(Example) Hereinafter, an explanation will be given based on drawings showing an example of the implementation of the present invention.

In FIGS. 1 and 2, the pachinko machine has a front frame 51, a game board 52, a mechanism board 53, and a machine frame 54.
The front frame 5 is attached to the machine frame 54 with a hinge 55.
1 is hinged so that it can be opened and closed freely, and a game board 5 is attached to the front frame 51.
2 is installed.

Reference numeral 57 in the figure is a batted ball launcher 56 (Figure 2)
58 is a storage tray for storing prize balls.

In FIG. 2, on the back side of the component board 70 of the mechanism board 53, various devices and devices are placed between the component board 70 and the game board 52 when the mechanism board 53 is brought into contact with the game board 52. The periphery of the component plate 70 is raised to provide a predetermined distance required for storage, and a processing chamber 71 is formed by the component plate 70 and its periphery, with the game board 52 as one component.

This processing chamber 71 is provided with winning ball processing means and the like for processing the winning balls that have flowed into the back surface of the game board 52 and discharging a predetermined number of winning balls.

Furthermore, approximately in the center of the component board 70 is a mechanism board 5.
3 is brought into contact with the game board 52, an opening 65 is formed in the front of the game board 52 in an area that substantially corresponds to the game area 73 surrounded by the guide rail 72.

This opening 65 is formed so that various winning devices and related equipment such as the winning tool 63A and the large winning tool 63B arranged in the game area 73 can be placed therein without involving the mechanism board 53. be.

By forming the opening 65 to correspond to the gaming area 73, various winning devices, related equipment, etc. can be freely disposed at any position in the gaming area 73.

Although the mechanism board 53 in the embodiment is hinged to the game board 52 via a hinge, the present invention is not limited to this, and any means that can be detachably attached to the game board 52 may be used.

On the back side of the game board 52 that substantially corresponds to the opening 65, there is a collective cover member 64 formed separately from the mechanism board 53, which covers the back surface and has a predetermined distance from the game board 52. It is detachable.

The collective cover member 64 may be attached directly to the game board 52 side, or may be attached to the mechanism board 53 side. In short, when the mechanism board 53 is brought into contact with the game board 52, the opening 65 should be closed by the gathering member 64 so that the winning balls do not escape.

Also, in any case, the assembly cover member 64 is connected to the mechanism panel 5.
3 and is configured to be detachable and detachable.

By providing such collective cover member 64, at least the above-mentioned game area 73 is provided between game board 52 and the game board 52.
A processing cavity 74 (FIG. 4) corresponding to this is formed. This processing cavity 74 spatially communicates with the previously formed processing chamber 71.

In order to pass the winning balls that have flowed into the back surface of the game board 52 into the processing space 74, at least a predetermined distance necessary for this must be provided between the processing space 74 and the game board 52.

The processing space 74 accommodates various equipment for processing winning balls, such as the rear parts of various winning devices, detectors for detecting winnings, and guide plates for guiding winning balls.

Therefore, by making the collective cover member 64 that covers the processing cavity 74 separate from the mechanism panel 53 and detachably attached to the mechanism panel 53 and the game board 52, the collective cover member 64 can be removed. Just process empty space 74
On the contrary, maintenance and inspection of the inside of the processing chamber 71 can be easily carried out by simply removing the mechanism panel 53.

Further, it is sufficient to mold only the collective cover member 64 according to the form of the winning device to be arranged, and there is no need to create the mechanism board 53 each time.

The collecting cover member 64 of the embodiment has a flat gutter shape with an open bottom, and is detachably attached to the game board 52 side.

On the back surface of the component plate 70 below the processing space 74, a guide shelf 10 for receiving winning balls flowing down from the processing space 74 is formed to protrude toward the game board 52 side, and as shown in FIG. A guide path 7 consisting of a shelf 10 and a component board 70, with a game board 52 as one component.
5.

The guide path 75 is spatially communicated with the processing cavity 74.

The guide shelf 10 of the embodiment, as shown in FIG.
It extends across the width direction of the component plate 70 and is slightly inclined in the extending direction so as to correspond to the opening 64 of the gutter-like collective covering member.

A processing chamber 71 located downstream of the guide path 75 separated from the guide path 75 by the guide shelf 10 has a processing chamber 71 in which winning balls guided down the guide path 75 are sent to a winning ball processing mechanism 76 for one winning ball. A ball processing device 77 is provided.

In this way, a space in which the winning balls flowing into the back surface of the game board 52 are configured continuously along the same vertical plane,
That is, by having a structure in which the ball flows from the processing cavity 74 through the guide path 75 to the processing chamber 71 having the winning ball processing device 77 as shown in FIG. It is possible to induce rectification.

