Description

【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、パチンコ店に設置されているパチンコ台、パチスロ等の遊技台における電波・磁気等を使用した不正行為・不正状態又は故障による異常状態を検出するパチンコ店における遊技台のセキュリティ装置に関する。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
従来のパチンコ店では、遊技台の入玉出玉をカウントするカウンタを設けているが、入玉、出玉がカウント出来ない等の機械的なトラブルが発生した場合、単にランプ表示、音声放送で報知するだけのものであった。又、電波や磁気などを発生させて遊技台・そのコンピュータシステムに異常又は不正の状態を引き起こす不正行為・不正状態の対策として、単に電波センサー、磁気センサーを取付けた装置があるが、異常電波、異常磁気を感知した時点で異常を報知するものであるが、外乱ノイズによる誤動作が多く、又誤動作をなくすように感度を低下させると異常検出ができなくなるといった問題点があった。
【０００３】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明が解決しようとする課題は、従来のこれらの問題点を解消し、磁気センサー・電波センサーを使用せずに不正状態・異常状態を精度よく検出でき、又磁気センサー・電波センサーの他のセンサーを取付けた場合は、誤作動少なく不正・異常の状態・原因をこれらセンサーの情報から的確に判断できるようにするパチンコ店におけるセキュリティ装置を提供することにある。

【００２３】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明の実施の形態に係るパチンコ店におけるセキュリティ装置では、入玉カウンタは遊技台の入玉数をカウントし、出玉カウンタは遊技台の出玉数をカウントしている。この入玉カウンタと出玉カウンタがカウントした玉数の値の相関の異常状態（入玉数が少なく，出玉が多くなる，所定時間の間の入玉数と出玉数の差・比率が正常な状態から逸脱している，入玉数・出玉数の時系列の変動が正常な値を逸脱している，等）を玉数異常検出手段が判断し、異常状態であれば異常信号を出力する。警報手段は異常信号を入力すると、音・電気信号・光・振動等の方法でその異常を人又はコンピュータに伝達する。
【００２４】
玉数異常検出手段の判断方法としては、入玉カウンタ、出玉カウンタを所定時間毎にサンプリングして、そのサンプリング時刻の間における入玉カウンタのカウンタ値の差値（入玉数）と出玉カウンタの数の差値（出玉の数）との大小を比較し、入玉数が出玉数より小さいとき（言い換えれば出玉数が入玉数より大きいとき）は異常とする方法が簡単で短かい計算時間で済む。この方法は、単なる入玉だけ又は出玉だけの単独の絶対値から判断する方法に比べて、不正・異常状態と正常状態との分別がより正確にできる。又電波センサー、磁気センサーのセンサ−を取付けていれば、この玉数異常検出手段による正常・異常の判断と電波感知信号・磁気感知信号を関連づけることができ、電波ノイズ・磁気ノイズによる誤動作か否か判別し易くなり、低感度でも電波異常と磁気異常との判別ができ易くなり、不正・異常の原因も特定でき易くなる。
【００２５】
上記した入玉カウンタ、出玉カウンタの値のサンプリングは一定時間毎行ってもよいし、ランダムに行ってもよいし、あるいは出玉数に応じてそのサンプリング間隔を決めることもできる。サンプリングタイミング及び玉数異常検出手段・警報手段はコンピュータを使用するのが実用的である。コンピュータで処理プログラムソフトを作動させて入力される入玉カウント値と出玉カウント値をデジタル処理して、その正常・異常もソフトで判断させる。その異常のレベル・相関性・関連性・時系列判断もソフト上できめ細かく行うのがより正確な結果を得ることができて好ましい。
【００２６】
また、電波センサー・磁気センサー等・不正方法の媒介方法のセンサーを設け、出玉異常検出手段と関連づけ、時系列の相関性を行うのがより正確な異常判断・原因特定上好ましい。その他のセンサーとしては、遊技台の前面ドアのドア開閉センサー・窓枠開閉センサー・ホッパーセンサー・止め打ちセンサー等がある。ドア開閉センサーは、パチンコ台のＲＯＭ交換を行う大当り連チャン異常・大当り出玉異常の検出に有効である。窓枠開閉センサーは、スタートチャッカー，役モノ不正による入賞なし大当りの検出に有効であり、電波センサーは電波を発生させてコンピュータを異常にさせての入賞異常，入賞なし大当り，入出玉数比異常に有効であり、磁石を使って入賞異常または入賞なし大当りに対しては磁気センサーが有効であり、止打ち異常に対しては止打ちセンサーが有効であり、パチスロにおけるホッパー払い出しによる入出玉数比異常，大当り出玉異常に対してはホッパーセンサーが有効となる。

