Description

The present invention relates to a pachinko gaming machine that performs a big hit game in which a big winning opening is opened due to a game ball entering the starting opening.

In the conventional ball game machine, when a plurality of special symbols are provided, the hit / fail judgment of the first special symbol is made based on the entry into the first starting port, and the first is based on the entry into the second starting opening. 2 It is common to determine the validity of a special symbol. In addition, the random number extracted due to the ball entering the first starting port is held and stored as the first hold storage until the hit / fail judgment is performed, and the random number extracted due to the ball entering the second starting port is determined to be hit / miss. The game ball captured from the game area is stored by the swinging member with a configuration in which a maximum of 8 pieces can be stored as a predetermined number (for example, 4 pieces) by holding and storing as a second hold memory until the operation is performed. There is one provided with a distribution means (so-called 8 chuckers) for alternately distributing the 1 start port and the 2nd start port <Patent Document 1>.

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2012-161534

However, in the invention of Patent Document 1, since the balls are distributed alternately, it is not possible to give a bias to the balls entering the first starting port and the second starting port, and the ball entering rate is always constant. Since the device cannot change the ball entry rate according to the change in the gaming state, there is a problem that it is insufficient to enhance the interest of the ball game machine.

Therefore, in the present invention, a bullet that enhances the interest in the game by providing a distribution means in the ordinary electric accessory and biasing the entry of the first start port and the second start port according to the game state. The purpose is to provide a ball game machine.

The ball game machine according to claim 1 is
A normal symbol that shows the result of the hit / fail judgment caused by entering the ball at the start port of the normal figure and is confirmed and displayed after the fluctuation display for a predetermined time.
A first hold storage means that stores up to a predetermined upper limit number of random numbers extracted due to a ball entering the first start port as a first hold storage until a special figure hit / fail determination is performed.
A second holding storage means that stores up to a predetermined upper limit number of random numbers extracted due to entering the second starting port as a second holding storage until the special figure hit / fail determination is performed.
The first special symbol, which shows the result of the special figure hit / fail determination of the first hold memory and is confirmed and displayed after the fluctuation display for a predetermined time,
The second special symbol, which shows the result of the special figure hit / fail determination of the second hold memory and is confirmed and displayed after the fluctuation display for a predetermined time, is provided.
Prioritizing the determination of whether or not the special figure of the second reserved memory is performed over the first reserved memory.
When the normal symbol is confirmed and displayed as a hit symbol, a hit execution means for executing a hit game accompanied by opening of the normal electric accessory with an opening pattern corresponding to the corresponding symbol, and a hit execution means.
When the first special symbol or the second special symbol is confirmed and displayed as a jackpot symbol, a jackpot execution means for executing a jackpot game accompanied by opening of the jackpot is provided.
After the end of the big hit game, the ball game is provided with an opening extension means for extending the opening time of the ordinary electric accessory during the hit game to an opening extension state in which the number of times of opening is increased from that in the normal gaming state. It ’s a machine,
When the number of balls entered into the ordinary electric accessory from the execution of the hit game reaches a predetermined value, the game balls entered into the ordinary electric accessory are distributed to the first starting port. A sorting means that changes to a state of sorting to the second starting port is provided.
The general drawing start port, the ordinary electric accessory, and the grand prize opening are arranged on the same flow path in the game area.
The open extension state includes a first open extension state and a second open extension state that are executed based on the type of the jackpot symbol.
In the open pattern selected in the second open extension state, the gaming ball entered into the ordinary electric accessory is said to be the second by the distribution means, as compared with the open pattern selected in the first open extension state. 2 This is a ball game machine characterized in that it has a high probability of being distributed to the starting port.

Normally, the first starting port and the second starting port are provided in the electric accessory, but a first starting port may be provided separately. Further, it is desirable that the first start port provided separately is arranged on a flow path different from that of the ordinary electric accessory so that the ball entry rate does not change at all times.

The first open extension state and the second open extension state are selected based on the type of the jackpot symbol, but the gaming state at the time of entering the first start port or the second start port that triggered the occurrence of the jackpot game. It may be configured to refer to and select up to. In addition, the normal electric accessory plays a hit game with an open pattern according to the hit symbol of the normal symbol, but it may be configured so that the hit symbol is displayed but the hit game is not performed except in the open extension state. It may be configured not to be displayed (not hit).

According to the ball game machine according to claim 1, the operation of the distribution means in the first open extension state and the second open extension state is constant from the execution of the hit game, but the big hit that triggered the big hit game. By performing the first open extension state and the second open extension state depending on the type of symbol, the opening pattern of the ordinary electric accessory is made different, and the distribution means is determined by the relationship between the operation of the distribution means and the opening pattern of the ordinary electric accessory. By making the ball entry rate to the first start port and the second start port different, the advantage can be changed between the first open extension state and the second open extension state, and the interest in the game can be enhanced. can.

FIG. 1 is a front view of the game board 1 in the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, on the game board 1, a substantially circular game area 3 surrounded by known guide rails 2a and 2b is divided into a first game area 3a and a second game area 3b by a flow path of a game ball. The first game area 3a is where the game ball flows down when the left side of the center case 5 arranged in the center of the center is fired at a strength lower than the predetermined firing strength, and the right side of the center case 5 is designated. The second game area 3b is where the game ball flows down when the ball is fired at a firing strength equal to or higher than that of. Therefore, the game ball that has reached the A portion shown in the figure reaches the second game area 3b (right side of the center case 5), and the game ball that does not reach A reaches the first game area 3a (left side of the center case 5). It will flow down. Further, a plurality of game nails are planted in the first game area 3a and the second game area 3b.

The center case 5 is provided with a warp entrance, a warp passage, a stage, a window facing the screen of the effect symbol display device 6, and the like, as in the case of known ones. Immediately below the center case, a first starting port A11 is installed in which the ball entry rate does not change at all times. Due to the shape of the center case 5 and the arrangement of the planted game nails, only the game balls that have flowed down the first game area 3a can enter the first start port A11. On the left side of the first starting opening A11, three ordinary winning openings 31, 32, 33 whose ball entry rate does not change at all times are installed.

A normal symbol operating gate 17 (corresponding to the normal symbol starting port of the present invention) is installed in the second game area 3b on the right side of the center case 5, and the center case 5 is under the normal symbol operating gate 17. A large winning opening 14 that is integrated with the right side surface and one blade opens and closes is installed.

An ordinary electric accessory 100 (corresponding to the ordinary electric accessory of the present invention) having a distribution portion 101 inside is installed under the large winning opening 14, and the game ball that wins the ordinary electric accessory 100 is The distribution member 34 (corresponding to the distribution means of the present invention) in the distribution unit 101 is configured to distribute to either the first start port B111 or the second start port 12. The configuration and operation of the distribution unit 101 will be described later with reference to FIG.

In the lower right of the game area 3 (below the second game area 3b), there is a first special symbol (first special of the present invention) that fluctuates due to entry into the first start port A11 and the first start port B111. A 7-segment first special symbol display device 9 that displays equivalent to a symbol, hereinafter also referred to as a first special symbol), and a second special symbol (book) that fluctuates due to entry into the second starting port 12. The 7-segment second special symbol display device 10 that displays the second special symbol of the present invention (hereinafter, also referred to as the second special symbol), and the ball entering the first starting port A11 and the first starting port B111. A first special figure holding number display device 18 composed of four LEDs for displaying the number of first holding storages stored due to the cause, and a second stored due to entry into the second starting port 12. A second special figure holding number display device 19 composed of four LEDs for displaying the number of holding memories, and a normal symbol that fluctuates due to entry into the normal symbol operating gate 17 (corresponding to the normal symbol of the present invention). A normal symbol display device 7 composed of two LEDs for displaying the above and a general symbol display device 8 composed of four LEDs are installed. By arranging various display devices at this position, it becomes difficult for the player to reliably see the displayed contents, and the player during the game can see the display contents of the effect symbol display device 6 which corresponds to the window of the center case 5 (special feature). The game is performed by paying attention to the effect mode of the pseudo symbol corresponding to the fluctuation of the figure and the display of the number of reserved memories of each special figure).

By configuring the game board 1 as described above, the game ball enters the first start port A11 only when the game ball is allowed to flow down into the first game area 3a (first start port A switch 11a (FIG. 3). (See) detects the game ball), the first special symbol starts to fluctuate in the first special symbol display device 9, and stops after a predetermined time. When the game ball is allowed to flow down into the second game area 3b, the game ball enters the normal symbol operation gate 17 (the normal symbol operation switch 17a (see FIG. 3) detects the game ball), and the normal symbol display device 7 normally displays the game ball. The universal electric accessory solenoid 100b (see FIG. 3), which will be described later, is driven according to the mode of the normal symbol which starts the variable display of the symbol and stops after a predetermined time.

