Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a multiple winning device for a pachinko machine, in which a large number of winning holes are arranged side by side in a row on the lower part of a game board, and more specifically, a new winning device for electronically displaying each winning hole. It is related to the structure.

2. Description of the Related Art As is well known, a pachinko machine called an arepachi or the like has 16 winning openings arranged horizontally in a row below a game board surface, and pachinko balls flowing down on the playing board surface are the winning openings. When a player wins a prize with a predetermined combination, prize balls are released to the player or the variable winning device is opened. Therefore, numbers 1 to 16 or symbols or the like are displayed at the respective winning openings, and lamps for lighting and indicating that the prize is won are provided below the symbols or the like.

[0003]

However, with the above-mentioned structure, when a card for explaining the game contents to the player is put on the lower part of the front glass, the lamp is placed behind this card. There was a problem that it was hidden and the winning status could not be displayed. However, in the conventional structure, since the distance between the game board surface and the glass inner surface is as narrow as about 20 mm, it is not possible to provide a light source requiring a mounting space such as a lamp on the front wall surface of the winning opening. Therefore, the above problem could not be solved.

[0004]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned problems, and a large number of winning openings provided in a row can catch pachinko balls flowing down on the game board surface. The multi-win prize device provided so as to project further is characterized in that a lightning display means is provided on the front wall surface of each of the winning ports.

[0005]

With the thin electric light display means provided on the front wall surface of the winning opening, the winning situation in the multiple winning apparatus can be easily grasped by the electric display on the front wall surface. Since it is not necessary to provide a display area for numbers and a light source area such as a lamp above and below as in the prior art, the required vertical width for display can be reduced.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of a multi-win prize device for a pachinko machine according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows the front of the entire pachinko machine, and FIG. 2 shows a cross-section of the multi-winning winning device installed therein. In the figure, 1 is a game board on which a large number of nails, windmills, variable winning devices, etc. are planted, and 2 is a front glass, and pachinko balls flow down the space between the game board 1 and the front glass 2. 3 is a multi-successor prize chucker in which 16 prize holes 4, 4, 4 ... Are arranged side by side in a row, and the multi-successor prize chucker 3 is provided with partition walls 5, 5, 5 ... , 4 ... are sectioned and formed, and the winning holes 4, 4, 4 ... Are provided in the mounting holes 6 formed in the game board 1 so as to project above the surface of the game board 1. 7 is an electromagnetic sensor for detecting a prize ball provided behind each of the prize holes 4, 4, 4 ...
The pachinko balls that have won the prizes 4, 4 ... Operate the sensor 7 and fall into the prize ball case 8 provided on the back surface of the game board 1.

Then, the front wall surface 9 of the winning openings 4, 4, 4 ...
The electronic display means provided in the following is as follows. That is, the front decorative plate 11 is fixed to the front surface of the game board 1 by the screw 10, and the window holes 1 opened in a horizontal row on the upper side of the front decorative plate 11.
A transparent lens 13, 13, 13, ... Formed in a flat plate shape with an acrylic resin is fitted to the lenses 2, 12, 12, ..., On the back surface of the lens 13, 13, 13 ,.
A fixing plate 16 is fixed to the back surface of the front decorative plate 11 with screws 15 in order to fix the parts 3, 13 ... In addition, on the front surface of the corresponding plate 16, light shielding ribs 17, 17 ... Inserted between the lenses 13, 13, 13 ... Are integrally formed. The lenses 13, 13, 13 ... Are colored blue. The contact plate 16 is colored black.

Reference numeral 18 denotes a light emitting diode 1 on the front surface at regular intervals.
A power distribution board provided with 9, 19, 19 ...
Are screws 21 so that the light emitting diodes 19, 19, 19 ... May face the lower end surfaces of the lenses 13, 13, 13.
By this, it is fixed to the back surface of the front panel 11. 14 is the lens 1
Seal tape attached to the front of 3, 13, 13 ...
As shown in a part of FIG. 5, the seal tape 14 is printed with a figure in which the figure is made transparent and the periphery thereof is framed.

The lenses 13, 13, 13 ... Have the small holes 2 from the back in the order from the left one to the left one.
It is drawn by drilling 0, 20, 20 ... The light emitting diodes 19, 19, 19 ... Are integrally formed with a convex lens at the upper end thereof. When the light emitting diodes 19, 19, 19 ...
3, 13, 13 ... Enter the small holes 20, 20, 20 ...
The lens 13, 13, 13, ...
The drawn number is electronically displayed in front of, and the player can clearly see the lighting state of the number through the transparent portion of the seal tape 14.

In the above embodiment, the lenses 13, 13, 1
The numeral 3 is marked with dots by forming the small holes 20, 20, 20 ..., However, it is necessary to form irregularities or hollows that diffusely reflect light even if the holes are not necessarily formed by the small holes. Numbers or symbols may be displayed.

In another embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 6, the back surface 13 'of the lens 13 is formed into a slanted surface, and fine unevenness is formed on the slanted surface in a frosted glass shape so that light entering the lens 13 can be reflected by the back surface. The back surface 13 'by diffuse reflection at 13'
The entire surface is illuminated and the front surface of the lens 13 is 1 to 16
The number is transparently attached to the sticker tape 14 so that the number is electronically displayed on the front surface of the pachinko machine. In this way, the entire surface of the lens 13 may be diffusely reflected so that a part of the light can be transmitted forward by the seal tape 14 to display numbers, signals and the like.

[0012]

As described above, since the multi-win prize device for the pachinko machine according to the present invention is provided with the electronic display means in the narrow gap between the front wall surface of the winning opening and the front glass, the number thereof is shown. Alternatively, the winning situation can be easily grasped by the electronic display of symbols or the like, and the display can be made easy to see in a narrow range without requiring the vertical width for the electronic display. Therefore, there are various advantages such as a margin for sticking a card for explaining the game contents and the like below the electronically displayed portion.
