi-cylindrical shape with a smooth surface, the effect image is curved in a semi-cylindrical shape. Accordingly, the display screen of the general liquid crystal display device is flat, whereas the display screen of the main screen 471 is curved in a semi-cylindrical shape. It can be recognized that it is different from the above, and the player can be surprised, the player can be noticed on the main screen 471, and the entertainment image projected and displayed on the main screen 471 can be enjoyed be able to.

  On the other hand, in the second position with the sub-screen 472 of the screen unit 470 facing forward, the disc-shaped central axis substantially coincides with the central axis of the operation button 410, and when viewed from the front, the circular operation button 410 A sub-screen decoration member 476 that imitates a skull appears in the center (see FIG. 74 (b)). In this state, when the effect image is irradiated forward from the projector 500 arranged at the rear, the effect image is projected on the rear surface of the sub-screen 472. By the way, a flat and non-transparent sub-screen decoration substrate 477 is attached to the rear side of the sub-screen 472, so that the effect image (light) emitted from the projector 500 is applied to the sub-screen decoration substrate 477. As a result, the shadow of the sub-screen decoration substrate 477 is projected onto the center of the rear surface of the sub-screen 472 (see FIG. 75B). Therefore, on the sub-screen 472, the effect image from the projector 500 is projected and displayed on the outer peripheral portion excluding the central portion on which the shadow of the sub-screen decorative substrate 477 is projected. At this time, if the LED 477a mounted on the front surface of the sub-screen decoration board 477 is caused to emit light, the central portion of the sub-screen 472 can be illuminated and decorated by the light, and the sub-screen provided in the center of the sub-screen 472 is provided. The screen decoration member 476 can be decorated with light emission. Further, by causing the LED 477a of the sub-screen decoration board 477 to emit light, it is possible to make the shadow of the sub-screen decoration board 477 projected on the rear surface of the sub-screen 472 by the light from the projector 500 difficult to see. The entire side can be brightly decorated.

  The door frame side second effect display device 460A causes the LED 477a of the sub-screen decoration board 477 to emit light while the sub-screen 472 of the screen unit 470 is directed forward, and produces an effect image (moving image) forward from the projector 500.

A passive gear 4009 is fixed to the left end of the first drive shaft 4008, and a disk 4010 is fixed to the center of the first drive shaft 4008 (FIGS. 186 and 187). The disk 4010 also has a flywheel function for imparting rotational inertia.
In this embodiment, the rotating decorative body 4003 is a sphere (FIG. 185), has a decorative surface, and has a light source and various decorative bodies inside. And it is attached to the said disk 4010 in the position of the said storage recessed part 4005, and is arrange | positioned so that rotation may not be obstructed.
Reference numeral 4011 in the disk 4010 denotes an LED as one of decorative bodies.
Note that the rotating decorative body 4003 is not limited to a sphere, but a three-dimensional solid body is preferable.

In addition, a second drive shaft 4012 is pivotally supported on the left bearing portion 4006 so as to be rotatable by a bearing 4014 on the left side wall 4013 of the rotating body frame 4001 in parallel with the first drive shaft 4008. A drive gear 4015 is fixed to the right end of the side wall 4013 at the right end of the second drive shaft 4012. The drive gear 4015 meshes with the passive gear 4009.
Further, an engagement protrusion 4110 is formed on the right end surface of the second drive shaft 4012 (FIG. 188).

The drive unit 4100 is configured inside the casing 4101 and has a handle 4102 (FIG. 184). The casing 4101 is attached to the rotating body frame 4001 together with the rotating unit 4000.
Inside the casing 4101, a third drive shaft 4103 is disposed penetrating in the left-right direction, and is rotatably supported by left and right bearings 4104, 4105. An engagement groove 4121 is formed on the right end surface of the third drive shaft 4103.
A drive wheel 4106 and a mainspring 4107 are disposed on the third drive shaft 4103.
The drive wheel 4106 is a wheel provided with a winding groove 4108 whose outer peripheral surface has a trapezoidal cross section, and is attached to the third drive shaft 4103 via a one-way rotary clutch 4109. The third drive shaft 4103 has an engaging protrusion 4110 protruding leftward at the left end.
The drive wheel 4106 extends the groove bottom of the winding groove 4108 so that the string 4202 does not get entangled when the string 4202 is pulled out and unwound, or a concave groove corresponding to the string 4202 wound around the groove bottom is formed. Form it. Lubricating means may be provided in order to reduce friction between the string 4202 and the drive wheel 4106.

The one-way rotation clutch 4109 has an outer ring 4111 and an inner ring 4112 as shown in FIG. A plurality of wedge-shaped recesses are arranged in one direction of rotation on the outer peripheral surface of the inner ring 4112, and a wedge-shaped space 4113 is formed between the outer ring 4111 and the outer ring 4111. A roller bearing roller 4114 and a biasing spring 4115 are disposed in each of the wedge-shaped spaces 4113. The biasing spring 4115 biases each roller 4114 to the side where the wedge-shaped space 4113 becomes narrower.
In this structure, when the outer ring 4111 is rotated to the left as indicated by the arrow, the roller 4113 moves to the narrow side of the wedge-shaped space 4113, so that the rotational force (driving force) of the outer ring 4111 passes through the inner ring 4112 to the third drive shaft. On the other hand, when the outer ring 4111 is stopped and the inner ring 4112 rotates in the left direction, the roller 4114 moves to the wide side of the wedge-shaped space 4113 and rotates (slides), so the rotational force of the inner ring 4112 is Without being transmitted to the outer ring 4111, the inner ring 4112 rotates idly with respect to the outer ring 4111.
An inner ring 4112 of the one-way rotation clutch 4109 is fixed to the third drive shaft 4103. That is, the one-way rotation clutch 4109, the drive wheel 4106, and a string 4202 described later (pull string) constitute a drive unit including a one-way rotation clutch.

The mainspring spring 4107 is disposed adjacent to the drive wheel 4106, the inner end of the winding start is fixed to a fixing member on the casing 4101 side, and the outer end is engaged with an engagement rod 4116 provided on the side surface of the drive wheel 4106. It is attached so that it can rotate.
Specifically, the mainspring spring 4107 (FIG. 190) is housed in a spring case 4117 in the casing 4101. The spring case 4117 is a donut shape in which an annular outer wall 4118, an inner wall 4119, and a bottom wall 4120 are integrally formed by pressing, and one side (the drive wheel 4106 side) is open. The mainspring 4107 has an inner end 4107a fixed to the inner wall 4119 of the spring case 4117, and an outer end 4107b formed into a small ring shape so that the engaging rod 4116 can be fitted therein. The spring case 4117 and the mainspring spring 4107 are loosely fitted to the third drive shaft 4103 at the location of the inner wall 4119 and the outer wall 4118 is fixed to the casing 4101. The casing 4101 is exposed and is a part forming the outer surface of the dish unit 320.

The drive unit 4100 engages an engagement groove 4121 provided on the right end surface of the third drive shaft 4103 in the drive unit 4100 with the engagement protrusion 4110 located on the left end surface of the second drive shaft 4012 in the rotation unit 4000. And assembled to the rotating body frame 4001. The drive gear 4015 is engaged with a passive gear 4009 attached to the left end of the first drive shaft 4008 in the rotating unit 4000 (FIG. 185).
A handle 4102 is disposed opposite to the outlet 4201 provided in the upper front portion of the casing 4101, and the outer end of the string 4202 is fixed. The string 4202 has an inner end fixed to the drive wheel 4106 through the outlet 4201 and is wound around the winding groove 4108 of the drive wheel 4106 by the action of the mainspring spring 4107.

  The pulling direction of the handle 4102 (the direction in which the string 4202 is pulled) is inclined slightly to the left and downward with respect to the front-rear direction line of the dish unit 320 in consideration of the operability by the player's left hand. Therefore, a guide roller 4203 is provided for guiding the string 4202 on the handle 4102 side to the winding groove 4108 of the drive wheel 4106. Not only a roller but a fixed guide member may be sufficient.

  After assembling the driving unit 4100 to the rotating unit 4000, these are fixed to the front surface of the door frame base 110 using the rotating body frame 4001, and then the dish unit 320 is mounted. A peripheral decoration ring 4204, a transparent dome-shaped cover 4205, and a pressing ring 4206 are attached in this order to the opening on the front side of the effect operation unit mounting portion 326a of the dish unit 320, and the inside of the rotating decoration body 4003 and the dish unit 320 is shielded. Is done.

  When the performance of the pachinko machine 1 progresses and becomes a player participation effect, an operation promotion instruction such as “draw a pull” is given to the game board side effect display device 1600, and the player who responds to it pulls the handle. The drive wheel 4106 is driven by 4202, the first drive shaft 4008 is driven to rotate through the third drive shaft 4103, the second drive shaft 4012, the drive gear 4015, and the passive gear 4009, and the rotary decoration body 4003 rotates. On the other hand, when the driving wheel 4106 is rotated by the player, the mainspring spring 4107 is wound up via the engagement rod 4116, and energy for winding the string 4202 is accumulated.

When the string 4202 is not wrapped around the drive wheel 4106, the drive wheel 4106 cannot be rotated any more, but a one-way rotation clutch 4109 is disposed between the drive wheel 4106 and the third drive shaft 4103. Therefore, the rotating decorative body 4003 continues to rotate due to inertia.
When it is desired to return the drawn string 4202 to its original state, if the hand is released or the pulling force is released, the driving wheel 4106 is reversed by the returning action of the mainspring spring 4107 and the string 4202 is rewound. At this time, the rotating decorative body 4003 is not stopped by the function of the one-way rotation clutch 4109. As described above, the one-way rotation clutch 4109, the drive wheel 4106, and the mainspring 4107 linked thereto constitute a string rewinding device.
The operation of pulling out the string 4202 with the pull handle 4102 can be performed in the same manner as described above even when the string 4202 is stopped halfway until the string 4202 is completely pulled out and rewound from there.

When the player pulls the handle 4102 and rotates the rotating decorative body, the decorative pattern applied to the surface of the rotating decorative body 4003 sways, and the movable and fixed decorative body inside the rotating decorative body 4003 is rotated. It is activated by the movement of the contact with the rotation, etc., and changes rapidly such as blinking and light movement, resulting in a high impact production. In addition, since the rotation time and rotation speed of the rotating decoration body 4003 can be arbitrarily adjusted and stopped according to the player's intention, the player can enjoy the game with various changes in the operation of the handle 4102. be able to.
For this reason, if the said operation promotion instruction | indication is given at the time of the excitement of the game production which the pachinko machine 1 provides, operation according to the excitement of mood will be performed and the interest of a game can be raised. On the other hand, when the progress of the game is not expected and a change is desired and the operation promotion instruction is issued, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the game interest due to the stagnation mood.

[3-4i. Overall configuration of fourth embodiment of production operation unit]
FIG. 193 shows a fourth embodiment (fourth effect operation unit 400C) of the effect operation units.
The fourth effect operation unit 400C includes a later-described string direction detection mechanism and a selection effect execution mechanism that executes a game effect according to the detected direction in the configuration of the third effect operation unit 400B.
Detailed description of the same configuration as the third performance operation unit 400B is omitted, and the same reference numerals are used for the same components as necessary.
FIGS. 194 (b), (b), and (c) show the direction of the string 4202 when the player pulls the handle 4102 (referred to as the “string direction”), and the chain line is the limit area determined from the amount of string extraction and the string direction. Is shown schematically. FIG. 195 shows the positional relationship between the drive wheel 4106 from which the string 4202 is pulled out, the string direction detecting device 4128 and the handle 4102. FIG. 196 illustrates the relationship between the string direction and the direction detection switch SW in the string direction detecting device. FIG. 197 shows the structure of the string direction detecting device. FIG. 198 schematically shows a state in which the switch that operates depending on the string direction is different. FIG. 199 shows an example of the control unit.

The fourth effect operation unit 400C (FIG. 193) is attached to the center of the front surface of the dish unit 320 provided on the lower front portion of the door frame 3 so as to protrude toward the player. Similar to the third effect operation unit 400B, the fourth effect operation unit 400C includes a rotation unit 4000 and a drive unit 4100 inside the dish unit 320.
A rotating decorative body 4003 of the rotating unit 4000 is disposed in a round window provided in front of the dish unit 320 so as to be visible.
A handle 4102 of the driving unit 4100 is located outside the dish unit 320 and is coupled to the driving wheel 4106 and the string 4202 inside the dish unit 320.
When the player pulls the handle 4102, the driving unit 4100 and the rotating unit 4000 inside the dish unit 320 are operated to rotate the rotating decorative body 4003 inside the round window.
Note that a one-way rotation clutch 4109 is interposed between the driving wheel 4106 that is driven to rotate by pulling the handle 4102 and the rotating decorative body 4003, so that the player can stop pulling the handle 4102, Even if 4102 is returned, the rotating decorative body 4003 continues to rotate due to inertia.

