Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to a ball dispensing machine installed between a large number of pachinko machines arranged in a row. This invention relates to a pachinko ball rental machine that discharges a number of pachinko balls corresponding to .

(Prior art) As a conventional pachinko ball rental machine of this type, there is a "ball rental machine" disclosed in Utility Application No. 137287, filed by our company.
The following is about it.

In this device, when a small denomination coin is inserted, the small denomination activation lever is rotated, and the lock lever connected to the small denomination activation lever releases the stop pawl from the sprocket wheel, releasing the rotation stop and releasing the pachinko ball. Start flowing down. Then, this small amount payout state is maintained while the small amount cam plate engaged with the small amount activation lever rotates a predetermined amount, that is, while the sprocket wheel rotates to take out the small amount. The rotation of the sprocket wheel is stopped by returning the activation lever to its normal state and lowering the lock lever to engage the stop pawl. This completes the small amount coin dispensing operation based on the small amount coin insertion. When a large amount coin is inserted, the large amount activation lever is rotated, and the large amount activation lever causes the small amount activation lever to rotate together with the activation pin. The rotation of the small amount activation lever causes the lock lever to perform a disengagement operation on the stop pawl, canceling the stoppage of rotation of the sprocket wheel, and the pachinko balls begin to flow down.

The high-priced cam plate, which is engaged by the activation protrusion and controls the rotation of the high-priced activation lever, is activated by the biasing force when the attached clutch pawl is first released from its lock by the rotation of the high-priced activation lever. . and,
This clutch pawl engages with the engagement step of the inner ring cam of the high-priced gear, which is a gear that rotates once in conjunction with the sprocket wheel while the high-priced ball is being taken out. It rotates as one. The rotation of the high-value starting lever is controlled by this high-value cam plate, and it is prevented from returning to the normal state until the sprocket wheel rotates by the high-value amount. That is, the operation of dispensing a large amount of coins is performed by the operation of the large amount activation lever from rotation due to the fall of a large amount of coin to return to the normal state.

The above is an overview of this ball rental machine.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) In this conventional ball lending machine, the clutch pawl attached to the high-priced cam plate has a flat plate shape, and the clutch pawl is engaged by the rotation of the high-priced starting lever. It is configured to be unlatched and engaged with the engagement step by the biasing force of a spring (not shown). If this spring breaks or falls off, or if an abnormality occurs in the spring due to tampering from the outside, the clutch pawl becomes free and does not engage with the engagement step of the inner ring cam. Since the rotation stops and the high-value activation lever prevents the small-value activation lever from returning, an abnormal situation occurs in which the sprocket wheel does not stop rotating and the pachinko balls continue to flow down.

The present invention changes the structure in which the clutch pawl is engaged with the engagement stepped portion only by the biasing force of the spring after it is released by the rotation of the high-priced activation lever, and the clutch pawl is released from the lock by the rotation of the high-value activation lever. Therefore, the clutch in which the activation protrusion is engaged is rotated, and the left side of the clutch pin of the clutch is engaged with the engagement groove provided in the inner ring cam, and the rotation of the clutch is guided by the right side of the clutch that is engaged in the slit. It was invented to prevent abnormal situations that could occur with conventional mechanisms.

(Means for Solving the Problems) Claim 1 of the present invention provides a sprocket wheel that rotates with the weight of the supplied pachinko balls and is normally in a stopped state when a stop pawl engages with the sprocket wheel, a small denomination activation lever whose one end rotates downward under the weight of the small denomination coin, and the stop pawl releases the stoppage of rotation of the sprocket wheel via a lock lever connected to the other end; A small amount payout mechanism having a small amount cam that rotates to control the downward rotation of the small amount activation lever, and a small amount gear that rotates once while the sprocket wheel takes out the small amount. a high-value activation lever having a starting pin whose one end rotates downward under the weight of a high-value coin and rotates the small-value activation lever downward together with the high-value activation lever; a activation protrusion that engages with the groove of the clutch and the high-value cam plate; and the sprocket wheel. a high-value gear that rotates in conjunction with the high-value start-up gear and has an inner ring cam provided with an engaging groove portion that is engaged by a clutch pin each time a small-value coin is dispensed, and the high-value gear rotates in conjunction with the high-value start-up. It has a cam that controls the downward rotation of the lever and a clutch that fits into the engaging groove of the inner ring cam, and a high-speed cam plate that rotates together with the high-speed gear when the clutch is engaged, and the activation protrusion is connected to the clutch. Normally, the lever engages with the groove of the clutch and pushes the clutch upward against the biasing force of the spring, but when it falls due to the weight of the high-value coin, the high-value activation lever pushes the clutch downward and pushes the left side of the clutch pin of the clutch. The high-speed starting lever, which is controlled by engaging the high-speed cam plate, engages with the high-speed cam plate and is controlled by engaging the engagement groove of the inner ring cam and rotating the high-speed cam plate and high-speed gear together by the operation of this clutch. The pachinko ball rental machine is characterized in that the small amount starting lever is rotated downward together with the small amount starting lever, and the small amount starting lever is prevented from returning until the large amount playing is completed by the small amount playing mechanism using the small amount starting lever. It is.

