Description

  The present invention relates to a variable winning device such as a special variable winning device in a ball game machine represented by a pachinko gaming machine.

In one kind of so-called seven machine type, two kinds called a feather type, and three kinds of pachinko gaming machines called a right-hand type, various components such as an accessory device are attached to the game board. A typical example is a variable winning device such as a special variable winning device equipped with a light emitting source such as a lamp or LED (light emitting diode) or a sensor in addition to an electrically movable device such as a solenoid or a motor (for example, Patent Document 1). The special variable prize winning device includes an attacker door that opens and closes a large window-shaped big prize opening called a so-called attacker, and a special game mode, i.e., the inside of the attacker with the door opened due to occurrence of a big hit state, In addition to the winning ball outlet that leads the ball to the back side and counts the number of balls, there is a special winning port called the so-called V winning port. It is supposed to continue.
In addition, as a jackpot game mode, the attacker has intermittently released a predetermined number of times, for example, with one type of machine, there is a maximum of 16 opening, and a maximum of 10 can be won by one opening, and a certain time has passed. The case is supposed to close. In the case of the two types of aircraft, there are a maximum of 15 rounds, and one round can be opened up to 18 times, and it is continued by winning in the V prize opening. In the case of Type 3 aircraft, the maximum number of releases is 16 times, and the maximum number is 10 at a time or one time is closed, and there is no continuation condition. It is a prize entry to a prize opening or a specific prize area.
JP-A-7-116309

However, the attacker has a V prize opening in the back, and the winning rate for the V prize opening is set to less than 1/3, but the game ball that entered the attacker will immediately enter the V prize opening. Conventionally, it has been difficult for a player to visually recognize whether a ball has entered the V prize opening. In addition, there is a concave chamber shape in which the attacker is recessed downward, and there is a V prize opening in the lower part of the bottom. In such a case, it is more difficult to visually check whether a ball has entered the V prize opening. .
Since the ball placed on the attacker door enters the attacker with the attacker door tilted to the front side, conventionally, the position of the ball placed on the attacker door inclined to the front side enters the V prize opening. It was unspecified.
Furthermore, conventionally, since the ball that entered the attacker is not visible immediately after exiting the winning ball outlet, it has been unattractive as a game for the player.
As described above, when the number of balls entering the attacker is limited, it has been disadvantageous for the player because the ball has hit the attacker only up to the limit. It was.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a member that guides a winning ball from an opening / closing member that opens in a big hit state to a continuous winning opening in a ball game machine such as a pachinko gaming machine, so that a player can enter the continuous winning opening. An object of the present invention is to provide a variable winning device that makes it possible to easily recognize a winning. Then, the present invention provides a part for guiding the game ball to the continuous prize opening side on the opening / closing member in the open state so that the winning ball entering the continuous prize opening can be viewed on the opening / closing member in advance, For players, the path to the ball outlet is lengthened and the time for the player to watch the winning ball is lengthened to increase interest, or the possibility of winning even if the number of balls is limited. It is also intended to be advantageous.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the invention of claim 1 is provided with a variable winning device having a continuous winning opening that opens in the inner wall of an attacker room that can be opened and closed by an opening and closing member, and the opening and closing member based on the occurrence of a special game mode. The special game mode is granted by detecting that a game ball flowing into the attacker room from the open / close member in the open state has entered the continuous winning opening. In the ball game machine, the variable prize device has the continuous prize opening provided in the center of the upper part of the back wall of the attacker room, protruding forward from the lower part of the continuous prize opening, and the front end approaching the opening / closing member. A continuous payout opening guide member is formed, and a game ball that flows into the attacker room from above the openable opening / closing member is placed on the continuous payout opening guide member, and then the continuous winning opening is provided. On the other hand, when the opening / closing member is in the open state, the guide portion for guiding the game ball riding on a predetermined position on the opening / closing member to the continuous winning opening guide member is opened / closed A first winning passage having a continuous winning ball detecting means in a path to a winning ball outlet opening downward and a lower end portion on the back side of the attacker chamber. And a second flow path having a winning ball inlet for allowing the winning ball to flow again into the attacker chamber, and the winning ball that has flowed into the continuous winning opening is transferred to either the first flow path side or the second flow path side. A flow path switching means for switching to flow is provided, and the continuous winning opening has a bottom surface with an inclined surface that is lowered toward the second flow path, and the flow path switching means Able to move forward and backward above the bottom A flow path switching member having an upper surface with an inclined surface descending toward the first flow channel side, and a winning ball is caused to flow to the first flow channel side when moving forward by the inclined surface of the upper surface; The winning ball is caused to flow to the second flow path side, and the continuous winning opening guide member is provided with a pair of bars in parallel.