Since the string 4202 is flexible and bends in any direction, the direction in which the player can pull the handle 4102 (string direction) is deformed toward the player centering on the outlet 4201 from the casing 4101 (dish unit 320). It spreads over a hemispherical range or more (FIG. 194).
That is, FIGS. 194 (b), (b), and (c) show the direction of the string 4202 when the player pulls the handle 4102 (referred to as the “string direction”), and the chain line is determined from the amount of string drawn and the string direction. A limit region 4207 is schematically shown.

For example, in a horizontal plane area (plan view) including the outlet 4201, the string 4202 can be pulled in the direction represented by the string directions A to E in FIG. Each of them is within a range of angles that the left arm and the left wrist of the player sitting in front of the pachinko machine 1 can take.
For example, the string direction A is almost the limit position when pulling to the right with the left hand, and there is a limit to the amount to be pulled even if there is a margin in the length of the string 4202. The string directions B and C are directions taken as a normal pulling operation, and the pulling amount 4102 has a limit on the pulling amount because the handle 4102 collides with the player's body side (body side). The string direction D is a case where the arm is separated from the body side and the elbow is extended, and the pulling amount is relatively large, and the movement of the arm and the hand is rarely restricted. In this case, some measures such as providing a stopper may be required so as not to disturb the person who plays next to the player. In the string direction E, the arm and wrist are moved in the front left / right direction.

In the front vertical region including the outlet 4102 (in front view), as shown in FIG. 194 (b), the string direction G is a directly downward direction, the string direction L is substantially directly above, and the string direction I is a lateral direction. The amount of pulling is limited for the same reason as described above.
In the side surface vertical region including the outlet 4102 (side view), as shown in FIG. 194 (C), the string direction G is a directly downward direction, the string direction M is substantially directly above, and the string direction Q is directly below. Similar to the above, the direction and the amount of pulling have their respective limits because of collisions with the arm, wrist, and body.
Considering the overall tie direction and pull amount that the player can take, including the tie direction located in the middle of the directions described above, the area (limit area) that can be reached by the handle 4102 is roughly from the door frame 3 to the game. It becomes a deformed hemisphere that bulges toward the person.
In other words, the player can draw a string between himself and the front surface of the pachinko machine 1 in the direction he / she thinks in the deformed hemispherical space (limit region) located to the left of the front.

The fourth effect operation unit 400C includes a string direction detection device 4128.
The string direction detection device 4128 is disposed at the outlet 4201 that is the outlet of the string 4202 in the casing 4101 (FIG. 195), and includes a plurality of switches SW1 to SW6 in an annular shape.
The plurality of switches SW1 to SW6 are radially arranged and fixed in a groove of a donut-shaped container 4132 (FIG. 197) in which an annular outer wall 4129 and an annular inner wall 4130 are connected by a bottom wall 4131, and an actuator 4133 of each switch SW is arranged. The inner wall 4130 protrudes from a slit 4134 provided in the annular inner wall 4130. A string contact piece 4135 is fixed to the protruding tip of each actuator 4133. In this embodiment, the string contact piece 4135 is obtained by dividing an annular belt plate material having a short cylindrical shape along a circle connecting the tips of the actuators 4133 into a space between them. In this embodiment, the interval is smaller than the diameter of the string 4202.

The string 4202 connected from the drive wheel 4106 to the handle 4102 usually passes through the center (center line) of the inner wall 4130 of the string direction detection device 4128.
However, depending on the direction in which the string 4202 is pulled (FIGS. 196 and 198), the string 4202 is deviated from the center line, contacts any one of the string contact pieces 4235 arranged around it, and the actuator 4133 of the string contact piece 4135 passes through the actuator 4133. One of the switches SW1 to SW6 is turned on.
This ON signal is processed by the control unit 4300 (FIG. 199) provided in the pachinko machine 1, and a selected game effect corresponding to the switch SW turned ON is performed.

  The control unit 4300 (control means) includes a main control board 4301 and a peripheral control board 4302. The main control MPU 4301a of the main control board 4301 executes a program to control the progress of the game. The main control MPU 4301a is a microprocessor with a built-in ROM that stores various processing programs and various commands for progressing the game, a RAM that temporarily stores data, and the like. Various commands relating to the state are transmitted to the peripheral control board 4302.

The peripheral control board 4302 includes a peripheral control unit 4303 and a liquid crystal / sound control unit 4304. The peripheral control unit 4303 includes a peripheral control MPU 4303a as a microprocessor and a peripheral control ROM 4303b that stores various processing programs, various commands, and various schedulers. The liquid crystal / sound control unit 4304 includes a VDP 4304a and a character ROM 4304c. The VDP 4304a has a sound control unit 4304b that uses a sound source IC 4303b that performs a high-quality sound and a sound ROM 44303d that stores sound information such as music and sound effects that refer to the sound source IC 4303b. Commands, signals, and data for peripheral control (such as sound commands) are exchanged between the peripheral control unit 4303 and the liquid crystal / sound control unit 4304. The peripheral control unit 4303 is a switch provided in the fourth effect operation unit 400C. It has a port through which signals from SW1 to SW6 are transmitted.

  The peripheral control MPU 4303a incorporates a plurality of parallel I / O ports, serial I / O ports, and the like, and receives various commands from the main control board 4301 via these ports. When received, based on the various commands, the game board side emission data for outputting lighting signals, flashing signals or gradation lighting signals to a plurality of LEDs etc. provided on each decoration board of the gaming board 5 is ramped. A game board for transmitting drive signals to the drive board 4309 from the drive board serial I / O port and for outputting drive signals to electric drive sources such as motors and solenoids for operating various movable bodies provided in the game board 5 Side motor drive data is transmitted from the motor drive board serial I / O port to the motor drive board 4310, or door side motor drive / light emission data is sent from the frame decoration drive amplifier board serial I / O port to the frame peripheral relay terminal board. 4305, and the frame decoration drive amplifier board 4307 via the peripheral door relay terminal board 4306. In this embodiment, the fourth rendering operation unit 400C includes a lighting signal to a plurality of LEDs, a blinking signal or a gradation lighting signal, and a driving signal to an electric driving source such as a motor or a solenoid for operating various movable bodies. Along with the door side motor drive / light emission data, the frame decoration drive amplifier board serial I / O port transmits the data.

  Further, the ON / OFF signals of the switches SW1 to SW6 provided in the fourth rendering operation unit 400C are the same as the signals from various boards mounted on the door frame 3, and the frame decoration drive amplifier board 4307, the peripheral door relay terminal. Input to the serial I / O port for detection of the peripheral control MPU 4303a through the board 4306 and the frame peripheral relay terminal plate 4305, and either ON or OFF in the storage area of each of the switches SW1 to SW6 set in the internal RAM of the peripheral control MPU 4303a It is memorized in the state. On the other hand, the peripheral control ROM 4303b is provided with a selection table for selecting a corresponding game effect from the states of the switches SW1 to SW6.

  The sound source IC 4303c extracts sound information from the sound ROM 4303d based on the control data (sound command) from the peripheral control MPU 4303a, and is provided in the main body frame 4 via the frame peripheral relay terminal plate 4305 and the peripheral door relay terminal plate 4306. Control is performed so that music, sound effects, and the like according to various effects flow from the speaker 821, and provided on the door frame 3 via the frame peripheral relay terminal plate 4306, the peripheral door relay terminal plate 4307, and the frame decoration drive amplifier board 4307. Control is performed so that music, sound effects, and the like according to various performances flow from the speaker.

The pachinko machine 1 has a player participation type program in the peripheral control ROM 4303b of the peripheral control unit 4303. Peripheral control MPU4303a can perform a player participation effect as one of the effects which show a hit and miss, for example, during the change display of a special symbol.
The player participation effect is executed during the special symbol variation display when a predetermined effect execution condition for executing the player participation effect is satisfied. As the performance execution condition, for example, execution of the player participation effect is determined by a lottery for determining the type of effect performed when the lottery result is a win or miss. It should be noted that the player participation effect is not limited to the special symbol change, but may be executed at another time of the game progression process (for example, during the big hit game).

When the player participation effect is started, first, operation promoting means for urging the player to operate the fourth effect operation unit 400C of the gaming machine 1 is executed. For example, in order to pull the handle 4102 of the fourth effect operation unit 400C, an operation promotion message “Close” is displayed on the game board side effect display device 1600 (liquid crystal display device) by an arrow with a picture of the handle 4102.
It should be noted that “squeeze” may be transmitted to the player by voice.
Then, when the player who has reacted to these operation promotion means pulls the handle 4102, the rotary decoration body 4003 in the fourth effect operation unit 400C rotates. At the same time, the drawn string 4202 comes into contact with one of the string contact pieces 4135 arranged in a ring shape of the string direction detecting device 4128 at the outlet from the casing 4101 fixed to the dish unit 320, and is connected via the actuator 4133. Then, any one of the switches SW1 to SW6 is turned ON.
The number of switches SW1 to SW6 is not limited to six. Moreover, these may be sensors without a mechanical structure.

If the switch SW1 is now turned on (FIG. 198), the signal is recognized by the peripheral control unit 4303 as described above, and a game effect corresponding to the switch SW1 being turned on is selected from the selection table. . Then, the peripheral control unit 4303 is a motor or solenoid that operates lighting signals, blinking signals or gradation lighting signals, and various movable bodies to the plurality of LEDs and the like in the fourth effect operation unit 400C via the frame peripheral relay terminal plate 4305. To an electric drive source such as
The same applies when the other switches SW are turned on (FIG. 198C), but the contents of the selected game effects are different in color, sound, movement or duration. Depending on the direction of the drawn string 4202, it may be considered that two adjacent switch contact pieces 4135 come into contact with each other and the two switches SW are turned on at the same time. Prepare options such as game directing.

In addition, since the operation of the handle 4102 by the player is usually not stable, it is conceivable that the direction of the drawn string 4202 changes in a short time. Although the cycle time of the peripheral control board 4302 is 2 ms, the signals from these switches SW1 to SW6 are held in the internal RAM of the peripheral control MPU 4303a in response to the switches SW1 to SW6 ON / OFF changing in a short time. It is necessary to set the appropriate time.
As described above, the string direction detection mechanism and the selection effect execution mechanism are configured by the control unit 4300 and the string direction detection device 4128 in the fourth effect operation unit 400C.

The player can select the direction of pulling the handle 4102 (string direction) almost as desired. Therefore, while playing the game, by changing the pulling direction in various ways, the color of the light source inside the rotating decorative body 4003 and the change of the effect image appearing on the game board side effect display device 1600 are enjoyed with the rotation of the rotating decorative body 4003. be able to.
On the other hand, such a player's performance participation is associated with a string direction and a special time such as a jackpot execution waiting time, and in that case, when a specific string direction (switch SW) is selected, When a sign is produced (for example, one of the on-hold display that is a succession of the on-hold display is lit), the player can feel as if the operation of the player has changed the on-hold state.
In this way, when the game effect of the pachinko machine 1 is linked to the player's advantageous progress, it is effective how the player operates within the deformable hemispherical limit area (described above) that can be operated. Since the player is immersed in the player participation effect, it is possible to suppress a decrease in interest in the game.

Note that the limit area in which the player can operate the handle 4102 is roughly a deformed hemispherical shape that swells toward the player as described above, and thus various modes in which the player operates the handle 4102 can be considered.
For example, in addition to simply pulling forward, the string 4202 is pulled out, and is rotated to draw a circle or figure 8 in front view around the pulling outlet 4201, or reciprocated in a certain direction. Or a swinging operation that gradually changes the reciprocating direction. Further, the rotation operation and the swing operation include a normal rotation and a reverse rotation.
The manner in which the switches SW1 to SW6 are turned ON / OFF by such an operation is unique to each other. The difference is determined by the control unit 4300, and a corresponding presentation is performed to attract the player's interest in the game. it can.
And, the above-mentioned rotation operation and swinging operation are noticeable because the player's movement is large and conspicuous, attracting attention in the hall and attracting other players to that model

In addition, when the player pulls the handle 4102, if the performance of the pachinko machine 1 develops in an advantageous manner to the player, the resistance is small. Can be informed to the player. This situation may appear only for a specific string direction.
Alternatively, a simple power generation function is provided in the drive unit 4100 so that when the string 4202 is pulled and the drive wheel 4106 is rotated, there is power generation according to the speed and pull amount when the string 4202 is pulled. It is also possible to display the amount of power generation in a gauge storage effect on a display device provided in front of the dish unit 320.