When the ordinary electric accessory 100 is operated by driving the normal electric accessory solenoid 100b and the game ball that has entered the ordinary electric accessory 100 enters the distribution unit 101, the entering game ball enters the distribution member 34, which will be described later. It is distributed to the first starting port B111 or the second starting port 12. When a game ball enters the first start port B111 (the first start port B switch 111a (see FIG. 3) detects the game ball), the first special symbol display starts variable display on the first special symbol display device 9. When the game ball enters the second start port 12 (the second start port switch 12a (see FIG. 3) detects the game ball) after a predetermined time, the second special symbol display device 10 displays the second special symbol. Starts the variable display and stops after a predetermined time.

During the change of the first special figure or the second special figure, the effect symbol display device 6 displays the effect mode corresponding to the change of each special symbol. In addition, the first special figure and the second special figure do not change at the same time, and the change of the second special figure (whether or not it is judged) is prioritized regardless of the order of entry into the first start port and the second start port. To carry out. Specifically, when there is a hold memory of the first special symbol, the fluctuation of the second special symbol is stopped, and there is no second special symbol hold memory, so that the change of the first special symbol hold memory is present. Start in chronological order.

When the first special figure or the second special figure confirms and displays the big hit symbol, the big winning opening solenoid 14b (see FIG. 3), which will be described later, is driven. When the large winning opening solenoid 14b is driven, the one-blade member of the large winning opening 14 is opened almost synchronously, and the game ball enters the large winning opening 14 (count switch 14a (see FIG. 3) detects the game ball. ) Is possible, and a big hit game (also called a special game) is started.

Next, the configuration of the distribution unit 101 in the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

This controls the opening and closing of the large winning opening 14, and controls the distribution member solenoid 34b to control the tilt stop state of the distribution member 34. The output signal from the main control device 80 is also output to the test signal terminal, and management signals such as symbol fluctuations and big hits (also referred to as special games) are output to the external connection terminal 78 and sent to the hall computer.

The payout control device 81 is configured to enable bidirectional communication with the main control device 80, and drives the payout motor 20 in response to a command sent from the main control device 80 to pay out the prize balls. In this embodiment, the detection signal of the payout switch 21 for counting the game balls to be paid out as the prize balls is input to the payout control device 81, and the payout control device 81 counts the prize balls. In addition to this, it is also conceivable to use a configuration in which the detection signal of the payout switch 21 is input to the main control device 80 and the payout control device 81, and both the main control device 80 and the payout control device 81 count the prize balls.

The payout control device 81 receives signals from the glass frame opening switch 35, the inner frame opening switch 36, the full switch 22, and the ball out switch 23, and the full switch 22 indicates that the lower plate 63 is full. When is input or when a signal indicating that there are few or no game balls is input to the ball tank by the ball out switch 23, the payout motor 20 is stopped and the payout operation of the prize ball is stopped. The full switch 22 and the out-of-ball switch 23 are also configured to continue to output a signal until the state is resolved, and the payout control device 81 does not output the signal, so the payout motor 20 Resume driving.

Further, the payout control device 81 operates the payout motor 20 by communicating with the CR unit 24 (prepaid card unit) via the CR unit terminal plate 24, and discharges the rental ball. The loaned ball is detected by the payout switch 21, and the detection signal is input to the payout control device 81. The CR unit terminal board 24 is also connected to the settlement display board 25 so as to be able to communicate in both directions. The settlement display board 25 has a ball lending button for requesting the lending of game balls and a return for requesting settlement. Buttons and balance indicators are connected.

Further, the payout control device 81 transmits information about the prize ball, information indicating the open / closed state of the frame (inner frame, front frame), and the like to the hall computer via the external connection terminal 78, and also to the launch control device 84. Send a launch stop signal. In this embodiment, the game balls are paid out, but an enclosed type structure may be used in which the game balls generated in response to a prize or the like are stored without being paid out.

The launch control device 84 controls the launch motor 30 to launch the game ball into the game area 3. In addition to the payout control device 81, the launch control device 84 receives a rotation amount signal from the launch handle 64, a touch signal from the touch switch 28, and a launch stop signal from the launch stop switch 29. The rotation amount signal is output when the player operates the launch handle 64, the touch signal is output when the player touches the launch handle 64, and the launch stop switch signal is the launch stop switch signal when the player presses the launch stop switch 29. Is output. If the touch signal is not input to the launch control device 84, the game ball cannot be launched, and when the launch stop switch signal is input, the game ball cannot be launched even if the player touches the launch handle. It has become. The payout control device 81 and the launch control device 84 are configured as a one-way communication circuit from the payout control device 81 to the launch control device 84.

The sub-integrated control device 83 includes electrical components such as a CPU, ROM, and RAM, receives data and commands transmitted from the main control device 80, and uses them for effect display control, sound control, and lamp control. By allocating to data, commands for effect display control and the like are transmitted to the effect symbol control device 82, and for sound control and lamp control, each control part (function as a voice control device and lamp control device) included in itself. Distribute to the department). Then, the functional unit as the voice control device controls the voice output from the speaker 66 by operating the sound LSI based on the data for voice control, and the functional unit as the lamp control device becomes the data for lamp control. Various LEDs and lamps 26 are controlled by operating the lamp driver based on the above.
The effect symbol control device 82 includes data and commands received from the sub-integrated control device 83 (both transmitted from the main control device 80 and input from the main control device 80 by the sub-integrated control device 83 and input of the game button 67). The control is performed based on (there is one generated based on the above), and an effect image such as a pseudo symbol is displayed on the screen 6a of the effect symbol display device 6. The sub-integrated control device 83 and the main control device 80 are configured as a one-way communication circuit from the main control device 80 to the sub-integrated control device 83 via an effect relay terminal plate 65 between the sub-integrated control device 83 and the sub-integrated control device 83.

The effect symbol control device 82 controls the display on the LCD panel of the effect symbol display device 6 in response to a command sent from the sub-integrated control device 83.

Next, various setting contents such as the jackpot probability in the first embodiment will be described with reference to the chart shown in FIG. The pachinko machine in the present embodiment is configured as a probability variable machine, and the hit / fail judgment based on the game ball entering the first starting port A11, the first starting port B111, and the second starting port 12 is in a normal probability state (low probability). ) And a high probability state in which the probability of becoming a big hit is higher than that in the normal probability state. In this embodiment, the probability of determining whether the normal probability state is correct or not is set to 1/300, and the high probability state is set to 1/50.

In addition, when the 1st special figure is a big hit, the big winning opening 14 plays a big hit game for 8 rounds (specifically, 9 counts or 8 times of opening operation for 29.0 seconds), and the 2nd special figure is a big hit. In this case, the big winning opening 14 plays a big hit game for 15 rounds (9 counts or 15 times of opening operation for 29.0 seconds). As a result, the player has an advantage in the second special figure (ball entry into the second start port 12) (to the second start port rather than the big hit caused by the ball entering the first start port). It suffices if the jackpot that occurs due to entering the ball has a higher game value that can be acquired by the player, and if the jackpot that occurs due to entering the ball into the first starting port is included in the second starting port. Even if there is something that has a higher game value than the jackpot that occurs due to entering the ball, the average game value of the jackpot that occurs due to entering the second starting port is the first starting port. It may be set higher than the average game value of the jackpot that occurs due to entering the ball).

If the first special figure or the second special figure is a big hit, the big hit game is based on the type of the big hit symbol that has been confirmed and displayed on the first special symbol display device 9 or the second special symbol display device 10. After the end, it shifts to the high probability state. When the first special figure is a big hit, it shifts to a high probability state after the big hit game is completed at a rate of 1/2 (specifically, when a big hit is made with 5 kinds of probability variation symbols out of 10 kinds of big hit symbols), and the second When the special figure is a big hit, it shifts to a high probability state after the big hit game is completed at a rate of 4/5 (specifically, when a big hit is made with 8 kinds of probability variation symbols out of 10 kinds of big hit symbols). The first special figure and the second special figure are provided with a small hit in which the large winning opening 14 performs a short-time opening operation, and the small hit probability is the same in both the normal probability state and the high probability state in both special figures. If you win, the big winning opening 14 will operate for 1.6 seconds.

