Description

この発明は、板部材の遊技領域に設けられた入賞口に入賞した遊技球を、該板部材の裏側に配設された裏ユニットに形成した球通路を介して案内すると共に、該球通路に配設した球検出手段で遊技球の通過を検出するよう構成した遊技機に関するものである。   The present invention guides a game ball won in a prize opening provided in a game area of a plate member through a ball passage formed in a back unit disposed on the back side of the plate member, and enters the ball passage. The present invention relates to a gaming machine configured to detect the passage of a game ball by a disposed ball detection means.

代表的な遊技機であるパチンコ機は、機内にセットされる遊技盤の盤面に画成した遊技領域に装飾部材が配設され、該装飾部材に形成した開口部に、機裏側に配設した液晶式やドラム式等の図柄表示装置の表示部を臨ませると共に、該図柄表示装置による図柄変動の開始条件を付与する始動入賞装置が遊技領域に配設されている。そして、始動入賞装置に設けられた始動入賞口へのパチンコ球の入賞に基づいて、前記図柄表示装置で図柄組み合わせゲームやリーチ演出が行なわれ、表示部に所定の図柄が停止表示されたときに、大当り遊技状態を発生させて、遊技領域に配設されている特別入賞装置の特別入賞口を開放することで、遊技者に多くの賞球を獲得するチャンスを与えるようになっている。   A pachinko machine, which is a typical gaming machine, has a decorative member arranged in a game area defined on a board surface of a gaming board set in the machine, and is arranged on the back side of the machine in an opening formed in the decorative member. A start winning device is provided in the game area so that the display unit of a liquid crystal type or drum type symbol display device is exposed, and a start condition for symbol variation by the symbol display device is given. Then, based on the winning of the pachinko ball in the starting winning opening provided in the starting winning device, when the symbol combination game or reach production is performed on the symbol display device, and a predetermined symbol is stopped and displayed on the display unit By generating a big hit gaming state and opening the special winning opening of the special winning device arranged in the gaming area, the player is given a chance to win many prize balls.

前記遊技盤は、前側に遊技領域が画成されると共に始動入賞装置や特別入賞装置が配設される木製の合板や透明なアクリル板等からなる板部材の裏側に、前記始動入賞口や特別入賞口に入賞したパチンコ球を集合して機外に排出する球通路が形成された裏ユニットが配設されて構成される。また板部材には、前記始動入賞口や特別入賞口とは別に、遊技領域を流下するパチンコ球の入賞が可能な複数の普通入賞口が設けられ、各普通入賞口に入賞したパチンコ球は、前記裏ユニットに形成された前記球通路で集合されて機外に排出されるようになっている(例えば、特許文献１参照)。前記球通路には、該球通路を流下するパチンコ球、すなわち普通入賞口に入賞したパチンコ球を検出する球検出手段が配設され、該球検出手段の検出信号に基づいて所定数の賞球を払い出すよう構成されている。   The game board has a game area defined on the front side and a start prize opening and a special prize board on the back side of a plate member made of a wooden plywood or a transparent acrylic board on which a start prize device or a special prize device is arranged. A back unit is formed in which a ball passage is formed in which a pachinko ball that has won a prize is gathered and discharged outside the machine. In addition to the start prize opening and special prize opening, the plate member is provided with a plurality of normal prize winning holes that can win pachinko balls flowing down the game area. The balls are gathered in the ball passage formed in the back unit and discharged outside the apparatus (for example, see Patent Document 1). The ball passage is provided with a ball detecting means for detecting a pachinko ball flowing down the ball passage, that is, a pachinko ball won in the normal winning opening, and a predetermined number of prize balls are determined based on a detection signal of the ball detecting means. Is configured to pay out.

特開２００１−１４９５９７号公報Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-149597

前記パチンコ機では、前記始動入賞口や特別入賞口および普通入賞口等の各入賞口に入賞したパチンコ球を検出する球検出手段による検出結果に基づいて賞球の払い出し個数が決定されるため、該球検出手段による正確なパチンコ球の検出が求められている。しかしながら、同じ入賞口に連続して複数のパチンコ球が入賞した場合、球検出手段に複数のパチンコ球が連なった状態で通過することがあり、このときには１個のパチンコ球が通過したと誤検出するおそれがあった。   In the pachinko machine, since the number of prize balls to be paid out is determined based on the detection result by the ball detecting means for detecting the pachinko ball won in each winning opening such as the start winning opening, the special winning opening and the normal winning opening, There is a demand for accurate pachinko sphere detection by the sphere detection means. However, when a plurality of pachinko balls win consecutively in the same winning opening, it may pass in a state where a plurality of pachinko balls are connected to the ball detecting means. At this time, it is erroneously detected that one pachinko ball has passed. There was a risk.

また、前記パチンコ機では、複数の普通入賞口に入賞したパチンコ球を集合する前記球通路の最下流側に球検出手段を配設し、複数の普通入賞口に対するパチンコ球の入賞を１つの球検出手段で検出する構成を採用することがある。この場合において、球検出手段の配設位置から遠い位置の普通入賞口に入賞したパチンコ球ほど、球検出手段に至るまでの落下距離が長くなるために球検出手段を通過する際の速度が速くなり、該普通入賞口に複数のパチンコ球が連続して入賞した場合は、前述した誤検出が発生する確率が高くなる難点が指摘される。   Further, in the pachinko machine, a ball detecting means is disposed on the most downstream side of the ball passage for collecting the pachinko balls that have won the plurality of normal winning ports, and the single pachinko ball is awarded to the plurality of normal winning ports. A configuration for detecting by the detecting means may be employed. In this case, the pachinko ball that has won the normal prize opening at a position far from the position where the ball detecting means is disposed has a longer drop distance to the ball detecting means, and thus the speed when passing through the ball detecting means is faster. Thus, when a plurality of pachinko balls are continuously won in the normal winning opening, it is pointed out that the probability that the above-described erroneous detection occurs becomes high.

