Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application This invention relates to a trouble display device in a pachinko game hall.

Conventional Technology Traditionally, when a problem occurs with a pachinko machine at a pachinko game parlor, a player presses a pushbutton button located above each pachinko machine.
Representative lamps installed at both ends of the island where the pachinko machine was located were lit to notify the store staff of any problems related to the pachinko machine.

FIG. 1 shows an example of such a conventional trouble display device in a pachinko game parlor.
A large number of pachinko machines 2 are arranged in parallel on an island 1, and a push button 4 is provided on the upper part 3 of each pachinko machine 2. When a failure occurs in a pachinko machine 2, a player presses a push-button button 4 on the upper part 3 of the pachinko machine 2 to notify a clerk that a problem has occurred in the pachinko machine 2. Totsu lamps 5 are provided on both sides of the upper end of each island 1, and when the push-button button 4 is pressed, the corresponding totsu lamp 5 lights up. By catching the illumination of such a totsu lamp 5, the clerk can know that a failure has occurred in the pachinko machine 2 at a particular location.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in conventional trouble display devices for pachinko game parlors, only a push-button button 4 is provided to notify the occurrence of trouble in the pachinko machine 2 itself, but not to notify other troubles. No equipment was provided. Therefore,
For example, if there is a shortage of balls in the exchange ball lending machine 6, a lack of change, a breakdown in the ball lending machine between pachinko machines, a breakdown in the vending machine (cola, coffee, etc. vending machine), or a breakdown in the prize exchange machine, players should shout loudly. or walking all the way to the prize counter to inform the store staff. This is extremely inconvenient in actual pachinko gaming parlors, and has brought about undesirable business results.

Purpose of the Invention The purpose of the invention is to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks of conventional trouble display devices in pachinko game parlors, and to solve problems in pachinko machines as well as troubles in exchange ball machines, inter-machine ball machines, and automatic vending machines. To provide a trouble display device for a pachinko game parlor, which can easily notify a store clerk of the occurrence of a trouble such as a failure of a pachinko machine or a prize exchange machine. Further, the two types of totsu lamps can be configured integrally or separately.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the gist of the present invention is a trouble display device for a pachinko game hall according to claim 1.

Means for Solving the Problems The trouble display device for a pachinko game parlor according to the present invention includes, in addition to a totsu lamp for indicating the occurrence of a trouble in the pachinko machine itself, a changeable ball lending device that is not related to troubles in the pachinko machine itself. machine,
A feature is that a second totsu lamp is installed at the top of each island to indicate troubles with ball lending machines, vending machines, prize exchange machines, etc. between pachinko machines.

Effect Since this invention has such a structure,
It is possible to easily inform a store clerk of troubles other than those of the pachinko machine itself. Moreover, since two totsu lamps are used, the store staff can instantly determine which one is causing the problem.

Embodiment Hereinafter, an example of a trouble display device for a pachinko game parlor according to the present invention will be explained with reference to FIGS. 2 to 4.

In this invention, two totsu lamps 1
Use 0,11. In other words, pachinko machine 2
A totsu lamp 10 for displaying the occurrence of related troubles and a totsu lamp 11 for displaying the occurrence of other troubles are used in pairs. It is preferable that these top lamps 10 and 11 have different colors. For example, one Totsu lamp 10 is made red, and the other Totsu lamp 11 is made red.
to green or white. That way, you can easily identify the type of trouble even from a distance.

If the two totsu lamps 10 and 11 are attached together at one place as shown in the example shown,
In addition to being able to keep manufacturing costs low,
It has the advantage of being able to be installed in a position that is easy to see. In particular, the two types of top lamps 10 and 11 can be installed in locations that are already familiar to conventional devices, which provides a great practical advantage in that the store staff will not be able to overlook them. however,
The invention is not limited to such embodiments.

A socket 13 is fixed to the tip of a bendable or deformable support fitting 12, and the top lamp 10 is attached to the socket 13. In addition, the other totsu lamp 11 has a socket 15 attached to the tip of a rigid support fitting 14 of a predetermined shape,
It is attached to the socket 15. When using the deformable support fitting 12, the totsu lamp 1
A great effect can be obtained in that 0 can always be set at the most visible position. For example, depending on the shape of the island decoration, if a non-deformable supporting metal fitting 14 is used, the totsu lamp 11 may be located in a position that is difficult to see. However, if the deformable support fitting 12 is used, the totsu lamp 10 can be moved to a position where it can be easily seen.

However, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. For example, only the fixed-shaped support fitting 14 can be used for both the totsu lamps 10 and 11, or for both the totsu lamps 1
It is also possible to use deformable support fittings 12 for 0 and 11.

Totsu Plump 10, which is used for problems related to pachinko machines, is installed in the same way as the conventional device.
It is electrically connected to a push button 4 provided on the upper part 3 of the holder. This may be done by providing a trouble detection mechanism in the pachinko machine 2 and electrically connecting it there. In addition, the totsu lamp 11 for troubleshooting other than the pachinko machines 2 is provided by an exchange ball lending machine 6 installed at the end of the island 1, an inter-machine ball lending machine 7 installed between the pachinko machines 2, or a vending machine (not shown). , a prize exchange machine (not shown), etc., or if such a failure detection mechanism is not provided (or it may be provided), the ball rental It is also possible to install pushbuttons in the machines 6 and 7, vending machines, prize exchange machines, etc., so that the totsu lamp 11 can be turned on manually. Moreover, such a button can also be provided at each pachinko machine. In short, 10 tips for troubles related to pachinko machines
What is necessary is to turn on or blink a separate lamp 11 so that the store clerk can immediately catch it and know that a trouble has occurred.

Effects of the Invention It is possible to easily notify a store clerk of a problem other than a pachinko machine. In addition, since two types of totsu lamps are provided, the clerk can instantly determine whether the problem is with the pachinko machine itself or something else, and can promptly take appropriate action based on the determination.