In addition, after the jackpot game is completed, the special symbol and the ordinary symbol (also referred to as the normal symbol) are displayed based on the type of the jackpot symbol that has been confirmed and displayed on the first special symbol display device 9 or the second special symbol display device 10. It has a time saving state in which the fluctuation time (time from the start of fluctuation to the display of the result) is shortened, and an opening extension function of the ordinary electric accessory 100 that operates in the time saving state (opening extension means of the present invention). Equivalent to). In the time saving state, the variation time of the special figure is shortened, so that the number of hit / fail judgments per unit time is increased, and the variation time of the normal map displayed on the normal symbol display device 7 is also shortened. By shortening the fluctuation time of the figure, the confirmation display of the normal figure is performed more times than in the normally open state within a certain time. Therefore, the number of times the normal drawing hits within a certain period of time increases, and as a result, the number of hit operations of the ordinary electric accessory 100 also increases. Further, the winning probability of the normal figure may be the same (for example, the winning probability of the normal figure is 99/100) in the time saving state and the normally open state, but in that case, the fluctuation time of the normal figure is greatly different. It is necessary (for example, 0.6 seconds in the time saving state and 60 seconds in the normally open state). In addition to providing a difference in the fluctuation time of the normal map described above, it is also conceivable that the winning probability of the normal map differs greatly between the time-shortened state and the normally open state (for example, the winning probability of the normal map in the short-time state is set to 99/100. , The probability of winning a normal map in the normally open state is 1/100)
In the time saving state, the opening extension function is activated, so that the opening time of the normal electric accessory 100 becomes longer than that in the normal open state, and the ball entering when the ordinary electric accessory 100 is operated according to one normal drawing is normally opened. It is easier than the state (normally open state 0.2 seconds once, first open extension state 2.000 seconds once, second open extension state 0.025 seconds, 3.000 seconds total 2 times) .. By facilitating the entry into the ordinary electric accessory 100 in this way, the number of variable display of the special figure is further increased, and the prize ball obtained by entering the ordinary electric accessory 100 is used by the player. It becomes difficult to reduce the number of balls held, and the player can play an advantageous game.

Further, the pachinko gaming machine of the present embodiment has two types of open extension states in which the open patterns of the ordinary electric accessory 100 according to one normal hit are different based on the type of the jackpot symbol.

Specifically, in the case of the first special symbol, if the jackpot symbol does not shift to the high probability state, the special symbol fluctuates 30 times after the jackpot game ends if the normal symbol A (25% of the jackpot symbols of the first special symbol). Or, the first open extension state is carried out until a big hit occurs during the open extension, and if it is a normal symbol B (25% of the jackpot symbols of the first special symbol), the special symbol is 30 after the jackpot game is completed. The second open extension state is carried out until the number of fluctuations is made or a big hit occurs during the open extension. If the jackpot symbol of the first special figure is a probabilistic symbol (50% of the jackpot symbols of the first special figure), the second open extension state is carried out until the next jackpot (until the special figure fluctuates 10,000 times).

In the case of the second special figure, if the big hit symbol does not shift to the high probability state (20% of the big hit symbols of the second special figure), the special figure fluctuates 30 times after the big hit game is completed, or The second open extension state is carried out until a big hit occurs during the opening extension, and if it is a probability variation symbol (80% of the jackpot symbols of the second special figure), until the next big hit (until the special figure fluctuates 10,000 times). The second open extension state is carried out. In this embodiment, the specifications are set so that the probability variation grant rate differs between the first special figure and the second special figure, but the probability variation grant rate may be the same as long as the ratio of the second open extension is different. Further, in this embodiment, when the second special symbol is a big hit with a normal symbol, the second open extension state is executed in all cases, but as in the case of the first special symbol, the second special symbol is changed according to the type of the jackpot symbol. One of the 1 open extension state and the 2nd open extension state may be implemented.

In the open extension state, the fluctuation time of the normal symbol is 0.6 seconds and the final display time of the normal symbol is 0.6 seconds in both the first open extension state and the second open extension state. Further, when the normal electric accessory 100 is operated, the opening is completed when a specified number (4) of game balls enter regardless of the game state.

Next, using the timing charts shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the operation contents of the ordinary electric accessory 100 and the operation contents of the distribution member 34 at the time of hitting the normal drawing in the first embodiment will be described. The distribution member 34 is in a stopped state (tilted to the right, see FIG. 2A) as shown in the upper timing chart of FIG. 5 in a normal state in which the ordinary electric accessory 100 does not hit and does not perform a hit operation. The state in which the game balls are distributed to the starting port 111 is always maintained.

As shown in the timing chart in the middle of FIG. 5, the operation content of the distribution member 34, which starts with the hit game of the ordinary electric accessory 100, is driven for 0.024 seconds from the start of the opening operation of the ordinary electric accessory 100. After that, it returns to the stopped state for 2.476 seconds, and after driving for another 3.000 seconds, it returns to the stopped state. Further, the distribution member 34 returns to the stopped state after the opening operation of the normal electric accessory 100 is completed, or 0.200 seconds after the specified number of game balls are inserted, with respect to such a basic operation content. It is composed.

The timing chart in the lower part of FIG. 5 shows the operation contents of the ordinary electric accessory 100 and the operation contents of the distribution member 34 when the normal drawing is hit in the normally open state. In this case, since the ordinary electric accessory 100 has one opening operation for 0.200 seconds, the distribution member 34 is driven for 0.024 seconds at the same time as the opening operation of the ordinary electric accessory 100 is started, and then 0.376. After seconds, it will be 0.200 seconds from the end of the opening operation of the ordinary electric accessory 100, so that the stopped state will be maintained after being driven for 0.024 seconds at the same time as the start of the opening operation of the ordinary electric accessory 100. Therefore, when a game ball enters the normal electric accessory 100 in the normally open state, all of them are guided to the first starting port 111.

Even in the normally open state, a plurality of open patterns of the ordinary electric accessory 100 may be provided according to the type of the hit symbol of the normal drawing, and the ordinary electric accessory 100 is opened for a long time with a low probability (for example, 3. A configuration in which 000 seconds) is performed is conceivable. Even in that case, since the distribution member 34 carries out the operation content shown in the middle stage of FIG. 5, it is distributed to the second starting port 12 when the long opening is performed in the normally open state.

In this embodiment, the normal electric accessory 100 operates when the normal drawing is hit even in the normally open state, but in the normally open state, the lottery table of the normal drawing is not provided with a winning value, or even if the winning is won. A configuration in which the normal electric accessory 100 does not hit the game, such as an invalid configuration, may be used (in the normally open state, a game in which the game ball is allowed to flow down to the first game area 3a is recommended, and is not recommended in the normally open state. (To eliminate the meaning of playing a game that causes the second game area 3b to flow down).

The upper timing chart of FIG. 6 shows the opening pattern of the ordinary electric accessory 100 in the first open extension state, and in the first open extension state, the ordinary electric accessory 100 is 2 for one hit in the normal drawing. Open for .000 seconds once. Since the distribution member 34 is stopped 0.200 seconds after the end of the opening operation of the ordinary electric accessory 100 (the distribution member 34 starts the opening operation of the ordinary electric accessory 100 regardless of the difference in the gaming state). After driving for 0.024 seconds from the start of the opening operation of the normal electric accessory 100, the motor does not displace in the driving state and remains in the stopped state. Therefore, in the first open extension state, when the ordinary electric accessory 100 is opened for 2.000 seconds, three or four game balls can be expected to enter, but all of them are distributed to the first starting port B111.

The timing chart in the lower part of FIG. 6 shows the opening pattern of the ordinary electric accessory 100 in the second open extension state, and in the second open extension state, the ordinary electric accessory 100 operates for one hit in the normal drawing. After opening for 0.024 seconds from the start, it closes for 2.476 seconds, and then opens for 3.000 seconds to end the opening pattern. This opening pattern has the same contents as the operation content (driving timing) of the distribution member 34, and the distribution member 34 is being driven (tilted to the left, FIG. 2) during the opening period of 3.000 seconds of the ordinary electric accessory 100. b) Since it is (see), the game ball that has entered the ordinary electric accessory 100 is distributed to the second starting port 12. In rare cases, the ball may enter at the first opening of 0.024 seconds, but in other cases, the first fluctuation can be performed in the second special figure.

Therefore, the distribution member 34 when the normal electric accessory 100 performs the hit operation has the same operation start trigger and operation content regardless of the difference in the gaming state, but the first open extension state and the second open extension state. The player's advantage changes depending on the combination with the opening pattern of the ordinary electric accessory 100, which differs depending on the state.

Next, the "main routine" executed by the main control device 80 will be described with reference to FIG. 7. When the hard interrupt by the microcomputer is executed in the "main routine", it is first determined whether or not it is a normal interrupt (S10). This determination process is performed by determining whether or not the value of the predetermined area of the RAM as the memory is a predetermined value, and when the process executed by the microcomputer shifts to the main process, the normal process is executed. It is for judging whether or not it is okay. When the interrupt is not a normal interrupt, it is conceivable that the microcomputer runs out of control when the power is turned on or due to noise or the like. When the power is turned on, the value of the predetermined area of the RAM is different from the predetermined value.

When S10 is determined to be negative, that is, it is determined that the interrupt is not a normal interrupt (S10: no), initial settings (for example, a predetermined value is written in a predetermined area of the memory, and a special symbol and a normal symbol are set as initial symbols, etc. (Writing of each initial value to the work area of the memory, etc.) is performed (S15), and the process proceeds to the residual processing (initial random number update processing (S80)).

