(About the position of the coil spring hooked to the first gear)
As shown by the solid line in FIG. 10, the linkage latching piece 157 disposed on the rear surface of the first gear 129 is the center of the posture displacement of the first movable body 53 in the first initial posture of the first movable body 53. The third support shaft 68 (rotation center) and the fourth support shaft 69, which is the center (rotation center) of the posture displacement of the second movable body 54, are positioned above the inter-center line L. (Hereinafter referred to as “first latching position”). On the other hand, as shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 10, the linkage latching piece 157 is positioned below the axis-to-center line L described above in the first operation posture of the first movable body 53. (Hereinafter referred to as “second latching position”). That is, the linkage latching piece 157 has a second gap between the first latching position and the second latching position as the first movable body 53 is displaced between the first initial attitude and the second initial attitude. It moves in an arc shape that is convex toward the gear 147 side.

  Here, as shown in FIG. 10, the first latching position and the second latching position of the linkage latching piece 157 are positions that are vertically symmetrical about the line L between the shaft centers. The movement path of the linkage latching piece 157 at the first latching position and the second latching position is the first initial posture of the first movable body 53 on the circumferential line R along which the linkage latching piece 157 moves. In addition, in the rotational displacement of the first gear 129 with respect to the posture displacement of the first operation posture, this is a region where the movement amount of the linkage latching piece 157 is the smallest and the movement amount of the vertical direction is the largest. That is, the main moving direction of the linkage latching piece 157 is the vertical direction, which is substantially the same as the expansion / contraction direction of the coil spring 57 disposed in the spring disposing portion 160, so that the posture displacement of the first movable body 53 is changed. Thus, the elastic deformation of the coil spring 57 with respect to the above is efficiently expressed, and the smooth posture displacement of the first movable body 53 and the second movable body 54 is realized. Further, even when the first movable body 53 is in the first initial posture and the second movable body 54 is in the second initial posture, the biasing force by the coil spring 57 is expressed, so that the first movable body 53 and the second movable body 54 can be urged toward the first operation posture and the second operation posture, respectively.

  Further, between the first latching position and the second latching position, the amount of vertical movement of the interlocking latching piece 157 relative to the rotational displacement of the first gear 129 is maximum on the inter-center line L, and In the vicinity of the first latching position and the second latching position, the amount of movement is smaller than the amount of movement on the inter-axis line L, but the amount of movement is slight. That is, it can be considered that the vertical movement amount of the linkage latching piece 157 between the first latching position and the second latching position is substantially constant. Therefore, the posture displacement between the initial posture and the operation posture of each of the first movable body 53 and the second movable body 54 and the expansion / contraction deformation of the coil spring 57 are approximately proportional to each other. As a result, when the first movable body 53 and the second movable body 54 are in their initial positions, the biasing force of the coil spring 57 is the largest, so the first movable body 53 and the second movable body. The start of operation from the initial position of each of 54 is appropriately maintained. And since the urging | biasing force of the coil spring 57 becomes small gradually as the 1st movable body 53 and the 2nd movable body 54 approach each operating position, this 1st movable body 53 and the 2nd movable body 54 are each. Therefore, the first movable body 53 and the second movable body 54 are prevented from being damaged and generating abnormal noise. Further, since the tension is applied to the coil spring 57 even when the first movable body 53 and the second movable body 54 are in the respective operation postures, the first movable body 53 and the second movable body 54 are in the respective operation postures. The urging is held.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 10, the coil spring 57 has a circumferential line R in which the linkage latching piece 157 moves at an intermediate position between the first latching position and the second latching position, that is, the above-described line L between the shaft centers. Is arranged in the spring arrangement portion 160 so that the longitudinal direction of the coil spring 57 coincides or substantially coincides with the tangential direction with respect to. That is, the third support shaft 68 that is the rotation center of the first movable body 53 (the rotation center of the first gear 129) and the fourth support shaft that is the rotation center of the second movable body 54 (the rotation center of the second gear 147). 69 is disposed at substantially the same height position with respect to the base body 51, the above-described inter-axial line L extends substantially horizontally, and the coil spring 57 has a longitudinal length that is vertical as described above. It is arrange | positioned at the spring arrangement | positioning part 160 so that it may become a direction (vertical direction). Therefore, the urging force of the coil spring 57 is efficiently converted into a force for rotating the first gear 129.

