Description

  The present invention relates to a pachinko machine installed in a game hall such as a pachinko parlor.

  Pachinko machines have a model called Digipachi (formerly the first type) that determines whether or not a lottery is performed by electronic lottery using random numbers when a game ball enters a starter chuck provided in the game area . When winning in the electronic lottery, the attacker provided in the game area is released. When the attacker is released, the game ball flowing down the game area can be awarded to the big prize opening provided in the attacker. A player can obtain a lot of prize balls by winning a lot of game balls in the big prize opening.

  In this way, in a digital pachinko machine, an electronic lottery is performed to determine whether or not a game ball enters the start chucker, so the player first launches the game ball toward the start chucker. . In addition, when an electronic lottery is performed and a winning combination is made, a game ball is shot out toward the big winning opening inside the attacker.

  Since the strength of launching the game ball is proportional to the rotation angle of the handle, if the handle is fixed at a certain rotation angle, the game ball is launched in a certain direction. Therefore, it is only necessary to rotate the handle so that the game ball is launched toward a target such as a starting chucker and fix the game ball in the rotated state, and the handle operation is extremely simple.

If the handle operation is simple, the game becomes monotonous and lacks interest. Therefore, in the pachinko machine described in Patent Document 1, the driving of the blade that opens and closes the winning opening is linked to the handle operation. Specifically, when the handle is rotated, the blade of the winning opening is closed, and when the rotation operation of the handle is stopped, the blade of the winning opening is opened. That is, since the blades are closed while the handle is rotated, the game ball cannot be won in the winning opening. That is, in order to win the game ball in the winning opening, after rotating the handle to launch the game ball, it is necessary to stop the rotation of the handle and open the blade. In this way, the player is always required to operate the steering wheel.

  The start winning detection sensor 30 is provided inside the start chucker 20 (see FIG. 1), and detects the winning of the game ball 16. The start winning detection sensor 30 outputs a chucker winning signal to the CPU 26 in response to detecting the winning of the game ball 16. The CPU 26 drives the electronic lottery circuit 28 in response to the input of the chucker winning signal from the start winning detection sensor 30.

  The electronic lottery circuit 28 performs a winning lottery using random numbers and determines a winning or a loss. In the winning lottery, the random number extracted at the time of the lottery is compared with a winning determination table, and it is determined whether the extracted random number is a winning random number or not. The electronic lottery circuit 28 outputs a hit signal to the CPU 26 when it is determined to win, and outputs a lose signal to the CPU 26 when it is determined to be lost. The CPU 26 displays the lottery result on the screen 19a (see FIG. 1) of the liquid crystal display 19 in response to the input of the winning signal or the loss signal from the electronic lottery circuit 28.

  Further, the CPU (opening / closing control means) 26 controls the driving of the winning devices 22 and 23 in response to the input of the winning signal from the electronic lottery circuit 28 and opens and closes the attackers 22a and 23a. First, the attackers 22a and 23a are each opened 90 degrees which is the maximum opening angle. After that, the opening / closing operation of the attackers 22 a and 23 a is performed in relation to the rotation angle signal output from the rotation angle detection sensor 29.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the first attacker 22a of the first winning device 22 is closed at a constant speed (for example, 9 ° / sec) when the rotation angle signal is less than 90 ° (see FIG. 3A). When the rotation angle signal exceeds 90 ° (see FIG. 4A), it rotates in the opening direction at a constant speed (for example, 9 ° / sec) (see FIG. 3B). 4 (B)). When the rotation angle signal is 90 °, the first attacker 22a does not rotate.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 7, the second attacker 23a of the second winning device 23 has a constant speed (for example, 9 ° / sec) when the rotation angle signal is less than 90 ° (see FIG. 3A). When the rotation angle signal exceeds 90 ° (see FIG. 4A), it rotates in the closing direction at a constant speed (for example, 9 ° / sec). (See FIG. 4C). When the rotation angle signal is 90 °, the second attacker 23a does not rotate.