【００４２】
この実施例では、パチンコ店１に設置したパチンコ台２の入玉センサー３ａ，出玉センサー３ｂ，大当りセンサー３ｃ，確率変動大当りセンサー３ｄ，回転センサー３ｅ，入賞センサー３ｆ及びサンド玉貸器の売上カウンタ３ｇ及び電波センサー３ｊ，磁気センサー３ｋ，止打センサー３ｌ，ドアセンサー３ｈ，窓枠開閉センサー３ｉから入玉数（信号），出玉数（信号），大当り信号，確率変動信号，回転信号，入賞信号，売上信号は各パチンコ台２の情報入力部４へ入力され、更に各パチンコ台２の情報入力部４の各データはコンピュータのＣＰＵ６に入力され、ＲＯＭ７に記憶されたソフトによって、これら信号を累積（回数加算；球数，回数計算）し、そのカウント値をメモリ部５へ書き込む。
【００４３】
最初から連続して信号を累積する値は、各情報累積メモリ５１の入玉カウンタ５１１，出玉カウンタ５１２，大当りカウンタ５１３，入賞カウンタ５１４，回転カウンタ５１５，売上カウンタ５１６，確変（確率変動）カウンタ５１７それぞれのカウンタメモリに記憶される。
【００４４】
又、大当り中の各センサーの信号の累積値（球数，回数）は、大当り中累積メモリ５２の入玉カウンタ５２１，出玉カウンタ５２２，入賞カウンタ５２４，回転カウンタ５２５，売上カウンタ５２６，確変カウンタ５２７のカウンタメモリに記憶する。確変中の各センサーの信号の累積値（球数，回数）は、確変中累積メモリ５３の入玉カウンタ５３１，出玉カウンタ５３２，大当りカウンタ５３３，入賞カウンタ５３４，回転カウンタ５３５，売上カウンタ５３６のカウンタメモリに記憶される。
【００４５】
又、１分間毎にソフトによって各センサーの信号の累積値の差数を計算し、１分間毎集計メモリ５４の入玉カウンタ５４１，出玉カウンタ５４２，大当りカウンタ５４３，入賞カウンタ５４４，回転カウンタ５４５，売上カウンタ５４６の各カウンタメモリに記憶される。又その時刻も時刻発生部９から入力されてそのカウント開始した時刻も関連づけて記憶される。
【００４６】
更に、大当り毎（１回目，２回目，３回目・・・・）に各センサーのカウント値を大当り毎集計メモリ５５の入玉カウンタ５５１，出玉カウンタ５５２，入賞カウンタ５５４，回転カウンタ５５５，売上カウンタ５５６のカウンタメモリにその大当り回数番号と関連づけて記憶する。
【００４７】
更に、外部センサーのドアセンサー３ｈ，窓枠開閉センサー３ｉ，電波センサー３ｊ，磁気センサー３ｋの作動信号（開閉信号）は、その発生時刻とともにＣＰＵ６によって外部センサメモリ５６のドア開閉メモリ５６１，窓枠開閉メモリ５６２，電波検出メモリ５６３，磁気検出メモリ５６４，止打メモリ５６５，ホッパメモリ５６６に記憶される。コンピュータのＣＰＵ６は、これらセンサーの入力信号によって、その種々の累積値を回数・時刻等を計算してメモリ部５へ書き込むとともに、これらの計算結果の値からその状態が異常か正常状態かの判断を、入玉カウント値、出玉カウント値等のカウンタの値及び外部センサメモリ５６のセンサー状態から下記の異常判断を行う。
【００４８】
▲１▼：通常入出玉数比値異常判断部
通常入出玉数比値計算及び通常入出玉数比異常判断、パチンコの大当り及び確率変動時を除いた通常状態における入玉カウンタ５１１と出玉カウンタ５１２の入玉数と出玉数の所定時間における数値の比（累積入玉数、累積出玉数の所定の時間のある時刻での値の差分の比）を通常入出玉数比値として計算する。所定時間として１分間をとっている。
【００４９】
通常入出玉数比値＝所定時間の間の出玉数／所定時間の間の入玉数
この通常入出玉数比値は、大当り、確率変動中でない通常時は４０％前後であり、出玉には多少のタイムラグがあるので１０分間の間の平均値をとる。この入出玉数比値が１００％（１．０）を超えた場合差玉（出玉−入玉）が増加して不正状態・異常状態と判断し、異常検出信号を発生させる。
【００５０】
▲２▼：確率変動入出玉数比値異常判断部
確率変動入出玉数比値計算及び確率変動入出玉数比異常パチンコ台において確変時の入玉数と出玉数の比の入出玉数比値は概ね１００％前後（８０〜１２０％）であり、確変中は大当りの確率が高くなる。大当りが発生して次の大当りが発生するまでの確率変動時間は約５分間程度である。従って本実施例では、確率変動入出玉数比値計算部では確変中累積メモリ５３の入玉カウンタ５３１と出玉カウンタ５３２とから５分間の平均の確変中の入出玉数比値（確率変動入出玉数比値）をとる。この平均の確率変動入出玉数比値が所定の設定値（実施例では２００％）を超えると、不正・異常とみなし異常検出信号を発生する。