  As described above, the first gear 129, which is the second linkage means, is engaged with the first end 155 of the coil spring 57 with the other end 156 hooked on the base body 51 side. A rotational force is applied to the first gear 129, which is a gear, and the first movable body 53 is biased toward the first operation posture. On the other hand, the second gear 147 that is the second linkage means is the second gear that always meshes with the first gear 129 that is the first gear. Similarly, by applying a rotational force, the first movable body 53 is urged toward the first operation posture. That is, in the embodiment, it is possible to bias both the first movable body 53 and the second movable body 54 that are linked to each other by the second linkage means toward the respective operation postures by one coil spring 57. is there.

Next, the operation of the pachinko machine 10 according to the embodiment configured as described above will be described.

(About the initial state)
In the pachinko machine 10 according to the embodiment configured as described above, for example, when it is determined that the movable effect device 50 is not operated, based on the result of determining whether or not the movable body effect can be performed by the effect control board of the effect control device, The movable effect device 50 is held in the initial state shown in FIGS. When the movable effect device 50 is in the initial state, the first actuating motor 75 of the actuating mechanism 58 and the second actuating motor 114 of the rotating effector 111 are stopped, so that the moving body 52 is stopped and held at the standby position. Since the moving body 52 is stopped at the standby position, the rotation effect body 111 provided in the moving body 52 is positioned on the rear side of the transparent protective member 28 provided on the frame-shaped decorative body 26. Therefore, it hardly protrudes to the front side of the display unit 45a of the symbol display device 45, and does not hinder the effect display on the display unit 45a.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 11, the movable body 52 is stopped at the standby position, so that the movable guide rollers 127 and 127 in the left and right first movable bodies 53 and 53 are extended vertically in the movable guide rail 100. By being positioned at the upper end of 101, each is held in a first initial posture whose longitudinal direction is directed vertically. In addition, since the first movable bodies 53 and 53 are held in the first initial posture, the left and right second movable bodies 54 and 54 are elongated in the left-right direction due to the meshing of the first gear 129 and the second gear 147. Are held in the second initial posture. As shown in FIG. 2, the first movable body 53 in the first initial posture and the second movable body 54 in the second initial posture are stopped at positions separated from each other, and do not form an integral design. As shown in FIG. 2, the left and right first movable bodies 53, 53 in the first initial posture are visually recognized from the front of the game board 20, but almost protrude from the front side of the display unit 45 a of the symbol display device 45.

  Further, since the first movable body 53 is in the first initial posture, the linkage latching piece 157 provided on the first gear 129 is stopped at the first latching position (see FIGS. 10 and 11). ), The coil springs 57 and 57 installed on the linkage latching piece 157 and the base latching piece 158 are held in a state of being deformed to the maximum extension length.

(Regarding directing by movable body)
When the effect control board of the effect control device determines that the movable effect device 50 is to be activated based on the determination result of whether or not the movable body effect can be executed, the effect control board moves based on a predetermined control mode. 50 is activated. That is, the production control board controls the operation of the first operating motor 75, so that the operating lever 76 starts to move from the lower position to the upper position, and accordingly, the moving body 52 moves from the standby position to the operating position. And start moving up. The movable guide rollers 127 in the left and right first movable bodies 53 and 53 move downward relative to the vertically extending portion 101 of the moving guide rail 100, but the movable guide roller 127 is inclined with respect to the vertically extending portion 101. Until reaching the boundary with the extending portion 102 (see FIG. 4A and FIG. 12), each of the first initial postures whose longitudinal directions are in the vertical direction is held. Further, since each first movable body 53 is held in the first initial posture, the left and right second movable bodies 54 and 54 are longitudinally moved in the left-right direction due to the meshing of the first gear 129 and the second gear 147. Each is held in the second initial posture facing.