  The first attacker open / close detection sensor 31 is built in the first winning device 22 (see FIG. 1), detects the opening angle of the first attacker 22a, and outputs an opening angle signal to the CPU. When the opening angle signal of 0 ° is input from the first attacker open / close detection sensor 31, the CPU 26 controls the first winning device 22 and does not rotate the first attacker 22a in the closing direction. That is, when the CPU 26 controls the first winning device 22 to rotate the first attacker 22a in the closing direction and receives an opening angle signal of 0 ° from the first attacker open / close detection sensor 31, the CPU 26 1 The operation of closing the attacker 22a is stopped.

  On the other hand, when a 90 ° opening angle signal is input from the first attacker open / close detection sensor 31, the CPU 26 controls the first winning device 22 and does not rotate the first attacker 22a in the opening direction. That is, when the CPU 26 controls the first winning device 22 to rotate the first attacker 22a in the opening direction and receives an opening angle signal of 90 ° from the first attacker open / close detection sensor 31, the CPU 26 1 The operation of opening the attacker 22a is stopped.

  The second attacker opening / closing detection sensor 32 is built in the second winning device 23 (see FIG. 1), detects the opening angle of the second attacker 23a, and outputs an opening angle signal to the CPU 26. When the opening angle signal of 0 ° is input from the second attacker open / close detection sensor 32, the CPU 26 controls the second winning device 23 and does not rotate the second attacker 23a in the closing direction. That is, when the CPU 26 controls the second winning device 23 to rotate the second attacker 23a in the closing direction and receives an opening angle signal of 0 ° from the second attacker open / close detection sensor 32, the CPU 26 2 The operation of closing the attacker 23a is stopped.

  On the other hand, when a 90 ° opening angle signal is input from the second attacker open / close detection sensor 32, the CPU 26 controls the second winning device 23 and does not rotate the second attacker 23a in the opening direction. That is, when the CPU 26 controls the second winning device 23 and rotates the second attacker 23a in the opening direction, when the 90 ° opening angle signal is input from the second attacker open / close detection sensor 32, the CPU 26 2. Stop opening the attacker 23a.

  The first winning winning detection sensor 33 is provided in a large winning opening provided inside the first winning device 22 (see FIG. 1), and detects the winning winning of the game ball 16. The first winning winning detection sensor 33 outputs a winning winning signal to the CPU 26 in response to the winning of the game ball 16.

  The second winning prize detection sensor 34 is provided in a large winning opening provided inside the second winning apparatus 23 (see FIG. 1) and detects the winning prize of the game ball 16. The second winning winning detection sensor 34 outputs a winning winning signal to the CPU 26 in response to the winning of the game ball 16.

  The CPU 26 responds to the winning winning signal being input from the first winning detection sensor 32 or in response to the winning winning signal being input from the second winning detection sensor 33 to the winning ball payout device 35. Drive. The prize ball payout device 35 is driven by the CPU 26 to which a winning prize signal is input, and pays out a predetermined quantity (for example, 10 shots) of the game balls 16 to the supply tray 15 as prize balls.

  Next, the operation of the pachinko machine 11 configured as described above will be described with reference to FIG. When the game ball 16 wins the starting chucker 20, the electronic lottery circuit 28 is driven, and a winning lottery for determining a winning or a lose is performed.

  When winning is determined by winning lottery, the mode is changed to winning mode. In the hit mode, 16 round games are performed. In each round, first, the attackers 22a and 23a of the winning devices 22 and 23 are opened by 90 ° which is the maximum opening angle. Then, the player operates the handle 17 to fire the game ball 16 in the game area 13 a of the game board 13, and causes the game ball 16 to win in the big winning opening of the winning devices 22 and 23.

  When the rotation angle of the operated handle 17 is less than 90 ° and the game ball 16 is fired with such a strength that it flows down to the left side of the center accessory 18 (see FIG. 3A), the center accessory 18 If the opening angle is not 0 °, the first attacker 22a of the first winning device 22 located on the left side of the first winning device 22 on the left side of the game ball 16 rotates in the closing direction (see FIG. 3B). Further, the second attacker 23a of the second winning device 23, which is located on the right side of the center accessory 18 and the side where the game ball 16 does not flow down, rotates in the opening direction unless the opening angle is the maximum 90 ° (see FIG. 3 (C)).

