  As shown in FIG. 1, the detection switch 22 of the winning device 20 and the V ball detection switch provided in the specific V ball discharge path 25 of the ball guiding means 50 are related to the second starting port 9 of the game board 1, and the detection switch When the ball is detected, the rotating body of the second start port 9 is rotated for the set time or the set number of times, and when the start ball is won, the special winning device 10 at the lower part is opened and closed for the set time or the set number of times to win the big hit To do. For example, the chulip-type opening / closing wing piece of the special winning device 10 continues to open and close 10 times to give a winning opportunity for a game ball to win.

Next, a pachinko machine according to the present invention will be described.
The claw portion 41a of the ball retaining piece 41 of the ball retaining means 40 of the winning device 20 is always in a state of advancing directly under the detection switch 22 to receive the ball, and the winning ball entering the detection switch 22 is received and stopped. It becomes a state. When one piece is received by the claw portion 41a of the ball stop piece 41, the subsequent ball falls, but hits the stop ball that stops at the detection switch 22, and is distributed to the left and right, and is awarded to the normal winning paths 27 and 28 on the lower left and right. To do.
When the first starting port 7 is opened and closed, the game ball enters the first starting port 7 and the symbol of the second symbol display device 5 changes in the order of left symbol, right symbol, and middle symbol, and fluctuates at a predetermined set time. Stops and the symbol changes are confirmed. When the stopped symbol becomes a specific symbol combination, for example, “7, 7, 7”, the ball stopping piece 41 of the ball stopping means 40 is retracted by the solenoid 43, and the ball stopping is released. The stopping ball falls.
When the ball retaining piece 41 is released by being retracted by the solenoid 43, the lower ball guiding means 50 is actuated by the solenoid 53 in the initial stage so that the ball receiving port 52 moves forward and waits and falls to the ball receiving port 52. The sphere is received, retracted with a slight delay, and discharged to a specific V-sphere discharge path 25 located in the lower part of the opening 24. And after discharging | emitting 1 ball | bowl, it returns to the original advance position with a solenoid. If the V ball receiving slide body 51 is advanced and retracted to the ball receiving position in a state where the upper ball stop piece 41 is retracted, the subsequent falling balls are continuously discharged to the specific V ball discharge path 25 and continuously. A specific profit state can be assigned to the. Further, when the upper ball retaining piece 41 is retracted and the V-sphere housing slide body 51 is retracted, if the subsequent ball falls from the detection switch 22, it passes in front of the V-sphere housing slide body 51. The ball-shaped ball distribution guide part 26 falls to the lower mountain-shaped ball distribution guide part 26 and is distributed to the left and right by the ball distribution guide part 26, and is transferred into the normal winning ports 27 and 28 on both sides of the ball distribution guide part 26. When the detection switch 22 counts, the stop piece of the upper ball stop means is returned to the initial position, that is, the lower portion of the stop ball detection switch.

  In the pachinko machine according to the embodiment, the pachinko balls discharged to the specific V ball discharge path are processed as V winning balls (specific ball passing balls). Due to the interaction between the ball stationary piece and the ball guiding means, the second starting port is brought into an operating state as a starting ball detection state. That is, the second starting port 9 can accept the starting ball by the generation of the specific area passing ball. If a pachinko ball wins a prize at the starting port while the second starting port 9 of the rotating body can be received, a special profit state occurs. Due to the occurrence of the special profit state, the specific open / close prize winning device 10 repeats the opening operation a predetermined number of times. Therefore, the relationship between the ball stopping means and the ball guiding means is such that after the ball stopping means releases the stopped ball due to the occurrence of the hit in the symbol display device, the ball guiding means 50 is operated after waiting for the time to receive the ball, The sphere is guided to the V (specific) sphere by the sphere guiding means. The stopping means and the ball guiding means are not synchronized (in the long term, they are synchronized in a broad concept).

Although the above embodiment was shown, this invention is not limited to this form, A various form can be implemented in the range which does not deviate from the summary of this invention. In the above embodiment, the ball stopping means is related to the symbol display device, but is not limited to this. For example, when the ball passes through a specific gate or wins a specific winning device, the ball stopping means is released. You may do it.
In addition, it is good also as a structure which attaches to the said winning device 20 the 2nd starting ball | bowl detection switch which detects the ball | bowl accommodated by the V ball | bowl accommodation slide body 51 and guide | induced to the V ball | bowl discharge path 25 as a 2nd starting ball | bowl directly. Timer means for causing the movable wing piece of the special winning device 10 to be opened many times in a state beneficial to the player or opened for a long time when the second starting ball detection switch detects a starting ball. Or a counting means may be provided.
In addition, a plurality of LEDs in the LED display unit 36 provided on the wall surface of the winning device are driven by a sequential display circuit that sequentially switches and lights when a ball wins at the first start port 7, and after a predetermined time or an indefinite time. When the stopped LED becomes a predetermined LED, the ball stop piece 41 may be driven to the stop state, or the ball stop piece 41 in the stop state may be opened.
Further, when the ball is stopped by the ball stop piece 41, the subsequent ball is distributed and guided to the first ball guide path by the ball stopped by the ball stop piece 41, and the ball is stopped by the ball stop piece 41. Even when the ball is not in the state, the ball guiding means 50 serves as a ball passing path setting means so that the subsequent balls falling into the winning device are distributed and guided to the first ball guiding path in the same manner as described above. It may be configured.
In this case, the ball guiding means 50 (passage path setting means) is controlled to be switched to the second mode by the solenoid 53 under predetermined conditions, and is different from the first ball guiding path, for example, a special winning ball detection switch, a specific area detection, and the like. A configuration may be adopted in which a sphere is guided to a second sphere guide path provided with a switch, a start sphere detection switch (for example, third type start detection means), and the like.