  Then, the movable body 52 continues to move upward from the state shown in FIGS. 4A and 12 toward the operation position, so that the movable guide roller 127 moves downward along the inclined extending portion 102 of the movable guide rail 100. The first movable body 53 is moved relatively, and the position of the movable guide roller 127 with respect to the third support shaft 68 that supports the first movable body 53 is gradually displaced toward the center of the movable body 52. Is rotationally displaced from the first initial posture toward the first motion posture. Further, the first gear 129 in the second linking means rotates with the rotational displacement of the first movable body 53 around the third support shaft 68, so that the second gear 147 engaged with the first gear 129 is obtained. Is driven to rotate around the fourth support shaft 69, and the second movable body 54 is rotationally displaced from the second initial posture toward the second operation posture. Then, when the moving body 52 rises to the operating position, the first movable body 53 assumes the first operating posture, and in conjunction with this, the second movable body 54 assumes the second operating posture (FIG. 4B). (See FIG. 13). Here, each 2nd movable body 54 and 54 used as the 2nd operation attitude | position protrudes from the upper edge and side edge of the decoration members 200 and 200, and can be visually recognized from the front side.

  Here, as shown in FIG. 4B and FIG. 5, the left first movable body 53 that has been displaced in the first motion posture is inclined to the left upward as it moves away from the moving body 52. Become. In addition, the left second movable body 54 that has been displaced to the second motion posture is inclined to the lower right so as to approach the moving body 52 as it goes downward, and is located above the first movable body 53 in the first motion posture. It becomes a series. That is, the left first movable body 53 in the first motion posture and the left second movable body 54 in the second motion posture are aligned in a straight line inclined upward and away from the moving body 52 as going upward. Become. On the other hand, the first movable body 53 whose posture has been displaced to the first motion posture becomes a posture inclined upward to the right and away from the moving body 52 as it goes upward. In addition, the second movable body 54 that has been displaced in the second motion posture is inclined to the lower left so as to approach the moving body 52 as it goes downward, and continues to the upper portion of the first movable body 53 in the first motion posture. become. That is, the right first movable body 53 in the first motion posture and the right second movable body 54 in the second motion posture are aligned in a straight line inclined upward and away from the moving body 52 as going upward. Become.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 4B and 5, the lower part of the left first movable body 53 in the first operation posture moves to the discharge area 74 at the rear of the decoration unit 175 and moves to the decoration unit 175. The lower part of the right first movable body 53 that has overlapped with the front and rear and moved to the first operation posture moves to the discharge area 74 behind the decoration unit 175 and overlaps with the decoration unit 175 in the front and rear.

  Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 4B and FIG. 5, the left and right first movable bodies 53 and 53 are in the first operation posture, and the left and right second movable bodies 54 and 54 are in the second operation posture. In this case, the first movable body 53, 53, the second movable body 54, 54, and the decorative member form one large design shape, that is, a substantially “V” -shaped design shape when viewed from the front side. Thus, the design shape of the “V” shape can be visually recognized through the game board 20, and a powerful effect can be performed. In addition, the second movable bodies 54 and 54 in the second motion posture are projected forward of the display unit 45a of the symbol display device 45, and the decorative unit 175 of the movable body 52 is exposed forward and is rotated. As the body 111 rises to the front of the display unit 45a of the symbol display device 45, a more powerful effect is performed.

The posture displacement of the first movable body 53 to the first operation posture and the displacement of the second movable body 54 to the second operation posture are assisted. Therefore, when the moving body 52 is moved upward, the first movable body 53 is smoothly displaced toward the first operation posture, and the second movable body 54 is moved based on the posture displacement of the first movable body 53. The posture is smoothly displaced toward the second operation posture. Since the first movable body 53 and the second movable body 54 are biased by the coil spring 57 even if the first movable body 53 and the second movable body 54 are displaced to the respective motion postures, the first movable body 53 and the second motion that have been displaced to the first motion posture. The second movable body 54 that has been displaced in the posture is held in a stable motion posture by the biasing force of the coil spring 57.

(Regarding the effect of the rotation effector)
Further, the effect control board rotates the rotation effector 111 by controlling the operation of the second operating motor 114 at a timely timing. Here, the operation timing of the second operation motor 114 is set at the same time as the operation timing of the first operation motor 75, starts operating during the upward movement of the moving body 52, or operates after the moving body 52 has moved up to the operating position. Various controls such as starting are possible.

