Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a ball receiving device for a pachinko machine.

Conventional ball receivers for pachinko machines that have been commonly used include the so-called "tulip" in which a pair of wings open and close, and those that accept balls only when the opening/closing plate is tilted forward. Types account for the majority. However, since these devices change only between two states, one in which the ball is easily accepted and the other in which it is difficult to accept the ball, the game becomes monotonous and lacks interest.

Therefore, in the present invention, a ball receiver member in which a plurality of ball receivers of various sizes are formed is rotatably supported on the front surface of a mounting plate, and the ball receiver member is sequentially moved by the balls received in the ball receiver. By moving the ball receiving part, the manner in which the ball is received can be changed in various ways.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a mounting plate in which a ball hole 2 is bored at the upper position. At the center of the front surface of the mounting plate 1, there are ball sockets 3a, 3b, 3 of various sizes on the outer peripheral side.
A ball bearing member 4 in which a plurality of sections c and 3d are formed is rotatably supported by a rotating shaft 5. In this embodiment, the sizes of the ball receiving parts 3a to 3d are 3a, 3
The ball receiving parts 3a to 3d are formed smaller in the order of c, 3d, and 3b, but when any of these ball receiving parts is located at the top, it communicates with the ball through hole 2. is set to.

On the other hand, a guide box 6 is fixed to the rear surface of the mounting plate 1.
The ball receiving member 4 is arranged so as to cross the inside of this guide box 6
A rotary shaft 5 is rotatably mounted horizontally, and a rotating body 8 having cross-shaped blades 7a to 7d is fixed to the rotary shaft 5. Any one of these blades 7a to 7d is always located below the ball hole 2 and receives the ball falling from the ball hole 2.

Reference numeral 9 denotes a locking member that hangs down from the rear surface of the ball through hole 2, and bearing plates 10, 1 that are protruded above the ball through hole 2.
It is swingably supported by a shaft 11 inserted between the shafts 11 and 11, and is normally biased toward the ball through hole 2 side by a weight 12 on the side of the shaft 11.
The blades 7a to 7 are located anywhere between the blades 7a to 7d, and when tilted backward as shown by the chain line in FIG.
It can swing to a position where it does not collide with d.

The number of blades of the rotating body 8 is determined by the number of the ball receiving parts 3a to 3d of the ball receiving member 4. For example, when there are three ball receiving parts, the blades of the rotating body 8 are arranged three times at intervals of 120 degrees. Formed individually.

Next, the operation of the present invention will be explained. First, second
When a hit ball B enters the ball receiving portion 3a in the state shown in FIGS. Since the ball bearing member 4 is engaged and locked, the ball bearing member 4 also does not rotate. In this state, the ball passing hole 2 and the ball receiving part 3a are in a communicating position, so the ball B is hit in the ball passing hole 2.
It is guided into the guide box 6 through. At this time, due to the ball pressure of the ball B, the hanging piece 9a of the locking member 9 is attached to the weight 12.
The lock member 9 is rotated as shown by the chain line in FIG. 4 against the bias of the lock member 9 to release the lock. When the weight of the ball B is applied to the blades 7a of the rotating body 8, the rotating body 8 rotates, and at the same time the ball bearing member 4 connected by the rotating shaft 5
It also rotates. When the ball B falls further and the blade 7a reaches the position of the blade 7d in FIG. 3, the ball B flows outward from the bottom of the guide box 6. The hanging piece 9a of the locking member engages between the blades 7b and 7c of the rotating body 8 by the action of the weight 12, and locks with the ball receiving portion 3b facing upward.

Thereafter, each time a ball falls onto the ball receivers 3b to 3d, the ball receiver member 4 rotates 90 degrees, and when the ball receiver 3a is located at the uppermost position, one cycle is completed.

As described above, according to the present invention, the ball receiving member in which a plurality of ball receiving parts of various sizes are formed is rotated to a predetermined angle depending on the weight of the hit ball, so that the manner in which the ball is received completes one cycle. During the game, it changes in a more diverse way than the conventional one, which has the effect of making the game more interesting.