すなわち本発明は、従来の技術に係る遊技機に内在する前記課題に鑑み、これを好適に解決するべく提案されたものであって、球検出手段の誤検出を防止し得る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 the above-mentioned problems inherent in the gaming machine according to the prior art, and provides a gaming machine that can prevent erroneous detection of the ball detecting means. For the purpose.

前記課題を克服し、所期の目的を達成するため、本願の請求項１に係る発明は、
前側に遊技領域(11a)が画成される板部材(11)と、該板部材(11)の裏側に取付けられる裏ユニット(15)からなる遊技盤(10)を有し、前記板部材(11)には遊技領域(11a)を流下する遊技球(B)が入賞可能な入賞口(21a,21b,22a,22b)が設けられると共に、入賞口(21a,21b,22a,22b)に入賞した遊技球(B)を案内する球通路(25,26)が前記裏ユニット(15)に形成されている遊技機において、
遊技球(B)の通過を許容する通過孔(30b,38b)を有し、該通過孔(30b,38b)を前記球通路(25,26)に合わせて配設されて、該通過孔(30b,38b)を通過する遊技球(B)を検出する球検出手段(30,38)と、
前記球検出手段(30,38)より上流の球通路(25,26)の後壁(25b,39a)に設けられ、球検出手段(30,38)の通過孔(30b,38b)の内縁より内方に突出する突起(32,44)とを備え、
前記球通路(25,26)は、前記球検出手段(30,38)が配設されて上下方向に延在する縦通路(33)と、入賞口(22a)に上流端で連通すると共に下流端が縦通路(33)における前記突起(44)の側方で連通接続するよう左側または右側に向けて下方傾斜する傾斜通路(36,37)とを備え、該傾斜通路(36,37)の断面積は、上流側より下流側が小さくなるよう設定されることを特徴とする。 In order to overcome the above-mentioned problems and achieve the intended purpose, the invention according to claim 1 of the present application provides:
It has a game board (10) comprising a plate member (11) in which a game area (11a) is defined on the front side and a back unit (15) attached to the back side of the plate member (11). 11) is provided with a winning opening (21a, 21b, 22a, 22b) where the gaming ball (B) flowing down the gaming area (11a) can win, and winning in the winning opening (21a, 21b, 22a, 22b) In the gaming machine in which a ball path (25, 26) for guiding the played game ball (B) is formed in the back unit (15),
It has a passage hole (30b, 38b) that allows the game ball (B) to pass through, and the passage hole (30b, 38b) is disposed in alignment with the ball passage (25, 26). 30b, 38b) ball detecting means (30, 38) for detecting a game ball (B) passing through,
Provided on the rear wall (25b, 39a) of the spherical passage (25, 26) upstream from the spherical detection means (30, 38), from the inner edge of the passage hole (30b, 38b) of the spherical detection means (30, 38) Protrusions (32, 44) projecting inward,
The ball passageway (25, 26) is provided with the ball detection means (30, 38) and communicates at the upstream end with the longitudinal passageway (33) extending in the vertical direction and the winning opening (22a) and downstream. An inclined passage (36, 37) inclined downward toward the left side or the right side so that the end communicates with the side of the projection (44) in the longitudinal passage (33), and the inclined passage (36, 37) The cross-sectional area is set so that the downstream side is smaller than the upstream side .

請求項１の発明によれば、球検出手段の通過孔に入る前の遊技球が球通路に設けた突起に当たるよう構成したから、遊技球が連なっている場合には、前に突起を越えた遊技球に対して後の遊技球が突起に当たることで僅かな時間ではあるが堰き止められた状態となるから、前後の遊技球の間に隙間が生じ易く、球検出手段の通過孔を複数の遊技球が連なった状態で通過するのを回避して、誤検出を防止し得る。また、遊技球が突起に当たることで勢いが弱められるから、遊技球が通過孔を通過する際の速度を落として誤検出を確実に防止し得る。遊技球が傾斜通路における断面積の大きい部位から小さい部位に移動する際に、遊技球が該通路の壁に接触する機会が多くなることで勢いを弱めることができ、遊技球が球検出手段の通過孔を通過する際の速度を落として誤検出の発生を防止し得る。 According to the first aspect of the present invention, since the game ball before entering the passage hole of the ball detecting means hits the projection provided in the ball passage, when the game ball is continuous, the projection has been crossed before Since a later game ball hits the protrusion with respect to the game ball, it is in a state where it is blocked for a short time, so a gap is easily generated between the front and rear game balls, and a plurality of passage holes of the ball detection means are formed. It is possible to prevent erroneous detection by avoiding passing game balls in a continuous state. Further, since the momentum is weakened when the game ball hits the protrusion, the speed at which the game ball passes through the passage hole can be reduced to reliably prevent erroneous detection. When a game ball moves from a large cross-sectional area in an inclined passage to a small portion, the moment of contact of the game ball with the wall of the passage can be reduced, and the game ball can be It is possible to prevent the occurrence of false detection by reducing the speed when passing through the passage hole.

The rear unit box 24 is positioned and fixed from the front side. The passage forming member 39 includes a first right vertical passage 33 and a front opening that are opened forward by a rear wall 39a and a plurality of wall portions (upper wall, lower wall, etc.) 39b and 39c protruding forward from the rear wall 39a. And a second right inclined passage 37 that opens to the right. The rear wall 39a is provided with a plurality of flange portions 42 extending outward from the wall portion, and the flange portion 42 is formed with positioning holes 42a and through holes 42b penetrating in the front-rear direction. Then, the passage forming member 39 is inserted into each of the through holes 42b from the front side while the corresponding positioning holes 42a are inserted into the plurality of positioning pins 40 provided in the back unit box 24 from the front side. The passage forming member 39 is positioned and fixed to the back unit box 24 by screwing the screws 41 into the corresponding screw holes of the back unit box 24. With the passage forming member 39 positioned and fixed to the back unit box 24, the upper surface (the bottom surface of the second right inclined passage 37) of the lower wall 39c defining the second right inclined passage 37 is shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 6, it is set so as to be lower than the bottom surface of the downstream end in the sphere introduction path 36, and a step is formed at the communication portion between the sphere introduction path 36 and the second right inclined passage 37.