FIG. 200 shows the position of the fifth effect operation unit 400D in the pachinko machine 1. FIG. 201 mechanically shows the basic structure of the fifth embodiment (fifth presentation operation unit 400D) of the presentation operation unit. FIG. 202 shows the main part of the fifth effect operation unit 400D as a mechanism. FIG. 203 is a mechanism diagram showing the mode of the vertical operation. FIG. 204 shows the main part of the fifth effect operation unit 400D as a mechanism. FIG. 205 is a mechanism diagram showing the mode of the left-right operation.

The fifth effect operation unit 400D is different from the fourth effect operation unit 400C in the configuration of the rotation unit 4000, and the rotation decoration body 4003 rotates according to the string direction detected by the string direction detection mechanism. A rotation direction changing mechanism for changing the direction is provided.
Hereinafter, detailed description of the same configuration as the fourth rendering operation unit 400C is omitted, and the same reference numerals are used for the same components as necessary.

The fifth effect operation unit 400D (FIG. 200) is attached to the center of the front surface of the dish unit 320 provided at the lower front portion of the door frame 3 so as to project toward the player side. And it has the rotation part 4000 and the drive part 4100 in the inside of the plate unit 320 (FIG. 184, FIG. 185).
A rotating decorative body 4003 of the rotating unit 4000 is disposed in a round window provided in front of the dish unit 320 so as to be visible.
The handle 4102 of the drive unit 4100 is located outside the dish unit 320 and is coupled to the drive wheel 4106 inside the dish unit 320 by a string 4202 (FIG. 191).

In the fifth effect operation unit 400D, the rotating unit 4000 includes the rotating body frame 4001 bent into a U-shape and a mounting board 4002 fixed to the front side thereof, and the rotating decoration body 4003 is three-dimensionally mounted on the mounting board 4002. It is pivotally supported to rotate through a rotation direction changing mechanism that changes the direction of rotation by changing the rotation direction (FIG. 201). Note that the rotating decoration body 4003 has decoration on the surface, and has a light source and various decoration bodies under the control of the peripheral control unit 4303 inside.
The rotation direction changing mechanism passes through the sphere center Q of the rotating decoration body 4003, which is a sphere in the embodiment, and the horizontal axis as viewed from the player is x, the front and rear axis is y, and the vertical axis is z. In this case, a Z frame 4017 rotated around the z axis, a Y frame 4018 rotated around the y axis, and a swing shaft 4136 in the drive unit 4100 are provided.
The x-axis is the axis of the first drive shaft 4008, and the rotating decorative body 4003 is fixed to the first drive shaft 4008 with the sphere center Q on the x-axis. Therefore, when the first drive shaft 4008 rotates, the rotating decorative body 4003 also rotates.
A combination of the Z frame 4017 and the Y frame 4018 corresponds to the base block 4004 in the fourth effect unit 400C.

The Z frame 4017 has a U-shape when viewed from the front, and includes a horizontal portion (Z horizontal portion) 4019, a left Z vertical portion (Z vertical portion) 4020 rising from both ends thereof, and a right Z vertical portion 4021. A Z rotation shaft 4022 is provided at the center in the longitudinal direction of the Z lateral portion. The left Z vertical portion 4020 is provided with a bearing (left Z bearing 4023), and the right Z vertical portion 4021 is provided with a bearing (right Z bearing 4024). The left Z bearing 4023 corresponds to the left bearing portion 4006 in the fourth effect operation unit 400C, and the right Z bearing 4024 corresponds to the right bearing portion 4007.
The Y frame 4018 includes a horizontal portion (Y horizontal portion) 4025 and a vertical portion (Y vertical portion) 4026 that rises at a right angle to the rear end thereof. ing. The Y vertical portion 4026 is provided with a Y bearing 4027, and a Y frame 4018 is attached to the attachment substrate 4002 of the rotating body frame 4001 so as to be rotatable about the shaft 4027.

The Z frame 4017 and the Y frame 4018 are assembled by the Z rotation shaft 4022. A rotating ornament (sphere) 4003 is arranged in a space surrounded by the left Z vertical portion 4020, the right Z vertical portion 4021, and the Y vertical portion 4026.
The rotating decoration body 4003 is supported by the first drive shaft 4008 supported by the Z bearings 4023 and 4024 of the left and right Z vertical portions 4019 and 4020, and is fixed to the shaft. Also, the axis x of the first drive shaft 4008 intersects the axis y passing through the Y bearing 4027 provided in the Y vertical portion and the axis z of the Z rotating shaft 4022 at the spherical center Q of the rotating decorative body 4003.

Therefore, the combined Z frame 4017 and Y frame 4018 rotate so as to move the left and right ends of the Z frame 4017 up and down about the axis y, and the Z frame 4017 is z at each vertical rotation position. It is possible to rotate so that the left and right ends move back and forth around the axis. And the rotation center of these right-and-left rotation and back-and-forth rotation is the sphere center Q.
When this is viewed at the left end of the second drive shaft 4012 arranged in parallel with the first drive shaft 4008 and supported by the left Z vertical portion 4020, the locus becomes a disk shape as shown in FIG. A circumference and a region inside the circumference are a range where the left end of the second drive shaft 4012 is located.

A Z sector gear 4028 that rotates about the Z axis is fixed to a Z rotation shaft 4022 of the Z frame 4017, and a Z pinion gear 4029 is engaged with the Z sector gear 4029 (FIG. 202). The Z pinion gear 4029 is attached to a fixed position of the Y lateral portion 4025 of the Y frame 4018 and is driven by the motor ZM.
A Y sector gear 4030 that rotates about the y-axis is fixed to the Y vertical portion 4026 of the Y frame 4018, and a Y pinion gear 4031 meshes with the Y sector gear 4031 (FIG. 204). The Y pinion gear 4031 is pivotally supported at a fixed position of the mounting substrate 4022 and is driven by a motor YM.
The driving of the motor ZM and the motor YM is under the control of the control unit 4300, and a drive instruction is issued by the peripheral control unit 4303.

  A passive gear 4009 is fixed to the left end of the first drive shaft 4008. A second drive shaft 4012 is pivotally supported on the left Z vertical portion 4020 of the Z frame 4017 in parallel with the first drive shaft 4008, and a drive gear 4015 is fixed to the right end. The drive gear 4015 is always meshed with the passive gear 4009. A part of a later-described right universal joint 4032 is formed at the left end of the second drive shaft 4012.

The drive unit 4100 is the same as the case of the fourth effect operation unit 400C, and is configured inside the casing 4101 and has a handle 4102 (FIG. 184). The casing 4101 is attached to the rotating body frame 4001 together with the rotating unit 4000.
Inside the casing 4101, a third drive shaft 4103 is disposed penetrating in the left-right direction, and is rotatably supported by left and right bearings 4104, 4105. The right end of the third drive shaft 4103 constitutes a part of the left universal joint 4033.
A mainspring spring 4107 for rewinding the drive wheel 4106 and the drawn string 4202 is disposed inside the spring case 4117 on the third drive shaft 4103. Further, the drive wheel 4106 is attached to the third drive shaft 4103 via a one-way rotation clutch 4109, and the rotary decorative body 4003 is inertial even if the player stops pulling the handle 4102 or returns the handle 4102. Keep turning around.

The one-way rotation clutch 4109 has a basic structure shown in FIG. 189 and is wound when the string 4202 is pulled, and when the string 4202 is loosened, the driving wheel is energized when the wound spring 4107 returns. 4106 is reversely rotated so that the string 4202 is rewound onto the peripheral surface of the drive wheel 4106.
That is, the one-way rotation clutch 4109, the drive wheel 4106, and a string 4202 described later (drawing string) constitute a drive unit 4100 having a one-way rotation clutch.
A handle 4102 is disposed opposite to the outlet 4201 provided in the upper front portion of the casing 4101, and the outer end of the string 4202 is fixed. The string 4202 has an inner end fixed to the drive wheel 4106 through the outlet 4201 and is wound around the winding groove 4108 of the drive wheel 4106 by the action of the mainspring spring 4107.

The left end of the second drive shaft 4012 of the rotation unit 4000 and the right end of the third drive shaft 4103 of the drive unit 4100 are connected to both ends by a swing shaft 4136 constituting universal joints 4032 and 4033.
The swing shaft 4136 has a connection portion with the right end of the third drive shaft 4103 as a fixed rotation position P, and a connection portion with the left end of the second drive shaft 4012 as a rotation rotation position (for example, Ra, Rb, Rc, Rd or the inside thereof (FIG. 201). For this reason, the swing shaft 4136 can be expanded and contracted in the axial direction, and both ends thereof are constituted by universal joints 4032 and 4033.

The fifth effect operation unit 400D includes a string direction detection device 4128.
The string direction detection device 4128 is the same as the case of the fourth effect operation unit 400C, and is disposed in the outlet 4201 that is the outlet of the string 4202 in the casing 4101 (FIG. 195), and includes a plurality of switches SW1 to SW1. SW6 is provided in a ring shape, and when any of the switches SW1 to SW6 is turned ON, it is possible to detect in which direction the string 4202 is pulled (string direction). The ON signal of the switch SW is processed by the control unit 4303 of the control unit 4300 (FIG. 199) provided in the pachinko machine 1, and a selection game effect corresponding to the switch SW turned on by the control unit 4303 is performed. By the program provided in the peripheral control ROM, the motor ZM and the motor YM are driven in response to the switch SW that is turned on, and the rotation direction of the rotary decoration body 4003 (the direction of the first drive shaft 4008) is changed.

For example, if the switch SW1 is now selected, the peripheral control unit 4303 that recognizes the switch drives the motor YM to rotate the Y pinion 4031 and moves the Y frame 4018 to the right about the y axis via the Y sector gear 4030. Rotate. Then, the Z frame 4017 assembled with the Z rotation shaft 4022 rotates clockwise in a front view (FIG. 205), the first drive shaft 4008 and the second drive shaft 4012 tilt, and the left end of the second drive shaft 4012 Is the position of Ra (FIG. 201).
The tilt angle of the Z frame 4017, that is, the angle at which the first drive shaft 4008 and the second drive shaft 4012 can be tilted depends on the settings in the program, but the direction depends on the right universal joint 4032 and the left universal joint 4033. To the limit of performance that can transmit rotation between different axes.
When the switch SW4 is selected, the motor YM rotates in the reverse direction to rotate the first drive shaft 4008 counterclockwise, and the left end of the second drive shaft 4012 is set to the position Rc.

When the switch SW2 and the switch SW3 are simultaneously turned ON, the motor ZM is driven. Then, the Y frame 4018 maintains the position at that time, and the Z frame 4017 is rotated back and forth about the Z rotation shaft 4022. When the rotation position of the Y frame 4018 is vertical, the rotation direction of the Z frame 4017 is front and rear in the horizontal plane. Therefore, when the switches SW2 and SW3 are used simultaneously, the left end of the second shaft 4012 is the Rd position.
When the switches SW5 and SW6 are the same, the motor ZM rotates in the reverse direction and the left end of the second drive shaft 4012 is at the position Rb.
When only the switch SW2 is turned ON, the motor YM and the motor ZM are driven simultaneously, and the left end of the second drive shaft 4012 is set to the Rx position that is intermediate between the Ra position and the Rb position. The rotation direction and the rotation amount of each of the motor YM and the motor ZM are as follows. It depends on. The same applies to the switches SW3, SW5 and SW6.

The control unit 4300 (control means) includes a main control board 4301 and a peripheral control board 4302, and the configuration thereof selects the state of the switches SW1 to SW6 in the peripheral control ROM 4303b and the rotation direction of the rotating decorative body 4003 corresponding thereto. Although there is a difference in that the program to be stored is stored, the entire program is the same as in the case of the fourth rendering operation unit 400C, and is used here.
In short, the pachinko machine 1 has a player participation type program in the peripheral control ROM 4303b of the peripheral control unit 4303, and is executed when a predetermined performance execution condition for executing this is satisfied. As for the performance execution condition, as in the case of the fourth performance operation unit 400C, for example, the player participation effect is executed by lottery for determining the type of effect performed when the lottery result is a win or miss. To be determined.