【００５１】
▲３▼：入賞なし大当り判断部
入賞なし大当り、大当り信号が入力されると、その所定の短かい時間前（実施例では３秒前）入賞信号があったか否かを各情報累積メモリ５１の大当りカウンタ５１３と入賞カウンタ５１４とから判断し、入賞信号がなく大当りが発生すれば不正とみなし、異常検出信号を発生させる。これは、ほとんどのパチンコ台はスタートチャッカーに玉が入賞した時点でデジタルが回転するか、役モノが開放する。そのデジタルが揃うか、開放した役モノに玉が入ることにより大当りが発生するからである。
【００５２】
▲４▼：止打ち異常判断部
パチンコ遊技台の最高打ち出しは１分間に１００個以内と決められており、実際に遊技される場合でも、リーチなどの遊技停止時間があるとしても平均的には１分間に８０個以上は発射されている。この打出した玉数は入玉としてカウントされるので、入玉の推移を常時監視する。１分間の１分間毎集計メモリ５４の入玉カウンタ５４１の入玉数が一定期間連続して設定値を下回った場合に（例えば５分連続で５０個以下の場合など）不正止打ちとみなし異常検出信号を発する。
【００５３】
▲５▼：入賞異常判断部
遊技台の種類により平均的な入賞個数は決まる。（通常の状態で打出し（入玉）１００個につき入賞は最高８回程度である）
しかし、スタートチャッカー付近の釘状態によっては入賞の個数にバラツキがでる。そこで一定期間入賞個数を入賞カウンタ５１４から平均分析する。その平均が設定値を超えた場合に異常検出信号を発する。（１００個の打出し毎の入賞個数をカウントし、その１０回（任意）分の平均が設定値（例えば１．５倍の１２個）を超えた場合に不正とみなす。）
また、バラツキの大小は遊技台の釘調整が可能となる。
【００５４】
▲６▼：大当り出玉異常判断部
遊技台の種類により大当り中の出玉２０００個から２５００個程度は決まる。大当り中の信号が出力されている間の出玉を大当り毎集計メモリ５５の出玉カウンタ５５２から常時監視し、あらかじめ設定されている値（例えば２５００個）を超えた場合に不正とみなし異常検出信号を発する。大当り終了から最後の玉がでるまではタイムラグがあるため遅延時間をとる。
【００５５】
遅延時間のとり方
１．３０秒から２分程度固定された時間をあらかじめ設定する。
【００５６】
２．大当り終了後、任意に設定した時間（１０〜３０秒）以内に出玉検出しなくなるまで遅延時間をとる。
【００５７】
▲７▼：大当りパンク異常判断部
上記６項において、出玉が設定された値（例えば３００個）より少ない場合にトラブルとして異常検出信号を発する。
【００５８】
▲８▼：大当り連チャン異常判断部
遊技台によって確率変動中の大当り回数が定められている。以下のように確率変動中の大当り回数を確変中累積メモリ５３の大当りカウンタ５３３から監視する事により不正を検出する。これらの異常判断部で、種々の点から玉数からの異常を判断する。
【００５９】
▲９▼：外部センサーと玉異常との関連性判断部
更に、これらの結果は、外部センサーの感知状態（ドア開閉，窓枠開閉，磁気感知，電波感知，ホッパー感知等の状態）を時刻とともに記憶した外部センサメモリ５６の状態と照合して、その関連性（相関性）を判断して、相関性を確認できれば又は有意であれば、その結果の情報を警報装置１０に送ってモニターディスプレイ１０ｄに出力表示し、又スピーカー１０ａで警報音を発し、点滅警報灯を点滅させ、監視員が持っているバイブレータ１０ｃを作動させる。
【００６０】
以上の様に、単なる入玉・出玉の玉数のみで異常・不正を判断するのではなく、入玉・出玉の玉数の相関性を判断して異常・不正を判断するので、遊技で起る正常な状態と、不正行為による不正・異常とを区別し易くして正確な警報を与えることができる。特に、電波センサー，磁気センサー，遊技台のドアセンサー，窓枠センサー等の玉を感知するものでない他のセンサーと組み合せればその因果が明確に分り、その不正・異常がより明確に分るとともに、その原因まで正確に特定できるようになる。特に入玉数と出玉数の入出玉数比値，大小，差数に基づく入玉・出玉の異常・不正はその相関性の一つの有力な方法となる。又入賞センサー，大当りセンサーと各センサーの信号の相関性、あるいは所定時間の絶対玉数の異常を組み合せることで更に正常，異常を区別し易くできる。