  On the other hand, when the rotation angle of the operated handle 17 exceeds 90 ° and the game ball 16 is fired with such a strength that it flows down to the right side of the center accessory 18 (see FIG. 4A), the center accessory The first attacker 22a of the first winning device 22 located on the left side of 18 and the side where the game ball 16 does not flow down rotates in the opening direction unless the opening angle is 90 ° (see FIG. 4B). ). Further, the second attacker 23a of the second winning device 23, which is located on the right side of the center accessory 18 and on the side where the game ball 16 flows down, rotates in the closing direction unless the opening angle is 0 ° (FIG. 4 ( C)).

  When the rotation angle of the operated handle 17 is 90 ° and the game ball 16 is fired with a strength that flows down the left and right centers of the game board 13, the first and second winning devices 22, 23 are used. None of the attackers 22a and 23a rotate, and the opening angle of the attackers 22a and 23a is maintained.

  When 10 game balls 16 are won in the big winning openings of the winning devices 22 and 23, or 30 seconds have elapsed from the start of the round, one round is completed, and the attackers 22a and 23a are closed. The process is repeated up to 16 rounds, and the hit mode ends when all rounds are completed.

  In this way, the attacker 22a (or 23a) of the winning device 22 (or 23) positioned on the side where the launched game ball 16 flows down rotates in the closing direction, and the winning game positioned on the side where the launched game ball 16 does not flow down. Since the attacker 23a (or 22a) of the device 23 (or 22) rotates in the opening direction, the game ball 16 is awarded to the big winning opening of the winning device 22 (or 23) with the rotation angle of the handle 17 fixed. I can't. In order to win the game ball 16 in the big winning opening of the winning devices 22 and 23, the rotation angle of the handle 17 is changed, and the rotation angles of the attackers 22a and 23a of the winning devices 22 and 23 and the gaming ball 16 are fired. It is required to adjust the relationship with the strength to do. That is, the operation of the handle 17 becomes irregular, and the game becomes complicated and interesting.

  In the first embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the opening / closing speeds of the attackers 22 a and 23 a of the winning devices 22 and 23 are constant, but in a stepwise manner corresponding to the rotation angle of the handle 17. It may be changed. In the pachinko machine 11 (see FIG. 1) of the second embodiment to be described next, the rotation angle (90 °) of the handle 17 that launches the game ball 16 with the strength to flow down the left and right centers of the game board 13 is used as a reference angle. The opening / closing speeds of the attackers 22a and 23a increase stepwise as the rotation angle from the reference angle increases.

  In the pachinko machine 11 according to the second embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9, the first attacker 22a of the first winning device 22 has a constant high speed (for example, 12 ° / sec) when the rotation angle signal is less than 25 °. ) In the closing direction, and when the rotation angle signal is 25 ° or more and less than 90 °, it rotates in the closing direction at a constant low speed (for example, 6 ° / sec). Further, when the rotation angle signal exceeds 90 ° and is equal to or less than 155 °, the rotation angle signal is rotated at a constant low speed (for example, 6 ° / sec), and when the rotation angle signal exceeds 155 °, the constant high speed ( For example, it rotates in the opening direction at 12 ° / sec. When the rotation angle signal is 90 °, the first attacker 22a does not rotate.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 10, the second attacker 23a of the second winning device 23 rotates in a direction to open at a constant high speed (for example, 12 ° / sec) when the rotation angle signal is less than 25 °, When the rotation angle signal is 25 ° or more and less than 90 °, the rotation angle signal rotates at a constant low speed (for example, 6 ° / sec). Further, when the rotation angle signal exceeds 90 ° and is 155 ° or less, the rotation angle is rotated at a constant low speed (for example, 6 ° / sec), and when the rotation angle signal exceeds 155 °, the constant high speed ( For example, it rotates in the closing direction at 12 ° / sec. When the rotation angle signal is 90 °, the second attacker 23a does not rotate.

  As described above, since the opening / closing speed of the attackers 22a and 23a increases stepwise as the rotation angle of the handle 17 from the reference angle (90 °) increases, the operation of the handle 17 becomes more irregular and the game is more complicated. It will be interesting. The configuration is the same as that of the pachinko machine 11 in the first embodiment except for the relationship between the rotation angle of the handle 17 and the opening / closing speeds of the attackers 22a and 23a of the winning devices 22 and 23. Illustration and detailed description are omitted. The operation of the pachinko machine 11 configured as described above is also the same as that of the pachinko machine 11 in the first embodiment, and detailed description thereof is omitted.

