Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a prize ball payout control device for a pachinko machine, and more specifically, an electric motor for paying out a predetermined number of prize balls for winning a game ball into a winning opening (safe ball). The present invention relates to a control type prize ball payout control device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As is well known, a pachinko machine is provided with a prize ball storing and supplying section and a prize ball discharging section having a prize ball amount detecting means incorporated on the back side of the machine as a structure for storing and discharging prize balls. . In the pachinko game store, a large amount of prize balls, which are replenished each time the prize balls are lacking, are received by the supply facilities in the store in the prize ball storage and supply section and continuously supplied to the prize ball discharge section side. It is used for games. Under this, when a game ball enters each prize hole in the game board during pachinko game, the prize ball discharge part is activated once in accordance with the detection process of each safe ball, The predetermined number of prize balls thus set is paid out to the player side (ball dish side).

In such a pachinko machine, as one of the models classified according to the game content, if special game conditions are satisfied during the game, many safe balls are generated within the established time as a reward. In contrast, a lot of types are set so that a considerable amount of prize balls can be obtained. Therefore, in this type of pachinko machine, in order to prevent troubles due to many safe balls clogging during the establishment of special game conditions and to eliminate dissatisfaction of the player due to delay in paying prize balls, safe balls It is said that one of the most important things is to make the payout of prize balls for each of the balls as quick and smooth as possible, and to make the prize ball payout operation faster (high speed payout) each time. The machine uses a high-speed prize ball payout technology.

[0004]

In the above-described conventional high-speed award ball payout-type pachinko machine, troubles may occur in paying out award balls for each of many safe balls. That is, even if a stable high-speed payout is suitably performed every time when a sufficient amount of prize balls are in a proper continuous supply (communication) state, it is appropriate if a prize ball supply failure condition occurs. Fast payout will no longer be guaranteed. As a cause of this, in the pachinko machine used for the game, the ball shortage in the prize ball storage and supply section, the ball flow failure due to dust, etc. Poor supply of prize balls may occur due to situations such as replenishment (input), and in connection therewith, proper continuous supply of prize balls to the prize payout unit may be hindered. Therefore, in each high-speed payout,
Due to the delay of the supply (communication) speed with respect to the discharge speed of the prize balls, a predetermined number of prize balls cannot be accurately paid out, and there has been a big problem that an unspecified number of discharges or stop of the payout are caused.

By the way, at any of the current pachinko game stores, the replenishment equipment that is being implemented is one of them, and a prize is given to a plurality of (approximately 40) pachinko machines based on computer control processing. It is designed to provide ball distribution and supply. However, even in the normal replenishment operation of one replenishment facility, it is difficult to distribute to many pachinko machines under the same prize ball replenishment conditions all at once. Therefore, while performing a considerable amount of prize ball distribution and supply to one of the pachinko machines, the other pachinko machine notifies the shortage of prize balls (to the computer of the shortage of balls detection signal from the prize ball amount detecting means). In many cases, even if the player receives an input), it is not possible to immediately supply prize balls to the machine. This kind of replenishment situation is neither lack of function of the equipment itself nor malfunction.
Although the circumstances are unavoidable, it is a fact that the award supply delay and the abundant supply of a small amount of award balls described above are currently occurring.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been proposed in view of the above-mentioned problems, and supplies a prize ball to a prize ball payout unit related to a prize ball supply situation by a supply facility in a pachinko game hall.
In accordance with the change of (communication) state, the prize ball payout operation mode is optimized, and the preset number of prize balls can be accurately paid out for each safe ball. An object is to provide a payout control device.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to overcome the above-mentioned problems and achieve an intended purpose, the present invention receives a prize ball replenished from a replenishment facility of a pachinko game arcade in a prize ball storage and supply route, While supplying to the cutting operation part side, a predetermined number of prize balls for each one safe ball entering each winning opening of the game board are paid out by the operation of each unit of the ball cutting operation part. In a pachinko machine, a pitch-rotating sprocket-shaped ball cutting member that can receive and discharge the prize balls supplied from the prize ball storing and supplying path, and the ball cutting members for each pitch based on excitation / demagnetization control. A solenoid for regulating rotation, a ball detecting means for detecting prize balls supplied to the ball cutting member with reference to a set detection time, and a count detection of prize balls discharged at every pitch rotation of the ball cutting member. A possible exit detection means,
Solenoid operation control by detection time information processing based on ball presence signal from ball entry detection means The speed condition is set to be changeable and solenoid operation control by count detection information processing based on ball presence signal from exit detection means And an electronic payout control means set to end and stop, in a prize ball supply status to the ball cutting member, the payout control means, the ball presence signal from the ball detection means. , If the input is made within the set detection time, the solenoid is controlled to be excited / demagnetized under the high-speed mode condition, and if the input is made with a time difference larger than the set detection time,
The solenoid is set to perform excitation / demagnetization control in the low speed mode condition based on the determination process of the prize ball supply delay, and the solenoid is reactivated after the set number of prize ball payout operations in the low speed mode condition are completed. It is characterized in that the operation is controlled under the original high speed mode condition.

