JP 2005-34232 A

ここで、前記遊技盤に配設されたセンター役物に設けられた演出可動体等の不良による部品交換や修理に際しては、前記裏板部材を取外す必要がある。また前記部品交換や修理を、遊技盤を中枠に組付けた状態で行ないたいと云う要請から、前記機構セット盤に開設した遊技盤裏面の保守用の窓口より裏板部材を小さく設定し、該裏板部材を取外して保守用の窓口から取出し得るよう構成することで、遊技盤を中枠に組付けた状態での部品交換や修理を可能としている。 Here, when replacing or repairing a part due to a defect such as an effect movable body provided in a center accessory disposed on the game board, it is necessary to remove the back plate member. In addition, from the request to perform the parts replacement and repair in a state where the game board is assembled in the middle frame, the back plate member is set smaller than the maintenance window on the back of the game board opened in the mechanism set board, By constructing such that the back plate member can be removed and taken out from the maintenance window, parts can be replaced or repaired with the game board mounted on the middle frame.

ところで、特許文献１に開示されているように、複数の入賞口を正面視において階段状(平面階段状)に設けた入賞装置では、各入賞口が上下・左右に離間して連なって形成されるため、入賞装置自体が大型化する。これに対して裏板部材は、前述したように大きさが保守用の窓口によって規制されているため、入賞装置を遊技盤に取付けた状態で、裏板部材から該入賞装置における一部の入賞口が外側にはみ出してしまうことがある。具体的には、例えば上・中・下の３つの入賞口を備えた３連入賞装置の場合、上部入賞口が裏板部材からはみ出してしまうが、この上部入賞口に連通する球案内路を寸法が規制されている裏板部材に形成できない問題がある。すなわち、裏板部材からはみ出した上部入賞口に対しては、別の樋部材を設ける必要がある。また、複数の球案内路で案内された各入賞球をまとめて排出する集合路を、特許文献１のように裏板部材に設けると、その分だけ裏板部材が大きくなってしまい、窓口より裏板部材を小さくする要請に応えることができなくなるおそれがある。 By the way, as disclosed in Patent Document 1, in a winning device in which a plurality of winning openings are provided in a staircase shape (planar step shape) in a front view, the winning openings are formed to be separated from each other vertically and horizontally. Therefore, the winning device itself is increased in size. On the other hand, since the size of the back plate member is regulated by the maintenance window as described above, a part of the winnings in the winning device from the back plate member with the winning device attached to the game board. The mouth may protrude outward. Specifically, for example, in the case of a triple winning device having three upper, middle, and lower winning ports, the upper winning port protrudes from the back plate member, but the ball guide path that communicates with the upper winning port There is a problem that it cannot be formed on a back plate member whose dimensions are regulated. That is, it is necessary to provide another scissors member for the upper prize opening protruding from the back plate member. In addition, when a collecting path that collects and discharges each winning ball guided by a plurality of ball guiding paths is provided in the back plate member as in Patent Document 1, the back plate member becomes larger by that amount, and from the window There is a risk that the request to reduce the size of the back plate member cannot be met.

更に、複数の入賞口を備える入賞装置では、各入賞口に対応して球検出スイッチが配設されているため、入賞装置を遊技盤の取付孔に嵌挿する際に、これら複数の球検出スイッチに接続する配線が邪魔になって、作業効率が低下する問題も指摘される。 Furthermore, in a winning device having a plurality of winning holes, a ball detection switch is provided corresponding to each winning port, so when the winning device is inserted into the mounting hole of the game board, the plurality of balls are detected. It is also pointed out that the wiring connected to the switch gets in the way and the work efficiency decreases.

すなわち、本発明は、前述した従来の技術に内在している前記課題に鑑み、これを好適に解決するべく提案されたものであって、複数の入賞口からの全ての入賞球を別部材を用いることなく処理し得ると共に、取付けの作業効率を良好とし得る入賞装置を備えた遊技機を提供することを目的とする。 That is, the present invention has been proposed to solve this problem in view of the above-mentioned problems inherent in the prior art described above, and all the winning balls from a plurality of winning holes are separated from each other. It is an object of the present invention to provide a gaming machine equipped with a winning device that can be processed without being used and can improve the work efficiency of the attachment.