When the player participation effect is started, first, operation promoting means for urging the player to operate the fifth effect operation unit 400D of the gaming machine 1 is executed. For example, in order to pull the handle 4102 of the fifth effect operation unit 400D, an operation promotion message “Close” is displayed on the game board side effect display device 1600 (liquid crystal display device) by an arrow along with a picture of the handle 4102.
Then, when the player who has reacted to these operation promotion means pulls the handle 4102, the third drive shaft 4103 of the drive unit 4100 in the fifth effect operation unit 400D is rotated, and the swing shaft 4136, the second drive shaft 4012 and the second drive shaft 4012 are rotated. The rotating decorative body 4003 rotates through one drive shaft 4008. At the same time, the drawn string 4202 comes into contact with any of the string contact pieces 4135 arranged in a ring shape of the string direction detecting device 4128 at the outlet 4201 from the casing 4101 fixed to the dish unit 320, and the switches SW1 to SW1. Any of SW6 is turned ON.
Then, the first drive shaft 4008 of the rotating decoration body 4003 is inclined according to the position of the switch SW that is turned on, and various rotation directions of the rotating decoration body 4003 are selected.
At this time, the third drive shaft 4103 and the second drive shaft 4012 in the drive unit 4100 have different axial directions, but these are connected by a swing shaft 4136 having both ends as universal joints. Can be transmitted to the second drive shaft 4012. Then, when the drive gear 4015 attached to the second drive shaft 4012 drives the passive gear 4009, the first drive shaft 4008 rotates.

The rotating decorative body 4003 rotates inside the round window provided in the dish unit 320.
In the case of the fifth effect operation unit 400D, as shown in FIG. 206, a band region 4034 is set on the surface of the rotating ornament 4003, and a large number of LED lines 4035 are arranged in this region 4034 in a direction transverse to the direction of the band. Has been placed. Each LED line 4035 is formed by linearly arranging small color LEDs 4036 (FIG. 206 [B]).
The band region 4034 is set so as to make one round along the equator of the rotation axis (first drive shaft 4008) of the rotary ornament 4003. In this embodiment, the LED lines 4035 are spaced at an interval of 5 ° on the equator. 72 are arranged.
The rotating decorative body 4003 includes a flashing device 4037 and a flash switch 4038 inside.

The flashing device 4037 is configured by combining a timer and a switch. Among the LED lines 4035, a plurality of LED lines 4035 (for example, 24 out of 72 lines at 15 ° intervals) are grouped in units of LED lines 4035. , And blink at every set predetermined time t.
FIG. 207 is a view for explaining how the plurality of LED lines 4035 that are lit and lighted at regular intervals appear to the player according to the rotational speed of the rotating decorative body 4003 in this situation. .
FIG. 207 shows a situation in which the LED line 4035 at the [A] position moves to the [B] position, where d0 is the interval between the plurality of LED lines 4035 positioned at the constant interval and t is the set time. When the rotation speed (d0 / t) of the rotating decoration body 4003 and the set time t are in a synchronized state, the rotation speed of the rotating decoration body 4003 is faster than the synchronized state, and conversely, it is slower than the synchronized state. Three are described.
Here, the rotation speed (d0 / t) and the set time t are in a synchronized state is a state in which the distance (on the equator) when the rotating decorative body 4003 rotates in the t time is the fixed interval d0.

In FIG. 207, in the synchronized state, the LED line 4035 that is lit at [A] is moved (d0) to [B] after t time, but is turned on, but the afterimage immediately before [B] is turned on. Since they overlap, it seems to the player that the LED line 4035 at the point [A] stops. Since this occurs in all the LED lines 4035 that are turned on at the same interval, the ring shape that the LED lines 4035 form on the peripheral surface of the rotating decoration body 4003 even though the rotating decoration 4003 is rotating. Seems to stop.
When the rotational speed of the rotating decorative body 4003 is faster than the synchronized state (Δt), the LED line 4035 that is lit at the position [A] precedes by [Delta] d corresponding to the above Δt from the position [B] after t time (d1). Lights on. For this reason, the LED line 4035 appears to be shifted by Δd to the player, and this shift increases as the rotational speed of the rotating decorative body 4003 increases, so when the string 4202 is pulled to increase the rotational decorative body 4003, The ring shape appears to rotate slowly in the direction of travel on the surface of the rotating decorative body 4003.
On the other hand, if it is later than the synchronized state (Δt), the LED line 4035 that is lit at [A] is turned on at a position (d2) that is retracted by Δd corresponding to Δt from [B] after t time. Is done. For this reason, the player sees the LED line 4035 at a position retracted by Δd, and this deviation increases as the rotation of the rotating decorative body 4003 slows down. The ring shape appears to rotate slowly in the backward direction on the surface of the rotating decorative body 4003.
Note that the flash switch 4038 turns on the flash lamp 4039 disposed inside the rotating decorative body 4003, and turns on the flash lamp 4039 during "synchronization" described later.

Specifically, in the player participation effect of the pachinko machine 1, when the player pulls the handle, the rotating decorative body 4003 rotates, and the LED line 4035 that is lit in the belt region 4034 also rotates.
At this time, if the interval between the LED lines 4035 is 15 °, when the rotational speed of the rotating decorative body 4003 is 15 ° / t, the set time t coincides with the time during which the LED line 4035 moves through the set interval ( Synchronize). Then, although the LED line 4035 is moving, the timing at which the LED line 4035 shines coincides with the position of the LED line 4035, and each shining LED line 4035 appears to stop. Further, when the rotation speed is higher (faster) than 15 ° / t, the LED line 4035 seems to advance in the rotation direction of the rotating decorative body 4003, and when it is lower than 15 ° / t, the LED line 4035 moves backward. Looks like going.
This situation also appears at a position where the rotational speed of the rotating decorative body 4003 is a multiple of 15 °, so that the LED line 4035 precedes or retreats from a position that appears to stop during the rotation of the rotating decorative body 4003. It looks like.
Then, the state in which the LED line 4035 is stopped is determined by the amount of light received by the photoelectric switch provided in the flash switch 4038, and the flash lamp 4039 in the rotating decorative body 4003 is turned on.

For example, a player who has rotated the rotating decorative body 4003 in response to an operation promotion instruction “shake a puller” when the effect state of the player participation effect is hot, the LED line 4035 leads or retreats. Then, the flash lamp 4039 is turned on and the rotating decorative body 4003 shines greatly, so that the user can feel the excitement of approaching the jackpot and be immersed in the game.
The LED line 4035 may be not only a straight line but also a curve, a simple pattern, or a character.

The time t set in the flashing device 4037 is changed to change the rotational speed of the rotating decorative body 4003 leading to the synchronization, or by changing the number of LED lines 4035 flashing all at once, so that the LED lines 4035 stopped at the time of the synchronization are changed. You can change the number and number of pictures.
When the band region 4034 is formed on a dot surface by LEDs in which small LEDs are arranged vertically and horizontally, and the blinking device 4037 is not blinking in units of lines, for example, characters are represented as one LED dot unit, When the rotation decoration body 4003 rotates rapidly, characters that could not be read can be determined during synchronization, and a simple message can be transmitted.
The message is advantageous to the player. In addition, when the flash lamp 4039 is turned on, the player is stimulated by the atmosphere and proceeds with the expectation.

  As described above, the rotation decoration body 4003 can change the rotation direction, so that the color of the LED line 4035 can be changed according to the rotation direction, or the mode of the LED line 4035 (for example, the pattern at the time of synchronization) can be changed. it can. In addition, when the rotating decoration body 4003 has N01, N02, and N03 rotation directions, the player participation effect is started from the rotation of N01. Further, it is possible to encourage the rotation of N03, and when this is achieved, it is set to produce an advantageous effect for the player together with the flash, and the player can be drawn into the player participation effect.

Since the string 4202 is flexible and bends in any direction, the direction in which the player can pull the handle 4102 (string direction) is to the player side with the outlet 4201 from the casing 4101 (dish unit 320) as the center. It extends in the range of a deformed hemisphere or more (FIG. 194). Although the player is within this range (limit region), the player can pull the string 4202 in his / her direction, turn on any of the switches SW1 to SW6, and select the rotation direction of the rotating decoration body 4003.
For this reason, the player can enjoy the game by operating the handle variously in order to achieve the above setting in the hope that it will be an advantageous performance.

  Further, a simple electromagnetic brake is attached to the third drive shaft 4103 so that a certain resistance is applied to the string 4202 when the rotational direction of the rotary ornament 4003 is specific. When the game effect becomes hot, if the string resistance is strong or conversely lightened, the player memorizes such a special feeling. If the next time you pull the pull, if the resistance is higher than before, you will have an expectation that the jackpot will be close, and you will be excited.

  A large number of individual patterns (human faces, animals, dolls, etc.) are arranged on the surface of the rotating decorative body 4003, and a specific pattern, for example, an interior is illuminated by operating the handle 4102. Things can be stored in a certain area on the front. For this purpose, it is necessary to first operate the handle 4102 to find a target picture, and to place the picture in the predetermined area. This operation is quite difficult unless the force to pull the string 4202 and the string direction is concentrated. In addition, if the production of the pachinko machine 1 is adapted to the development that is advantageous to the player in accordance with this, the expectation regarding this operation increases.

[3-8. Effect of door frame]
The effects of the door frame 3 will be described. The door frame 3 in the pachinko machine 1 according to the present embodiment has the through-holes 111 penetrating through the door frame base 110 in the door frame base unit 100 in the front and rear directions and in the vertical and horizontal directions as compared with the conventional pachinko machine. The vertical height of the plate unit 320 and the door frame top unit 570 is reduced in accordance with the enlargement of the through-hole 111, and the horizontal width of the door frame left side unit 530 and the door frame right side unit 550 Is made smaller. Thereby, the front surface of the game board 5 (game area 5a) attached to the main body frame 4 can be seen as widely as possible from the player (front) through the through-hole 111 (glass unit 190). This corresponds to the game board 5 having a wide game area 5a.

  The door frame 3 has a production operation unit 400 (second production operation unit 400A) having a large hemispherical operation button 410 at the center in the left-right direction of the dish unit 320 bulging forward on the lower side of the through-hole 111. The front surface of the lower half (the lower side of the upper plate 321) on both the left and right sides of the production operation unit 400 (the front surface of the front plate lower decorative portion 326c) is recessed so as to bend backward (the plate unit). 320, a shape curved in a concave shape so that the front surfaces on both the left and right sides of the rendering operation unit 400 are positioned rearward than a straight line connecting the front ends of the left and right ends of 320 and the front ends of the left and right ends of the rendering operation unit 400. ing. As a result, the production operation unit 400 attached to the front surface at the center in the left-right direction of the plate unit 320 appears to protrude greatly forward, so that the production operation unit 400 is highlighted and shown to the player. It is possible to pay attention to the production operation unit 400.

  The door frame 3 tilts the presentation operation unit 400 disposed on the front surface of the dish unit 320 below the through-hole 111 so that the large hemispherical transparent operation button 410 faces obliquely upward and forward. Therefore, when the player sits in front of the pachinko machine 1, the operation button 410 faces the player's head (face), and the player drops his line of sight and moves the rendering operation unit 400. When viewed, the operation button 410 can be seen in a state substantially close to the front, the large and round operation button 410 can be visually recognized strongly, and an expectation can be enhanced for the effect using the operation button 410.

Any part of the operation button 410 can be touched, and “fast pressing” of the operation button 410 can be performed relatively easily. In addition, since the operation button 410, which has a large diameter and bulges forward, is mounted in an inclined state, it can be pressed from above like the operation buttons of a conventional pachinko machine, and can be operated to the left or right. The operation button 410 can be operated satisfactorily or from the front, and the operation buttons 410 having good operability can be more enjoyed.

  In addition, the door frame 3 is mounted with the stage operation unit 400 in a suspended state by the dish unit 320 and includes a vibration motor 424 that generates vibration at the lower part of the stage operation unit 400. When vibration is generated by rotating the vibration motor 424 in accordance with the state, strong vibration can be transmitted to the player's hand touching the upper part of the operation button 410, and the player can be surprised by the operation button. The production using 410 can be further enjoyed.

