The gap is of the order of magnitude. If there is a gap large enough to allow the game ball 6 to enter, the game ball 6 is stuck in the gap, or the game ball 6 passes between the windmill main body 2 and the cover 7 to play in a direction not desired. This is to prevent the ball 6 from flowing down. Specifically, when the gap is set to be equal to or less than half of the diameter of the game ball 6, the above-described problem can be surely prevented. The inter-blade portion 5 is the blade 2

While rotating the main body 2 in the clockwise direction in the figure, the game balls 6 also flow down substantially in the lower right direction. Therefore, the wind turbine body 2 rotates in a fixed direction (clockwise in this example). In addition, game ball 6
Does not collide with the blade 2 c of the windmill main body 2 rotating counterclockwise, so that the collision speed with the windmill main body 2 does not greatly reduce the falling speed of the game ball 6. Therefore, the game ball 6 that has fallen to the right can be guided to flow down and proceed in a substantially specific direction (in this example, the lower left direction).
