Description

【考案の詳細な説明】技術分野本考案は、例えばパチンコ機の景品玉返却機用
として好適な玉用シユートに関する。[Detailed Description of the Invention] Technical Field The present invention relates to a ball chute suitable for use, for example, in a prize ball return machine of a pachinko machine.

従来技術従来のパチンコ機の景品玉返却機用シユート
は、シユートの幅を徐々に狭くし、最後に玉が一
列に整列して流れるように形成されているが、こ
のものはシユートの狭まつた部分に玉が詰りやす
く、また、シユートの全長が必然的に長くなるこ
とから、シユートの汚れや湿度等が玉の流れに影
響を及ぼし、完全かつ確実に玉を一列に配列さ
せ、滑かに流下させることが困難であつた。Prior Art The chute for the prize ball return machine of conventional pachinko machines is formed so that the width of the chute is gradually narrowed and the balls are aligned in a line at the end and flow. It is easy for balls to get clogged in the chute, and since the overall length of the chute is inevitably long, dirt and humidity in the chute can affect the flow of the balls, ensuring that the balls are perfectly and reliably arranged in a line and smoothly. It was difficult to make it flow down.

目的本考案の目的は、上述した欠点を除去し、構造
が簡単でかつシユートの汚れや湿度等に影響され

かに流下させることができるようにした玉用シユ
ートを提供することにある。Purpose The purpose of the present invention is to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, and to create a ball that has a simple structure and that can always line up a certain number of balls in a line without being affected by dirt or humidity on the chute, and make them flow smoothly. The objective is to provide a chute for balls that can be used.

構成上記目的を達成するため、本考案の玉用シユー
トは、玉の径よりやや大きめの幅の底部と両側壁

特徴とする構成を有する。Configuration In order to achieve the above object, the ball chute of the present invention has one end of the ball feed gutter having a bottom portion and both side walls having a width slightly larger than the diameter of the ball as a ball supply port, and one end of the ball feed gutter has a bottom portion with a width slightly larger than the diameter of the balls and both side walls. A part of the side wall near the ball supply port is cut out, and the bottom of the ball feed gutter is connected to the cutout,
The structure is characterized by a horizontal discharge gutter with an inclined bottom.

信号等により開閉自在に設けられている。 In FIG. 1, a prize ball feed gutter 2 connected to a ball supply port 1 has a bottom portion 4 having a width slightly larger than the diameter of a prize ball 3, and both side walls 5, 5'. A portion of one side wall 5' near the ball supply port 1 is cut out, and a discharge gutter 8 connected to the bottom portion 4 of the feed gutter 2 and having an inclined bottom portion 7 is added to the cutout portion 6. A side wall 9 is provided at the side edge of the discharge gutter 8, and a discharge port 10 is provided at the tip.
form. Shutters 11 and 12 are provided at the tips of the ball supply port 1 and the prize ball feed gutter 2 so that they can be opened and closed by a command signal for returning the prize ball.

line up in a line. Balls exceeding the fixed amount or bouncing enter the discharge gutter 8, are transferred to the inclined bottom 7, flow down, and are discharged to the outside from the discharge port 10. When the shutter 12 at the tip of the feed gutter 2 is opened by the prize ball return command signal and the shutter 11 of the ball supply port 1 is closed, only a certain amount of prize balls 3 lined up in the feed gutter 2 are returned. When the return is completed, the shutter 12 of the feed gutter 2 is closed, and the prize balls 3 are sent from the ball supply port 1 again, and a certain number of prize balls are always lined up in a line in the feed gutter 2, and the other balls are sent to the discharge gutter. 8 and is discharged to the outside.