[0008]

[Function] The pachinko machine used in the game receives the prize balls replenished from the replenishment facility in the prize ball storing and supplying section, and supplies a part of the prize balls to the ball cutting operation section in a continuous communication state, Safe balls generated during the game are appropriately processed one by one, while the ball cutting operation unit based on the control processing of the payout control unit performs the payout operation once, and the ball detection unit, the solenoid, the ball cutting A predetermined number of prize balls are paid out by the cooperation of the members and the ball detection means. In such a state where the prize balls are supplied to the ball cutting member in each time of the prize ball payout operation, the ball presence signal from the ball entrance detecting means is always input within the set detection time. When the payout operation is performed by controlling the excitation / demagnetization under the mode condition, and when the input is made with a time difference larger than the set detection time, the solenoid is excited / demagnetized under the low-speed mode condition based on the judgment processing of the prize ball supply delay. The payout operation is performed by controlling. Then, after the dispensing operation of the set number of times under the low speed mode condition is completed, the solenoid is again actuated and controlled under the original high speed mode condition to perform the dispensing operation. In this way, the payout operation speed is appropriately changed to each of the high speed mode and the low speed mode in accordance with the change in the prize ball supply detection condition to the ball cutting operation unit, and the predetermined number of prize balls for each safe ball is set. Is paid out accurately.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, a prize ball payout control device for a pachinko machine according to the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings with reference to preferred embodiments.

FIG. 1 is a view showing the back surface of the entire pachinko machine of this embodiment. A set plate 2 is attached to the back surface of the front frame 1, and a prize ball B is attached to a ball cutting device 9 to be described later. The prize ball tank 3 for supplying is provided. Prize ball tank 3
The upper part is in communication with the replenishment equipment (not shown) of the pachinko game hall, and in response to the ball shortage detection signal of the prize ball amount detection means (not shown) in the tank, the control judgment processing of the computer of the replenishment equipment side Based on this, a predetermined amount of prize balls B are supplied from the supply facility into the prize ball tank 3. A horizontally long gutter 4 is disposed below the prize ball tank 3, and its right downstream end is connected to a ball supply path 5 formed in the up and down direction on the right side of the rear surface of the set plate 2. The ball supply path 5 is connected to the payout passage 6 and the ball removal path 7 on the downstream side thereof, and the upstream part of the payout passage 6 communicates with the upper ball dish (not shown) side via the supply hole 8. In addition, the downstream part is a lower bowl (not shown)
Communicating with the side. On the other hand, the ball removing passage 7 communicates with a ball collecting section (not shown). Note that the prize ball tank 3, the gutter 4, and the ball supply path 5 are entirely used as a prize ball storage supply unit.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the details of the ball supply path 5.
At a position near the left side of the ball supply path 5, a predetermined number of prize balls B preset for each safe ball are dispensed one by one to each of the ball plates. (Hereinafter, also referred to as “bulb cutting device”) 9 is installed. This ball cutting device 9
Is a substance actuating part of the prize ball payout control device, and is a sprocket-shaped ball cutting member capable of pitch rotation.
(Hereinafter also referred to as “sprocket”) 10, a solenoid 11 for ball cutting control, and the like are incorporated. Sprocket 10
Is rotatably supported by the set plate 2,
A large number of ball receiving portions 10a are formed on the outer periphery of the sprocket 10, and a part of the ball receiving portions 10a projects into the ball supply passage 5 through the opening 5a. A solenoid 11 is arranged near the left side of the sprocket 10, and an upper end of the movable iron piece 12 is pivotally supported by a bracket 11a of the solenoid 11.