When an affirmative judgment is made as a normal interrupt (S10: yes), the initial value random number update process (S20), the jackpot determination random number update process (S25), the jackpot symbol determination random number 1 update process (S30), and the jackpot symbol determination Random number 2 update process (S35), small hit symbol determination random number update process (S40), hit determination random number update process (S45), reach determination random number update process (S50), variation pattern determination random number update process (S55) ) Is performed. The small hit symbol determination random number may be configured by diverting the large hit symbol determination random number.

In the subsequent winning confirmation process (S60), the first starting port A11, the first starting port B111, the second starting port 12, the normal symbol operating gate 17, the large winning opening 14, the ball entering the normal winning opening, and the pachinko machine The input processing of each switch provided in the 50 and connected to the main control device 80 is executed. Subsequently, each output process (S70) such as the hit / fail determination process (S65) and the image output process, and the fraud monitoring process (S75) are performed, and the initial random number is updated within the remaining time until the next interrupt signal is input. The process (S80) is looped.

Next, the start winning process executed by the main control device 80 will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. The start winning process includes a random number obtained when the game ball enters the first start port A11, the first start port B111, and the second start port 12, or when the game ball passes through the normal symbol operating gate 17. The various random numbers of the above are stored (stored) in the main control device 80 as hold storage (first hold storage means, second hold storage means). Further, in this process, a look-ahead determination process (pre-reading determination means) is performed to determine whether or not the stored random number is a preset value before performing the pass / fail determination process described later.

Further, in the start winning process, various commands caused by entering the ball into the first start port A11, the first start port B111, and the second start port 12 are transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 83. After that, the hold memory stored when the game ball enters the first start port A11 and the first start port B111 is stored when the game ball enters the first hold memory and the second start port 12. The reserved memory will be described as the second reserved memory, and the reserved memory stored when the game ball passes through the normal symbol operating gate 17 will be described as the normal symbol reserved memory.

Further, in the present embodiment, the maximum number of lightings by the normal symbol hold number display device 8, the first special figure hold number display device 18, and the second special figure hold number display device 19, that is, the maximum hold storage number. The number is 4, but the number is not limited to this, and for example, the maximum number of each stored may be eight. Further, even if each of the reserved memory numbers is 0, when a game ball wins in the first start port A11, the first start port B111, and the second start port 12, or the game ball enters the normal symbol operation gate 17. Various random numbers such as a hit / miss random number acquired when the ball is hit are stored in the main control device 80 in the same manner as when there is a stored number less than the maximum value.

When this process is started, it is determined whether or not the first start port A switch 11a has detected the game ball (S100). If it is a negative determination, the process proceeds to (S100: no) S130, and if it is an affirmative determination (S100: yes), it is determined whether or not the number of first reserved storages stored in the main control device 80 is less than the upper limit value (= 4). (S105). If it is a negative judgment, proceed to (S105: no) S130, and if it is affirmative judgment (S105: yes), the extracted big hit judgment random number, big hit symbol determination random number 1, big hit symbol determination random number 2, small hit symbol determination random number , The reach determination random number and the variation pattern determination random number are stored as the first hold storage, and 1 is added to the first hold storage counter indicating the number of the first hold storage (S110).

Following S110, pre-reading determination of the stored first reserved storage is performed (S115) (pre-reading determination means). Specifically, it is confirmed whether or not the value of the random number for determining the jackpot is a value that causes a jackpot, and if it is a jackpot value, the type of the jackpot symbol is confirmed. If the big hit judgment is a loss, check whether it is a value that causes a small hit, and if it is a loss, check whether the reach determination random number is a value that becomes a super reach. If it is not super reach, check whether it is a reach value, and check the fluctuation time from the value of the random number for determining the fluctuation pattern. By performing the above determination, it is confirmed whether or not the random number stored on hold is a specific value that the player can expect a big hit (whether or not it is possible to produce an effect that makes the player expect a big hit even if it is out of order).

In this embodiment, the symbol information and the fluctuation pattern information are determined as the pre-reading determination, but only one of them may be determined. In addition, a configuration may be used in which only the result is determined. If only the result is correct, the information is light, so it is possible to send the hold number instruction command including the information on the result. It is also conceivable to have a plurality of lost symbols and specify the variation contents according to the selected lost symbols. In this case, it becomes possible to specify whether or not to perform the reach effect by the lost symbol and whether or not to perform a specific effect. Since it is known whether or not to produce, it is possible to perform a look-ahead effect accordingly.

Subsequently, a first pre-reading determination command is generated based on the determination result of S115 and transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 83 (S120) (pre-reading determination result transmitting means), and the first hold storage counter added in S110. The first hold number indicating command indicating the value is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 83 (S125). In addition, the content of the read-ahead determination command may be integrated with the hold number instruction command and transmitted.

Following the processing of S125 or the negative determination of S100 and S105 (S100: no, S105: no), the same processing as S100 to S125 described above (from S130) based on the detection of the first starting port B switch 111a. S155) is performed, and subsequently, based on the detection of the second start port switch 12a, the same processing (S160 to S185) as described in S100 to S125 is performed.

Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the normal symbol operation switch 17a has detected the game ball (S190). If it is a negative judgment (S190: no), the return is exited, and if it is affirmative judgment (S190: yes), it is judged whether or not the number of stored normal figures stored in the main control device 80 is less than the upper limit value (= 4) (= 4). S193). If it is a negative judgment (S193: no), the return is exited, and if it is an affirmative judgment (S193: yes), the extracted hit judgment random number and the hit symbol determination random number are stored as the normal figure hold memory, and the normal figure hold memory number. 1 is added to the normal figure hold storage counter indicating (S195), and a normal figure hold storage number instruction command indicating the value of the added normal figure hold storage counter is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 83 (S197) and returned.

When the sub-integrated control device 83 receives the first and second hold storage number instruction commands, it outputs an instruction signal that changes the number of hold symbols displayed on the effect symbol display device 6 according to the hold storage number indicated by the received commands. It is transmitted to the effect symbol control device 82. Further, in the present embodiment, the hold storage number of the normal symbol is not displayed on the effect symbol display device 6, but the hold storage number of the normal symbol may be displayed in response to the reception of the command. The configuration may be such that the number instruction command itself is not transmitted.

In addition, when displaying the number of reserved storages of a normal map, it is conceivable to provide a look-ahead determination of the normal map to produce a look-ahead effect. For example, it is provided with a hit game having a long opening time and a hit game with a short opening time as compared with the hit of a normal figure, and when there is a hit in which a long hit game is performed, the reserved symbol can be changed to expect a long hit.

Next, the pass / fail determination process executed by the main control device 80 will be described with reference to the flowcharts shown in FIGS. 9 to 11. In this process, the variable display time selection of the first special symbol or the second special symbol, the confirmation symbol selection, the content setting of the jackpot game, according to the result of the hit / fail judgment of the first hold memory and the second hold memory and the hit / fail judgment, This is a process for setting the game state (setting of the first open extension state and the second open extension state of the present invention) after the jackpot game is completed. Therefore, this process is a process including the opening extension means of the present invention.

When this process is started, it is determined whether or not the condition device is operating, that is, whether or not the jackpot game is in progress (S300). It is determined whether or not the first or second special figure is changing (S305), and if it is not changing (305: no), it is determined whether or not the definite symbol of the first or second special figure is being displayed. (S310), if the confirmation display is not in progress (S310: no), it is determined whether or not there is a second reserved memory (S315), and if it is a negative determination (S315: no), it is determined whether or not there is a first reserved memory. If (S320), a negative determination is made (S320: no), a return is made, and if S315 or S320 is an affirmative determination (S315: yes, S320: yes), the process proceeds to S325. According to the determination order of S315 and S320, the second hold memory preferentially performs the pass / fail determination.

In S325, it is determined whether or not the time saving flag is 0 (S325). The time saving flag is a value stored in the main control device 80. If the value is 1, the fluctuation time of the special symbol and the normal symbol is shortened, and the opening extension function of the ordinary electric accessory 100 is activated in the time saving state. The above-mentioned ordinary electric accessory 100 is in the first open extension state in which the opening is performed for 0.200 seconds. If the value is 2, the time is similarly shortened, and the ordinary electric accessory 100 is 0.024 seconds and 3 If the value is 0, it is determined that the second open extension state for performing the opening for .000 seconds is the normal open state (non-time saving state, non-open extension state). If S325 is a negative judgment, that is, in the time saving state and the open extension state (S325: no), the processing in the time saving state is performed, but in the time saving state, the selection table of the variation pattern to be selected according to the hit / fail judgment result is only different. Since it is no different from the conventional technology, the explanation is omitted.

If S325 is an affirmative determination, that is, if it is in a normally open state (S325: yes), the hold storage shift process is performed (S330). As a result, the oldest (the oldest time has passed since the hold storage) first or second hold memory is set as the target of the pass / fail judgment, and 1 is subtracted from the hold storage counter indicating the corresponding hold memory.

