As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 , the effect member 8 is provided below the bulging region portion 4 in the extension portion 3 and in a region between the extended bulging portion 4 a and the display device window portion 2. By operation of a solenoid as an electrical drive source (not shown) provided on the back surface side, it can move between a state where it appears and disappears on the front surface of the display device window 2 and a state where it does not appear and disappear as shown.

演出部材８が出没する契機としては、確定表示された各特別図柄が、予め定められた表示態様となった場合、予め定められた表示態様となる可能性が向上した状態となった場合、または特賞状態期間中の場合等が挙げられる。これにより、現在の遊技状況を把握可能になるとともに、延長部３を効果的に利用することで利便性に富む。   As an opportunity for the production member 8 to appear and appear, when each special symbol that has been confirmed and displayed is in a predetermined display mode, the possibility of becoming a predetermined display mode is improved, or For example, during the special prize period. Thereby, while being able to grasp | ascertain the present game situation, it is rich in convenience by using the extension part 3 effectively.

装飾部材１の斜視図を示す図３に基づいて、装飾部材１により誘導される遊技球の２つの流下態様を説明する。なお、遊技球Ａ１〜Ａ５は、図示した矢印に従って移動するものとする。   Based on FIG. 3 which shows the perspective view of the decoration member 1, two flowing-down modes of the game ball guided by the decoration member 1 will be described. The game balls A1 to A5 move according to the illustrated arrows.

まず、発射装置から発射された遊技球Ａ１が、遊技球Ａ２となる流下態様の場合、つまり遊技領域１３の左側へ誘導される場合について説明する。   First, the case where the game ball A1 launched from the launching device is in the flow-down mode to become the game ball A2, that is, the case where it is guided to the left side of the game area 13 will be described.

発射口１３ａから遊技領域１３内に打ち込まれた遊技球Ａ１は、遊技領域１３に配置された図示しない遊技釘によって転動し、膨出領域部４の上面である案内部４１に当接することにより、案内部４１に沿って、装飾部材１の左方向へと緩速で案内される。このあと、遊技球は、膨出領域部４の左端から落下し、左側遊技領域部１３１に配置された遊技釘に当接しながら、遊技領域１３の下方へ流下する。   The game ball A1 driven into the game area 13 from the launch port 13a rolls by a game nail (not shown) arranged in the game area 13 and comes into contact with the guide part 41 which is the upper surface of the bulge area part 4 Then, along the guide portion 41, the decorative member 1 is guided to the left direction at a slow speed. Thereafter, the game ball falls from the left end of the bulging area portion 4 and flows down below the game area 13 while abutting against the game nails arranged in the left game area section 131.

案内部４１は、表示装置窓部２の上方を被っているため、比較的横幅が大きくなっている。これにより、発射装置から発射された遊技球の到達する部位が、特別表示装置１４上であれば、どの部位であっても、案内部４１により左側遊技領域部１３１への誘導が可能となり、発射位置が多少ずれても、遊技球の流下方向を安定させることができる。   Since the guide part 41 has covered the upper part of the display apparatus window part 2, its width is comparatively large. As a result, any part of the game ball launched from the launching device on the special display device 14 can be guided to the left game area 131 by the guide unit 41 regardless of the part. Even if the position is slightly deviated, the flow direction of the game ball can be stabilized.

これに対し、従来技術である図４の遊技用部材５２の場合、表示装置５１上であっても、その右側に遊技球が当接すると、遊技球を装飾部材５２の左方向へ誘導させることはできない。   On the other hand, in the case of the gaming member 52 of FIG. 4 which is the prior art, when the gaming ball comes into contact with the right side of the display device 51, the gaming ball is guided to the left of the decorative member 52. I can't.

つぎに、発射装置から発射された遊技球Ａ１が、遊技球Ａ３、遊技球Ａ４、遊技球Ａ５と流下する流下態様となる場合、すなわち、延長部３の方向（右方向）へ誘導される場合について説明する。   Next, when the game ball A1 launched from the launching device is in a flow-down mode in which it flows down with the game ball A3, the game ball A4, and the game ball A5, that is, when the game ball A1 is guided in the direction of the extension 3 (right direction). Will be described.