前記通路形成部材３９の第１右縦通路３３における下右普通入賞口２２ｂとの連通部には、図７に示す如く、該第１右縦通路３３を画成する上壁３９ｂおよび後壁３９ａに、下側に向かうにつれて後側に弧状に凹む右導入案内部４３が形成され、下右普通入賞口２２ｂに入賞したパチンコ球Ｂを、該右導入案内部４３によって下側に向けて案内するよう構成される。また、第１右縦通路３３を画成する後壁３９ａには、該右導入案内部４３と前記右普通入賞センサ３８の取着部３３ｂとの間の位置に、後述する突壁４６の前面から通路内方に突出する右突起(突起)４４が形成されている。この右突起４４は、図７に示す如く、取着部３３ｂに取付けられた右普通入賞センサ３８における通過孔３８ｂの内縁より内方に突出するよう設定され、第１右縦通路３３を流下するパチンコ球Ｂは、該右突起４４に当たった後に通過孔３８ｂを通過するよう構成される。なお、右突起４４の前端と、第１右縦通路３３の前壁として機能する前記裏ユニットベース２３の裏面との離間間隔は、パチンコ球Ｂの直径より大きく設定されて該パチンコ球Ｂの通過を許容するよう構成してある。   As shown in FIG. 7, an upper wall 39b and a rear wall 39a that define the first right vertical passage 33 are formed at the communication portion of the passage forming member 39 with the lower right ordinary winning opening 22b in the first right vertical passage 33. In addition, a right introduction guide portion 43 that is recessed in an arc shape on the rear side as it goes downward is formed, and the pachinko ball B that has won a prize in the lower right normal winning opening 22b is guided downward by the right introduction guide portion 43. It is configured as follows. Further, the rear wall 39a defining the first right vertical passage 33 is disposed at a position between the right introduction guide portion 43 and the attachment portion 33b of the right normal winning sensor 38 at the front surface of the protruding wall 46 described later. A right protrusion (protrusion) 44 that protrudes inward from the passage is formed. As shown in FIG. 7, the right protrusion 44 is set to protrude inward from the inner edge of the passage hole 38 b in the right normal winning sensor 38 attached to the attachment portion 33 b and flows down the first right vertical passage 33. The pachinko sphere B is configured to pass through the passage hole 38b after hitting the right protrusion 44. The spacing between the front end of the right projection 44 and the back surface of the back unit base 23 that functions as the front wall of the first right vertical passage 33 is set to be larger than the diameter of the pachinko ball B so that the pachinko ball B passes through. Is configured to allow

前記第２右傾斜通路３７は、図６に示す如く、前記球導入路３６の下流端に連通する上流側の第１傾斜部３７ａと、前記第１右縦通路３３に連通する下流側の第２傾斜部３７ｂとが、パチンコ球Ｂの直径より大きな落差をもって連通接続されて構成される。第１および第２傾斜部３７ａ,３７ｂの底面は、何れも左側(第１右縦通路３３)に向けて下方傾斜するよう形成されて、パチンコ球Ｂの流れが滞ることがないようにしてある。また、第１傾斜部３７ａと第２傾斜部３７ｂとの連通部において、第１傾斜部３７ａにおける底面の下流端と第２傾斜部３７ｂを画成する上壁３９ｂの上流端とはパチンコ球Ｂの直径より大きく離間すると共に、該第２傾斜部３７ｂを画成する上壁３９ｂの上流端には、第１傾斜部３７ａにおける底面の下流端より下方に延出する干渉部４５が突設されている。この干渉部４５の突出寸法は、第１傾斜部３７ａを流下してその底面から離れて落下する途中のパチンコ球Ｂが当たり、かつ干渉部４５の下端と第２傾斜部３７ｂの底面との離間間隔がパチンコ球Ｂの直径より大きくなるよう設定される。すなわち、第１傾斜部３７ａから飛び出したパチンコ球Ｂが干渉部４５に当たることで勢いを弱めると共に、第２傾斜部３７ｂに落下したパチンコ球Ｂが該第２傾斜部３７ｂを流下するのを干渉部４５が阻害しないよう構成してある。   As shown in FIG. 6, the second right inclined passage 37 has an upstream first inclined portion 37 a communicating with the downstream end of the ball introduction path 36 and a downstream first communicating portion communicated with the first right vertical passage 33. The two inclined portions 37b are configured to communicate with each other with a drop larger than the diameter of the pachinko ball B. The bottom surfaces of the first and second inclined portions 37a and 37b are formed so as to incline downward toward the left side (the first right vertical passage 33) so that the flow of the pachinko sphere B does not stagnate. . Further, in the communicating portion between the first inclined portion 37a and the second inclined portion 37b, the downstream end of the bottom surface of the first inclined portion 37a and the upstream end of the upper wall 39b that defines the second inclined portion 37b are pachinko balls B. And an interference portion 45 projecting downward from the downstream end of the bottom surface of the first inclined portion 37a is projected at the upstream end of the upper wall 39b that defines the second inclined portion 37b. ing. The projecting dimension of the interference portion 45 is such that the pachinko ball B which is flowing in the middle of the first inclined portion 37a and falls away from the bottom surface hits it, and the lower end of the interference portion 45 is separated from the bottom surface of the second inclined portion 37b. The interval is set to be larger than the diameter of the pachinko sphere B. That is, the pachinko sphere B jumping out from the first inclined portion 37a is weakened by hitting the interference portion 45, and the pachinko sphere B falling on the second inclined portion 37b is allowed to flow down the second inclined portion 37b. 45 is configured not to inhibit.