In FIG. 3, on the surface of the component plate 70, avoiding the opening 65, there is a storage tank 59 for storing prize balls in the upper part, and a ball supply tray for receiving the prize balls from the storage tank 59 in the center part. A lead-out gutter 61 leading to 57,
At the lower part, a prize ball discharge means such as a diverter gutter 2 for diverting the flow of balls from the outlet gutter 61 to the storage tray 58 is provided.

The upstream side of the outlet gutter 61 in the embodiment is connected to the storage tank 59 provided above the upper edge of the opening 65, the midstream 61A extends substantially vertically downward along the left edge of the opening 65, and the downstream side is connected to the storage tank 59 provided above the upper edge of the opening 65. Along the lower edge of section 65,
The slope part 61B slopes downward from the left to the right.
Outlet 6 of game board 52 communicating with batted ball supply tray 57
It is connected to 0.

Furthermore, a downstream gutter 61B of the outlet gutter 61 is connected to a diversion gutter 2 for diverting the flow to the prize ball storage tray 58.

Reference numeral 1 in the figure indicates a flow dividing means, and reference numeral 3 indicates a flow dividing port thereof.

This flow dividing means 1 includes an inclined portion 61B of the outlet gutter 61.
A diversion port 3 bored in the bottom surface 5 of the passage 4 in the middle of the
A passage 7 of a diversion gutter 2 is connected to the diversion gutter 2 for causing prize balls to flow down from the diversion port 3 to a storage tray 58 further below. The diversion port 3 is a hole with a diameter that allows the ball flowing down the slope 61B to jump over it with its downward force,
The diameter of the hole is at least larger than the diameter of the ball.

Since the flow diversion means 1 according to the present invention has a flow diversion port that is relatively simply opened in the bottom surface of the outlet gutter 61 in the manner described above, while the batted ball supply tray 57 has room to receive the prize ball, The prize balls flowing down are left to the flow force and fly over the diversion port 3, but when the prize balls accumulate in the batted ball supply tray 57 and further prize balls flow down, they are sent to the lead-out gutter 61. Prize balls accumulate from the downstream end side of the slope portion 61B to the upstream side, and finally, the prize balls that have flowed down accumulate as far as the diversion port 3.

In this case, the prize balls flowing down will collide with the prize balls that have accumulated up to the diversion port 3, and will continue to fall down the passage 7 of the diversion gutter 2 from the diversion port 3 without losing its downward momentum. Become.

In this way, some of the prize balls are diverted to the storage tray 58.

As mentioned above, the flow dividing means 1 is provided as a relatively simple hole in the bottom surface 5 of the passage 4 through which the prize ball flows down, so it is not only extremely easy to manufacture, but also Because it follows the current flow,
It has the advantage of being less likely to cause malfunctions such as ball clogging.

Note that the reference numeral 62 in the figure is a prize ball bell.

In FIG. 4, the inclined portion 61B corresponding to the downstream side of the outlet gutter 61 and the guide path 75 are formed so as to at least partially overlap on the front and back sides of the component plate 70. In this way, the above-mentioned lead-out gutter 61 and guide path 75
By forming these on the front and back surfaces of the component plate 70, the strength of the mechanism board 53 can be increased. Since the mechanism panel 53 is equipped with various devices and devices as described above, strengthening the mechanism panel 53 is extremely effective in increasing the durability of the pachinko machine.

In FIGS. 3 and 4, the guide path 75 and the processing cavity 74 are located in the back area of the outlet gutter 61.
It is formed to expand in the peripheral direction. By expanding the guide path 75 and the processing space 74, various winning devices can be freely installed in the gaming area at any position without being restricted by their mounting position. Become.

(Effect of the invention) Since the invention is constructed as described above,
Winning balls that have flowed into the back of the game board can be made to flow down from the processing space through a guide path into the processing chamber that includes a winning ball processing device, through a space that is continuously configured along the same vertical plane, and the winning balls can be It is possible to rectify and guide the balls without clogging the balls.

Furthermore, by overlapping and forming the outlet gutter and the guide path on the front and back surfaces of the component plates, the strength of the mechanism board can be increased, and the durability of the pachinko machine can also be improved.

In addition, since the winning device is extended to the back area of the guide path, processing space, and outlet gutter, the winning device can be relatively freely arranged at any position in the gaming area.

Further, by configuring the mechanism panel and the assembly cover member to be detachable and detachable, maintenance and inspection of the prize winning device is facilitated.

In particular, the present invention provides an assembly in which an opening is formed in the component board in an area that substantially corresponds to the game area of the game board, and a set that covers the back surface of the game board that approximately corresponds to the opening and has a predetermined distance between it and the game board. Since the cover member is removably provided, the large winning device can be freely placed at any position on the game board.

Furthermore, as mentioned above, the flow diversion means of the present invention is provided as a relatively simple flow diversion port at the bottom of the passage through which the prize ball flows down, so it is not only extremely easy to manufacture, but also easy to manufacture. Since it follows the natural flow of water, it has the advantage of being less prone to malfunctions such as ball clogging.