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
In the security device in the pachinko parlor according to the embodiment of the present invention, the ball counter counts the number of balls on the gaming table, and the ball counter counts the number of balls on the game table. Abnormal condition of the correlation between the number of balls counted by the entrance counter and the exit counter (the number of entrances is small and the number of exits is large. The ball number abnormality detecting means judges that the deviation from the normal state, the time-series fluctuation of the number of balls entered and the number of balls deviated from the normal value, etc. Is output. When the alarm means inputs an abnormal signal, the alarm means transmits the abnormality to a person or a computer by a method such as sound, electric signal, light, vibration or the like.
[0024]
As a judgment method of the ball number abnormality detection means, the entrance counter and the exit ball counter are sampled every predetermined time, and the difference value (number of entrance balls) of the entrance counter between the sampling times and the exit ball Compare the difference in the number of counters (number of balls) and if the number of balls is smaller than the number of balls (in other words, when the number of balls is larger than the number of balls) And a short calculation time. This method can more accurately discriminate between the incorrect / abnormal state and the normal state than the method of judging from the single absolute value of only the incoming ball or the outgoing ball. If a radio wave sensor or magnetic sensor is attached, the normality / abnormality judgment by this ball number abnormality detection means and the radio wave detection signal / magnetic detection signal can be correlated. This makes it easy to discriminate between a radio wave abnormality and a magnetic abnormality even with low sensitivity, and it is easy to identify the cause of fraud or abnormality.