前記第２右傾斜通路３７を画成する後壁３９ａの前面(通路内側の面)には、上下方向の略中央で、底面に沿って流下するパチンコ球Ｂの外周における最も後側に臨む部位が接触する位置に、該傾斜通路３７に沿って突壁４６が突設され、該突壁４６の形成位置において第２右傾斜通路３７の前後寸法が小さくなるよう構成される。突壁４６の上流端部には、上流側に向かうにつれて後壁３９ａに近接する傾斜面４６ａが形成され、前記球導入路３６からのパチンコ球Ｂが円滑に通入し得るようになっている。また突壁４６の下流端部は、後壁３９ａにおける前記第１右縦通路３３を画成する部位までに亘って形成され、該第１右縦通路３３に臨む突壁４６の前面に前記右突起４４が突設されている。すなわち、第２右傾斜通路３７における第２傾斜部３７ｂを底面および突壁４６に接触した状態で流下するパチンコ球Ｂは、該第２傾斜部３７ｂから第１右縦通路３３に通入する際に、前記右突起４４に側方から当たるよう構成されている。なお、第１右縦通路３３に形成された前記右導入案内部４３の下端が突壁４６の上側に連設されると共に、その前端位置が同じとなるよう設定される(図７参照)。   The front surface of the rear wall 39a that defines the second right inclined passage 37 (surface on the inner side of the passage) is a portion facing the most rear side on the outer periphery of the pachinko ball B that flows down along the bottom surface at a substantially vertical center. A projecting wall 46 is projected along the inclined passage 37 at a position where the projecting wall 46 comes into contact, and the front-rear dimension of the second right inclined passage 37 is reduced at the position where the projecting wall 46 is formed. An inclined surface 46a that is close to the rear wall 39a is formed at the upstream end of the projecting wall 46 toward the upstream side so that the pachinko ball B from the ball introduction path 36 can smoothly pass therethrough. . Further, the downstream end portion of the protruding wall 46 is formed over a portion of the rear wall 39 a that defines the first right vertical passage 33, and the right side of the protruding wall 46 facing the first right vertical passage 33 is positioned on the right side. A protrusion 44 is provided. That is, when the pachinko ball B flowing down with the second inclined portion 37b in the second right inclined passage 37 in contact with the bottom surface and the protruding wall 46 enters the first right vertical passage 33 from the second inclined portion 37b. Further, the right projection 44 is configured to come into contact with the side. In addition, the lower end of the right introduction guide portion 43 formed in the first right vertical passage 33 is connected to the upper side of the protruding wall 46, and the front end position thereof is set to be the same (see FIG. 7).

実施例では、前記第２右傾斜通路３７の上流側に連通接続する球導入路３６を傾斜通路の一部と見做すことができ、前記突壁４６が形成されていない球導入路３６の断面積は、突壁４６が形成されている第２右傾斜通路３７の断面積より大きくなるよう構成される。すなわち、傾斜通路の断面積は、上流側より下流側が小さくなるよう設定され、この断面積が変化する部位(球導入路３６と第１傾斜部３７ａとの連通部)をパチンコ球Ｂが通過する際に、該パチンコ球Ｂが前壁(裏ユニットベース２３の裏面)に接触する機会を多くすることで勢い(速度)を低下させ得るようになっている。   In the embodiment, the sphere introduction path 36 communicating and connected to the upstream side of the second right inclined passage 37 can be regarded as a part of the inclined passage, and the sphere introduction path 36 in which the protruding wall 46 is not formed. The cross-sectional area is configured to be larger than the cross-sectional area of the second right inclined passage 37 in which the protruding wall 46 is formed. That is, the cross-sectional area of the inclined passage is set so that the downstream side is smaller than the upstream side, and the pachinko sphere B passes through a portion where the cross-sectional area changes (a communication portion between the ball introduction path 36 and the first inclined portion 37a). At this time, the momentum (speed) can be reduced by increasing the chance that the pachinko ball B contacts the front wall (the back surface of the back unit base 23).

前記右通路２６には、図３に示す如く、前記第１右傾斜通路３５および球導入路３６の上流端に下流端で連通接続する補助通路４７が上下方向に延在するよう形成されている。この補助通路４７は、図１において前記板部材１１における枠状装飾体１８の右側方の遊技領域１１ａに配設される補助入賞口４８に上流端で連通接続可能に構成される。この補助入賞口４８は、必要に応じて使用されるものであって、遊技盤１０の第１の仕様においては、図示しない規制具によってパチンコ球Ｂが入賞しないよう構成され、遊技盤１０の第２の仕様においては規制具を取外すことでパチンコ球Ｂが入賞可能に構成されるものである。そして、規制具を取外した際には、補助入賞口４８に入賞したパチンコ球Ｂが、補助通路４７を介して球導入路３６に通入するよう構成される。   As shown in FIG. 3, the right passage 26 is formed with an auxiliary passage 47 that communicates with the upstream ends of the first right inclined passage 35 and the ball introduction passage 36 at the downstream end so as to extend in the vertical direction. . The auxiliary passage 47 is configured to be able to communicate with an auxiliary winning port 48 disposed in the game area 11a on the right side of the frame-shaped decorative body 18 in the plate member 11 in FIG. The auxiliary winning opening 48 is used as necessary. In the first specification of the game board 10, the pachinko ball B is configured not to win a prize by a restricting tool (not shown). In the specification of 2, the pachinko ball B is configured to be able to win a prize by removing the restricting tool. When the restricting tool is removed, the pachinko ball B having won the auxiliary winning opening 48 is configured to pass through the auxiliary passage 47 into the ball introduction path 36.