  Furthermore, since the door frame 3 is provided with a large operation button 410 (production operation unit 400) over the entire height of the plate unit 320 in the center of the front surface of the plate unit 320, the upper plate 321 is compared with a conventional pachinko machine. Because the lower plate 322 underneath is inconspicuous, it can make it easier for players who are familiar with conventional pachinko machines to recognize that they are clearly different, and appeal to the players strongly. A powerful pachinko machine 1 can be obtained.

  Further, the door frame 3 is formed so that the lower plate 322 wraps around the rear side of the production operation unit 400 with respect to the lower plate opening 326d that is opened on the left side of the production operation unit 400 on the front surface of the plate unit 320. Therefore, the volume of the lower plate 322 can be increased with respect to the size of the lower plate opening 326d, and a sufficient number of game balls can be secured in the lower plate 322. In addition, since the rear part of the lower plate 322 wraps around to the rear side of the production operation unit 400, when the player puts his left hand into the lower plate 322 or puts his / her finger on the lower plate opening 326d. Since it becomes difficult for the fingertips to touch the wall behind the lower plate 322, it is possible to make it difficult to give the player a sense of incongruity, and it is possible to suppress a decrease in interest in the game and to increase the size of the lower plate opening 326d. Compared to this, it can be recognized by tactile sense that the volume of the lower plate 322 is large.

  Further, the door frame 3 has a lower tray ball supply port 323c through which game balls from the upper plate 321 are discharged to the lower plate 322, and a bottom for pulling out the game balls of the lower plate 322 into a dollar box or the like below the plate unit 320. The countersunk hole 322a is arranged linearly in the front-rear direction, and is arranged on the right outside of the lower dish opening 326d in the front view (on the right side of the left end of the frame unit 415 of the rendering operation unit 400). That is, the lower tray ball supply port 323c and the lower tray ball removal hole 322a are connected to the rendering operation unit 400, the rendering operation unit mounting portion 326a (the right outer side of the lower tray opening 326d) in the tray unit cover 326, and the front end of the lower tray cover 340. Since the lower dish ball supply port 323c and the lower dish ball removal hole 322a are not visible from the player side, the appearance of the dish unit 320 (pachinko machine 1) can be refreshed. The appearance of the pachinko machine 1 can be improved.

  Further, the door frame 3 has a lower plate ball hole 322a opened in the lower plate 322 because the lower plate ball hole 322a is disposed in front of the lower plate ball supply port 323c (directly in front). Then, as soon as the game ball released from the upper plate 321 or the like to the lower plate 322 enters the lower plate 322, it is discharged from the lower plate ball removal hole 322a to a lower dollar box or the like. At this time, since the player cannot see the lower tray ball supply port 323c and the lower tray ball removal hole 322a, the flow of the game balls discharged from the upper tray 321 and the like through the lower tray 322 to the dollar box is also included. I can't see it. Accordingly, the player can have an illusion that the game ball on the upper plate 321 or the game ball discharged from the payout device 830 in a state where the upper plate 321 is full is directly discharged to the dollar box. Therefore, it is possible to make it difficult for the game ball to feel the annoyance passing through the lower plate 322, and to reduce the interest by dedicating the player to the game (gaming operation of the game ball, production image, etc.). it can.

  In addition, the door frame 3 has a lower plate ball removal hole 322a disposed at the front left side of the lower plate ball supply port 323c in the lower plate 322, and the lower plate 322 standing on the right side of the lower plate ball removal hole 322a. Since the raised wall portion is obliquely curved so as to face the direction of the lower dish ball removal hole 322a, the game balls supplied from the lower dish ball supply port 323c to the lower dish 322 are directly It can be guided to the punching hole 322a, or can be indirectly guided to the lower dish ball punching hole 322a by being reflected on the right wall. Thereby, in a state where the lower dish ball hole 322a remains open, the game ball supplied from the lower dish ball supply port 323c to the lower dish 322 is an area on the left side of the lower dish ball hole 322a in the lower dish 322. Since it can be discharged downward from the lower tray ball removal hole 322a without entering the lower tray first region A1, the lower side of the lower plate 322 is displayed without showing the player the game balls circulating in the lower tray 322. The game ball can be discharged downward (dollar box), and the same effects as described above can be achieved.

  Further, the door frame 3 includes a lower plate opening 326d of the plate unit cover 326 facing the front of the lower plate 322 between the effect operation unit mounting portion 326a (the effect operation unit 400) and the lower speaker opening 326e. Therefore, even if the player puts his hand on the lower plate opening 326d or puts his hand on the lower plate 322, the front of the lower speaker port 326e is not blocked by the player's hand. The sound from the speaker 921 in the substrate unit 900 can be output well forward, and the sound from the pachinko machine 1 can be enjoyed. In addition, when the player puts his hand in the lower plate 322 or approaches the lower plate 322, the player can feel the vibration caused by the heavy bass from the speaker 921 output forward from the lower speaker port 326e, and the game Entertainers and suppress the decline of interest.

  Moreover, since the door frame 3 is provided with the door frame right side unit 550 which is plate-like and protrudes forward from the right side of the through-hole 111, when the pachinko machine 1 is installed in the island facility of the game hall, the door Since the frame right side unit 550 can exert an effect such as a partition between the pachinko machine adjacent to the right side, the player who plays with the pachinko machine 1 can play in a private room. The game can be played in a relaxed atmosphere without bothering other players around you.

  Furthermore, the door frame 3 can be light-decorated on the front end and both left and right sides of the door frame right side unit 550 that is plate-like and protrudes greatly forward, so that the game hall installed with the pachinko machines 1 arranged side by side Even if the pachinko machine 1 is not located in front of the pachinko machine 1, the presence of the pachinko machine 1 can be informed from a distance such as from the side along the island facility, and the pachinko machine has a high appeal to the player. Machine 1 can be used.

  Further, the door frame 3 includes a top middle decorative member 576 that protrudes forward at the center in the left-right direction in the door frame top unit 570 on the upper side of the through-hole 111, and the front surfaces on both the left and right sides of the top middle decorative member 576, A shape that is recessed so as to squeeze backward (the top middle decorative member in the door frame top unit 570 rather than the straight line connecting the front ends of the left and right ends of the door frame top unit 570 and the front ends of the left and right ends of the top middle decorative member 576 576 is formed in a concavely curved shape so that the front surfaces of the left and right sides of 576 are located rearward. As a result, only the top middle decorative member 576 of the door frame top unit 570 appears to protrude greatly forward, so that the player can make the top middle decorative member 576 stand out and emphasized. The medium decorative member 576 can be strongly noted.

  By the way, a pair of upper speakers spaced apart from each other are provided on the upper part of the door frame in the conventional pachinko machine, and the two upper speakers are conspicuous. On the other hand, the door frame 3 according to the present embodiment has a pair of upper portions whose front surfaces are protected by speaker covers 575 made of punching metal at both left and right ends in the door frame top unit 570 attached to the upper side of the through-hole 111. In addition to the speaker 573, a top left decorative lens member 579 and a top right decorative lens member 580 extending from the left and right sides of the center top middle decorative member 576 to the left and right ends through the front of the speaker cover 575 are provided. The entire front surface of the left decorative lens member 579 and the top right decorative lens member 580 can be decorated with light emission. Thereby, since the front upper part of the door frame 3 can be decorated as a whole, the pair of upper speakers 573 become inconspicuous in the upper part of the door frame 3, and the decoration clearly different from the conventional pachinko machine is given. The pachinko machine 1 can be recognized by the player at a glance, and the player can enjoy a high-quality stereo sound by the pair of upper speakers 573. it can.

When the movable piece member rear 826 passes the shaft member 824 through the shaft hole 826b, the weight attaching portion 826e protruding from the outer periphery of the connecting portion 826d is rotated by its own weight so as to be positioned immediately below the shaft hole 826b. Then, the movable piece 826a extends obliquely downward from the portion of the shaft hole 826b. Therefore, in the assembled state of the ball guiding unit 820, the connecting portion 826d is inserted into the notch 822g of the rear case 822, and the lower end of the movable piece 826a protrudes into the guiding passage 822c, and the stopper piece 826g It will be in the state contact | abutted to the outer wall of the guidance path 822c (detection part 822e). When the stopper piece 826g abuts against the outer wall of the guide passage 822c, the lower end of the movable piece 826a is restricted from further rotating in the direction protruding into the guide passage 822c (left direction in front view). Further, when the movable piece member rear 826 rotates the lower end of the movable piece 826a in a direction approaching the wall of the guide passage 822c (right direction in front view), the left side surface of the movable piece 826a is moved to the guide passage 822c. It matches the inner surface. In this state, the detection piece 826f after the movable piece member 826 is in a non-detection state with respect to the ball breakage detection sensor 827.
That is, when there is a game ball in the guide passage 822c, the ball break detection sensor 827 is not detected.

  The ball guiding unit 820 of the present embodiment is supplied with a plurality of game balls arranged in a line in the front and rear directions by the tank rail 803, and the front case 821 and the rear case in a state where the plurality of game balls are arranged in a line. By 822, it is possible to guide to the lower dispensing device 830 in two rows before and after (see FIG. 113). At this time, since the front case 821 and the rear case 822 are partitioned by the partition plate 823, the game balls flowing through the respective guide passages 821c and 822c do not interfere with each other and flow well. Can do.

  Further, when the game ball flows through the guide passages 821c and 822c of the ball guide unit 820, the game ball comes into contact with the movable pieces 825a and 826a of the movable piece member front 825 and the movable piece member rear 826, and the movable pieces 825a and 826a are moved. The movable piece member front 825 and the movable piece member rear 826 rotate in a direction coinciding with the wall surfaces of the guide passages 821c and 822c. Thereby, the detection pieces 825f and 826f before the movable piece member 825 and the detection piece 825f and 826f after the movable piece member 826 are in a non-detection state with respect to the ball break detection sensor 827, and it can be seen that there is a game ball in the guide passages 821c and 822c.

  When the game ball is paid out by the payout device 830 on the downstream side of the ball guidance unit 820, the game balls in the guide passages 821c and 822c flow downstream. When a game ball flows through the guide passages 821c and 822c, the momentum of the game ball flowing through the introduction portions 821d and 822d is increased, and the game ball flowing through the introduction portions 821d and 822d is movable pieces above the detection portions 821e and 822e. It bounces back to the side of 825a, 826a and comes into contact with the movable pieces 825a, 826a. Since the movable pieces 825a and 826a vibrate due to the abutment of the game ball, the movable pieces 825a and 826a vibrate between the movable pieces 825a and 826a and the notches 821g and 822g of the guide passages 821c and 822c. It is possible to remove dust, dust, etc., and the movable pieces 825a and 826a can be rotated favorably by their own weight or the like.

  In addition, the ball guiding unit 820 detects the game balls flowing through the respective guide passages 821c and 822c by the separate movable piece member front 825 and the movable piece member rear 826, respectively, and the movable piece member front 825 and Since each of the detection pieces 825f and 826f after the movable piece member 826 is detected by one ball breakage detection sensor 827, when there is no game ball in any of the guide passages 821c and 822c, The movable pieces 825a and 826a of the movable piece member 825 or the movable piece member 826 are rotated so as to protrude into the guide passages 821c and 822c, and the detection pieces 825f and 826f on the side where the game ball is lost are detected by the broken ball detection sensor 827. The Therefore, since it is possible to detect a shortage of the game ball at an early stage, it is possible to quickly replenish the game ball and shorten the time when the game is interrupted as much as possible, thereby reducing the interest of the player. Can be suppressed.

  Further, the weight of the movable piece member front 825, the movable piece member rear 826, and the weight is obtained by screwing and attaching a metal screw as a weight to the weight attaching portions 825e, 826e of the movable piece member front 825 and the movable piece member rear 826. Thus, the lower ends of the movable pieces 825a and 826a can be easily rotated in the direction of protruding into the guide passages 821c and 822c. Further, since the upper ends of the movable pieces 825a and 826a are rotatably attached to the outside of the guide passages 821c and 822c, and the lower end side protrudes into the guide passages 821c and 822c, the dust in the guide passages 821c and 822c. And dust do not adhere to the upper and lower ends of the movable pieces 825a and 826a. Therefore, even if the movable pieces 825a and 826a rotate to the wall side of the guide passages 821c and 822c, dust, dust, or the like does not bite between the lower ends of the movable pieces 825a and 826a and the wall. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of a problem that the movable pieces 825a and 826a do not rotate.