[0025]
Sampling of the values of the above-mentioned entrance counter and exit counter may be performed at regular intervals, may be performed randomly, or the sampling interval may be determined according to the number of exits. It is practical to use a computer for the sampling timing and the ball number abnormality detecting means / alarm means. The processing program software is operated on a computer, and the incoming ball count value and the outgoing ball count value that are input are digitally processed, and the normality / abnormality is also determined by the software. It is preferable that the level, correlation, relevance, and time series judgment of the abnormality be finely performed on the software because a more accurate result can be obtained.
[0026]
In addition, it is preferable to provide a radio wave sensor, a magnetic sensor, etc., or a sensor for a fraudulent method, and associate it with the outgoing ball abnormality detection means to perform time-series correlation for more accurate abnormality determination and cause identification. Other sensors include door opening / closing sensors, window frame opening / closing sensors, hopper sensors, and stop-on sensors for front doors of game machines. The door open / close sensor is effective in detecting a big hit consecutive change abnormality and a big hitting ball abnormality in which the ROM of the pachinko machine is exchanged. The window frame open / close sensor is effective for detecting the winning jackpot without winning due to the start chucker or illegal role, and the radio wave sensor generates a radio wave that causes the computer to malfunction, winning anomalies without winning, a winning jackpot without winning, or a ratio of the number of balls in and out The magnetic sensor is effective for winning anomalies with or without a prize using magnets, and the stopping sensor is effective for abnormal stopping. The hopper sensor is effective for abnormal and big hitting ball abnormalities.

[0048]
▲ 1 ▼ ： Normal entry / exit number ratio abnormality judgment part
Normal entrance / exit ball ratio ratio calculation and normal entrance / exit ball ratio abnormality judgment, pachinko jackpot and probability change, the entrance counter 511 and the exit counter 512 in the normal number of entrance and exit balls at a predetermined time A ratio of numerical values (a ratio of a difference between values at a certain time of the accumulated number of balls and the accumulated number of balls) is calculated as a normal number of balls. One minute is taken as the predetermined time.
[0049]
Ordinary number of balls in / out = number of balls in a given time / number of balls in a given time
The normal ratio of the number of incoming and outgoing balls is around 40% in the normal time when the jackpot and the probability is not fluctuating, and since there is a slight time lag in the outgoing balls, an average value for 10 minutes is taken. If the ratio of the number of incoming / outgoing balls exceeds 100% (1.0), the difference ball (outgoing ball-entering ball) increases and it is determined as an illegal state / abnormal state and an abnormality detection signal is generated.
[0050]
(2): Stochastic fluctuation number of balls entering / exiting ratio value abnormality judgment part
In the probability fluctuation input / output ball ratio ratio calculation and the probability fluctuation input / output ball ratio abnormal pachinko machine, the ratio of the number of incoming and outgoing balls at the time of probability change is approximately 100% (80-120%). During probability change, the probability of a big hit is high. The probability variation time from the occurrence of a big hit to the occurrence of the next big hit is about 5 minutes. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the probability fluctuation input / output ball ratio ratio calculation unit calculates the average number of incoming / outgoing balls during the five-minute probability change (probability fluctuation input / output) from the ball counter 531 and the ball counter 532 of the cumulative memory 53 during the probability change. The number of balls). When this average probability fluctuation input / output ball ratio value exceeds a predetermined set value (200% in the embodiment), it is regarded as illegal / abnormal and an abnormality detection signal is generated.
[0051]
(3): No winning prize jackpot
When a big hit without winning a prize or a big hit signal is inputted, it is judged from the big hit counter 513 and the winning counter 514 of each information accumulation memory 51 whether or not there is a winning signal before a predetermined short time (3 seconds before in the embodiment). If there is no winning signal and a big hit occurs, it is considered illegal and an abnormality detection signal is generated. This is because most of the pachinko machines rotate when the ball wins the start chucker or the role is released. This is because a big hit occurs when the digitals are arranged or balls are placed in the open role.