In the subsequent random number comparison process for jackpot judgment, the value of the random number for jackpot judgment is found in the hit / miss judgment table by comparing the random number for jackpot judgment of the reserved memory, which is the target of the special figure hit / fail judgment, with the preset hit / miss judgment table. It is compared whether or not it matches the determination value of (S335). Two types of tables are set for the hit / fail judgment table, one for the normal probability (low probability 1/300) and the other for the high probability (1/50). For example, a comparison is made using a hit / fail judgment table for normal probabilities, and in the case of a high probability state, a hit / fail judgment table for high probabilities is used for comparison.

In the following S340, it is determined whether or not the result of S335 is a big hit (same as the determination value). If it is affirmative (S340: yes), the symbol mode setting process is performed (S345). In the symbol mode setting process, the content of the jackpot game and the game state after the jackpot game is completed (high probability or normal probability, first open) based on the random number 1 for determining the jackpot symbol of the first or second reserved memory to be determined. A symbol mode for determining the extended state or the second open extension state) is set (corresponding to the open extension means of the present invention).

Subsequently, the jackpot symbol selection process is performed based on the set symbol mode type and the jackpot symbol determination random number 2 (S350). This is a process of determining the jackpot symbol to be confirmed and displayed from the symbol groups set for each symbol mode type in order to notify the type of the jackpot game determined by the symbol mode setting by the jackpot symbol.

Next, the mode buffer setting process is performed based on the symbol mode set in S345 (S355). The mode buffer is a device that stores the contents of the game state after the end of the big hit game determined at the time of winning / failing until the end of the big hit game that sets the game state (during the big hit game, the probability change flag and the time saving flag that set the game state). Because it is necessary to clear). The mode buffer does not store the specific game content, but stores the value corresponding to the specific game content.

Next, based on the symbol mode set in S345, the opening pattern setting process of the big winning opening 14 which is the content of the big hit game is performed (S360), and the reach of the first or second reserved memory which is the target of the winning / failing judgment is determined. Random number and fluctuation pattern selection Based on the random number for determining the fluctuation pattern, the fluctuation pattern selection which is the fluctuation time of the symbol to be displayed on the first special symbol display device 9 or the second special symbol display device 10 and the effect symbol display device 6 is selected. Process (S365).

Subsequently, the selected jackpot symbol and fluctuation pattern information is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 83 as a fluctuation instruction command (S370). Based on the instruction from the sub-integrated control device 83 that received this information, the effect symbol control device 82 controls the effect symbol display device 6, and is based on the information of the jackpot symbol and the variation pattern of the first or second special symbol. Start the effect variation display of the pseudo pattern. Almost at the same time as the transmission to the sub-integrated control device 83, the main control device 80 directly controls the first special symbol display device 9 or the second special symbol display device 10 to start the variation of the special symbol.

If S340 is a negative judgment, that is, if it is lost (S340: no), it is judged whether or not the result of the comparison processing of S335 is a small hit (S375), and if it is affirmative judgment (S375: yes), the type of special figure, the game state. , And the small hit symbol is selected based on the random number for determining the small hit symbol (S380), then the opening pattern setting process of the small hit game is performed (S360), and the above-mentioned variable pattern selection process corresponding to the small hit symbol is performed. (S365), a variation instruction command that is information on the small hit symbol and the variation pattern is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 83 (S370). The effect symbol control device 82 controls the effect symbol display device 6 based on the instruction from the sub-integrated control device 83 that has received this information, and corresponds to the first or second special figure based on the information of the small hit symbol and the fluctuation pattern. Start the variable display of the produced design. Almost at the same time as the transmission to the sub-integrated control device 83, the main control device 80 directly controls the first special symbol display device 9 or the second special symbol display device 10 to start the variation of the special symbol.

If S375 is a negative determination (S375: no), a lost symbol is selected (S385), then a variation pattern setting process corresponding to the lost symbol is performed (S365), and a variation instruction command that provides information on the symbol and the variation pattern related to the loss. Is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 83 (S370). The effect symbol control device 82 controls the effect symbol display device 6 based on the instruction from the sub-integrated control device 83 that has received this information, and starts the variation display of the pseudo symbol based on the information of the lost symbol and the variation pattern. Almost at the same time as the transmission to the sub-integrated control device 83, the main control device 80 directly controls the first special symbol display device 9 or the second special symbol display device 10 to start the variation of the special symbol.

Next, if S305 is an affirmative judgment, that is, if the special symbol is changing (S305: yes), the process proceeds to the flowchart of FIG. 10, and the fluctuation time of the special symbol (based on the fluctuation pattern selected in S365) has elapsed. Whether or not it is determined (S400). If it is a negative judgment (S400: no), it returns, and if it is affirmative judgment (S400: yes), a confirmation command is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 83 to control the first special symbol display device 9 or the second special symbol display device 10. The confirmed symbol selected in S350, S380 or S385 is confirmed and displayed (S405). Upon receiving the confirmation command, the sub-integrated control device 83 transmits an instruction signal for confirming and displaying the pseudo symbol selected in advance to the effect symbol control device 82, and the effect symbol control device 82 receives the effect symbol display device according to the signal. 6 is controlled to confirm and display the pseudo symbol. As a result, the start and end of the fluctuation of the first or second special symbol and the pseudo symbol are at the same timing (synchronized).

Following S405, it is determined whether or not the first or second special symbol confirmed and displayed by the first special symbol display device 9 or the second special symbol display device 10 is a jackpot symbol (S410), and if it is affirmative (S410). : Yes), the display setting process of the confirmed symbol (setting of the time to be displayed in the confirmed symbol) is performed (S415), and it is determined whether or not the probability variation flag is 1 (whether or not it is in a high probability state) (S420), and affirmative. If it is a determination (S420: yes), the probability variation flag is set to 0 (S425), and following the negative determination of S425 or S420 (S420: no), it is determined whether or not the time saving flag is larger than 0 (S430). ), If the judgment is affirmative (S430: yes), the time saving flag is set to 0 (S435), and the negative judgment of S435 or S430 (S430: no) is followed by the conditional device operation start process (S440). The jackpot is started by performing the object continuous operation device operation start process (S445), and the jackpot start effect instruction command is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 83 (S450).

On the other hand, if S410 is a negative judgment, that is, if the confirmed symbol is not a big hit (S410: no), the confirmation symbol display setting process (setting of the time to be displayed with the confirmed symbol) is performed (S460), and the probability change flag is 1. Whether or not (S465), if affirmative judgment (S465: yes), decrement from the probability variation counter (S470), determine whether or not the probability variation counter is 0 (S475), if affirmative determination (S475: yes), probability variation Set the flag to 0 (S480). Subsequently, if S480 or S465 or S475 is a negative determination (S465: no, S475: no), it is determined whether or not the time reduction flag is larger than 0 (S485), and if it is an affirmative determination (S485: yes), the time reduction counter. (S490), it is determined whether or not the time saving counter is 0 (S495), and if it is affirmative (S495: yes), the time saving flag is set to 0 (S500). From S465 to S500, each time the special symbol displays the loss confirmation according to the hit / fail judgment, the probability variation counter that regulates the high probability state and the time reduction counter that regulates the time reduction (open extension) state are counted, and these counters are counted. When the predetermined value is reached, the gaming state changes (the time saving (opening extension) state ends and shifts to the normal state (normal probability changing state and normal opening state)).

Subsequently, if S500 or S485 or S495 is a negative judgment (S485: no, S495: no), it is determined whether or not the confirmed special symbol is a small hit symbol (S505), and if it is affirmative (S505: yes). ), Perform the process of starting the operation of the small hit game (S510), and after the negative determination of S450, S510, or S505 (S505: no), issue a state specification command indicating the game state based on the result of the above process. It is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 83 (S455) and returned.

Returning to FIG. 9, if S310 is affirmative, that is, if the confirmed symbol is being displayed (S310: yes), the process proceeds to the flowchart of FIG. 11, and it is determined whether or not the confirmed symbol display time has elapsed (S550). (S550: no) If the return is affirmative (S550: yes), the confirmation symbol display end process (S555) is performed, and the first special symbol display device 9 or the second special symbol display device 10 is controlled to control the special symbol. The confirmation display is terminated, and the sub-integrated control device 83 is instructed to end the confirmation display of the pseudo symbol.

Next, the special game process executed by the main control device 80 will be described with reference to FIGS. 12 to 15. This process controls the opening and closing of the big winning opening 14 based on the opening pattern set at the time of the winning / failing determination process of FIG. At the end of the game, the probability change flag, the probability change counter, the time reduction flag, and the time reduction counter are set, which corresponds to the jackpot execution means of the present invention and includes the opening extension means.