  As described above, the ball guiding unit 820 of the present embodiment has the movable piece front 825 and the movable pieces 825a and 826a behind the movable piece member 826 projecting into the guide passages 821c and 822c through which the game balls flow due to their own weight. By attaching weights made of metal screws to weight attachment portions 825e, 826e on the opposite side of the surface that comes into contact with the game ball, the movable piece member 825 and the movable piece member rear part 826 are moved according to their own weight and weight weight. The lower end side of 825a, 826a can be easily rotated (projected) into the guide passages 821c, 822c. Further, since the upper ends of the movable pieces 825a and 826a are rotatably attached to the outside of the guide passages 821c and 822c, and the lower end side protrudes into the guide passages 821c and 822c, the dust in the guide passages 821c and 822c. And dust do not adhere to the upper and lower ends of the movable pieces 825a and 826a. Therefore, even if the movable pieces 825a and 826a rotate to the wall side of the guide passages 821c and 822c, dust, dust, or the like does not bite between the lower ends of the movable pieces 825a and 826a and the wall. The movable pieces 825a and 826a (the movable piece member front 825 and the movable piece member rear 826) can be prevented from rotating.

  Further, since the metal screw as the weight is screwed into and attached to the weight attaching portions 825e and 826e formed as the through holes, the weight is not affected even if the movable piece member front 825 and the movable piece member rear 826 are rotated frequently. The movable piece member front 825 and the movable piece member rear 826 (the weight attaching portions 825e and 826e) are not detached from each other, and the movable piece member front 825 and the movable piece member rear 826 can be maintained in a good state for a long time. . Moreover, since the weight can be easily attached to the movable piece member front 825 and the movable piece member rear 826 simply by screwing the metal screw into the weight attachment portions 825e and 826e, the labor for attaching the weight can be simplified. The cost associated with the assembly of the pachinko machine 1 can be reduced.

  Further, in the guide passages 821c and 822c, introduction portions 821d and 822d for guiding the game ball toward the movable pieces 825a and 826a are provided on the upstream side of the portion where the movable pieces 825a and 826a protrude inside. Since the game balls flow in the guide passages 821c and 822c, the game balls come into contact with the movable pieces 825a and 826a. Therefore, the movable pieces 825a and 826a can be vibrated by the contact of the game balls. Accordingly, the vibrations of the movable pieces 825a and 826a can remove dust or dirt that is sandwiched or invaded between the movable pieces 825a and 826a and the walls of the guide passages 821c and 822c. The front piece 825 and the rear piece 826 of the movable piece can be favorably rotated.

  Therefore, since the movable piece member front 825 and the movable piece member rear 826 can be rotated well, the state (presence / absence) of the game ball in the guide passages 821c and 822c can be detected reliably, and the game ball It is possible to suppress the occurrence of problems due to erroneous detection or the like. In addition, even if the game balls supplied to the payout device 830 disappear from the guide passages 821c and 822c, the presence or absence of the guide passages 821c and 822c can be reliably detected via the movable pieces 825a and 826a. The game ball can be replenished to the player, and the time at which the game is interrupted can be shortened as much as possible, thereby suppressing a decrease in the interest of the player.

In the present embodiment, the distance S is 0.7 to 0.9 times the outer diameter of the game ball. In other words, the distance from the most recessed portion of the ball housing portion 839e to the arc-shaped portions of the payout passages 831d and 832d is 1.03 to 1.1 times the outer diameter of the game ball. .

  As a result, when the game ball flowing down on the payout vane 839 comes into contact with the outer peripheries of the front vane 839b and the rear vane 839c, the payout device 830 passes through the bent portion of the payout passages 831d and 832d in a crank shape. Cannot be discharged downward from the payout outlets 831b and 832b. On the other hand, when the game ball is accommodated in the ball accommodating portion 839e, the game ball moves along with the rotation of the payout blade 839, and can pass through the portion bent in the crank shape of the payout passages 831d and 832d, from the payout outlets 831b and 832b. Released downwards.

  In the payout device 830, the diameter D1 of the front blade 839b and the rear blade 839c is about 1.2 to 1.4 times the outer diameter of the game ball, and the ball housing portion 839e has a diameter 1 of the game ball. Since the depth of / 7 to ¼ is accommodated, the time required to accommodate the game ball can be shortened while reducing the outer diameter of the payout vane 839 as much as possible. Thereby, even if the payout blade 839 is rotated rapidly, the game ball can be accommodated in the ball accommodating portion 839e and sent to the payout outlets 831b and 832b. Accordingly, the number of game balls to be paid out per unit time can be increased as compared with the conventional case, and the time required for paying out game balls can be shortened.

  The ball-removable movable piece 843 extends in a plate shape in the vertical and front / rear direction, and a lower portion is bent to form a body shape in a front view, and extends in a cylindrical shape in the front / rear direction at the upper end of the main body portion 843a. A shaft tube portion 843b whose both ends are rotatably attached to the front box 831 and the rear box 832 respectively, a projecting portion 843c projecting from the upper portion of the outer side surface of the main body portion 843a, and a main body portion 843a. A weight attaching portion 843d (see FIG. 105) including a through-hole penetrating in the front-rear direction in a lower portion bent in a square shape.

  In the state where the dispensing device 830 is assembled, the ball removal movable piece 843 is oriented so that the lower portion of the main body portion 843a extends obliquely to the lower left when viewed from the front, and the upper cylindrical tube portion 843b is disposed to eject the front box 831 and the rear box 832. In the passages 831d and 832d, it is possible to turn at a position that extends obliquely from the pay-out entrances 831a and 832a to the lower right in the front view, and slightly outside the wall on the right in the front view that is slightly above the part that bends downward. Installed on.

  In the normal state, the dispensing device 830 of the present embodiment is in a state in which the ball removal lever 844 is slid downward, and the lower portion of the ball removal lever 844 hits the protrusion 843c of the ball removal movable piece 843 from the right side in front view. Touching. As a result, the ball removal movable piece 843 is restricted from turning counterclockwise when viewed from the front (see FIG. 105A).

  In this normal state, in the main body portion 843a bent in the shape of a square of the ball extraction movable piece 843, the upper side extends vertically from the bent portion, and the lower side of the bent portion is diagonally lower left in front view. It extends to. And the lower end of the main-body part 843a is located in the vicinity of the site | part which the payout channel | paths 831d and 832d and the ball extraction channel | paths 831e and 832e branch. Therefore, the ball removal passages 831e and 832e are closed by the ball removal movable piece 843 (main body portion 843a), and the surface facing the left side of the main body portion 843a forms a part of the wall of the discharge passages 831d and 832d. is doing.

  The ball removal movable piece 843 of the present embodiment is formed such that, in a normal state, the center of gravity of the ball removal movable piece 843 is located on the left side of the vertical line passing through the center of the shaft tube portion 843b. Although a force to rotate counterclockwise as viewed from the front acts on the anti-clockwise rotation by the ball removal lever 844, the normal state is maintained.

  When the ball removal lever 844 is slid upward from the normal state, the lower portion of the ball removal lever 844 moves away from the protruding portion 843c of the ball removal movable piece 843, and the ball removal movable piece 843 rotates counterclockwise when viewed from the front. Movement restrictions are lifted. Accordingly, the ball-moving movable piece 843 is rotated counterclockwise by its own weight so that the center of gravity is located directly below the shaft tube portion 843b. The ball removal movable piece 843 rotates counterclockwise until the lower right side surface of the main body portion 843a contacts the left surface of the member forming the right side surface of the front box 831 and the rear box 832. (See FIG. 105 (b)). As a result, the ball removal passages 831e and 832e are opened, and the game ball that has entered from the payout entrances 831a and 832a comes into contact with the main body portion 843a of the ball removal movable piece 843 in the middle of the payout passages 831d and 832d.

  In the present embodiment, since the ball removal movable piece 843 includes the weight attachment portion 843d, the ball attachment lever 844d is slid upward by screwing and attaching a weight made of a metal screw to the weight attachment portion 843d. Thus, when the restriction of the counterclockwise rotation in front view is released, the lower end of the ball removal movable piece 843 protrudes into the ball removal passages 831e and 832e due to the weight of the ball removal movable piece 843 and the weight of the weight. It is possible to facilitate rotation in a direction (counterclockwise in a front view).

  Further, in a normal state where the ball removal lever 844 is slid downward to close the ball removal passages 831e and 832e, a game ball that has entered from the payout inlets 831a and 832a enters the main body portion 843a of the ball removal movable piece 843. Since the contact is made, the ball removal movable piece 843 can be vibrated by the contact of the game ball. Accordingly, dust or dirt sandwiched or invaded between the lower end of the ball removal movable piece 843 and the inner surfaces of the ball removal passages 831e and 832e can be removed by the vibration of the ball removal movable piece 843. It is possible to prevent the ball removal movable piece 843 from becoming unable to rotate by biting or dust.

  Further, since a metal screw as a weight can be screwed into and attached to the weight attaching portion 843d that is a through hole, the weight is removed from the ball-moving movable piece 843 even if the ball-moving movable piece 843 rotates frequently. The ball removal movable piece 843 can be maintained in a good state over a long period of time without being disengaged from the (weight attaching portion 843d). Further, since the weight can be easily attached to the ball removing movable piece 843 simply by screwing the metal screw into the weight attaching portion 843d, the labor for attaching the weight can be simplified, and the pachinko machine 1 can be assembled. The cost which concerns on can be reduced.

  By the way, if the ball removal passages 831e and 832e are closed for a long time by the ball removal movable piece 843, fine dust adheres to the rotation shaft of the ball removal movable piece 843 or the rotation shaft rusts, and the ball The extraction movable piece 843 may become difficult to rotate. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the game balls that have entered from the payout entrances 831a and 832a are in contact with the main body portion 843a of the ball removal movable piece 843. , 832e from the closed state, when the ball release lever 844 for releasing the closure is slid upward to release the lock, the game ball comes into contact with the ball release movable piece 843, so that the impact of the contact The ball removal movable piece 843 can be rotated, and the ball removal passages 831e and 832e can be reliably opened.

  Therefore, when the ball removal lever 844 is operated to open the ball removal passages 831e and 832e, the ball removal movable piece 843 can be rotated favorably, so that the game ball can be removed with certainty. The workability during maintenance and the like can be improved.

And a closing spring 864 biasing in a direction to close the front end opening.

  Further, the lower full ball path unit 860 guides the game ball released from the upper ball exit 850h of the upper full ball path unit 850 forward, and moves on the board unit base 910 of the board unit 900 from the center right end in the front-rear direction. And a lower ball extraction guide path 865 for discharging to the bottom.

  In the lower full ball path unit 860, a normal guide path 861, a full tank guide path 862, and a lower ball guide path 865 are arranged in order from the left side to the right side in a front view. The normal guiding path 861, the full tank guiding path 862, and the lower ball guiding path 865 have rear ends that open upward. The normal guiding path 861 and the full tank guiding path 862 have a width in which a plurality of game balls are arranged on the left and right sides, and extend forward to the vicinity of the front end of the main body frame 4 so that the front end side is lowered. Further, the full tank guide path 862 extends forward at a position lower than the normal guide path 861. As shown in the drawing, the normal guiding path 861, the full tank guiding path 862, and the lower ball guiding path 865 are formed by an upper case 866 and a lower case 867 that can be divided vertically.

The guideway opening / closing door 863 is rotatably attached to a portion between the normal guideway 861 and the full guideway 862 at the front end of the lower case 867 and is rotated clockwise by a closing spring 864. It is energized. More specifically, a full tank guide path 862 that opens to the right of the front end opening of the normal guide path 861 in front view at the front end of the lower full sphere path unit 860 is one game for the normal guide path 861. It is placed at a position lower by the height of the sphere.
The guideway opening / closing door 863 is attached to the lower side of the normal guideway 861 and to the left side of the full tank guideway 862 so as to be rotatable about an axis extending in the front-rear direction.

  The guideway opening / closing door 863 includes a disk-like base portion 863a that is rotatably mounted, a first door plate portion 863b that extends obliquely from the base portion 863a to the upper left side and that can close the front end opening of the normal guideway 861. A second door plate portion 863c extending rightward from the base portion 863a and closing the front end opening of the full guide path 862, and an extending portion 863d extending from the base portion 863a obliquely to the lower left side in a flat plate shape. And an operating protrusion 863e that protrudes forward from the front surface of the distal end of the extending portion 863d and that can contact the door opening / closing contact portion 281 of the foul cover unit 270 in the door frame 3.