Here, as the ball game machine, a pachinko game machine is representative, but other ball game machines may be used.
In addition, the variable prize winning device is a special variable prize winning device, in which an open / close member by an attacker door is provided in a horizontally long attacker room which is an attacker (large prize opening). There is a continuous prize opening as a V prize opening opening in the section.
In addition, as a special game mode, it is a big hit state, and as described above, the attacker is intermittently released a predetermined number of times, for example, in the type 1 machine, there is a maximum of 16 times of release, and a maximum of 10 per time of release. It is possible to win up to pieces and closes after a certain period of time.
Further, the right to continue the special game mode is that the opening operation of the next attacker is ensured on condition that the game ball flowing into the attacker room enters the V winning opening (continuous winning opening).
The continuous winning opening guide member is typically a bowl-shaped member on which a game ball rolls, but may be anything such as a pair of left and right bars provided in parallel.
In addition, for example, as a predetermined position on the opening / closing member, a center position can be given as a representative one, but other positions may be used.
Furthermore, examples of the guiding portion include a pair of left and right parallel ribs and a large number of ribs arranged in the left and right direction, but may be anything such as a groove.
In addition, for example, as the first flow path, there may be mentioned one in which continuous winning ball detecting means is provided at a winning ball outlet opening extending toward one side and opening downward, but the flow path shape is arbitrary. It is.
Furthermore, as the second flow path, one that extends toward the other side and has a winning ball inlet opening inside the attacker chamber may be mentioned, but the flow path shape is arbitrary.
Further, for example, the flow path switching means includes a solenoid using a drive source, but an electric motor, a cylinder unit, or the like may be used as the drive source.
Further, for example, as the inclined surface of the bottom face of the continuous winning opening, there is a shape that goes down toward the first flow path side that extends to one side, but the main point is a shape that goes down toward the side where the first flow path extends. It ’s fine.
In addition, as the inclined surface of the upper surface of the flow path switching member, a shape that decreases toward the second flow path side that extends to the other side may be mentioned, but the main point is that it is a shape that decreases toward the side where the second flow path extends. good.

  As described above, according to the first aspect of the present invention, the variable prize winning device is provided with the continuous prize opening at the center of the upper part of the back wall of the attacker room, and protrudes forward from the lower part of the continuous prize winning opening and has the front end portion. A continuous winning opening guide member extending so as to approach the opening / closing member that opens and closes the attacker chamber is formed, and a game ball that flows into the attacker chamber from above the opened opening / closing member is placed on the continuous winning opening guide member Since the game is guided to the continuous winning award, at least one of the game balls flowing into the attacker room from the open state opening / closing member in the special gaming mode protrudes forward from the lower part of the continuous winning award. It is guided by being placed on the provided continuous winning opening guide member and wins the continuous winning opening. Therefore, the player can easily visually recognize the winning in the continuous winning opening. Further, since the variable winning device is provided with a guiding portion for guiding the game ball placed at a predetermined position to the continuous winning opening guide member on the open / close member in the open state according to the special game mode, the open state according to the special game mode The game ball placed on the guide part provided on the opening and closing member of the game will win the continuous prize opening through the continuous prize opening guide member, that is, when the game ball is placed on the guide part on the opening and closing member, The player can visually recognize in advance that the player will subsequently win a winning prize. Therefore, the player can easily know at which position on the opening / closing member the game ball is placed in the continuous winning opening.

In addition, the continuous winning opening is opened at the lower end of the back side of the attacker room with the first flow path having the continuous winning ball detecting means in the path to the winning ball outlet opening that opens downward, and the winning ball is returned to the attacker room again. Since the variable winning device communicates with the second flow path having the winning ball inlet to be introduced, when the winning ball flows from the continuous winning opening to the first flow path, the winning ball is detected by the continuous winning ball detecting means. Thus, when a special game mode continuation right is generated and a winning ball flows from the continuous winning opening to the second flow path, the winning ball returns to the attacker room from the winning ball inlet. Therefore, when a winning ball flows from the continuous winning port to the second flow path, the path of the winning ball from the once entering the lower end on the back side of the attacker room to the winning ball outlet opening in the inside is long. Therefore, the interest is enhanced by increasing the time for the player to watch the winning ball.
Further, since it takes time for the winning ball to return to the attacker room again through the second flow path, even if the number of balls is limited, for example, the limited number of balls pass through the second flow path to the attacker room. Since the number of games may rarely enter the continuous prize opening during the time it takes to return to the time, the interest of the game will also increase from this aspect.