[0052]
(4): Stoppage abnormality determination section
The maximum number of pachinko machines that can be launched is determined to be 100 or less per minute. Even if the game is actually played, even if there is a game stoppage time such as reach, an average of 80 or more will be fired per minute. ing. Since the number of balls hit is counted as an incoming ball, the transition of the incoming ball is constantly monitored. When the number of balls in the ball counter 541 of the total memory 54 for 1 minute falls below the set value for a certain period of time (for example, when the number is 50 or less for 5 minutes continuously) A detection signal is issued.
[0053]
▲ 5 ▼: Prize winning judgment section
The average number of winnings is determined by the type of game stand. (Maximum of 8 wins per 100 hits (entering balls) under normal conditions)
However, the number of winnings varies depending on the state of the nail near the start chucker. Therefore, an average analysis of the number of winnings for a certain period is performed from the winning counter 514. When the average exceeds the set value, an abnormality detection signal is issued. (The number of winnings for every 100 shots is counted, and when the average of 10 times (arbitrary) exceeds a set value (for example, 12 times 1.5), it is regarded as illegal.)
In addition, the size of the variation can be adjusted with the nail of the game stand.
[0054]
▲ 6 ▼: Big hitting ball abnormality judgment part
Depending on the type of game stand, the number of outstanding balls from 2000 to 2500 is determined. The number of balls that are output during the big hit signal is constantly monitored from the output counter 552 of the jackpot total memory 55, and when it exceeds a preset value (for example, 2500), it is regarded as illegal and an abnormality is detected. Send a signal. There is a time lag from the end of the big hit until the last ball comes out.
[0055]
How to set the delay time
1. Set a fixed time in advance from 30 seconds to 2 minutes.
[0056]
2. After the big hit, a delay time is taken until no ball is detected within an arbitrarily set time (10 to 30 seconds).
[0057]
▲ 7 ▼: Big hit puncture abnormality judgment part
In the above item 6, an abnormality detection signal is issued as a trouble when the number of balls is less than a set value (for example, 300).
[0058]
▲ 8 ▼: Jackpot consecutive Chang abnormality judgment part
The number of jackpots during the probability variation is determined by the game stand. As described below, fraud is detected by monitoring the number of jackpots during probability variation from the jackpot counter 533 of the cumulative memory 53 during probability variation. These abnormality determination units determine abnormality from the number of balls from various points.
[0059]
(9): Relevance judgment section between external sensor and ball abnormality
Furthermore, these results are collated with the state of the external sensor memory 56 that stores the sensing state of the external sensor (door opening / closing, window frame opening / closing, magnetic sensing, radio wave sensing, hopper sensing, etc.) along with the time. If the correlation is confirmed or significant, the information of the result is sent to the alarm device 10 to be output and displayed on the monitor display 10d, and the speaker 10a emits an alarm sound and blinks. The warning light blinks and the vibrator 10c possessed by the supervisor is activated.
[0060]
As described above, it is not a matter of judging the abnormality / injustice based on the number of balls in and out of the ball. Therefore, it is possible to easily distinguish between a normal state occurring in the case of an illegal act and an anomaly caused by an illegal act, and an accurate alarm can be given. In particular, when combined with other sensors that do not detect balls, such as radio wave sensors, magnetic sensors, game stand door sensors, window frame sensors, etc., the cause and effect can be clearly understood, and the fraud and abnormality can be clearly understood. , You will be able to pinpoint the cause. In particular, abnormalities / injustices in entering and exiting balls based on the ratio of the number of entering and exiting balls, the ratio of the number of entering and exiting balls, the size, and the number of differences are one effective method of the correlation. In addition, it is possible to further distinguish between normal and abnormal by combining the correlation between the signals of the winning sensor, the big hit sensor and each sensor, or the abnormality of the absolute number of balls for a predetermined time.