  Here, closing the front end openings of the normal guiding path 861 and the full tank guiding path 862 means that it is not necessary to seal the openings, and it is sufficient that the game ball cannot pass. The operating projection 863e is formed in a short arc shape with the base 863a as the center when viewed from the front, and the front end surface is inclined so as to protrude forward as it approaches the end in the counterclockwise direction. is doing.

  The guide path opening / closing door 863 is urged clockwise by a closing spring 864, and the second door plate portion 863 c is located below the front end opening of the full tank guide path 862 at the front end of the lower case 867. The contact with the boss 867a protruding forward restricts the clockwise rotation.

  In the lower full tank path unit 860 of the present embodiment, the pachinko machine 1 is assembled, and the front end of the lower full tank path unit 860 is a through ball passage 273, a full tank receiving port 274, and a door opening / closing door in the foul cover unit 270 of the door frame 3. It is attached at a position facing the contact portion 281 (see FIG. 112). Since the guide path opening / closing door 863 is not in contact with the operating protrusion 863e when the door frame 3 is open with respect to the main body frame 4, the guide path opening / closing door 863 is biased by the closing spring 864. Thus, the second door plate portion 863c is stopped in a state of being in contact with the boss portion 867a of the lower case 867. In this state, the first door plate portion 863b and the second door plate portion 863c are positioned in front of the front end openings of the normal guide path 861 and the full tank guide path 862, and close the front end openings (FIG. 111). (See (a)). Accordingly, in this state, the game balls in the normal guiding path 861 and the full tank guiding path 862 cannot move forward from the front end opening, and even if the door frame 3 is opened, the normal guiding path 861 and the full tank guiding are not performed. Game balls will not spill from the road 862.

  When the door frame 3 is closed with respect to the main body frame 4, the door opening / closing contact portion 281 of the foul cover unit 270 in the door frame 3 comes into contact with the front end surface of the operation protrusion 863 e of the guide path opening / closing door 863 to operate Due to the inclination of the front end surface of the protrusion 863e, a force acts to rotate the guide path opening / closing door 863 in a counterclockwise direction when viewed from the front against the urging force of the closing spring 864. As a result, the first door plate portion 863b and the second door plate portion 863c, which have closed the front end openings of the normal guide path 861 and the full tank guide path 862, rotate in a direction away from the front end opening, and the normal guide path 861 In addition, the front end opening of the full tank guide path 862 is opened (see FIG. 111B). In this state, as shown in the figure, the first door plate portion 863b is positioned below the front end opening of the normal guide passage 861, and the second door plate portion 863c is positioned above the front end opening of the full tank guide passage 862. .

  In the state where the front end openings of the normal guiding path 861 and the full tank guiding path 862 are opened, the door frame 3 is completely closed with respect to the main body frame 4, and the normal guiding path 861 and the full tank guiding path 862 The through-ball passage 273 and the full tank receiving port 274 of the foul cover unit 270 in the door frame 3 are located on the front side of the front end opening of the guide passage 862. A game ball can be delivered to the ball passage 273 and the full tank receiving port 274 side.

  In this way, the front end openings of the normal guideway 861 and the full tank guideway 862 are made different in the vertical direction, and the front end openings of the normal guideway 861 and the full tank guideway 862 are made by turning the guideway opening / closing door 863. Since opening and closing is performed, the operation range of the guideway opening / closing door 863 can be made as narrow as possible, and the opening / closing mechanism of the normal guideway 861 and the full-way guideway 862 can be downsized. Therefore, the space for other members can be relatively widened, and the internal space of the pachinko machine 1 can be used more effectively.

  The payout unit 800 of the present embodiment has more game balls from the payout device 830 in a state where the upper plate 321 of the door frame 3 is filled with game balls and the game balls cannot be released to the upper plate 321. Is paid out, the game balls can be stored until the inside of the normal guiding path 861 of the lower full tank path unit 860 is filled with game balls. When a game ball is further paid out from the payout device 830 in a state where the normal guiding path 861 is full of game balls, the game ball is normally released in the upper ball storage passage 850c of the upper full ball path unit 850. If it stays above the outlet 850d and exceeds the partition piece 850f, it will circulate to the full tank outlet 850e side, and the full tank guide path 862 of the lower full ball path unit 860 from the full tank outlet 850e, The payout of game balls through the foul cover unit 270 to the lower plate 322 is automatically switched. Thereafter, when the game balls are further paid out from the payout device 830 and the lower plate 322 is filled with the game balls in addition to the upper plate 321, the foul cover unit 270 is not able to supply the game balls to the lower plate 322. A game ball is stored in the storage passage 277. When the movable piece 278 is rotated by the storage of the game ball in the storage passage 277 and detected by the full tank detection sensor 279, the upper plate 321 and the lower plate 322 are full of game balls. And the payout of the game ball by the payout device 830 is temporarily stopped until the detection of the movable piece 278 by the full tank detection sensor 279 is released.

  Note that the stop of the game ball payout by the payout device 830 with respect to the detection of the movable piece 278 by the full tank detection sensor 279, for example, the game ball is stored until the movable piece 278 is detected in the storage passage 277 of the foul cover unit 270. In such a state, it is possible to fill the upstream storage passage 277, the full tank guide path 862 of the lower full sphere path unit 860, and the upper sphere storage path 850c of the upper full tank path unit 850. When the game ball is paid out, the payout of the game ball by the payout device 830 may be stopped. As a result, more game balls can be stored than in conventional pachinko machines, so that in a gaming state in which many game balls are paid out, such as during a big hit game, the upper plate 321 and the lower plate 322 are released by the game balls being paid out. It is possible to reduce the need to worry about being filled with game balls, and to allow the player to concentrate on the big hit game and have fun.

  The attacker unit 2400 is attached to the front surface of the panel plate 1110, and the gate passage 2420 is located immediately below the opening on the downstream side of the right guide passage 2540 in the center accessory 2500 described later, and the gate portion 2003 is located above the stage 2530 of the center accessory 2500. In addition, the first grand prize opening 2005 and the general prize opening 2001 are located below the first start opening 2002 of the start opening unit 2100.

  Next, the flow of game balls in the attacker unit 2400 will be described. Since the gate portion 2003 of the attacker unit 2400 is positioned above the stage 2530 of the center accessory 2500 in the assembled state on the game board 5, the gate portion 2003 is not moved even if a game ball is released from the stage 2530. Never pass. Therefore, only the game ball that has flowed down the right side of the center accessory 2500 can pass through the gate portion 2003. Since the upper end opening of the gate passage 2420 in which the gate portion 2003 is disposed opens upward immediately below the opening on the downstream side of the right guide passage 2540 in the center accessory 2500, the right side of the center accessory 2500 The game ball that has flowed down will enter the gate passage 2420 with a high probability and pass through the gate portion 2003.

Then, the game ball that has passed through the gate portion 2003 is discharged from the gate passage 2420 to the attacker passage 2423 through the front of the second start opening door 2411 that closes the second start opening 2004 immediately below it. At this time, if the second starter door 2411 rotates forward and is in the open position, the game ball that has passed through the gate portion 2003 comes into contact with the back surface of the second starter door 2411 and is second. It is guided to the start port 2004 side and is received by the second start port 2004.
The second start door 2411 is in accordance with the normal lottery result drawn when the game ball passes through the gate part 2003 (the game ball is detected by the gate sensor 2401). Since it is driven at the same time, by appropriately setting the lottery time of the normal lottery result, the opening / closing timing of the second starter door 2411, etc., the game ball itself having the “normal hit” lottery is accepted into the second starter 2004. be able to.

  The game ball received in the second start port 2004 is detected by the second start port sensor and then discharged downward (on the board holder 1200) on the rear side of the game panel 1100.

  In the gate passage 2420, since the left and right sides of the portion between the gate portion 2003 and the second start port 2004 communicate with the left side passage 2421 and the right side passage 2422, the game that has passed through the gate portion 2003. A sphere may enter the left side passage 2421 or the right side passage 2422 through a rarely communicating portion. That is, the game ball that has passed through the gate part 2003 does not necessarily pass through the front of the second start door 2411.

  When the game ball that has flowed down the right side of the center object 2500 does not enter the gate passage 2420, it enters either the left side passage 2421 or the right side passage 2422 disposed on the left and right sides of the gate passage 2420, It is discharged to the attacker passage 2423 through the left side passage 2421 or the right side passage 2422.

  A game ball released from any one of the gate passage 2420, the left side passage 2421, and the right side passage 2422 to the attacker passage 2423 is guided to the left along the inclination of the attacker passage 2423, and downward from the left end of the attacker passage 2423. Is released. At this time, if the second grand prize opening door 2413 closing the second big prize opening 2006 is retreated and the second big prize opening 2006 is opened, the game balls released into the attacker passage 2423 are It is accepted with high probability in the second big prize opening 2006. The game ball received in the second big prize opening 2006 is detected by the second big prize opening sensor 2402 and then sent to the internal passage 2430, and the first receiving port 2431 or the second receiving port 2432 by the sorting piece 2433. It is distributed to either.

  The game ball received in the first receiving port 2431 or the second receiving port 2432 is detected by the first receiving port sensor 2434 or the second receiving port sensor 2435 and is moved downward (substrate holder) 1200)).

  In addition, since the width of the second big prize opening 2006 is about 1.5 times the outer diameter of the game ball, the second big prize opening door 2413 is retracted and the second big prize opening 2006 is Even if it is open, depending on the speed, behavior, etc. of the game balls flowing through the attacker passage 2423, the game balls may jump over the second big prize opening 2006 and may not be accepted into the second big prize opening 2006. .

The game balls released from the attacker passage 2423 flow down onto the attacker shelf 2424, are guided to the attacker shelf 2424, and are released downward from the left end of the attacker shelf 2424.
At this time, if the first grand prize opening door 2412 is retracted and the first big prize opening 2005 is opened, the game balls released from the attacker passage 2423 are accepted into the first big prize opening 2005. . Therefore, when the game ball is driven into the game area 5a so as to circulate on the right side of the center bonus 2500 while the first game winning opening 2005 is open, the game ball is placed at the first game winning opening 2005 with a high probability. Can be accepted.

  The game balls received in the first big prize opening 2005 are detected by a first big prize opening sensor (not shown) and then discharged downward (on the board holder 1200) on the rear side of the gaming panel 1100.

  There is a possibility that a game ball released downward from the attacker shelf 2424 may be received by one general winning opening 2001 arranged below. The game ball received in the general winning opening 2001 of the attacker unit 2400 is guided to the rear side of the panel board 1110 and then transferred to the right delivery port 3136 of the back front decoration unit 3100 in the back unit 3000. On the other hand, the game balls that have not been accepted into the general winning opening 2001 pass through the out opening 1126 at the lower end of the gaming area 5a and are discharged downward (on the board holder 1200) on the rear side of the gaming panel 1100.

  Next, the movement of the back upper rotation base unit 3570 will be described. In this backside rotation base unit 3570, a mounting cylinder part 3571d protruding rearward of the backside rotation base 3571 is inserted into the shaft cylinder part 3611a of the movable side base 3611 in the movable side unit 3610 of the backside lifting unit 3600. As a result, the movable unit 3610 is attached so as to rotate about the axis extending in the front-rear direction on the front surface. In addition, the back upper rotation base unit 3570 is restricted from moving forward by the first mounting shaft member 3525 of the back first decorative body unit 3510 that is attached to the front surface of the movable side unit through the mounting cylinder portion 3571d from the front. Is done. Further, the back upper rotation base unit 3570 is arranged on the front surface of the second drive link gear member 3573 rotatably attached to the second hole 3571b of the back upper rotation base 3571. By attaching the rear surface of the two attachment bases 3544, the backside second decorative body unit 3530 can be attached to be rotatable relative to the backside rotation base 3571. Further, the back upper rotation base unit 3570 is provided on the front surface of the third drive link gear member 3578 rotatably attached to the third hole 3571c of the back upper rotation base 3571. By attaching the rear surface of the three attachment bases 3564, the back upper third decorative body unit 3550 can be attached to be rotatable relative to the back upper rotation base 3571.