  In addition, since the variable winning device is provided with the flow switching unit that performs switching operation so that the winning ball flowing into the continuous winning port flows through either the first flow channel side or the second flow channel side, for example, the flow channel switching unit In a state where the winning ball is switched to the first flow path side in advance, the winning ball passes through the first flow path from the continuous winning opening, and the continuous winning ball detecting means detects the right to continue the special game mode. After the occurrence, the channel switching means is switched so that the winning ball flows to the second channel side, and the winning ball that has entered the continuous winning port returns to the attacker room from the winning ball inlet through the second channel again. I can make it come.

  Further, the flow path switching means includes a flow path switching member that is capable of moving forward and backward above the bottom face of the continuous prize opening and having an upper surface with an inclined surface that is lowered toward the first flow path side, and is advanced by the inclined surface of the upper surface. Sometimes the winning ball is made to flow to the first channel side, and the winning ball is made to flow to the second channel side by the bottom surface of the continuous winning port when retreating. In this state, the winning ball that has entered the continuous winning opening flows through the first channel for acquiring the continuation right by the inclined surface that descends toward the first channel on the upper surface of the channel switching member. In addition, when the flow path switching member is moved backward from the continuous prize opening, the second flow path is formed by the inclined surface where the winning ball entering the continuous prize opening falls toward the second flow path side of the bottom of the continuous prize opening. It begins to flow.

According to the present invention, it is possible for a player to easily predict a winning to a continuous winning opening simply by looking at the continuous winning opening guiding member protruding toward the front side. In addition, when it is seen that the ball has been placed on the guide portion on the open / close member in the open state, it is possible to predict in advance that it will surely win the continuous winning opening subsequently. In addition, the player can easily determine which position on the open / close member in the open state the game ball that has entered the continuous winning opening.
In addition, when a winning ball flows from the continuous winning port to the second flow path, the path of the winning ball from the once entering the lower end of the attacker room to the winning ball outlet opening inside thereof is long. Therefore, the interest is enhanced by increasing the time for the player to watch the winning ball. Even if there is a limit on the number of winning balls, it is possible to add more gaming balls to the variable winning device while flowing from the winning ball inlet to the inside of the attacker room through the second flow path. Yes.

A flow path switching means 50 is disposed further on the back side of the V winning opening 42. The flow path switching means 50 has a flow path switching member 51 that moves forward and is located below the V winning opening 42, and this flow path switching member 51 is the same as the inclined surface 46 of the first flow path 43. An inclined surface 52 is provided on the upper surface.
The flow path switching member 51 is moved forward and backward by a solenoid 53 and its plunger 54 provided on the back side of the winning ball flow path member 40.

In addition, a winning ball outlet 56 is opened at the lower end of the back wall of the attacker chamber 41, and a winning ball detecting means 59 is attached to a winning ball outlet 58 that opens below the outflow passage 57 on the back side. .
As shown in FIG. 5, a bowl-shaped V winning opening guide member 61 is formed on the inner wall of the attacker chamber 41 as a continuous winning opening guide member protruding forward from the lower portion of the V winning opening 42. Yes.
The V winning opening guide member 61 extends so that the front end portion approaches the lower portion of the attacker door 12 and smoothly guides the game ball from the opened attacker door 12 to the V winning opening 42 as shown in the figure. Is.

Further, a guiding portion 62 is formed at the center of the back surface of the attacker door 12 in the opened state, and is positioned in front of the bowl-shaped V winning opening guide member 61 and on the extension thereof.
The guide portion 62 is formed by forming three low ribs 64, 64, 64 between the left and right high ribs 63, 63 so as to correspond to the bowl shape of the V prize opening guide member 61.

A flow path 65 is also provided on the back side of the special symbol start port 13, and the winning ball outlet port 66 that opens to one side of the flow channel 65 is a special symbol that also serves as a winning ball detection means. A start detection means 67 is attached.

