Description

The present invention relates to a pachinko game machine.

[Conventional technology]

When playing a pachinko game, it is necessary to borrow a pachinko ball. When you insert coins into the ball lending machine, you can borrow pachinko balls for the amount of coins you have inserted. Conventionally, as a ball lending machine of this type, a thin ball lending machine, which is almost completely filled in a space between adjacent pachinko machines, a so-called thin ball lending machine is mainly used. The formation position of the coin insertion slot formed in this thin ball lending machine is within the reach of the player. Therefore, when a player newly borrows a pachinko ball during a game, the player can borrow the pachinko ball while playing the game without leaving the pachinko machine, and the game can be continued without interruption. it can.

However, in the past, with this type of thin ball lending machine (hereinafter referred to as conventional thin ball lending machine), it is not possible to borrow pachinko balls with banknotes, so the number of remaining pachinko balls used for games is small. Or, if it disappears, if the player has only banknotes, the game is temporarily interrupted, and coin exchange machines for exchanging banknotes into coins (hereinafter simply referred to as currency exchange) are installed around a prize exchange place or around Pachinko Island. Machine), exchange the bills into coins at the exchange machine, return to the pachinko machine again, and borrow the pachinko balls with the exchanged coins.
It was necessary to restart the game.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention]

Therefore, in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. Sho 63-186681, a conventional thin ball lending machine is a pachinko game machine provided between adjacent pachinko machines, having a bill insertion slot and a coin ejection slot, and A configuration is disclosed in which a bill exchange machine is attached to a curtain plate (a plate provided above a pachinko machine) portion of a pachinko game machine.

In a pachinko gaming machine having the above money changer,
When a player exchanges bills, there is no need to go to a money exchange machine installed around a prize exchange or around Pachinko Island.

However, since the bill insertion slot of this bill changer is in a position that the player cannot reach unless the player stands up, a player who does not have coins but only bills can change bills into coins while sitting. I couldn't, so I had to interrupt the game.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to borrow a pachinko ball without interrupting the game, not only when the player has coins but also when he does not have coins but only banknotes. To do so.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

In order to solve the above problems, the pachinko gaming apparatus according to the present invention is a pachinko gaming apparatus in which a plurality of pachinko machines are installed on a pachinko machine stand, and between adjacent pachinko machines, a pachinko ball is inserted by inserting a coin. A coin lending machine for exchanging and discharging and a coin exchanging machine for exchanging and ejecting coins by inserting bills are provided at the top and bottom, and the bill insertion slot of the coin exchanging machine is formed vertically and the bills are oriented vertically. It is characterized in that it is configured to be inserted.

[Action]

In the pachinko game device according to the present invention, a ball lending machine,
A money changer is provided between adjacent pachinko machines. Therefore, the bill insertion slot formed in the money changer and the coin slot formed in the ball lending machine are within the reach of the player while playing the game.
Therefore, even a player who has only banknotes during the game does not need to stand up to borrow a pachinko ball, and can continue the game without interruption. As the procedure, first, the bills are once changed into coins by a money changer. Subsequently, the exchanged coins are exchanged for pachinko balls that are ejected by inserting them into a ball lending machine.

Moreover, since the bill insertion slot of the money changer according to the present invention is formed vertically and the bills are inserted vertically, the money changer having a small width can be obtained. The width can be, for example, about the same as a conventional thin ball lending machine. Further, in the present invention, the ball lending machine and the money changer provided between the adjacent pachinko machines are provided in upper and lower two stages with one on the upper side and the other on the lower side. Therefore, despite the fact that both of these machines are installed,
The space for installing these may be approximately the same as the space for installing a conventional thin ball lending machine, for example.

〔The invention's effect〕

Even a player who has only banknotes can borrow a pachinko ball while playing a game and continue the game without interruption.

Further, although two ball lending machines and a money changer are installed, the space for installing these may be approximately the same as the space for installing a conventional thin ball lending machine, for example.

〔Example〕

A pachinko gaming apparatus according to the present invention will be described based on an embodiment shown in the drawings.

1 and 2 are diagrams showing a pachinko gaming apparatus 1.

A plurality of pachinko machines 3, ... Are lined up in a longitudinal direction above a pachinko machine base 2 which is fixed between a plurality of pillars erected on the floor in the game arcade via a lower member 21. The pachinko machines 3, ... Are fixed by a lower member 21 and an upper member 22. Between the adjacent pachinko machines 3 and 3, a ball lending machine 4 is arranged on the upper side and a money changer 5 is arranged on the lower side, respectively. A money changer 5 is provided.

An openable glass door 31 is attached to the front of the pachinko machine 3. A game board 32 in which a plurality of guide nails are driven and a safe port and an out port are appropriately formed is attached to the inside thereof. Also, the glass door 31
Underneath is provided a tray 33 from which a predetermined number of prize balls are discharged when a pachinko ball enters the safe mouth.

The ball lending machine 4 is provided with a coin insertion slot 41 and a pachinko ball ejection section 42. 1 in this coin slot 41
When a coin such as a 00-yen coin, a 500-yen coin, or a coin lending machine is inserted, and the inserted coin is a normal coin, the pachinko ball ejecting unit 42 is the pachinko ball corresponding to the inserted amount. Can be borrowed from the pachinko balls. The coins inserted from the coin slot 41 are collected by a coin collecting box (not shown) by the collecting conveyor 43 arranged on the back side of the pachinko machine 3.
Be transported to.

The money changer 5 has a bill insertion slot 51 and a coin ejection slot 52.
The banknote insertion slot 51 is formed vertically so that the banknote is inserted vertically. Banknote insertion slot 5
When a bill, for example, a 1000-yen bill, is inserted from 1 and the inserted bill is normal, the inserted bill is exchanged for coins, and coins of an amount commensurate with the inserted amount are ejected from the coin outlet 52. To be done. The banknotes inserted through the banknote insertion slot 51 are transported to a banknote collection box (not shown) by a banknote transport conveyor 53 arranged on the back side of the pachinko machine 3. The coins discharged from the coin discharge section 52 are conveyed from a coin supply box (not shown) by the supply conveyor 54 and collected in the hopper 55. When a bill is inserted into the bill insertion slot 51,
The lower part of the hopper 55 is opened, and coins of an amount commensurate with the amount of inserted banknotes are ejected from the coin ejecting section 52.

When a player borrows a pachinko ball, if he has a coin, he or she borrows a pachinko ball by inserting a coin into the coin slot 41 of the ball lending machine 4. If the player has only banknotes, first, the money changer 5
The banknotes are inserted into the banknote insertion slot 51 of the coin, and the coins are once exchanged for coins.
By throwing in 1, you can rent a pachinko ball. At this time, the coin insertion slot 41 and the bill insertion slot 5
Since 1, the pachinko ball ejecting section 42 and the coin ejecting section 52 are all within the reach of the user while sitting down, the game can be continued without interruption.

In this embodiment, one pachinko machine 3 is provided with one set of a ball lending machine 4 and a money changing machine 5.
One set of ball lending machine 4 and currency exchange machine 5 may be provided for each of the pachinko machines 3 and 3.