When the solenoid 11 is not excited, the lower end of the movable iron piece 12 is hooked by the tension coil spring 13 in the engaging recess 10a of the sprocket 10, as shown in FIG. Disable rotation. As a result, the prize ball B in the ball supply path 5 is prevented from falling by the sprocket 10. Further, when the solenoid 11 is excited, the movable iron piece 12 is attracted to the core 11b of the solenoid 11 and the engagement with the engagement recess 10a is released, so that the sprocket 10 is rotatable. As a result, the prize ball B in the ball supply path 5 drops as the sprocket 10 rotates by one pitch (one ball) at a time. It should be noted that the solenoid 11 in the normal state maintains the non-excited state, and the movable iron piece 1
The sprocket 10 is stopped at 2 to prevent the prize ball B from falling.

At a required position of the ball supply path 5, an upper sensor 14 serving as an incoming ball detecting means for a prize ball to be supplied and a lower sensor 15 serving as an exit ball detecting means for a discharged prize ball. Are arranged in a vertically separated state. Both sensors 1
No. 4 and No. 15 are the prize balls B at the respective detection positions,
Since the light from the light emitting unit is received by the light receiving unit, an ON signal (no ball signal) is output. If there is a prize ball B, the light from the light emitting unit is blocked by the prize ball B and reaches the light receiving unit. Since it does not exist, it outputs an off signal (a signal with a ball). Then, the upper sensor 14 detects the prize ball B at the lowest position, which is received by the ball receiving portion 10a of the sprocket 10 and is prevented from falling, and the lower sensor 15 detects the prize ball B.
The number of prize balls B falling along with the rotation is detected.

The switching lever 1 is provided at a branch point between the dispensing passage 6 and the ball removing passage 7 connected to the downstream side of the ball supply passage 5.
6 is rotatably supported. This switching lever 16
Normally closes the ball removing passage 7 side, and therefore the prize ball B paid out from the ball cutting device 9
Will be supplied to the upper bowl through the dispensing passage 6.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 1, a game board 1a which is detachably set inside the front frame 1 is provided with a specific winning opening 19a and a normal winning opening 19b, and each winning opening 19a, All of the safe balls that have entered 19b flow into a common safe ball passage 20 provided in the lower portion of the rear surface of the set plate 2, and finally the safe ball detection processing device M (see FIG. 1).
According to the reference), the balls are detected one by one in a preceding order, and are discharged. By the way, each prize hole 19
Regarding a and 19b, the example is shown in which the type according to the condition for the number of payout prize balls for one safe ball is set separately for specific use and normal use, and the specific safe ball that has entered the specific winning opening 19a is a prize. It is detected and classified by the mouth sensor 18 and is flown into the safe ball passage 20.

A cover (not shown) is removably attached to the rear surface of the set plate 2 so as to close the rear surfaces of the ball supply path 5, the payout path 6, the ball removal path 7, and the safe ball path 20. ing. Further, a control box 21 for performing control processing relating to prize ball payout is arranged at a required portion on the back side of the front frame 1, and a payout speed of the ball cutting device 9, that is, a control circuit board in the control box 21 Excitation and demagnetization switching operation speed mode of the solenoid 11 for high speed (including switching to low speed)
The payout mode switching means 22 for selectively changing between the low speed mode and the low speed mode is incorporated, and for convenience, it is additionally indicated as a mode switch 22 in FIG.

Next, the electrical construction of the prize ball payout control device of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.