〔実施例の作用〕
次に、前述した実施例に係るパチンコ機の作用につき説明する。 (Effects of Example)
Next, the operation of the pachinko machine according to the above-described embodiment will be described.

前記遊技領域１１ａに打ち出されたパチンコ球Ｂは、該遊技領域１１ａを流下し、前記始動入賞装置１９の始動入賞口１９ａや左右の普通入賞口２１ａ,２１ｂ,２２ａ,２２ｂに入賞可能となる。   The pachinko ball B launched into the game area 11a flows down the game area 11a, and can be awarded to the start winning port 19a and the left and right normal winning ports 21a, 21b, 22a, 22b of the start winning device 19.

(上左普通入賞口に入賞した場合について)
前記上左普通入賞口２１ａに入賞したパチンコ球Ｂは、前記左球通路２５における第１左縦通路２７の上端部側に通入する。このパチンコ球Ｂは、遊技盤１０が後傾姿勢になっていると共に左導入案内部３１に案内されることで、第１左縦通路２７を画成する後壁２５ｂに沿って流下する。そして、前記左突起３２に上方から当たったパチンコ球Ｂは、前側に変位して前壁(裏ユニットベース２３の裏面)に当たった後に、前記左普通入賞センサ３０の通過孔３０ｂを通過する(図５参照)。すなわち、第１左縦通路２７を流下するパチンコ球Ｂは、左普通入賞センサ３０の通過孔３０ｂを通過する直前に左突起３２および前壁に当たることで勢いが弱められるから、該通過孔３０ｂをパチンコ球Ｂが通過する速度を遅くすることができる。従って、左普通入賞センサ３０の通過孔３０ｂを複数のパチンコ球Ｂが通過する際の前後間隔が短かい場合であっても、該パチンコ球Ｂの速度が遅くなっているから個々のパチンコ球Ｂを確実に検出することができ、誤検出を防止し得る。 (About the case of winning at the upper left ordinary winning entrance)
The pachinko ball B that has won the upper left ordinary winning opening 21 a enters the upper end portion side of the first left vertical passage 27 in the left sphere passage 25. The pachinko ball B flows down along the rear wall 25b that defines the first left vertical passage 27 when the game board 10 is tilted backward and is guided by the left introduction guide portion 31. Then, the pachinko ball B hitting the left protrusion 32 from above is displaced forward and hits the front wall (the back surface of the back unit base 23), and then passes through the passage hole 30b of the left normal winning sensor 30 ( (See FIG. 5). That is, the pachinko ball B flowing down the first left vertical passage 27 is weakened by hitting the left protrusion 32 and the front wall immediately before passing through the passage hole 30b of the left normal winning sensor 30, so that the passage hole 30b The speed at which the pachinko sphere B passes can be reduced. Accordingly, even when the interval between the front and rear when the plurality of pachinko balls B pass through the passage hole 30b of the left normal winning sensor 30 is short, the speed of the pachinko balls B is slow, so that each pachinko ball B Can be reliably detected, and erroneous detection can be prevented.

また、上左普通入賞口２１ａに複数のパチンコ球Ｂが連続して入賞した場合においては、左突起３２を越えた前のパチンコ球Ｂに対し、後のパチンコ球Ｂが左突起３２に当たることで短かい時間ではあるが堰き止められた状態となるから、前後のパチンコ球Ｂ,Ｂの間に隙間を形成することができ、パチンコ球Ｂ,Ｂが連なった状態のまま左普通入賞センサ３０の通過孔３０ｂを通過するのを回避し得る。従って、上左普通入賞口２１ａに複数のパチンコ球Ｂが入賞したにも関わらず、左普通入賞センサ３０が１個のパチンコ球Ｂが通過したと誤検出するのを確実に防止することができ、遊技者に不信感を与えたり遊技店とのトラブルを招くのを防止し得る。   In addition, when a plurality of pachinko balls B are successively won in the upper left ordinary winning opening 21a, the pachinko ball B after the left pawl 32 hits the left projection 32 with respect to the pachinko ball B before the left protuberance 32. Although it is in a state where it is dammed for a short time, a gap can be formed between the front and rear pachinko balls B and B, and the pachinko balls B and B remain connected to each other. Passing through the passage hole 30b can be avoided. Therefore, it is possible to reliably prevent the left normal winning sensor 30 from erroneously detecting that one pachinko ball B has passed even though a plurality of pachinko balls B have won the upper left normal winning opening 21a. It is possible to prevent the player from feeling distrust and causing trouble with the game store.

(下左普通入賞口に入賞した場合について)
前記下左普通入賞口２１ｂに入賞したパチンコ球Ｂは、前記左球通路２５の第２左縦通路２８に通入し、前記左傾斜通路２９を通って前記第１左縦通路２７に通入する。このパチンコ球Ｂは、前記左突起３２に側方から当たることで前方に変位して前壁(裏ユニットベース２３の裏面)に当たった後に、前記左普通入賞センサ３０の通過孔３０ｂを通過する。すなわち、下左普通入賞口２１ｂに入賞したパチンコ球Ｂにおいても、前記上左普通入賞口２１ａに入賞したパチンコ球Ｂと同様に左普通入賞センサ３０の通過孔３０ｂを通過する直前に左突起３２および前壁に当たることで勢いが弱められ、該通過孔３０ｂをパチンコ球Ｂが通過する速度を遅くすることができる。従って、左普通入賞センサ３０の通過孔３０ｂを複数のパチンコ球Ｂが通過する際の前後間隔が短かい場合であっても、該パチンコ球Ｂの速度が遅くなっているから個々のパチンコ球Ｂを確実に検出することができ、誤検出を防止し得る。 (About the case of winning a prize at the lower left ordinary winning opening)
The pachinko ball B that has won the lower left ordinary winning opening 21b enters the second left vertical passage 28 of the left sphere passage 25, and enters the first left vertical passage 27 through the left inclined passage 29. To do. The pachinko ball B is displaced forward by hitting the left protrusion 32 from the side and hits the front wall (the back surface of the back unit base 23), and then passes through the passage hole 30b of the left normal winning sensor 30. . That is, in the pachinko ball B that has won the lower left ordinary winning opening 21b, the left protrusion 32 just before passing through the passage hole 30b of the left ordinary winning sensor 30 in the same manner as the pachinko ball B won in the upper left ordinary winning opening 21a. The momentum is weakened by hitting the front wall, and the speed at which the pachinko sphere B passes through the passage hole 30b can be reduced. Accordingly, even when the interval between the front and rear when the plurality of pachinko balls B pass through the passage hole 30b of the left normal winning sensor 30 is short, the speed of the pachinko balls B is slow, so that each pachinko ball B Can be reliably detected, and erroneous detection can be prevented.