  In the second embodiment, the opening / closing speeds of the attackers 22a and 23a of the winning devices 22 and 23 are changed in two steps: high speed (for example, 12 ° / sec) and low speed (for example, 6 ° / sec). However, it may be changed in three or more stages.

  In the above embodiments, the opening / closing speeds of the attackers 22a and 23a of the winning devices 22 and 23 are constant, or change stepwise corresponding to the rotation angle of the handle 17, and are constant at high speed and low speed. It is not limited to being constant. In the pachinko machine 11 (see FIG. 1) of the third embodiment to be described next, the rotation angle (90 °) of the handle 17 that launches the game ball 16 with the strength to flow down the left and right centers of the game board 13 is the reference angle. The attackers 22a and 23a are opened and closed at a speed proportional to the rotation angle from the reference angle.

  In the pachinko machine 11 of the third embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11, the first attacker 22a of the first winning device 22 sets the rotation angle of the handle 17 in [°] units when the rotation angle signal is less than 90 °. When D is displayed as a numerical value, for example, when rotating at a speed of −2 × D / 15 + 12 [° / sec] and the rotation angle signal exceeds 90 °, for example, 2 × D / 15-12 [° / sec]. It rotates in the opening direction at a speed of]. When the rotation angle signal is 90 °, the first attacker 22a does not rotate.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 12, when the rotation angle signal is less than 90 °, the second attacker 23a of the second winning device 23 displays the rotation angle of the handle 17 as D in [°] units. -2 × D / 15 + 12 [° / sec] Rotate in the opening direction, and when the rotation angle signal exceeds 90 °, for example, 2 × D / 15-12 [° / sec] in the closing direction To do. When the rotation angle signal is 90 °, the second attacker 23a does not rotate.

  As described above, since the attackers 22a and 23a are opened and closed at a speed proportional to the rotation angle from the reference angle (90 °) of the handle 17, the operation of the handle 17 becomes more irregular, and the game becomes more complicated and interesting. . The configuration is the same as that of the pachinko machine 11 in the first embodiment except for the relationship between the rotation angle of the handle 17 and the opening / closing speeds of the attackers 22a and 23a of the winning devices 22 and 23. Illustration and detailed description are omitted. The operation of the pachinko machine 11 configured as described above is also the same as that of the pachinko machine 11 in the first embodiment, and detailed description thereof is omitted.

  In each of the embodiments described above, the first winning device 22 is provided on the left side of the center accessory 18 and the second winning device 23 is provided on the right side of the center accessory 18, but the strength is less than a predetermined reference value. The game ball 16 that has been launched can be awarded at the grand prize opening of the first prize winning device 22, and the game ball 16 that has been launched with a strength greater than a predetermined reference value is awarded at the big prize opening of the second prize winning device 23. The arrangement of the winning devices 22 and 23 is not limited as long as it is possible. In a pachinko machine 41 (see FIG. 13) according to a fourth embodiment to be described next, the winning devices 22 and 23 are arranged so as to be lined up and down.

  A pachinko machine 41 according to the fourth embodiment shown in FIG. 13 has a starter chuck 20 disposed on the right side of the center accessory 18. A first winning device 22 is provided below the center accessory 18, and a second winning device 23 is provided below the first winning device 22.

  On the game board 13, a plurality of nails 42 are planted on the upper right side of the first winning device 22 so as to surround the first winning device 22. The plurality of nails 42 prevent the game ball 16 that has flowed down the right side of the center accessory 18 from winning a big winning opening (not shown) of the first winning device 22. In the game board 13, a plurality of nails (first structure) 43 are implanted on the left side of the first winning device 22. The plurality of nails 43 guide the game ball 16 flowing down the left side of the center accessory 18 to the first winning device 22. In other words, the game ball 16 that has flowed down the right side of the center bonus 18 cannot win the big prize opening of the first prize winning device 22, and only the game ball 16 that has flowed down the left side of the center bonus 18 can be won.