パチンコ機１０の遊技に際し、前記遊技領域１７ａに打出されたパチンコ球は、遊技盤１７に立設された多数の遊技クギや風車等に接触して落下方向を変更しながら流下し、３連入賞装置２８における上、中、下の入賞口２７Ａ,２７Ｂ,２７Ｃに入賞する。上入賞口２７Ａに入賞した入賞球は、上球経路部３７Ａにより裏側に案内され、前記球樋４４の共通球通路６５と案内部４８とにより案内されて前記球出口６５ａから下方に通出する。また、中入賞口２７Ｂまたは下入賞口２７Ｃに入賞した入賞球についても、中球経路部３７Ｂまたは下球経路部３７Ｃにより裏側に案内され、球樋４４の共通球通路６５と案内部４８とにより案内されて前記球出口６５ａから下方に通出する。 In the game of the pachinko machine 10, the pachinko balls launched into the game area 17a flow down while changing the falling direction by coming into contact with a number of game nails and windmills standing on the game board 17, and the three consecutive prizes The upper, middle, and lower winning ports 27A, 27B, and 27C in the device 28 are won. The winning ball that has won the top winning opening 27A is guided to the back side by the upper ball path portion 37A, guided by the common ball passage 65 and the guide portion 48 of the ball cage 44, and passes downward from the ball outlet 65a. . In addition, the winning ball that has won the middle prize opening 27B or the lower prize opening 27C is also guided to the back side by the middle ball path part 37B or the lower ball path part 37C, and is formed by the common ball path 65 and the guide part 48 of the ball cage 44. Guided and passes downward from the ball outlet 65a.

このように実施例の３連入賞装置２８では、全ての球経路部３７Ａ,３７Ｂ,３７Ｃから通出する入賞球を下方に案内するための球樋４４を装置本体３５に配設したから、前記裏板部材２９には３連入賞装置２８のための球案内路や集合路等を形成する必要はなく、該入賞装置２８自体で全ての入賞球を処理でき、かつ構成を簡略化し得ると共に大型化を抑制することができる。また３連入賞装置２８は、前記窓口１６ａの開口寸法で大きさが規制される裏板部材２９とは関係なく、左右および上下寸法の大きなものを採用することができ、設計の自由度が高まる。しかも、球樋４４からは、１箇所の球出口６５ａから入賞球を放出するよう構成してあるから、該入賞球を受容するための後処理に関する構成を簡略化し得る利点もある。 In this way, in the triple winning device 28 of the embodiment, since the ball cage 44 for guiding the winning balls passing out from all the ball path portions 37A, 37B, 37C downward is arranged in the device main body 35, The back plate member 29 does not need to be formed with a ball guide path or a collective path for the triple winning device 28, and the winning device 28 itself can process all winning balls, and the configuration can be simplified and large-sized. Can be suppressed. In addition, the triple winning device 28 can adopt a large left-right and vertical size regardless of the back plate member 29 whose size is regulated by the opening size of the window 16a, and the degree of freedom in design is increased. . Moreover, since the ball ball 44 is configured to discharge the winning ball from one ball outlet 65a, there is also an advantage that the configuration related to the post-processing for receiving the winning ball can be simplified.

なお、前記装置本体３５の裏側に配設した球樋４４は、各球検出スイッチ４２Ａ,４２Ｂ,４２Ｃの後側に重ならないよう位置決めされているから、該球検出スイッチ４２Ａ,４２Ｂ,４２Ｃの故障等に伴う交換に際しては、球樋４４を装置本体３５から取外す必要はなく、作業が容易となる。 Since the bulb 44 disposed on the back side of the apparatus main body 35 is positioned so as not to overlap the rear side of each of the ball detection switches 42A, 42B, 42C, a failure of the ball detection switches 42A, 42B, 42C. When exchanging with the above, it is not necessary to remove the bulb 44 from the apparatus main body 35, and the work becomes easy.

また、前記裏板部材２９は、機構セット盤１６の窓口１６ａの開口寸法より小さく設定されているから、図柄表示装置２２に設けられた演出可動体等の不良による部品交換や修理に際しては、遊技盤１７を中枠１２に組付けたまま、該遊技盤１７から裏板部材２９を取外して窓口１６ａから取出すことで対応し得る。 Further, since the back plate member 29 is set smaller than the opening size of the window 16a of the mechanism set board 16, when the parts are replaced or repaired due to a defect in the effect movable body provided in the symbol display device 22, This can be dealt with by removing the back plate member 29 from the game board 17 and removing it from the window 16a while the board 17 is attached to the middle frame 12.