Further, claim 2 is the pachinko ball rental machine according to claim 1, wherein the clutch includes a clutch pin that penetrates left and right at the tip of one side and has an insertion hole that fits into the rotating shaft, and a clutch pin that penetrates from side to side at the tip of the other side. The cam plate has a U-shape with a sloping part at the top and a groove part in the middle, and is pivotally supported by a high-priced cam plate having a slit in which the right part of the clutch pin engages, and the activation protrusion engages in the groove part. When the clutch is lowered by the weight of the inserted high-value coin, it engages with the activation protrusion of the high-value activation lever and is pushed down.The left side of the clutch pin fits into and engages the engaging groove of the inner cam, and the right side of the clutch pin engages with the engaging groove of the inner cam. The clutch is engaged with the slit to facilitate engagement with the engaging groove, and is locked at the end of the slit to limit the range of rotation of the clutch. The large amount starting lever that has dropped the coin engages with the large amount cam plate and prevents the small amount starting lever from returning until the large amount of coins have been dispensed, and the starting projection of the large amount starting lever engages with the groove of the clutch. This clutch mechanism for a pachinko ball lending machine is characterized in that it comprises a high-priced ball dispensing mechanism that allows the clutch pin to be disengaged from the engagement groove.

(Function) When a small denomination coin is inserted, the small denomination activation lever is rotated, and the lock lever connected to the small denomination activation lever releases the stop pawl from the sprocket wheel, releasing its rotational stop and causing the pachinko balls to fall. start. Then, this small amount payout state is maintained while the small amount cam plate engaged with the small amount activation lever rotates a predetermined amount, that is, while the sprocket wheel rotates to take out the small amount. The rotation of the sprocket wheel is stopped by returning the activation lever to its normal state and lowering the lock lever to engage the stop pawl. This completes the small amount coin dispensing operation based on the small amount coin insertion.

When a large amount coin is inserted, the large amount activation lever is rotated, and the large amount activation lever causes the small amount activation lever to rotate together with the activation pin. The rotation of the small amount activation lever causes the lock lever to perform a disengagement operation on the stop pawl, canceling the stoppage of rotation of the sprocket wheel, and the pachinko balls begin to flow down.

The high-priced cam plate, which is engaged by the starting protrusion and controls the rotation of the high-priced starting lever, first uses the clutch pin attached to the clutch to rotate the high-priced gear by the rotation of the high-priced starting lever and the biasing force of the spring. Engages with the engagement groove of the inner ring cam.

The high-value gear, which rotates once in conjunction with the sprocket wheel while dispensing high-value balls, rotates together with the high-value cam plate by the coupling action of the clutch pin engaged in the engagement groove of the inner cam.

The rotation of the high-value starting lever is controlled by this high-value cam plate, and the return to the normal state is prevented until the sprocket wheel rotates by the high-value amount.
That is, the operation of dispensing a large amount of coins is performed by the operation of the large amount activation lever from rotation due to the fall of a large amount of coin to return to the normal state.

(Embodiments) Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. Note that the following description will be made assuming that a 100 yen coin is used as a small denomination coin and a 500 yen coin is used as a high denomination coin.

(a) 100 yen coin dispensing mechanism Figure 1 shows the 100 yen coin dispensing mechanism of the pachinko ball rental machine according to the present invention.
The main components of the yen ball dispensing mechanism are shown.

A ball passage 12 is provided almost vertically on the front side of the casing 10, that is, closer to the player side side 10a when installed, and the pachinko balls flow down inside this ball passage 12 and are discharged from the ball outlet 14. . This ball passage 12 is provided with a sprocket wheel 16 that rotates by engaging with the pachinko balls flowing down. This sprocket wheel 16 has 10 locking portions 16a with which pachinko balls are engaged one by one.
There are 10 pachinko balls, and each rotation is made by the falling of 10 pachinko balls. By stopping the rotation of the sprocket wheel 16, it is possible to prevent the pachinko balls from flowing down.

A 100 yen coin passage 18 is formed on the back side 10b of the casing 10, into which the player can insert coins.
The 100 yen coins are judged to be good or bad by a coin sorter (not shown), and only proper 100 yen coins fall down the 100 yen coin path 18.

One end 20a protrudes into the 100 yen coin passage 18,
A 100 yen activation lever 20 is pivoted and rotated downward by the weight of a fallen 100 yen coin. this
One end of a lock lever 24 is connected to the other end 20c of the 100 yen activation lever 20 across the rotating shaft 22, and a stop claw 26 is connected to the other end of the lock lever 24. This stop claw 26 rotates around a fulcrum shaft 26a and is driven by a drive pin 24a provided on the lock lever 24. That is, when the lock lever 24 moves upward, the rotating end 26b of the stop claw 26 rotates upward (in the direction of arrow 100). When the stop pawl 26 rotates upward, the stop pawl 26 separates from one of the two protrusions 28a provided on the rotating body 28, which is formed to rotate together with the sprocket wheel 16, and the sprocket wheel 16 rotates. It becomes possible to rotate.