When this process is started, it is determined whether or not the condition device is not operating based on the jackpot flag (S600). If it is affirmative determination, that is, if it is not during the big hit (S600: yes), it is determined whether or not the big winning opening 14 is operating as a small hit game (S605). If S605 is a negative judgment (S605: no), it returns, if it is affirmative judgment (S605: yes), it is judged whether or not it is in the small hit start interval (S610), and if it is affirmative judgment (S610: yes), it is a small hit. It is determined whether or not the start interval time has passed (S615), if it is a negative determination (S615: no), it returns, and if it is an affirmative determination (S615: yes), the big winning opening 14 is opened as a small hit game and the sub A small hit effect instruction command is transmitted to the integrated control device 83 (S620), and a return is made.

If S610 is a negative determination (S610: no), it is determined whether or not a small hit operation is in progress (S625), and if it is an affirmative determination (S625: yes), it is determined whether or not the count switch 14a has detected a game ball (S630). ), If the determination is affirmative (S630: yes), it is determined whether or not the number of game balls entering the large winning opening 14 during the small hit game is less than 9 (S635). If S630 is a negative judgment (S630: no) or S635 is a positive judgment (S635: yes), it is determined whether or not the opening time of the small hit game of the big winning opening 14 has elapsed (S640), and if it is a negative judgment (S640). : No) Return.

If S635 is a negative judgment (S635: no) or S640 is a positive judgment (S640: yes), the large winning opening 14 for performing the small hit game is closed (S645), and then the small hit end effect processing is performed (S645). S650) Return.

If S625 is a negative judgment and is not in a small hit game (S625: no), it is determined whether or not the time for the small hit end effect has elapsed (S655), and if it is a negative judgment (S655: no), a return is made and a positive judgment is made. Then (S655: yes), the small hit game end processing is performed (S660), and the return is exited.

If S600 is a negative judgment, that is, if the jackpot flag is set (S600: no), the process proceeds to the flowchart of FIG. 13, it is determined whether or not the jackpot 14 is closed (S700), and if it is affirmative (S700: yes). , It is determined whether or not the start production of the jackpot game is in progress (S705). If S705 is an affirmative judgment (S705: yes), it is determined whether or not the start production time of the jackpot game has elapsed (S710), if it is a negative judgment (S710: no), a return is made, and if it is an affirmative judgment (S710: yes), The opening process of the large winning opening 14 is performed, and a command instructing the large winning opening opening effect is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 83 (S715) to return.

If S705 is a negative judgment (S705: no), that is, if the start production of the jackpot game is not in progress, it is determined whether or not it is in the interval between rounds (S720), and if it is a negative judgment (S720: no), the end production of the jackpot game is performed. If it is determined whether or not it is medium (S730), and if it is negative (S730: no), the jackpot start effect processing is performed, and a command instructing the jackpot start effect is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 83 (S735) to return.

When the main control device 80 transmits a jackpot start effect instruction command to the sub-integrated control device 83 in S735, the sub-integrated control device 83 that receives the command violently sets the lamps and LEDs provided in the pachinko machine for the jackpot game effect. It emits light and outputs the sound for big hit games from the speaker. Further, the sub-integrated control device 83 transmits a signal to the effect symbol control device 82, and the effect symbol display device 6 displays the jackpot start effect.

If S720 is affirmative, that is, during the inter-round interval (S720: yes), it is determined whether or not the interval time has elapsed (S725), if it is negative, it returns (S725: no), and if it is affirmative (S725: yes). ), The large winning opening 14 is opened and returned (S715).

If S700 is a negative judgment, that is, if the big winning opening 14 is open (S700: no), the process proceeds to the flowchart of FIG. 14, and it is judged whether or not the count switch 14a has detected a game ball (S800), and if it is a positive judgment (S800). S800: yes), it is determined whether or not the number of detections of the open count switch 14a is less than 9 (S805). If the negative judgment of S800 or S805 is a positive judgment (S800: no, S805: yes), it is judged whether or not the opening time of the large winning opening 14 has elapsed (S810), and if it is a negative judgment (S810: no), a return is made. , S805 is a negative judgment (S805: no), or S810 is a positive judgment (S810: yes), the large winning opening 14 is closed (S815), and whether or not the completed round game of the large winning opening 14 is the final round. Is determined (S820).

If S820 is an affirmative determination (S820: yes), the jackpot end effect processing is performed, and a command instructing the jackpot end effect is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 83 (S825) to return. If S820 is a negative determination (S820: no), the round inter-game interval processing is performed, and an instruction signal for starting the interval effect is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 83 (S830) to return.

Returning to FIG. 13, if S730 is affirmatively determined, that is, if the jackpot end effect is in progress (S730: yes), the process proceeds to the flowchart of FIG. 15 to determine whether or not the jackpot end effect time has elapsed (S900). If S900 is a negative determination (S900: no), the return is exited, and if S900 is an affirmative determination (S900: yes), the accessory continuous operation device stop processing (S905) and the condition device operation stop processing (S910) are performed to make a big hit. After finishing the game, referring to the mode buffer set in S355 of FIG. 9 (S915), the probability change flag (S920), the probability change counter (S925), the time reduction flag (S930), and the time reduction counter (S935) are set and set. The opening pattern of the normal electric accessory 100 is set according to the value of the time saving flag (S940), the mode buffer is cleared (S945), the end command is given to the sub-integrated control device 83 (S950), and the set probability change flag is set. A state specification command based on the time saving flag is transmitted (S955), the jackpot flag is set to 0 (S860), and a return is made.

The above is the description of the first embodiment. In the first embodiment, the advantage of the second opening extension is higher than that of the first opening extension (it becomes easier to generate a high-value jackpot game due to the fluctuation of the second special figure), and then the difference in the gaming state. Regardless of (first open extension state, second open extension state, normal open state), while the operation of the distribution member 34 is constant when the normal electric accessory 100 hits and plays a game, the ordinary electric accessory 100 By making the opening pattern of the above different, the ball entry rate to the first starting port B111 and the second starting port 12 is biased due to the difference in the combination of operations with the distribution member 34. It changes the advantage of the player and enhances the interest in the game.

Next, Example 2 will be described. The parts that are not particularly explained are the same as those in the first embodiment, and duplicate explanations are omitted.

In the pachinko gaming machine of the first embodiment, the first starting port B111 and the second starting port 12 are provided inside the distribution unit 101, and the game ball that has entered the ordinary electric accessory 100 is first by the distribution member 34. The starting port B111 and the second starting port 12 are divided, but in the second embodiment, the operating port 103 (the position of the first starting port B111 of the first embodiment) and the second starting port 12 are inside the distribution unit 101. When a game ball enters the operating port 103, the mechanical tulip accessory 105, which is a non-electric accessory, is opened by the weight of the game ball, and the first starting port B111 is provided in the mechanical tulip accessory 105. It was configured to be prepared.

Hereinafter, the points different from the first embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 16 is a front view of the game board 1 in the second embodiment. The difference from the first embodiment is that the mechanical tulip 105 serving as the first starting port B111 is arranged at the lower left of the distribution portion 101 arranged at the same position as the first embodiment, and the mechanical tulip 105 is arranged in the distribution portion 101. This is a point provided with an operating port 103 for opening the door. When the mechanical tulip 105 is closed, it is not possible to enter a game ball, and when two game balls are inserted in the open state, the mechanical tulip 105 returns to the closed state due to the weight of the entered game ball (specified number of winnings). 2).

FIG. 17 is a diagram showing the configuration of the distribution unit 101 in the second embodiment, and while the structure is the same as that of the first embodiment, the distribution destinations of the distribution member 34 are the operation port 103 and the second start port 12. There is. Specifically, the operating port 103 is arranged on the lower left side of the housing member 101c (the first starting port B111 is arranged in the first embodiment), and the second starting port 12 is arranged on the right side as in the first embodiment. bottom.

Therefore, in the stopped state in which the distribution member solenoid 34b is not driven, the distribution member 34 stops in a state of being inclined to the right when viewed from the front as in the first embodiment, but the period of stopping in this state is shown in FIG. As shown in (a), the game ball that has entered the normal electric accessory 100 is distributed to the operating port 103, and when the game ball enters the operating port 103, the first mechanical tulip (1st mechanical tulip) due to the weight of the game ball. The non-motorized accessory) 105 is opened, and the ball can enter the first starting port B111. During the period in which the distribution member solenoid 34b is driven and the distribution member 34 is stopped in a state of being tilted to the left when viewed from the front, the game ball entered into the ordinary electric accessory 100 is second-started as in the first embodiment. It is distributed to the mouth 12.

FIG. 18 is a block diagram showing the electrical wiring of the pachinko machine according to the second embodiment. Compared with the block diagram of the first embodiment, the operating port switch 103a for detecting the game ball entering the operating port 103 is a game board. It is additionally connected to the main control device 80 via the relay terminal plate 74.