遊技球Ａ１は、遊技領域１３に配置された図示しない遊技釘によって転動し、膨出領域部４の上面に当接することにより、延長部３側、すなわち案内部４１よりも右側の膨出領域部４に沿って、段差部４２、４３を通過し、遊技球Ａ３、遊技球Ａ４の順で、装飾部材１の右方向へ案内され、表示灯窓部６の前面を通って平面領域部５を通過する。 The game ball A <b> 1 rolls by a game nail (not shown) arranged in the game area 13 and comes into contact with the upper surface of the bulge area portion 4, so that the bulge area on the extension part 3 side, that is, on the right side of the guide part 41. Along the portion 4, the step portion 42, 43 is passed, and the game ball A 3 and the game ball A 4 are guided in the right direction of the decorative member 1 in this order, through the front surface of the indicator lamp window portion 6, and the planar region portion 5. Pass through.

また、遊技球Ａ５の位置では、遊技球が表示灯カバー部７の上面に当接している。このとき、表示灯カバー部(7)の上面は、遊技盤中央に向かって下り傾斜しているため、遊技球は遊技盤の中央方向(特別図柄始動口１５方向)へと流下する。   Further, at the position of the game ball A5, the game ball is in contact with the upper surface of the indicator lamp cover portion 7. At this time, since the upper surface of the indicator lamp cover (7) is inclined downward toward the center of the game board, the game ball flows down toward the center of the game board (in the direction of the special symbol start port 15).

以上のように本実施形態によれば、遊技者に特別図柄表示装置１４だけを注目させるのではなく、装飾部材１にも強い印象を与えるとともに、延長部３側では、従来の遊技釘とは異なる遊技球の流下態様を味わうことができることにより、遊技の興趣性が向上する。   As described above, according to the present embodiment, not only the special symbol display device 14 is noticed by the player, but also a strong impression is given to the decorative member 1, and on the extension part 3 side, the conventional game nail is By being able to taste the flow-down mode of different game balls, the fun of the game is improved.

加えて、延長部３側では、遊技球が装飾部材１の左方向へ誘導された場合の流下態様とは異なる遊技球の流下態様を味わうことができ、遊技の興趣性が向上する。   In addition, on the extension part 3 side, it is possible to taste the flow-down mode of the game ball different from the flow-down mode when the game ball is guided to the left of the decorative member 1, and the interest of the game is improved.

また、延長部３側の膨出領域部４は、段差部４２、４３により階段状に形成されているため、誘導される遊技球の移動速度は低減させられ、遊技球の滞留時間を長くすることが可能になるとともに、下方に位置する特別図柄始動口１５等に安定して入球しやすくなる。   In addition, since the bulging area portion 4 on the extension portion 3 side is formed in a stepped shape by the step portions 42 and 43, the moving speed of the guided game ball is reduced and the residence time of the game ball is lengthened. This makes it easier to stably enter the special symbol starting port 15 or the like located below.

さらに、案内部４１は、膨出領域部４の延長膨出部４ａと連続して形成されているため、２つの異なる遊技球の流下態様を、１つの部材で実現可能であり、部品点数の削減して、遊技球の多様な流下形態を実現することができる。   Furthermore, since the guide portion 41 is formed continuously with the extended bulge portion 4a of the bulge region portion 4, two different game ball flow modes can be realized with a single member. It is possible to reduce and realize various flowing down forms of the game ball.

以上、本発明の一実施形態について説明したが、本発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲内で、上記実施形態に種々の変形や変更を施すことが可能である。例えば、延長部３を左側に設けたり、両側に設けたりすること、及び段差部の数を変更すること、演出部材８の動作をモータによる回転等の動作にすること等が挙げられる。   As mentioned above, although one Embodiment of this invention was described, it is possible to give a various deformation | transformation and change to the said embodiment within the range which does not deviate from the summary of this invention. For example, the extension part 3 is provided on the left side or on both sides, the number of the step parts is changed, the operation of the effect member 8 is changed to an operation such as rotation by a motor, and the like.

また、複数列の図柄が予め定められた表示態様となった場合に、大入賞口１９が開放する遊技機として説明したが、本発明は、図柄が予め定められた特定表示結果となったことにより、所定の入賞口が開放して（遊技者にとって有利な遊技状態）、開放期間中の所定の入賞口に遊技球が入賞した場合に、特定の入賞装置が開放する契機となる遊技機等に対しても、適用可能である。   In addition, although it has been described as a gaming machine in which the big prize opening 19 is opened when a plurality of columns of symbols are in a predetermined display mode, the present invention has a specific display result in which the symbols are predetermined. A gaming machine that triggers opening of a specific winning device when a predetermined winning opening is opened (a gaming state advantageous to the player) and a game ball is won at a predetermined winning opening during the opening period. Is also applicable.