Inside the control box 21, a microcomputer (hereinafter simply referred to as "microcomputer") 25 as a payout control means is housed. The upper sensor 14 and the lower sensor 15 are provided on the input side of the microcomputer 25.
The mode switch 22 is also connected, and the solenoid 11 is connected to the output side via a drive circuit (not shown).

The microcomputer 25 includes a random access memory (RAM) 27 and a read only memory (ROM) 2
Eight. Various programs are stored in the ROM 28,
That is, when the safe sphere detection processing device M detects a safe sphere, a program for controlling the solenoid 11 of the sphere cutting device 9 to be excited is stored based on the preset prize payout number setting condition. According to the above, the microcomputer 25 executes various processes. Further, the RAM 27 is adapted to temporarily store data of processing performed by the microcomputer 25.

Whether or not the microcomputer 25 is inputting a ball presence signal (OFF signal) from the upper sensor 14 on the basis of the input of the safe ball detection signal (the first prize ball B to be paid out to the player is It is determined whether or not the ball is received in the ball receiving portion 10a of the sprocket 10), and when the ball presence signal is input, the solenoid 11 is excited to sprocket 10
To be freely rotatable. And after exciting the solenoid 11,
When the no-sphere signal (ON signal) is input from the upper sensor 14, the microcomputer 25 causes the prize ball B located at the detection portion of the upper sensor 14 to drop as the sprocket 10 rotates,
It is determined that the upper sensor 14 is turned on due to the gap between the prize ball B and the prize ball B above the prize ball B, that is, the prize ball B has dropped normally. When the no-sphere signal is input, the microcomputer 25 demagnetizes the solenoid 11. Therefore, one prize ball B is paid out for each of the above operations, and the paid prize ball B is paid out by the lower sensor 15.
Is detected by.

[0021]

Next, the process of switching the payout operation speed of the prize ball payout control device of the present embodiment configured as described above will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

During the pachinko game, each winning hole 1
When the safe spheres entering 9a and 19b are detected one by one in the preceding order by the detection switch (not shown) of the safe sphere detection processing device M, the microcomputer 25 determines in step 1 the low speed flag F ₁ and the payout speed switching flag F. ₂ for each F ₁ =
After setting 0, F ₂ = 0 and setting the count value t of the prize ball counter built in the RAM 27 to t = 0, the process proceeds to step 2 and the upper sensor 14 is turned off (the ball presence signal is input). It is determined whether or not.

When the upper sensor 14 is turned off, the microcomputer 25 determines that the prize ball B supplied toward the ball cutting device 9 is received in the ball receiving portion 10a of the sprocket 10 and proceeds to step 3. And the low speed flag is set to 1 (F ₁ =
It is determined whether or not 1). Since the low speed flag F ₁ is set to F ₁ = 0 in step 1, the low speed flag F ₁ is inverted (F ₁ = 1) in step 4, and step 5
Then, it is determined whether or not the count value t of the prize ball counter is larger than the set detection time value (in this embodiment, the detection time is "32" ms as an example). Since this count value t is set to t = 0 in step 1, the microcomputer 25 proceeds to step 6 and sets the count value n of the counter built in the RAM 27 to 0, and also in step 7. The count value t of the prize ball counter is cleared (t = 0).

Subsequently, the microcomputer 25 proceeds to step 8 and determines whether or not the payout speed switching flag F ₂ is 1 (F ₂ = 1). This payout speed switching flag F
₂ is set to F ₂ = 0 in step 1 above,
In step 9, it is determined whether or not the count value n of the counter is a set determination value (in this embodiment, the number of determinations is "3" as an example). Since this count value n is set to n = 0 in step 6, the process proceeds to step 10 and it is determined whether or not the mode switch 22 is turned on. When it is determined that the switch 22 is not turned on, that is, the switch 22 is turned off, the high speed payout mode is automatically set in step 11, and the sprocket 10 is caused to perform the excitation / demagnetization operation of the solenoid 11 at high speed. One prize ball B that has been received is dropped.

On the other hand, when the microcomputer 25 determines in step 10 that the mode switch 22 is manually turned on, the microcomputer 25 sets the low speed payout mode in step 21, causes the solenoid 11 to perform the excitation / demagnetization operation at a low speed, and causes the sprocket to rotate. One prize ball B received by 10 is dropped.