  Further, a plurality of nails 44 are planted on the game board 13 on the upper left side of the second winning device 23 so as to surround the second winning device 23. The plurality of nails 44 prevent the game ball 16 flowing down the left side of the center accessory 18 from winning a big winning opening (not shown) of the second winning device 23. In the game board 13, a plurality of nails (second structures) 45 are implanted on the right side of the second winning device 23. The plurality of nails 45 guide the game ball 16 that has flowed down the right side of the center accessory 18 to the second winning device 23. In other words, the game ball 16 that has flowed down the left side of the center bonus 18 cannot win the big prize opening of the second prize winning device 23, and only the game ball 16 that has flowed down the right side of the center bonus 18 can be won.

  The pachinko machine 11 in the first embodiment is the same in configuration as the pachinko machine 11 in the first embodiment except for the arrangement of the starting chucker 20, the winning devices 22, 23, and the positions where the nails 42 to 45 are planted. The illustration and detailed description are omitted.

  Next, the operation of the pachinko machine 41 configured as described above will be described with reference to FIG. When the game ball 16 wins the starting chucker 20 and the winning lottery is determined to be winning, the winning mode is shifted to the winning mode. In each round of the winning mode, first, the attackers 22a and 23a of the winning devices 22 and 23 are opened by 90 ° which is the maximum opening angle. Then, the player operates the handle 17 to fire the game ball 16 in the game area 13 a of the game board 13, and causes the game ball 16 to win in the big winning opening of the winning devices 22 and 23.

  When the rotation angle of the operated handle 17 is less than 90 ° and the game ball 16 is fired at such a strength that it flows down to the left side of the center accessory 18, the game ball 16 flowing down is guided to the plurality of nails 43. If the opening angle is not 0 °, the first attacker 22a of the first winning device 22 is rotated in the closing direction. Further, the second attacker 23a of the second winning device 23 in which the game balls 16 flowing down are prevented from winning by the plurality of nails 44 is rotated in the opening direction unless the opening angle is 90 °.

  On the other hand, when the rotation angle of the operated handle 17 exceeds 90 ° and the game ball 16 is fired at such a strength that it flows down to the right side of the center accessory 18, the game ball 16 flowing down by the plurality of nails 42. If the opening angle is not 90 °, the first attacker 22a of the first winning device 22 that is prevented from winning will rotate in the opening direction. Further, the second attacker 23a of the second winning device 23 in which the game ball 16 flowing down is guided to the plurality of nails 45 rotates in the closing direction unless the opening angle is 0 °.

  In addition, when the rotation angle of the operated handle 17 is 90 ° and the game ball 16 is fired at a strength that flows down the left and right centers of the game board, the first and second winning devices 22 and 23 Neither of the attackers 22a and 23a rotates, and the opening angle of the attackers 22a and 23a is maintained.

  The hit mode ends when all 16 rounds are completed.

  In this way, the winning device 23 in which the attacker 22a (or 23a) of the winning device 22 (or 23) to which the launched game ball 16 is guided rotates in the closing direction and the launched game ball 16 is prevented from winning. Since the attacker 23a (or 22a) of (or 22) rotates in the opening direction, the game ball 16 cannot be awarded to the big winning opening of the winning device 22 (or 23) with the rotation angle of the handle 17 fixed. . In order to win a game ball in the big winning opening of the winning devices 22 and 23, the rotation angle of the handle 17 is changed, and the rotation angles of the attackers 22a and 23a of the winning devices 22 and 23 and the game ball 16 are fired. It is required to adjust the relationship with strength. That is, the operation of the handle 17 becomes irregular, and the game becomes complicated and interesting.

  In the pachinko machine 41 of the fourth embodiment, the strength at which the game ball 16 is fired so as to flow down the left and right centers of the game board 13 is used as a reference value, and the game ball 16 is fired at a strength exceeding the reference value. The winning devices 22 and 23 are controlled separately for the case where the game ball 16 is fired with a strength less than the reference value, but the reference value for launching the game ball 16 is not limited to this, and each winning game is not limited to this. It is only necessary that the firing strength at which the game ball 16 is guided to the devices 22 and 23 with a half probability is a reference value. That is, the present invention can also be applied when the board surface configuration is not symmetrical (for example, when the game area is biased to the left side of the game board).