  Further, the effect control board includes the movable illumination board 105 provided on the moving body 52, the rotary illumination board 117 provided on the rotation effect unit 110, and the first movable illumination board 122 provided on each of the first movable bodies 53 and 53. By operating the second movable illumination board 142 arranged on each of the second movable bodies 54, 54 and the decoration illumination board 178 arranged on the decoration unit 175 at a predetermined timing, the front surface of the movable effect device 50 is obtained.

Even so, the posture displacement of the first movable body 53 to the first motion posture and the posture displacement of the second movable body 54 to the second motion posture can be appropriately synchronized. That is, the first movable body 53 provided with the first gear 129 to which the coil spring 57 is connected is formed by connecting the coil spring 57 as the biasing means to one of the first gears 129 in the second linkage means. Can be urged toward the first motion posture, so that the posture displacement of the first movable body 53 from the first initial posture to the first motion posture is smoothly and appropriately performed. Further, the second gear 147 to which the coil spring 57 is not connected meshes with the first gear 129 to which the coil spring 57 is linked, so that the urging force of the coil spring 57 against the first gear 129 is also applied to the second gear 147. Since the second movable body 54 provided with the second gear 147 can also be biased toward the operation posture, the posture of the second movable body 54 from the second initial posture to the second operation posture The displacement is also made smooth and appropriate.

The decorative member 121 can be prevented from being deformed by the biasing force of the coil spring 57. Further, since the coil spring 57 is disposed on the rear side of the first gear 129 and the second gear 147, the first movable body 53 and the second movable body 53 that change the posture between the first initial posture and the first motion posture. Contact with the second movable body 54 whose posture is displaced between the initial posture and the second motion posture is prevented, and the biasing of the coil spring 57 and the malfunction of the first movable body 53 and the second movable body 54 are prevented. Occurrence can be prevented.

  When the first movable bodies 53 and 53 are in their respective first motion postures and the second movable bodies 54 and 54 are in their respective second motion postures, the left first movable bodies that are connected to each other. 53 and the left second movable body 54, and the right first movable body 53 and the right second movable body 54 that are connected to each other, are inclined so as to be separated from each other and approach each other. Since the lower parts of the left and right first movable bodies 53, 53 overlap with the decoration unit 175 and can be seen continuously by the decoration member 177 of the decoration unit 175, as shown in FIGS. As a result, a “V-shaped” integrated design is formed. The effect effect can be enhanced by the movable effect device 50.

  When the movable body 52 moves between the standby position and the operating position, the movable guide roller 127 provided on the first movable body 53 is engaged with the movable guide rail 100 provided on the movable body 52. By being guided along the vertically extending portion 101 and the inclined extending portion 102 of the moving guide rail 100, the posture of the first movable body 53 is appropriately defined between the first initial posture and the first motion posture. At the same time, the first movable body 53 is smoothly and appropriately displaced. Accordingly, when the first movable body 53 is appropriately displaced in posture, the second movable body 54 linked by the first gear 129 and the second gear 147 is also between the second initial posture and the second operation posture. Appropriate displacement is achieved.

  In the movable effect device 50 of the embodiment, the rotation effect body 111 of the rotation effect unit 110 disposed on the front side of the moving body 52 moves up and down in conjunction with the up and down movement of the moving body 52, and the second Since the rotation is performed by the operation of the operation motor 114, the rotation effect body 111 is moved up and down and rotated in conjunction with the posture displacement of the first movable body 53 and the second movable body 54, thereby further improving the effect. Can be improved.

  In the first movable body 53, since the first wiring W1 connected to the first movable illumination board 122 is held by the first wiring holding portion 132, when the first movable body 53 is displaced in posture. The first wiring W1 is not entangled with the shaft support portion 125 and is not caught by the first gear 129 and the second gear 147, and damage and disconnection of the first wiring W1 can be prevented. Similarly, in the second movable body 54, since the second wiring W2 connected to the second movable illumination substrate 142 is held by the second wiring holding portion 150, when the second movable body 54 is displaced in posture. In addition, the second wiring W2 is not entangled with the shaft support portion 145 or caught by the first gear 129 and the second gear 147, and damage and disconnection of the second wiring W2 can be prevented.