The microcomputer 25 returns to step 2 under the setting of one of the high speed payout mode and the low speed payout mode, and repeats the same processing as described above.
Under the condition that a sufficient number of prize balls B are stored and stably supplied (inserted) in the prize ball storage / supply unit, when one prize ball B is dispensed as described above, the next prize ball B is paid out. B falls by its own weight and is received by the sprocket 10, and the upper sensor 14 outputs a ball presence signal (OFF signal), so the routine proceeds to step 3. Then, the microcomputer 25 determines in step 3 the low speed flag F
It is determined whether or not ₁ = 1, but since the low speed flag F ₁ is set to F ₁ = 1 in step 4, the processing of steps 4 to 7 is not performed, and the process proceeds to step 8. The process after step 8 is repeated in the same manner as described above.

As described above, the microcomputer 25 can perform the prize ball payout operation process under any of the high speed and low speed mode conditions selected by the mode switch 22. Therefore, the shift control process of the prize-ball payout operation when the high-speed mode condition (see steps 10 and 11 in FIG. 4) is set by the mode switch 22 will be described.

That is, in the judgment of step 2 in FIG. 4, if the prize ball B is not detected by the upper sensor 14, the microcomputer 25 proceeds to step 12 to invert the low speed flag F ₁ (F ₁ = 0). After that, the process proceeds to step 13 and "1" is added to the count value t of the prize ball counter, the process from step 8 is performed in the same manner as described above, and the process returns to step 2. In this way, the count value t of the prize ball counter
Is incremented by "1" every time step 13 is passed.

In step 2, the upper sensor 1 is again used.
When 4 detects the prize ball B and outputs an off signal (ball presence signal), the microcomputer 25 carries out the processing from step 3 onward, but in step 12 the low speed flag F ₁ = 0 is set. Therefore, after going through step 3, step 4
Then, the low speed flag F ₁ is inverted (F ₁ = 1), and then step 5
Then, it is judged whether or not the count value t of the prize ball counter is larger than "32".

Here, the count value t of the prize ball counter
When it is determined that is larger than “32”, the microcomputer 25
The supply of the prize ball B to the ball cutting device 9 follows the payout operation smoothly because the prize ball B in the prize ball storage and supply path is empty or the supply facility in the pachinko game hall is in the condition that the supply of the prize ball is delayed. It is judged that the counter has not been performed, the process proceeds to step 14, "1" is added to the count value n of the counter, the processes of steps 7 and 8 are performed in the same manner as described above, and then the process proceeds to step 9. In this way, the count value n of the counter is incremented by "1" every time step 14 is passed. Then, the microcomputer 25 determines in step 9 whether or not the count value n of the counter is "3", and returns to step 2 again through steps 10 and 11 until the count value n becomes "3". .

Therefore, when the mode switch 22 is not turned on (off), the low speed payout mode is immediately set even if the count value t of the prize ball counter becomes larger than "32" in step 5. rather than,
Such a state in step 5 (count value t>
The set initial high-speed payout mode is set and maintained until 32) is determined three times in a row. The reason why the count value t by the prize ball counter becomes t> 32 is not limited to the above-mentioned delay in the supply of the prize ball B to the ball cutting device 9 due to the delay in prize ball replenishment described above. For example, the supply (communication) of the prize ball B may be temporarily interrupted by dust or the like, or the prize ball B may be temporarily stopped due to defective ball flow. It is considered that there is a possibility that the detection position of the upper sensor 14 may be temporarily delayed, and the number of determinations is set to 3 to cope with such a situation.

When the microcomputer 25 determines in step 9 that the count value n of the counter has reached "3", the ball cutting device 9 due to a reduction in prize balls or a delay in replenishment.
It is determined that the supply (communication) of the prize ball B to the player is delayed, and the process proceeds to step 15 to reverse the payout speed switching flag F ₂ (F ₂
= 1) and set the count value m of the payout counter built in the RAM 27 to 0, and then step 16
The low speed payout mode is set by and the excitation / demagnetization operation of the solenoid 11 is performed at a low speed.