The above is the description of the second embodiment. Also in the second embodiment, the advantage of the second opening extension is higher than that of the first opening extension (it becomes easier to generate a high-value jackpot game due to the fluctuation of the second special figure), and then the difference in the gaming state. Regardless of (first open extension state, second open extension state, normal open state), while the operation of the distribution member 34 is constant when the normal electric accessory 100 hits and plays a game, the ordinary electric accessory 100 By making the opening pattern different, the ball entry rate to the operating port 103 and the second starting port 12 is biased by the combination of the operations with the distribution member 34, and the mechanical tulip 105 is opened by the ball entering the operating port 103. Then, it becomes possible to enter the ball into the first starting port B111, and the value when one game ball enters the normal electric accessory 100 is changed between the first open extension state and the second open extension state. , The advantage can be changed, and the interest in the game is enhanced.

Next, Example 3 will be described. The parts not specifically explained are the same contents as those of Examples 1 and 2, and the duplicated explanations are omitted.

In the third embodiment, the configuration of the game board 1 and the distribution unit 101 is the same as that of the second embodiment, but the operation trigger of the distribution member 34 at the time of the hit game of the ordinary electric accessory 100 is different. Has a configuration in which the distribution member 34 is displaced (driven) from a right inclination to a left inclination depending on the number of balls entering the ordinary electric accessory 100 during a game per normal drawing. In this embodiment, the specified number when the normal electric accessory 100 is opened is three.

The operation contents of the ordinary electric accessory 100 and the operation contents of the distribution member 34 at the time of hitting the normal drawing in the third embodiment will be described with reference to the timing charts shown in FIGS. 21, 22 and 23. The distribution member 34 always maintains a state in which the game ball is distributed to the operating port 103 in a state where the electric accessory 100 does not hit and operates (the distribution member solenoid 34b is stopped).

The operation trigger of the distribution member 34 in this embodiment is that the game ball enters the normal electric accessory 100 at the time of the hit game regardless of the game state, and the game ball must enter the ordinary electric accessory 100. For example, the distribution member 34 does not operate.

Specifically, as shown in the timing chart at the bottom of FIG. 21 (normally, the ordinary electric accessory 100 is opened once for 0.200 seconds), the distribution member 34 is in a stopped state during the hit operation of the ordinary electric accessory 100. When the operating port switch 103a detects one game ball that has entered the operating port 103 due to (right tilting state), the distribution member 34 is displaced to the driving state (left tilting state), and the game ball that has entered thereafter is displaced. It is configured to be distributed to the second starting port 12.

Further, the distribution member 34 displaced to the driving state is displaced to the stopped state at the end of the opening operation of the normal electric accessory 100 or 0.200 seconds after the detection of the specified number of balls, regardless of the gaming state. (Return to the original state). Therefore, when the normal electric accessory 100 is opened once for 0.200 seconds in the normal open state, it is not expected that a plurality of game balls will enter, and the mechanical tulip (non-mechanical tulip) will be inserted from the operating port 103. By opening the electric accessory) 105, it is possible to enter the ball into the first starting port B111.

The timing chart of FIG. 22 shows the opening pattern of the ordinary electric accessory 100 in the first open extension state in the third embodiment. In the first open extension state of this embodiment, the ordinary electric accessory 100 opens once for 0.600 seconds for each hit in the normal drawing. Further, even in the first open extension state, the distribution member 34 is displaced from the stopped state to the driven state when the operating port switch 103a detects one game ball.

In this case as well, the distribution member 34 displaced to the drive state is stopped 0.200 seconds after the end of the opening operation of the normal electric accessory 100 or the detection of the specified number of balls (three in the third embodiment). Displace (return to the original state). Therefore, in the first open extension state, when the normal electric accessory 100 is opened for 0.600 seconds, basically only one game ball can enter, so the first start port by opening the mechanical tulip 105. The game proceeds only by entering the ball to B111, but in rare cases where two prizes are won, the game ball is distributed to the second starting port 12.

The timing chart of FIG. 23 shows the opening pattern of the ordinary electric accessory 100 in the second open extension state in the third embodiment. In the second open extension state of this embodiment, the ordinary electric accessory 100 opens once for 5.000 seconds for each hit in the normal drawing. Further, even in the second open extension state, the distribution member 34 is displaced from the stopped state to the driven state when the operating port switch 103a detects one game ball.

Therefore, when the normal electric accessory 100, which is expected to receive a plurality of game balls, is opened for 5.000 seconds, the first game ball enters the operating port 103, and the machine corresponding to the entry. By opening the formula tulip (non-electric accessory) 105, it is possible to easily win a prize in the first starting port B111, and the second and third game balls entered are distributed to the second starting port 12. Since the specified number of winnings of the ordinary electric accessory 100 of this embodiment is 3, when the second start port switch 12a detects a game ball that is the third entry into the ordinary electric accessory 100, The opening of the normal electric accessory 100 is completed, and 0.200 seconds after that, the distribution member 34 is displaced from the driven state to the stopped state (returns to the original state).

Since the specified number of prizes for the mechanical tulip (non-electric accessory) 105, which is the first starting port B111, is two, three game balls enter the opened ordinary electric accessory 100 to open the ball. When finished, two prizes can be expected for each of the first starting port B111 and the second starting port 12.

The above is the description of the third embodiment. Also in this embodiment, the advantage of the second opening extension is higher than that of the first opening extension (the fluctuation of the second special figure makes it easier to generate a high-value jackpot game), and then the first opening extension. While the opening pattern of the normal electric accessory 100 is different between the state and the second open extension state, the operation trigger of the distribution member 34 is the entry of a predetermined number (1) of game balls into the ordinary electric accessory 100. By doing so, there is a difference in the ball entry rate to the second starting port 12 between the first open extension state and the second open extension state. With this configuration, the first starting port B111 can be won by opening the mechanical tulip (non-electric accessory) 105 by entering the operating port 103 in either open extension state, but the second starting port can be won. Since the winning rate of the normal electric accessory 100 changes between the first open extension state and the second open extension state, the player's advantage also changes according to the game state, and the interest in the game is increased. I'm raising it.

Next, Example 4 will be described. The parts that are not particularly explained are the same contents as those of Examples 1, 2 and 3, and the duplicated explanations are omitted.

In the pachinko game machine of the third embodiment, the operating port 103 and the second starting port 12 are provided inside the distribution unit 101, and the game ball that has entered the ordinary electric accessory 100 is referred to as the operating port 103 by the distribution member 34. It was distributed to the second starting port 12, but in the fourth embodiment, when the first operating port 103 and the second operating port 104 are provided inside the distribution unit 101 and the game ball enters the first operating port 103. When the first mechanical tulip accessory 105, which becomes a non-electric accessory due to the weight of the game ball, opens and the game ball enters the second operating port 104, the game ball becomes a non-electric accessory due to its own weight. The second mechanical tulip accessory 106 is opened, and the first mechanical tulip 105 is used as the first starting port B111, and the second mechanical tulip 106 is used as the second starting port 12. The operation trigger of the distribution member 34 is the entry of one game ball into the ordinary electric accessory 100 as in the third embodiment.

The points different from the third embodiment will be described below. FIG. 24 is a front view of the game board 1 in the fourth embodiment. The difference from the third embodiment (using the second embodiment) is that the second mechanical tulip 106, which is the second starting port 12, is arranged at the lower left of the distribution unit 101 arranged at the same position as the third embodiment. The first mechanical tulip 105 serving as the first starting port B111 is arranged in the lower left, and in the distribution portion 101, the first operating port 103 for opening the first mechanical tulip 105 is on the left side, and the second mechanical type is on the right side. A second actuating port 104 for opening the tulip 106 was provided. When both the first mechanical tulip 105 and the second mechanical tulip 106 are closed, the game ball cannot be entered, and when two game balls are inserted in the open state, the weight of the entered game ball is reduced. Returns to the closed state by (2 prizes specified).

FIG. 25 is a diagram showing the configuration of the distribution unit 101 in the fourth embodiment, and while the structure itself is the same as that of the first embodiment, the distribution destinations of the distribution members 34 are the first operating port 103 and the second operating port 104. I have to. Specifically, the first operating port 103 is arranged on the lower left side of the housing member 101c, and the second operating port 104 is arranged on the right side.

Therefore, in the stopped state in which the distribution member solenoid 34b is not driven, the distribution member 34 stops in a state of being tilted to the right when viewed from the front, but the period of stop in this state is as shown in FIG. 25 (a). In addition, the game ball that has entered the ordinary electric accessory 100 is distributed to the first operating port 103, and when the game ball enters the first operating port 103, the first mechanical tulip (first mechanical tulip) due to the weight of the game ball. The non-motorized accessory) 105 is opened (arrows X in FIGS. 24 and 25), and the ball can enter the first starting port B111. During the period in which the distribution member solenoid 34b is driven and the distribution member 34 is stopped in a state of being tilted to the left when viewed from the front, the game ball that has entered the normal electric accessory 100 is distributed to the second operating port 104, and the first When the game ball enters the 2 operating port 104, the second mechanical tulip (second non-electric accessory) 106 is opened by the weight of the game ball (arrow Y in FIGS. 24 and 25) to the second starting port 12. It is possible to enter the ball.