また、下左普通入賞口２１ｂに複数のパチンコ球Ｂが連続して入賞した場合においても、前述したと同様に後側のパチンコ球Ｂが左突起３２で堰き止められる状態となることで、前後のパチンコ球Ｂ,Ｂの間に隙間を形成することができ、パチンコ球Ｂ,Ｂが連なった状態のまま左普通入賞センサ３０の通過孔３０ｂを通過するのを回避し得る。従って、下左普通入賞口２１ｂに複数のパチンコ球Ｂが入賞したにも関わらず、左普通入賞センサ３０が１個のパチンコ球Ｂが通過したと誤検出するのを確実に防止することができ、遊技者に不信感を与えたり遊技店とのトラブルを招くのを防止し得る。   In addition, even when a plurality of pachinko balls B are successively won in the lower left ordinary winning opening 21b, the rear pachinko ball B is blocked by the left protrusion 32 in the same manner as described above. A gap can be formed between the pachinko balls B and B, and the pachinko balls B and B can be avoided from passing through the passage hole 30b of the left normal winning sensor 30 in a state where they are connected. Accordingly, it is possible to reliably prevent the left normal winning sensor 30 from erroneously detecting that one pachinko ball B has passed even though a plurality of pachinko balls B have won the lower left normal winning opening 21b. It is possible to prevent the player from feeling distrust and causing trouble with the game store.

(右上普通入賞口に入賞した場合について)
前記上右普通入賞口２２ａに入賞したパチンコ球Ｂは、前記右球通路２６の第２右縦通路３４に通入し、前記第１右傾斜通路３５を通って球導入路３６に至り、該球導入路３６から第２右傾斜通路３７の第１傾斜部３７ａに通入する。第１傾斜部３７ａの上流端の底面と、球導入路３６の下流端の底面との間には図６に示すように段差が形成されているから、球導入路３６から第１傾斜部３７ａに通入するパチンコ球Ｂは、底面の段差分だけ落下する。また、第２右傾斜通路３７を画成する後壁３９ａには突壁４６が突設されて、球導入路３６の断面積より第２右傾斜通路３７の断面積が小さくなっている。なお、遊技盤１０は、前述したように後傾姿勢となっているから、球導入路３６から第２右傾斜通路３７に通入するパチンコ球Ｂは、底面および後壁３９ａに接触した状態で移動する。従って、第２右傾斜通路３７に通入するパチンコ球Ｂは、前記突壁４６に接触することで流下方向が前方に変えられ、通路の前壁(裏ユニットベース２３の裏面)に接触し易くなる。すなわち、パチンコ球Ｂが通路の壁に接触する機会が多くなることで勢いを弱めることができる。なお、前記突壁４６の上流端部には傾斜面４６ａが形成されているから、球導入路３６から第２右傾斜通路３７へのパチンコ球Ｂの移動は円滑になされ、球詰りが発生するのは防止される。 (Regarding the case of winning in the upper right regular winning entrance)
The pachinko ball B that has won the upper right normal winning opening 22a enters the second right vertical passage 34 of the right sphere passage 26, passes through the first right inclined passage 35, and reaches the ball introduction passage 36, The ball enters the first inclined portion 37 a of the second right inclined passage 37 from the ball introduction path 36. Since a step is formed as shown in FIG. 6 between the bottom surface of the upstream end of the first inclined portion 37a and the bottom surface of the downstream end of the sphere introduction path 36, the first inclined portion 37a extends from the sphere introduction path 36. The pachinko ball B that passes through the ball falls by the level difference on the bottom surface. A projecting wall 46 projects from the rear wall 39 a that defines the second right inclined passage 37, so that the cross-sectional area of the second right inclined passage 37 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the ball introducing passage 36. Since the gaming board 10 is in a backward tilting posture as described above, the pachinko ball B that enters the second right inclined passage 37 from the ball introduction path 36 is in contact with the bottom surface and the rear wall 39a. Moving. Therefore, the pachinko ball B that passes through the second right inclined passage 37 is changed in the flow direction forward by contacting the protruding wall 46, and easily contacts the front wall of the passage (the back surface of the back unit base 23). Become. That is, momentum can be weakened by increasing the chance that the pachinko ball B contacts the wall of the passage. Since the inclined surface 46a is formed at the upstream end portion of the protruding wall 46, the pachinko ball B is smoothly moved from the ball introduction path 36 to the second right inclined path 37, and ball clogging occurs. Is prevented.

