Furthermore, nowadays, a special entry ball receiving portion is provided inside the prize winning device, and when a receiving ball is received by this receiving portion, the closed door means is immediately reopened so that a large number of prizes can be regained. What has been done has been provided.

Generally, this mass winning type winning device closes the door when there is a preset number of winning balls when the door means is opened, and also when the jumping ball is received at a specific jumping ball receiving part. By limiting the number of releases to a certain number and continuing, the number of large prizes is limited. This restriction is generally equipped with a detection switch in the specific entry ball receiving part, and also a detection switch at the entry ball collecting port for guiding the winning ball to the prize ball collecting gutter on the back of the pachinko machine When, for example, 10 prizes are allowed by opening the door means once, and the opening of the door means is made possible 10 times in a row, detection of the winning ball addressed to one time is detected. Is detected by a detection switch provided in the above-mentioned entry ball collecting port, 10 consecutive openings are detected by a detection switch provided in a particular entry ball receiving portion, and the total number of winning balls 100 is counted and controlled.

As described above, the conventional mass-winning type winning device detects the number of consecutive opening of the door means and the number of winnings for one opening by two detection switches, and takes a means to limit the continuous maximum winning rate at the time of a large number of winnings. However, as is well known, this prize winning device sometimes causes a large number of prize balls to fly in an instant due to the opening of the door means. You may receive a prize ball.

As a result, in this type of conventional prize winning device, even if the total number of consecutive winning balls is set in advance, the number of consecutive winnings often exceeds the set number, and there is a bitter problem of setting an accurate number of consecutive winnings. there were.

In particular, it is difficult to keep an accurate set number because there is a time lag between the time when the detection switch provided therein is deep and the time when the last winning ball is detected and the door means is closed.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The present invention sets such a total winning a prize in such a conventional winning device, in particular, in a winning device capable of accepting a large amount of winning balls on the assumption that the door means is continuously opened. It is intended to provide a winning device for a pachinko machine that eliminates the variation in the number of balls and allows selective control of the number of winning balls that most closely approximates the set number.

[Means for Solving Problems] The present invention has been made on the basis of the above-described object, and is characterized in that a door means is provided at the entrance and a specific entry ball receiving portion is provided inside the identification means. The jumping ball receiving portion is provided with the first switch, and the jumping ball collecting port is provided with the second switch.
Switch closes the door means when a predetermined number of jump balls are counted when the door means is opened, while the specific jump ball receiving portion receives the jump ball when the door means is opened, and In the winning device in which the door means is re-opened when detected by the first switch, and the re-opening can be continuously opened within a certain number of times, the entry ball collecting port is provided with a third opening.
Detection switches are arranged in parallel, and the total number of jumping balls that jump in by repeatedly re-opening the door means a certain number of times is detected and counted, and when the preset number of balls is reached, the first switch is detected. Regardless of this, it is a winning device for pachinko machines that stops the opening of the door means.

The door means is provided with fan-shaped stoppers 10 on both side edges so as to project forward. When the door means is opened, the stoppers are brought into contact with the front surface of the mounting substrate 8 and opened forward with a slope of backward inclination. There is something that can be done.

A frame 11 integrally extending from the mounting substrate 8 is provided at the rear of the entrance 4 to form a hollow interior 12 of the winning device, and two parallel bars are provided in the front-rear direction at the center of the interior. To form a specific entry ball receiving base 13 and a first detection switch 14 is attached to this receiving base.

The frame portion 11 is sandwiched at its lower part to form a collecting port 15 for collecting incoming balls (winning balls), and a second detecting switch 16 and a third detecting switch 17 are arranged in parallel at this collecting port. Although not shown, the entry ball collecting port 15 communicates with a prize ball collecting chamber provided behind the game board 2 to guide the prize balls to the prize ball discharge actuating device.

In the figure, 18 is a solenoid which is an actuating means for restraining the door means 5 in a closed state, and 19 is a swinging piece which receives the projection of an abutment member 21 provided at the tip of the plunger 20 to close the door means.

The plunger 20 extends downward by a contracting spring 22 and swings about a support shaft 23 as a fulcrum via an abutting member 21.
19 is pushed down, and the arm 24 provided on the back surface of the door means 5 is pushed to always restrain the door means 5 in the closed posture. When the solenoid 24 is contracted by energization, the swing piece 19 is pushed down. The door means is opened and the weight of the stopper 10 of the door means 5 and the weight embedded in the stopper 10 is received to open the door means.

In the figure, reference numeral 26 is a display lamp that is lit when the door member is opened by the entry of a winning ball, and 27 is a display lamp that displays the number of winning balls.

Now, the switch 14 provided in the specific entry ball receiving base 13 is for detecting the winning ball received in this receiving base, and the solenoid 18 is excited by the signal emitted by this detection to open the door means. The number of prize balls received by the pedestal 13 is counted up to 10 here, and this is stored so that the once closed door member can be continuously opened for the number of times.

The door means is re-opened by receiving the winning ball on the pedestal 13 in the case of the above-mentioned setting continuously 10 times, and when a maximum of 10 times of opening is reversed, a series of opening operation is performed. Will end.

The continuous opening of the door means 5 based on the detection of the winning ball by the first and second switches 14 and 16 up to now is the same as in the conventional device, but in the device of the present invention, the third detection switch 17 is used. The total number of jump-in prize balls is counted, and when it is memorized and reaches the set number, it is detected immediately and the door means is closed, and the continuous opening operation is ended. Even if a winning ball is received on the table 13, it will not be reopened.

The display lamp 27 is a means for counting and displaying the number of balls received by the specific entry ball receiving table when the door means 5 is opened, and displays the remaining number of reopened balls.

[Effects of the Invention] Since the device of the present invention is configured as described above, in the case of this conventional insertion device, even if the number of continuous opening is set in advance, a constant value is obtained immediately before closing at the time of final opening. If there are specific winning balls exceeding the number of specified winning balls, a command to open the door means will be issued and it will be reopened, and it is possible to jump more than the set number of winning balls. According to the device of the present invention, the player continuously enjoys the pleasure of winning by simultaneously opening the door means, and at the same time, the total number of winning balls is detected and counted to reach the set number. Since the continuous opening of the door is immediately stopped at that time, there is an advantage that an almost accurate number can be set without allowing excessive entry of winning balls.

In the above embodiment, the door means 5 has a structure that tilts forward of the entrance 4, but a rotary wing piece pivotally attached to the side of the entrance is provided. The structure includes, but is not limited to, the case where the winning is enabled when opened horizontally, and the case where the winning is impossible by standing upright in the normal state is disabled.
In short, the door means may be one that opens and closes the entrance and guides the ball when it is opened to facilitate the winning, and disables or makes the winning difficult when closed.
