【発明が解決しようとする課題】しかしながら、この種
のパチンコ機では始動口の入賞率の調整が難しい。However, in this kind of pachinko machine, it is difficult to adjust the winning ratio of the starting opening.

る。That is, if the winning rate of the starting opening is low, it is difficult to enter the special game when the right for the special game is generated, and therefore, the player has no ball or can play the special game before entering the special game. However, the number of balls to be acquired may be reduced before the special game starts again. In addition, by not winning the special game many times, by winning the special winning opening again,
The right to the special game may disappear, so that even if the right to the special game occurs, the special game cannot be fully enjoyed and the player is anxious or stressed.

る。Therefore, according to the present invention, there is provided a right generating means for generating a right for a special game when a predetermined condition is established based on the winning of a game ball into a specific winning opening, and a right generating means when the right is generated. In a pachinko machine equipped with a variable winning device that converts a game ball into a starting opening into a profitable open state for the player, while holding the game ball that entered the introduction opening from the game area, A ball holding device for discharging the ball from the ball opening port to the game area through the opening / closing means is arranged immediately above the starting port.

【０００９】[0009]

【作用】球保留装置の保留球は開閉手段を介して球解放
口から遊技域に放出されると、直下方の始動口にかなり
高い確率で入賞するようになる。When the holding ball of the ball holding device is released from the ball opening port to the game area through the opening / closing means, it comes to win at the starting port immediately below with a fairly high probability.

In this case, the starting port 9 is attached close to the right decorative lamp 20b as shown in FIG. Opening and closing wings 10 on the left side of the nail 69 of the mouth 9
A restriction nail 68 is planted in a fence shape corresponding to the opening angles of a and 10b. Therefore, the ball released from the ball opening 74 is opened and closed between the control nail 68 and the decorative lamp 20b.
When a and 10b are opened, both wings 10a and 10b are prevented from passing, and the starting opening 9 is surely won.

At this time, when the number of winning balls in the opening 88 becomes ten. Or, after a predetermined time has elapsed, the opening / closing door 89 is closed and one special game ends. When this special game ends, if there is unprocessed ON memory of the gate switch 15, after the display conversion of the normal symbol display device 62 is stopped, the display conversion of the normal symbol display device 62 is performed in parallel with the special game, and stopped. When the time display is a winning design, the opening / closing wing 1 of the starting opening 9 is again
0a, 10b and the stopper 75 of the ball holding device 12 are opened.

The display conversion is stopped almost at the same time when the special game is finished, and the opening / closing blades 10a, 10b of the starting opening 9 and the stopper 75 of the ball holding device 12 are opened except when the stop symbol is removed. At this time, if there is a holding ball in the ball holding device 12, almost one wins in the starting opening 9.

Is started, the display conversion is stopped almost at the same time as the end of the special game, and the opening / closing blades 10a, 10b of the starting opening 9 and the stopper 75 of the ball holding device 12 are opened except when the stop symbol is disengaged. At this time, similar to the previous time, if there is a holding ball in the ball holding device 12, almost one wins in the starting opening 9.

Since the opening / closing wings 10a, 10b and the stopper 75 of the ball holding device 12 are opened, as long as the holding ball of the ball holding device 12 and the ON memory of the gate switch 15 continue, each time the special game ends, the start opening 9 is surely made. You can win the prize.

【００９６】このため、特別遊技の権利が発生した際に

The stopper 75 of the ball holding device 12 is opened at
Since almost one of the reserved balls can be won in the starting port 9, if you control the hit ball well, you can repeat the special game for each winning of the starting port 9 without increasing the number of winnings in the starting ports 8 and 9 unnecessarily. be able to. Therefore, even if the special game is not played many times, a certain number of winning balls at the starting openings 8 and 9 (1
It is very unlikely that the right will end when you reach 6) and you can fully enjoy the special game.

口１１に入りやすくなる。By the way, in order to increase the number of holding balls of the ball holding device 12, it is sufficient to shoot a hit ball aiming at the right side of the game area 3,
In that case, the game ball hit to the right side of the game area 3 is received by the cushion 85 in the middle of the guide rail 2, falls to the ball holding device 12 side without largely rebounding, and easily enters the introduction port 11.

の権利が消滅することもきわめて少ない。If a ball is shot aiming at the left side of the game area, the game ball easily passes through the specific gate 7, but if the game ball still does not easily pass through the specific gate 7, the gate switch 15 is turned on. When the display conversion of the normal symbol display device 62 remains stopped by the processing, the hold release switch 8 provided on the front frame of the pachinko machine.
By pressing 1, it is possible to discharge almost one holding ball for each turn-on of the switch 81 and to win the closed start port 9 of the opening / closing blades 10a, 10b. That is, the next special game can be started without waiting for the game ball to pass through the specific gate 7. When a ball is shot aiming at the right side or the left side of the game area 3, the game ball rarely wins the specific winning opening 4 of the special winning device 5, and therefore the special prize is re-winned while the right is generated. It is very rare that the special game right will disappear.

なる。Thus, when the right to the special game is generated, the special game is played based on the winning of the starting openings 8 and 9. In this case, the ball holding device 12 is provided above the starting opening 9. , The timing of the end of the special game, automatically or manually, almost one holding ball is released, the starting opening 9
Since it is made to win the prize, it is possible to avoid the trouble that it is difficult to win the starting mouths 8 and 9 when the right is generated, or that the prizes are won in succession, depending on the condition of the starting mouth 9, etc. There is no need for adjustment.

性にすぐれたメリットをもたらす。In summary, according to the present invention, the right generating means for generating the right of the special game when the predetermined condition is satisfied based on the winning of the game ball to the specific winning opening, and the starting when the right is generated. In a pachinko machine equipped with a variable winning device that converts the game ball into the mouth into an open state that is profitable for the player, while holding the game ball that entered the introduction port from the game area, open and close this hold ball Since the ball holding device that discharges from the ball opening port to the game area through the means is arranged just above the starting port, the starting port through the opening and closing means using the holding ball of the ball holding device when the right to play a special game occurs. Since it is possible to win the prize with good timing and with a high probability, the special game can be efficiently repeated without increasing the number of prizes at the starting opening, and the special game can be fully enjoyed. Further, since it is not necessary to make fine adjustments such as a nail at the start opening, the game shop also has an advantage of excellent manageability.