前記第２右傾斜通路３７における第１傾斜部３７ａの下流端から飛び出すパチンコ球Ｂは、前記干渉部４５に当たって第２傾斜部３７ｂの底面に落下し、該第２傾斜部３７ｂの底面を流下する。すなわち、パチンコ球Ｂが干渉部４５に当たることで、該パチンコ球Ｂの勢いは弱められ、第２傾斜部３７ｂを流下するパチンコ球Ｂの速度は遅くなる。そして、第２傾斜部３７ｂから前記第１右縦通路３３に通入するパチンコ球Ｂは、前記右突起４４に側方から当たることで前方に変位して前壁に当たった後に、前記右普通入賞センサ３８の通過孔３８ｂを通過する。   The pachinko ball B jumping out from the downstream end of the first inclined portion 37a in the second right inclined passage 37 hits the interference portion 45 and falls to the bottom surface of the second inclined portion 37b, and flows down the bottom surface of the second inclined portion 37b. . That is, when the pachinko sphere B hits the interference portion 45, the momentum of the pachinko sphere B is weakened, and the speed of the pachinko sphere B flowing down the second inclined portion 37b is reduced. The pachinko sphere B passing through the first right vertical passage 33 from the second inclined portion 37b is displaced forward by hitting the right protrusion 44 from the side and hits the front wall. It passes through the passage hole 38b of the winning sensor 38.

すなわち、上右普通入賞口２２ａに入賞したパチンコ球Ｂは、球導入路３６から第２右傾斜通路３７に通入する際に突壁４６により流下方向が変えられることで通路の前壁に当たること、干渉部４５および右突起４４に当たること、等によって勢いが弱められるから、右普通入賞センサ３８の通過孔３８ｂを通過する際の速度を遅くすることができる。特に、上右普通入賞口２２ａから右普通入賞センサ３８までの経路は長いため、通路を流通する過程でパチンコ球Ｂの速度は速くなるが、実施例では上右普通入賞口２２ａに入賞したパチンコ球Ｂが右普通入賞センサ３８に至るまでの間に複数回に亘って勢いを弱めることができるから、右普通入賞センサ３８の通過孔３８ｂを通過する際のパチンコ球Ｂの速度を充分に遅くすることができる。従って、右普通入賞センサ３８の通過孔３８ｂを複数のパチンコ球Ｂが通過する際の前後間隔が短かい場合であっても、個々のパチンコ球Ｂを確実に検出することができ、誤検出を防止し得る。   That is, the pachinko ball B that has won the upper right ordinary winning opening 22a hits the front wall of the passage by changing the flow direction by the protruding wall 46 when entering the second right inclined passage 37 from the ball introduction passage 36. Since the momentum is weakened by hitting the interference part 45 and the right protrusion 44, etc., the speed when passing through the passage hole 38b of the right normal winning sensor 38 can be reduced. In particular, since the path from the upper right ordinary winning opening 22a to the right ordinary winning sensor 38 is long, the speed of the pachinko ball B increases in the course of flowing through the passage, but in the embodiment, the pachinko that won the upper right ordinary winning opening 22a. Since the momentum can be reduced several times before the ball B reaches the right normal winning sensor 38, the speed of the pachinko ball B when passing through the passage hole 38b of the right normal winning sensor 38 is sufficiently slow. can do. Therefore, even when the interval between the front and rear when the plurality of pachinko balls B pass through the passage hole 38b of the right normal winning sensor 38 is short, the individual pachinko balls B can be reliably detected, and erroneous detection is performed. Can be prevented.

また、前記上右普通入賞口２２ａに入賞したパチンコ球Ｂは、前記球導入路３６から第２右傾斜通路３７に通入する際の段差を落下する変位、突壁４６による前方への変位、干渉部４５に当たって落下する際の変位、右突起４４に当たった際の前方への変位等、複数箇所においてパチンコ球Ｂを変位させるよう構成したから、上右普通入賞口２２ａに複数のパチンコ球Ｂが連続して入賞した場合においても、前後のパチンコ球Ｂ,Ｂを確実に離間させることができ、複数のパチンコ球Ｂ,Ｂが連なった状態のまま右普通入賞センサ３８の通過孔３８ｂを通過するのを回避し得る。特に、パチンコ球Ｂが干渉部４５や右突起４４に当たった際には、該パチンコ球Ｂは一瞬堰き止められる状態となるから、先行するパチンコ球Ｂとの間に確実に隙間を形成し得る。従って、上右普通入賞口２２ａに複数のパチンコ球Ｂが入賞したにも関わらず、右普通入賞センサ３８が１個のパチンコ球Ｂが通過したと誤検出するのを確実に防止することができ、遊技者に不信感を与えたり遊技店とのトラブルを招くのを防止し得る。   In addition, the pachinko ball B that has won the upper right ordinary winning opening 22a is displaced by dropping a step when entering the second right inclined passage 37 from the ball introduction path 36, forwardly displaced by the protruding wall 46, Since the pachinko ball B is configured to be displaced at a plurality of locations, such as a displacement when falling on the interference portion 45 and a forward displacement when hitting the right protrusion 44, a plurality of pachinko balls B are placed in the upper right normal winning opening 22a. Even if the player wins continuously, the front and rear pachinko balls B and B can be reliably separated, and the plurality of pachinko balls B and B are connected to each other and pass through the passage hole 38b of the right normal winning sensor 38. You can avoid doing that. In particular, when the pachinko ball B hits the interference portion 45 or the right protrusion 44, the pachinko ball B is in a state of being dammed for a moment, so that a gap can be surely formed between the pachinko ball B and the preceding pachinko ball B. . Accordingly, it is possible to reliably prevent the right normal winning sensor 38 from erroneously detecting that one pachinko ball B has passed even though a plurality of pachinko balls B have won the upper right normal winning opening 22a. It is possible to prevent the player from feeling distrust and causing trouble with the game store.

