のパチンコ球が払い出されるようにしている。In a card-type pachinko gaming machine generally called a CR machine, a card-type ball lending machine is integrally provided next to the gaming machine body, and a predetermined prepaid card is inserted to set a ball lending request switch. When operated, the ball payout device of the game machine main body operates to pay out a predetermined number of pachinko balls directly to the hit ball supply tray. That is, in addition to the original function of paying out pachinko balls as prize balls in response to a prize ball detection signal, the ball payout device provided in the gaming machine body, in addition to the ball lending transmitted from the card type ball lending machine In response to the request signal, the pachinko ball can be paid out as a rental ball. When a winning ball detection signal is received, the ball payout control circuit activates the ball payout device and outputs a pulse signal, for example, 15 times from the ball counting sensor. Upon receiving the ball dispensing device, the ball dispensing device is stopped and 15 pachinko balls are dispensed, and when there is a ball lending request signal, the ball dispensing control circuit activates the ball dispensing device and, for example, 25 times from the ball counting sensor. Upon receiving the pulse signal, the ball dispensing device is stopped so that 25 pachinko balls are dispensed.

確に測定できないという問題があった。In the conventional card-type pachinko gaming machine, the prize balls and the lending balls are counted by a pulse signal from the same ball counting sensor, so that the following problems arise. That is, in general, pachinko machines are inspected at the time of shipment from the factory or during use, etc., to automatically launch hit balls for a long time and count the number of prize balls, etc. When the ball is lost during the course of operation, the ball lending request switch is operated and the ball is supplied to the ball supply tray appropriately, but as described above, the same ball counting sensor is used for both the prize ball and the lending ball as described above. If the pachinko ball is configured to be counted by the obtained pulse signal, even if the pulse signal obtained from the ball counting sensor is counted by an instrument such as a digital counter, the counted value is determined by the winning and the ball. There is a problem that the characteristics of the pachinko gaming machine cannot be measured accurately because there is a signal from the lending request signal and the two cannot be distinguished.

A second object of the present invention is to prevent abnormal payout of pachinko balls due to wrongdoing. A third object of the present invention is to enable a prize ball and a lending ball to be separately counted at the time of inspection.
Furthermore, a fourth object of the present invention is to prevent an excessive payout of pachinko balls which tends to occur when the payout rotor is rotated at a high speed so as to respond to a high speed of payout. .