  The backside rotation base unit 3570 is attached to the front surface of the movable side unit 3610 in the backside lifting unit 3600, and the rotation base driven gear 3572 is engaged with the rotation base drive gear 3614 of the movable side unit 3610. At the same time, the second third link gear 3577 and the third third link gear 3582 mesh with the central link gear 3611b of the movable side base 3611 of the movable side unit 3610 (see FIG. 163). When the rotation base drive gear 3614 is rotated by driving the back surface rotation drive motor 3612 of the movable side unit 3610, the back surface rotation base unit 3570 is attached to the first hole 3571a (attachment) via the rotation base driven gear 3572. It rotates around an axis extending back and forth about the axis of the cylindrical portion 3571d). The back upper rotation base unit 3570 has a horizontal position in which the longitudinal direction (the direction in which the first hole 3571a, the second hole 3571b, and the third hole 3571c are arranged) extends horizontally, and the vertical that extends vertically. You can rotate 90 degrees between positions. In the horizontal position, the second hole 3571b is located to the right of the first hole 3571a, and in the vertical position, the second hole 3571b is located below the first hole 3571a. At this horizontal position, the back rotation base unit rotation detection sensor 3590 detects the rotation detection piece 3611d of the movable unit 3610 in the back lifting unit 3600.

  When the back upper rotation base unit 3570 rotates between the horizontal position and the vertical position around the first hole 3571a, the second third link gear 3577 and the third third link gear 3582 are moved to the movable side unit 3610. It moves so as to revolve around the central link gear 3611b. At this time, since the second third link gear 3577 and the third third link gear 3582 mesh with the central link gear 3611b, the second third link gear 3511b revolves around the central link gear 3611b. The gear 3577 and the third third link gear 3582 rotate respectively, and each rotate relative to the back upper rotation base 3571.

  Then, when the second third link gear 3577 and the third third link gear 3582 rotate, the rotation of the second third link gear 3577 from the second third link gear 3577 and the second second link gear 3576 and the second It is transmitted to the second link gear portion 3573b via the second first link gear 3575, and the second drive link gear member 3573 rotates in the opposite direction to the second third link gear 3577, so that the third The third link gear 3582 is transmitted to the third link gear portion 3578b via the third second link gear 3581 and the third first link gear 3580, and the third drive link gear member 3578 is transferred to the third link gear portion 3578. The third link gear 3582 is rotated in the opposite direction.

The left end of the second action portion 3586i is located on the left side of the second hole 3571b. Furthermore, the left end of the third working portion 3586k is located near the right end of the third hole 3571c. In this state, the lower end of the third extension 3586 j of the action lever 3586 is detected by the action lever movement detection sensor 3588.

  On the other hand, in the state where the action lever 3586 is moved to the rightmost (state of the non-action position), the lock piece 3586d and the first action part 3586f are located to the right of the first hole 3571a. Further, the left end of the second action portion 3586i is located slightly to the left with respect to the center of the second hole 3571b. Furthermore, the left end of the third action portion 3586k is located to the right of the third hole 3571c. In this state, the lower end of the third extending portion 3586j of the action lever 3586 is separated from the action lever movement detection sensor 3588, and is in a non-detection state.

  As will be described in detail later, the action lever 3586 is moved to the action position, and the lock piece 3586d is inserted into the horizontal lock hole 3525a or the vertical lock hole 3525b in the first mounting shaft member 3525 of the back first decorative body unit 3510. By doing so, the rotation of the back surface rotation base unit 3570 relative to the movable side unit 3610 of the back surface lifting unit 3600 can be restricted (locked). Therefore, when the operation lever 3586 is moved to the non-operation position, the lock piece 3586d comes out of the horizontal lock hole 3525a or the vertical lock hole 3525b, and is rotated backward on the movable side unit 3610 of the back lift unit 3600. The base unit 3570 can be rotated.

And a substrate cover 3660 attached to the rear side of the fixed side base 3651.

  Next, the operation of the back lifting unit 3600 will be described. The back lifting unit 3600 has a mounting cylinder portion 3571d of the back top rotation base 3571 in the back top rotation base unit 3570 rotatably inserted into the shaft tube portion 3611a of the movable side base 3611 in the movable side unit 3610. The rear end of the first attachment shaft member 3525 of the first upper decorative body unit 3510 is attached to the front surface of the movable base 3611 through the attachment cylinder portion 3571d of the upper rotation base 3571. Thereby, the movable unit 3610 attaches the back rotation base unit 3570 so as to be rotatable around a shaft extending in the front-rear direction around the shaft cylinder portion 3611a (first hole 3571a) in a state in which the backside rotation base unit 3570 is not movable forward. be able to.

  In a state in which the backside rotation base unit 3570 is attached to the movable side base 3611 of the movable side unit 3610, the rotation base drive gear 3614 is engaged with the rotation base driven gear 3572 of the backside rotation base unit 3570. Accordingly, when the rotation base drive gear 3614 is rotated via the rotation drive gear 3613 by driving the back surface rotation drive motor 3612, the back surface rotation base unit 3570 is rotated around the shaft tube portion 3611a (first hole 3571a). Can be made. The movable side unit 3610 can rotate the back upper rotation base unit 3570 by 90 degrees between a horizontally extending state and a vertically extending state. The rotation detection piece 3611d of the movable base 3611 in the movable unit 3610 is detected by the back rotation base unit rotation detection sensor 3590 of the back rotation base unit 3570 when the back rotation base unit 3570 is in the horizontal position. .

  Further, in the assembled state, the back up / down lift unit 3600 is movable (movable up and down) only in the vertical direction with respect to the fixed side unit 3650 by the pair of lift slide rails 3656 of the fixed side unit 3650. ing. In the movable side unit 3610, the up / down drive pins 3652b of the up / down rotating body 3652 in the fixed side unit 3650 are inserted into the up / down slit 3611c of the movable side base 3611 so as to be slidable in the left-right direction. Therefore, the position of the movable unit 3610 in the vertical direction is regulated by the height position of the lift drive pin 3652b in the lift rotating body 3652. The movable side unit 3610 is biased so as to move upward by a pair of lifting springs 3657.

  As shown in FIG. 158 (a), the back lifting unit 3600 has a lifting drive pin 3652b that revolves by the rotation of the lifting rotary member 3652, directly above the rotation center of the lifting rotary member 3652, as shown in FIG. On the other hand, it is located slightly to the right, and the movable unit 3610 is in the up position where it is located on the uppermost side by the lift drive pin 3652b. In this state, the detection piece 3652c of the up-and-down rotating body 3652 is detected by the up-and-down detection sensor 3655. In this state, the lift drive pin 3652b is in contact with the right end of the lift slit 3611c extending to the left and right of the movable base 3611 in the movable unit 3610.

  Accordingly, the weight on the movable unit 3610 side acts on the lifting drive pin 3652b, so that the lifting drive pin 3652b does not rotate even when the lifting rotary body 3652 tries to rotate in the clockwise direction through the lifting drive pin 3652b. Since it is in contact with the right end of the elevating slit 3611c, the elevating rotating body 3652 can no longer rotate in the clockwise direction when viewed from the front, and the movable unit 3610 is prevented from moving downward. ing. That is, the movable unit 3610 is locked at the raised position. Accordingly, the weight (load) from the movable unit 3610 side does not act on the back up / down drive motor 3654 via the lift gear portion 3652a and the lift drive gear 3653 of the lift rotating body 3652, and the back A load is not applied to the up / down drive motor 3654.

  When the up / down rotary body 3652 is rotated counterclockwise by the back up / down drive motor 3654 from this raised position, the up / down drive pin 3652b of the up / down rotary body 3652 moves to the left. The revolving drive pin 3652b slides to the left in the elevating slit 3611c, and the movable side unit 3610 receives the urging force of the pair of elevating springs 3657 through the elevating slit 3611c. It will move down. When the elevating drive pin 3652b that revolves when the elevating rotating body 3652 rotates counterclockwise revolves downward beyond the same height as the rotation center of the elevating rotating body 3652, the left / right direction of the elevating drive pin 3652b The direction of the movement changes and moves downward while moving to the right, and slides to the right in the lifting slit 3611c.

  When the elevating drive pin 3652b is located immediately below the center of the elevating rotary body 3652, the rotation of the elevating rotary body 3652 stops, and at the same time, the downward movement of the movable side unit 3610 is stopped, and the movable side unit 3610 is stopped. Is in the lowered position (see FIG. 158 (b)). In addition, when moving the movable unit 3610 from the lowered position to the raised position, the back lifting drive motor 3654 is driven in the opposite direction to rotate the lifting rotary body 3652 in the clockwise direction when viewed from the front. Thus, it can be returned to the raised position. At this time, the upward movement of the movable unit 3610 is assisted by the urging force of the pair of elevating springs 3657, and the load applied to the rear elevating drive motor 3654 is reduced.

  As described above, the back lifting unit 3600 has the back top first decorative body unit 3510, the back top second decorative body unit 3530, the back top third decorative body unit 3550, and the back top rotation via the movable side unit 3610. The base unit 3570 can be moved up and down (lifted) between the raised position and the lowered position.

Regarding the third performance operation unit 400B, the following embodiment can be considered based on the structure already described.
[Example 400B-1]: The rotating decorative body 4003 is not a solid like a sphere but a disk. For example, when a disk attached with an inclination to the rotation axis is viewed from the front, the front and back surfaces of the disk appear to change with rotation.
[Example 400B-2]: When pulling the handle 4102 to rotate the rotating decorative body 4003 in the normal direction, the rotating decorative body 4003 is rotated in the forward direction even during the return of the pull handle 4102 to the original position. The rotating decorative body 4003 is continuously rotated in the forward direction when pulling the pull handle 4102 and when returning it.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 192, a reverse drive gear 4122 is provided coaxially with a drive wheel 4106 provided with a one-way rotation clutch 4109, and an idle gear 4123 is always meshed therewith, and a clutch gear 4124 is engaged with the idle gear 4123. By disposing a gear train in which the shafts of these gears are connected by a link 4125 in a meshed state, the clutch gear 4124 side of the link 4125 can be rotated about the shaft of the idle gear 4123 as the rotation axis. A switching clutch mechanism 4126 is provided that enables the clutch gear 4124 to engage and disengage with the drive gear 4015 on the second drive shaft 4012 side. Thus, the link 4125 is switched to a position where the clutch gear 4124 meshes with the drive gear 4015 when the string 4202 is rewound by the mainspring spring 4107.

The operation may be automatic, or the player may turn the link 4125 by operating the lever 4127 or the like from the outside.
In this way, not only when the player pulls, but also when the hand is released, there is an unexpectedness of rotating more vigorously, and it is also interesting that the rotating decorative body 4003 continues to rotate, It is effective in suppressing decline.

In the above configuration (FIG. 192), when the clutch gear 4124 is not provided and the idle gear 4123 is in direct contact with or separated from the drive gear 4105, the rotating decorative body 4003 rotates forward when the handle 4102 is pulled, and the handle 4102 When it is returned, it can be rotated backward. At this time, the rotation of the rotating decorative body 4003 can be stopped by the pulling state of the pull handle 4102, so that the player can arbitrarily control the rotation of the rotating decorative body, and the voluntary feeling of operation is increased, and the decrease in the game entertainment is suppressed. It is effective to do.
The operation of the idle gear 4123 (substantially clutch gear) can be manually performed by the player using the lever 4127 or the like, or the change from the pulling movement of the string 4202 to the rewinding movement can be captured. It may be operated automatically.

[Embodiment 400B-3]: Embodiment 6: In the gaming machine, a peripheral decoration ring 4204 arranged so as to surround the rotating decorative body around the circular window facing the rotating decorative body 4003 is a round window structure. It is set as the structure made to rotate in the aspect different from rotation of the rotation decoration body 4003 independently of a part. By rotating the peripheral decoration ring 4204 in accordance with the rotation of the rotating decoration body 4003, the feeling of dynamism that appears when the handle 4102 is pulled can be further enhanced.
[Example 400B-4]: 7: In the gaming machine, the round window facing the rotating decorative body 4003 is provided with a shutter for opening and closing the round window, and with the start of the player participation effect provided by the pachinko machine 1 It opens and closes as it ends. If such a shutter opens to inform the judgment result of whether or not the player participation is permitted to the pachinko machine 1 side, the player will wait with an expectation whether the shutter will open or not. Can be suppressed.

  The fourth effect operation unit 400C has been described with the string 4202 as the operation tool. However, if the operation directionality (corresponding to the string direction) is the same, the other structure may be used instead of the string 4202. Can do. For example, the rotation of the drive wheel 4106 is driven by a rack gear that is externally operated with a pinion gear attached to the drive wheel 4106, and the rack gear is connected to an aircraft type handle arranged outside the pan unit 320 with a universal joint structure. A structure is conceivable in which the handle can be operated in all directions (corresponding to the limit region). In this case, a detection device (corresponding to the string direction detection device 4128) for detecting the operation direction is arranged around the handle shaft.