Subsequently, the microcomputer 25 proceeds to step 17 to set the count value m of the payout counter to the set safe sphere number value (in this embodiment, "20" safe spheres are taken as an example).
Or not. Since this count value m is cleared in step 15, the microcomputer 25
The process proceeds to step 18, and based on the ball count detection of the lower sensor 15, it is determined whether or not each prize ball is paid out. When the lower sensor 15 detects that a predetermined number of prize balls have been paid out, the process proceeds to step 19 to set the count value m to "1".
Then, the process returns to step 2 again. In this way, the count value m of the payout counter is calculated every time a predetermined number of prize balls B are paid out from the ball cutting device 9 in the low speed mode for each unit.
"1" will be added. If the end of payout of the prize balls B is not detected in step 18, the microcomputer 25 returns to step 2 without adding "1" to the count value m of the payout counter.

Then, the microcomputer 25 again executes step 2
Although the following processing is repeated, the payout speed switching flag F ₂ is inverted (F ₂ = 1) in step 15 as described above.
It is determined that ₂ is "1", and the processes of step 16 and the subsequent steps are executed without performing the processes of steps 9 and 15. This process is repeated until the count value m of the payout counter reaches "20" in step 17. Therefore, the low speed payout mode set as described above is equivalent to the safe ball “2
It is maintained until the operation of paying out "0" prize balls is completed.

When the microcomputer 25 determines in step 17 that the count value m of the payout counter has reached "20", the prize balls replenished from the replenishing facility are sufficiently stored in the prize ball storing and supplying section. , It is determined that the continuous supply is properly supplied to the ball cutting device 9, the process proceeds to step 20, the payout speed switching flag F ₂ is reversed (F ₂ = 0), and
After clearing the count value n of the counter (n = 0), the process returns to step 2 and the original high speed payout mode is automatically restored.

By the way, it takes a considerable time to finish the prize ball payout operation for 20 times in the low speed mode based on the detection processing of "20" safe balls one by one. Therefore, even if the replenishment facility temporarily shows a delay in prize ball replenishment, if the payout time for 20 times is taken into consideration, a sufficient amount will be stored in the prize ball storage and supply unit within this time. It can be seen that the prize balls are stored (stored) and stably supplied (passed) to the ball cutting device 9.

[0037]

As described above in detail, the prize ball payout control device in the pachinko machine according to the present invention stores the prize balls in each prize ball payout operation of the ball cutting operation unit based on the control processing of the payout control means. If the detection signal from the ball entrance detection means is always input within the set detection time while the prize balls in the supply section are being stably supplied to the ball cutting operation section with continuous penetration, It is possible to pay out a predetermined number of prize balls to the player side as soon as possible by operating the payout part under normal high speed mode conditions. When the detection signal from the ball detection means is input with a time difference larger than the set detection time, the ball cutting operation unit is operated in the low speed mode condition based on the judgment processing of defective ball passing or supply delay. By performing the payout operation, a predetermined number of prize balls can be accurately paid out slowly. After completion of the set number of payout operations under the low speed mode condition, the payout operation can be performed again under the original high speed mode condition in response to the recovery of stable supply of prize balls.

As described above, according to the prize ball payout control device of the present invention, the payout operation speed is properly adjusted to each of the high speed mode and the low speed mode according to the change of the prize ball supply detection condition to the ball cutting operation section. The prize balls can be accurately paid out to a predetermined number for each safe ball selected. Therefore, even if there is a shortage of prize balls in each pachinko machine used in the game, even if the supply equipment in the pachinko game hall temporarily presents a prize ball supply delay etc. An accurate prize-ball payout operation can be performed under appropriate payout speed conditions according to the state of accommodation and supply of prizeballs due to the supply situation. As a result, even if a large number of pachinko machines with game contents that can generate a large number of safe balls in the special game state are executed under the condition that prize balls are distributed from a common supply facility, each pachinko machine In this case, proper payout of prize balls is always guaranteed.