(下右普通入賞口に入賞した場合について)
前記下右普通入賞口２２ｂに入賞したパチンコ球Ｂは、前記右球通路２６の第１右縦通路３３の上端部側に通入する。このパチンコ球Ｂは、遊技盤１０が後傾姿勢になっていると共に右導入案内部４３に案内されることで、第１右縦通路３３を画成する後壁３９ａに沿って流下する。そして、前記右突起４４に上方から当たったパチンコ球Ｂは、前側に変位して前壁(裏ユニットベース２３の裏面)に当たった後に、前記右普通入賞センサ３８の通過孔３８ｂを通過する(図７参照)。すなわち、第１右縦通路３３を流下するパチンコ球Ｂは、右普通入賞センサ３８の通過孔３８ｂを通過する直前に右突起４４および前壁に当たることで勢いが弱められるから、該通過孔３８ｂをパチンコ球Ｂが通過する速度を遅くすることができる。従って、右普通入賞センサ３８の通過孔３８ｂを複数のパチンコ球Ｂが通過する際の前後間隔が短かい場合であっても、該パチンコ球Ｂの速度が遅くなっているから個々のパチンコ球Ｂを確実に検出することができ、誤検出を防止し得る。 (Regarding the case where a prize is entered at the lower right ordinary winning entrance)
The pachinko ball B that has won the lower right normal winning opening 22 b passes into the upper end portion side of the first right vertical passage 33 of the right sphere passage 26. The pachinko ball B flows down along the rear wall 39a that defines the first right vertical passage 33 when the game board 10 is tilted backward and is guided by the right introduction guide portion 43. Then, the pachinko ball B hitting the right protrusion 44 from above is displaced forward and hits the front wall (the back surface of the back unit base 23), and then passes through the passage hole 38b of the right normal winning sensor 38 ( (See FIG. 7). That is, the pachinko ball B flowing down the first right vertical passage 33 is weakened by hitting the right protrusion 44 and the front wall immediately before passing through the passage hole 38b of the right normal winning sensor 38. The speed at which the pachinko sphere B passes can be reduced. Accordingly, even when the front and rear intervals when the plurality of pachinko balls B pass through the passage holes 38b of the right normal winning sensor 38 are short, the speed of the pachinko balls B is slow, so that each pachinko ball B Can be reliably detected, and erroneous detection can be prevented.

また、下右普通入賞口２２ｂに複数のパチンコ球Ｂが連続して入賞した場合においても、前述したと同様に後側のパチンコ球Ｂが右突起４４で堰き止められる状態となることで、前後のパチンコ球Ｂ,Ｂの間に隙間を形成することができ、パチンコ球Ｂ,Ｂが連なった状態のまま右普通入賞センサ３８の通過孔３８ｂを通過するのを回避し得る。従って、下右普通入賞口２２ｂに複数のパチンコ球Ｂが入賞したにも関わらず、右普通入賞センサ３８が１個のパチンコ球Ｂが通過したと誤検出するのを確実に防止することができ、遊技者に不信感を与えたり遊技店とのトラブルを招くのを防止し得る。   In addition, even when a plurality of pachinko balls B are successively won in the lower right normal winning opening 22b, the rear pachinko ball B is blocked by the right protrusion 44 in the same manner as described above. A gap can be formed between the pachinko balls B and B, and the pachinko balls B and B can be avoided from passing through the passage hole 38b of the right normal winning sensor 38 with the pachinko balls B and B being continuous. Accordingly, it is possible to reliably prevent the right normal winning sensor 38 from erroneously detecting that one pachinko ball B has passed though a plurality of pachinko balls B have won the lower right normal winning opening 22b. It is possible to prevent the player from feeling distrust and causing trouble with the game store.

前記右球通路２６においては、前記第１右縦通路３３および第２右傾斜通路３７を画成する通路形成部材３９を裏ユニットボックス２４とは別体で形成したから、右突起４４や干渉部４５および突壁４６等のパチンコ球Ｂの勢い(速度)等を低減するための手段を裏ユニットボックス２４に直に形成する場合に比べて裏ユニットボックス２４の構成を簡略化することができ、金型費等の製造コストを低く抑えることができる。また、通路形成部材３９を別体としたことで、前記球導入路３６と第２右傾斜通路３７との段差を容易に形成することができる。   In the right sphere passage 26, since the passage forming member 39 that defines the first right vertical passage 33 and the second right inclined passage 37 is formed separately from the back unit box 24, the right protrusion 44 and the interference portion The configuration of the back unit box 24 can be simplified as compared with the case where the means for reducing the momentum (speed) of the pachinko ball B such as 45 and the protruding wall 46 is formed directly on the back unit box 24. Manufacturing costs such as mold costs can be kept low. Further, by providing the passage forming member 39 as a separate body, a step between the spherical introduction passage 36 and the second right inclined passage 37 can be easily formed.

ここで、前記遊技盤１０を第２の仕様で使用する場合には、前記補助入賞口４８から規制具を取外すことで、該補助入賞口４８に入賞したパチンコ球Ｂは、前記補助通路４７を介して球導入路３６に通入し、以後は上右普通入賞口２２ａに入賞したパチンコ球Ｂと同様に、複数箇所で勢いが弱められると共に、前後のパチンコ球Ｂの間には確実に隙間が形成され、前述したと同様の効果を奏する。また実施例では、第２の仕様でのみ使用される補助入賞口４８に連通する補助通路４７を裏ユニットボックス２４に予め形成してあるから、仕様変更に際して裏ユニットボックス２４を交換する必要はなく、仕様変更に際してのコストの上昇を抑制し得る。   Here, when the game board 10 is used in the second specification, the pachinko ball B that has won the auxiliary winning opening 48 can be removed from the auxiliary winning opening 48 by removing the restricting tool from the auxiliary winning opening 48. Then, the ball is introduced into the ball introduction path 36, and thereafter, the momentum is weakened at a plurality of positions as in the case of the pachinko ball B which has won the upper right ordinary winning opening 22a, and a gap is surely provided between the front and rear pachinko balls B. Is formed, and the same effect as described above is obtained. Further, in the embodiment, since the auxiliary passage 47 communicating with the auxiliary winning port 48 used only in the second specification is formed in the back unit box 24 in advance, it is not necessary to replace the back unit box 24 when changing the specification. Therefore, it is possible to suppress an increase in cost when changing specifications.