In this embodiment, the distribution member 34 is distributed to the first operating port 103 and the second operating port 104, and one ball enters the ordinary electric accessory 100 (specifically, the first operating port switch 103a is used. (Detecting one game ball) causes the distribution member 34 to be displaced from the stopped state to the driven state. Due to this displacement, if one game ball enters each operating port, the non-electric accessory corresponding to each operating port is displaced to the open state, so the specified number when the normal electric accessory 100 is opened is set. Two (the second is the first detection of the second actuating port switch 104a).

FIG. 26 is a block diagram showing the electrical wiring of the pachinko machine according to the fourth embodiment, and with respect to the block diagram of the first embodiment, the first actuating port switch 103a for detecting the game ball entering the first actuating port 103. , The second operating port switch 104a for detecting the game ball that has entered the second operating port 104 is additionally connected to the main control device 80 via the game board relay terminal plate 74.

Regarding the operation contents of the ordinary electric accessory 100 and the operation contents of the distribution member 34 at the time of hitting the normal drawing in the fourth embodiment, the prescribed number of winnings of the ordinary electric accessory 100 is changed from three to two with respect to the third embodiment. The changed points and the point that the distribution destination of the distribution member 34 in the stopped state was changed from the operating port 103 to the first operating port 103, and the distribution destination in the driving state was changed from the second starting port 12 to the second operating port 104. Become.

The operation contents of the normal electric accessory 100 and the operation contents of the distribution member 34 at the time of hitting the normal drawing in the normal open state and the first open extension state are the distribution destinations of the distribution member 34 when the game ball enters. , The first operating port 103 for opening the first mechanical tulip 105 (similar to the third embodiment in that the ball can enter the first starting port B111 as a result) is different. Since it is not expected that a game ball will enter, the timing chart will be the same as in Example 3, so the explanation will be used.

As shown in the timing chart of FIG. 28, even in the second open extension state of this embodiment, the ordinary electric accessory 100 opens once for 5.000 seconds for each hit in the normal drawing. Further, the distribution member 34 is displaced from the stopped state to the driven state when the first operating port switch 103a detects one game ball.

Therefore, when the normal electric accessory 100, which is expected to receive a plurality of game balls, is opened for 5.000 seconds, the first game ball enters the first operating port 103 and responds to the entry. By opening the first mechanical tulip (first non-electric accessory) 105, it is possible to easily win a prize in the first starting port B111. The second game ball enters the second operating port 104, and the second mechanical tulip (second non-electric accessory) 106 is opened in response to the entry to the second starting port 12. Easy winning is possible. Further, since the specified number of winnings of the ordinary electric accessory 100 in this embodiment is two, when the second operating port switch 104a detects a game ball that is the second entry ball into the ordinary electric accessory 100. The opening operation of the normal electric accessory 100 is completed, and 0.200 seconds after that point, the distribution member 34 is displaced from the driven state to the stopped state (returns to the original state). However, when the game balls are connected to each other and enter the normal electric accessory 100, two game balls may be distributed to the first operating port 103, so that the second operating port 104 detects one game ball. The configuration is such that the opening of the normal electric accessory 100 and the driving state of the distribution member 34 are continued until the normal electric accessory 100 is released (when the second operating port switch 104a detects one game ball, the opening of the ordinary electric accessory 100 is completed. , The driving of the distribution member 34 is terminated 0.200 seconds after that point).

The normal electric accessory 100 ends its opening operation when two game balls enter, but the first mechanical tulip (first non-electric accessory) 105 and the second start, which serve as the first start port B111. Since the prescribed number of prizes for each of the second mechanical tulip (second non-electric accessory) 106, which is the mouth 12, is two, the normal electric accessory 100 is opened once in the second open extension state. When the operation is performed, two prizes can be expected for each of the first starting port B111 and the second starting port 12.

The above is the description of the fourth embodiment. Also in this embodiment, the advantage of the second opening extension is higher than that of the first opening extension (the fluctuation of the second special figure makes it easier to generate a high-value jackpot game), and then the first opening extension. By making the opening pattern of the ordinary electric accessory 100 different between the state and the second open extension state, and by setting the operation trigger of the distribution member 34 as the entry of one game ball into the ordinary electric accessory 100. There is a difference in the ball entry rate into the second operating port 104 between the first open extension state and the second open extension state. With this configuration, the first starting port B111 can be won by opening the first mechanical tulip (first non-electric accessory) 105 by entering the ball into the first operating port 103 in either open extension state. However, the rate of entry into the second operating port 104 for opening the second mechanical tulip (second non-electric accessory) 106, which enables the winning of the second starting port 12, is in the first open extension state. And the second open extension state, and the player's advantage also changes according to the game state, which enhances the interest in the game.

A modified example will be described below. The following configuration can be considered as a modification of the third embodiment. The distribution member 34 is in a stopped state by tilting to the right to distribute the game ball to the operating port 103 except for the hit game, and the ordinary electric accessory 100 is displaced to the drive state at the same time as the normal electric accessory 100 is opened according to the hit in the normal drawing. When the second start port switch 12a detects two incoming balls during the hit game, the configuration may be such that the ball is displaced to the stopped state again.

note that. With the above configuration, it is desirable that the opening pattern of the ordinary electric accessory 100 in the first open extension state and the second open extension state is as follows. The opening pattern of the ordinary electric accessory 100 in the first opening extension state is to open once for 5.000 seconds, and if the game ball is normally fired, three prizes can be expected, so the second start Two game balls enter the mouth 12 and one game ball enters the operating port 103. However, it is also possible to reduce the probability of entering the operating port 103 by the player's technical intervention (single hitting or stopping hitting, allowing the ball to enter only the second starting port 12). In this opening pattern, although it is not time-efficient for the player, it is possible to win a prize mainly in the second starting port 12.

The opening pattern of the ordinary electric accessory 100 in the second opening extension state is that the opening is performed once for 1.000 seconds, and basically only one or two wins, so only the second starting port 12 is entered. do not. However, although it is rare, three prizes may be won, so the ball also enters the operating port 103. As a result, it is possible for the player to win a prize mainly in the second starting port 12 without technical intervention. Therefore, the advantage of the second open extension state can be higher than that of the first open extension state depending on the time efficiency and the necessity of technical intervention.

The following configuration can be considered as a modification of the fourth embodiment. The distribution member 34 is in a stopped state by tilting to the right to distribute the game ball to the first operating port 103 except for the hit game, and is displaced to the drive state at the same time as the normal electric accessory 100 is opened according to the normal drawing. When the second operating port 104a detects one ball entering during the hit game, the configuration may be such that the ball is displaced to the stopped state again.

note that. With the above configuration, it is desirable that the opening pattern of the ordinary electric accessory 100 in the first open extension state and the second open extension state is as follows. The opening pattern of the ordinary electric accessory 100 in the first opening extension state is to open once for 5.000 seconds, and if the game ball is normally fired, two prizes can be expected, so the second operation One game ball enters the mouth 104 and one game ball enters the first operating port 103. However, it is also possible to reduce the probability of entering the first operating port 103 by the technical intervention of the player (single hitting or stop hitting, the ball is allowed to enter only the second operating port 104). In this opening pattern, although it is not time-efficient for the player, it is possible to win a prize mainly in the second operating port 104.

The opening pattern of the ordinary electric accessory 100 in the second opening extension state is that the opening is performed once for 0.500 seconds, and basically only one prize is won, so only one ball is entered into the second operating port 104. However, although it is rare, two pieces may be won in the ordinary electric accessory 100, so one piece also enters the first operating port 103. As a result, it is possible for the player to win a prize mainly in the second starting port 12 without technical intervention. Therefore, as in the modified example of Example 3, the second open extension state can be more advantageous than the first open extension state depending on whether the time efficiency is good or bad and whether or not technical intervention is necessary.

As described above, according to the ball game machine of the present invention, after the jackpot game is completed, the opening pattern of the ordinary electric accessory shifts to a different first open extension state or second open extension state, and the ordinary electric accessory is inside the ordinary electric accessory. Depending on the combination of the operation of the distribution device and the opening pattern of the ordinary electric accessory, one of the starting ports in the ordinary electric accessory or the non-electric accessory that serves as the starting port is opened. By allocating to the operating port to be operated, it demonstrates a novel playability that has never been seen before. Therefore, it can be applied to a ball game machine having a game ball distribution device in a normal electric accessory and a plurality of open extension states having different opening patterns of the ordinary electric accessory.