A game mode by the pachinko gaming machine configured as described above will be described below.
First, for example, when a game ball that is thrown into the game area wins a special symbol start opening 7, a special symbol display unit 4 can change a special symbol by a plurality of pieces of identification information, that is, a three-digit number or the like. Display starts. When the game ball passes through the normal symbol start gate 8, variable display of the normal symbol by a one-digit number or the like is started in the normal symbol display unit 17 of the variable winning device unit 10.
When the special symbol display mode displayed on the special symbol display unit 4 is the same in all three digits, a special game mode, that is, a big hit state is generated. When the big hit state is reached, the attacker door 12 of the variable winning device unit 10 is opened for a predetermined time. Further, when the stop pattern of the normal symbol displayed on the normal symbol display unit 17 is, for example, a symbol “7”, the lower door 14 of the variable winning device unit 10 opens for a predetermined time.

Next, the jackpot state will be described.
In the big hit state, as shown in an enlarged view in FIG. 5, at least one game ball that flows into the attacker 11 from the opened attacker door 12 protrudes into the attacker chamber 41 and has a bowl-shaped V prize opening guide. Since it is placed on the member 61 and guided to the back, the V winning opening 42 is won.
For this reason, even if the player does not look into the back of the attacker 11, the player can easily confirm the winning to the V winning opening 42 only by looking at the bowl-shaped V winning opening guiding member 61 protruding toward the front side. It becomes.
In addition, the game ball placed on the guide portion 62 having a bowl shape by the left and right high ribs 63, 63 provided in the central portion on the opened attacker door 12 has a V winning opening guide member 61 continuous on the back side thereof. Go through and win the V prize opening 42.
For this reason, when the player sees that the game ball is placed on the guiding portion 62 on the center of the opened attacker door 12, the player is sure to win the V winning opening 42 subsequently. It can be predicted in advance.
In addition, the player can easily determine which position on the opened attacker door 12 the game ball is placed in the V winning opening 42.

By the way, when the game ball first wins the V winning opening 42, at this time, the flow path switching member 51 is connected to the back of the V winning opening 42 via the solenoid 53 and its plunger 54 as shown in FIG. Since the advancing ball moves forward downward, the winning ball rolls to the first flow path 43 side by the inclined surface 52 on the upper surface of the flow path switching member 51, and further rolls on the inclined surface 46 on the bottom surface of the first flow path 43. It is derived downward from the winning ball outlet 45.
At this time, the winning ball is detected by the continuous winning ball detecting means 47 of the winning port outlet 45, and the right to continue the opening and closing operation of the attacker door 12 is given.
At the same time, the flow path switching member 51 is moved backward to the back of the V winning opening 42 as shown in FIG. 4 via the solenoid 53 and its plunger 54.
Therefore, the winning ball that has won the V winning port 42 thereafter rolls toward the second flow path 44 by the inclined surface 49 below, and the ball comes out from the winning ball inlet 48 to the attacker chamber 41.

As described above, when the second ball or later enters the V winning opening 42, the player wins the winning ball until the ball comes out from the winning ball inlet 48 to the attacker chamber 41 through the second flow path 44. Because it takes a long time to watch, it will be interesting.
Further, in the case where the number of balls entering the attacker 11 is limited, for example, at the time until the limited number of balls passes through the second flow path 44 and returns from the winning ball inlet 48 to the attacker chamber 41, sometimes, Since game balls may further enter the attacker 11, the interest of the game is enhanced.

In the above embodiment, the ball game machine is a pachinko game machine, but the present invention is not limited to this, and may be another ball game machine.
Further, in the embodiment, the V winning opening is provided in the center of the back of the attacker and the guiding portion is provided in the central part of the opened attacker door. For example, the V winning opening is provided on one side from the central portion of the attacker. In the case of being provided with an offset, the guide portion may be similarly offset from the center portion on the opened attacker door to the one side.
Furthermore, the configuration of the variable winning device other than the one according to the present invention is arbitrary, and it is needless to say that the specific detailed structure and the like can be appropriately changed.

It is a front view showing a schematic configuration of a game area on the surface of a game board of a pachinko gaming machine as an example of a ball game machine to which the present invention is applied. It is a rear view which shows schematic structure of the game board back surface of the pachinko gaming machine of FIG. It is the perspective view which expanded and showed the variable winning apparatus of the pachinko machine of FIG. It is a top view of the variable prize apparatus of FIG. It is the expansion perspective view which showed the open state of the opening / closing member (attacker door) of the variable prize-winning apparatus of FIG.