An ankle 29 is provided near the sprocket wheel 16 so that the pachinko balls are accurately fed one by one by the locking portion 16a.

The rotation of the sprocket wheel 16 is caused by a coaxial gear 17 via intermediate gears 30, 32 and 34.
It is transmitted to the 100 yen gear 38 formed on the 100 yen cam plate 36. The intermediate gear 32 and the 100-yen gear 38 have the same number of teeth, and when the former rotates once, the latter also rotates once.

Next, the operation of putting out a 100 yen coin when a 100 yen coin is inserted will be explained based on FIGS. 1 to 4.

1 to 4 show the engagement relationship between the 100 yen start lever 20 and the 100 yen cam plate 36 and the rotational control of the sprocket wheel 16 by the lock lever 24 and the stop pawl 26 during the operation of dispensing 100 yen balls. There is.

First, Figure 1 shows a state in which no 100 yen coin is inserted (normal time), and the 100 yen cam plate 3
6 has a shape with a convex portion 36a facing down and a stepped portion 36b on the right side, and the protrusion 20b of the 100 yen activation lever 20 comes into contact with the outer peripheral portion between the convex portion 36a and the stepped portion 36b and is stopped. A spring 40 is attached to the other end 20c of the 100 yen activation lever 20, and the other end 20c is biased clockwise. At this time, the lock lever 24 is also in its normal state, and by engaging the stop claw 26 with one of the protrusions 28a of the rotating body 28, the sprocket wheel 16 is stopped.

Next, when a 100 yen coin is inserted and hits one end 20a of the 100 yen activation lever 20, the 100 yen activation lever 20 rotates counterclockwise. Then, as shown in FIG. 2, the protrusion 20b of the 100 yen activation lever 20
comes into contact between the convex portion 36a and step portion 36b of the 100-yen cam plate 36.

At this time, the lock lever 24 moves upward in the 200 direction due to the rotation of the 100 yen activation lever 20, and the stop claw 26 also rotates in the direction of arrow 100 about the fulcrum shaft 26a and separates from the protrusion 28a of the rotating body 28. The sprocket wheel 16 becomes rotating, and the pachinko balls in the ball passage 12 begin to flow down.

As the pachinko balls flow down, the sprocket wheel 16 rotates, and the intermediate gears 30, 32, and 34 rotate.
The 100-yen cam plate 36 rotates due to the rotation of .

Figure 3 shows the state in which the 100 yen cam plate 36 is rotated, and the 100 yen activation lever 2 is applied with a rotational force in a semi-counterclockwise direction due to the weight of the 100 yen coin.
0 rotates further by the amount of the drop. This rotation causes the 100 yen activation lever 2 to move inside the 100 yen coin passage 18.
The 100 yen coin held at one end 20a of the zero falls and is ejected. At this time, 100 yen activation lever 20
The projection 20b engages with the stepped portion 36b of the 100-yen cam plate 36.

Here, the 100 yen activation lever 20 has a spring 4
It rotates back clockwise due to the bias of 0. The protrusion 36a of the 100 yen cam plate 36 that rotates as shown in FIG.
Rotate above b. This 100 yen cam board 36
Due to the rotation of
By kicking the protrusion 20b of the 100 yen activation lever 20, the action of returning the 100 yen activation lever 20 to its normal position can be performed.

In this way, the rotation of the 100 yen activation lever 20 caused by the insertion of a 100 yen coin causes the sprocket wheel 16 to start rotating, thereby starting to dispense the ball. Then, by the operation of one rotation of the 100-yen cam plate 36, the 100-yen
By returning the circle start lever 20 to its normal state, the lock lever 24 and the stop pawl 26 to their original states, and stopping the rotation of the sprocket wheel 16, the ball dispensing for 100 yen is completed.

In this embodiment, the sprocket wheel 16 has 10 locking portions 16a, so for example, 100 locking portions 16a are provided.
If 25 pachinko balls are to be played in a circle, the sprocket wheel 16 will make two and a half revolutions while the 100-yen cam plate 36 makes one revolution. That is, the number of teeth of the gear 17 coaxial with the sprocket wheel 16 is 2.5 of the number of teeth of the intermediate gear 32 (and the 100-yen gear 38).
It has become one-fold.

(b) 500 yen coin dispensing mechanism Figure 5 shows the main components of the 500 yen coin dispensing mechanism, and elements common to the 100 yen coin dispensing mechanism in Figure 1 are given the same symbols. Rotation of sprocket wheel 16 is transmitted to intermediate gears 30 and 32. This intermediate gear 32 is coaxially connected to the intermediate gear 32.
A gear 42 having one-fifth of the number of teeth is provided.
The rotation of this gear 42 is further configured to be transmitted to a 500-yen gear 46 via an intermediate gear 44.

Therefore, the 500 yen gear 46 constantly rotates when the sprocket wheel 16 rotates, and also rotates during the above-mentioned 100 yen coin dispensing operation. The intermediate gear 32 and the 500 yen gear 46 have the same pitch and number of teeth,
500 yen gear 46 rotated via intermediate gear 44
is in a relationship that the intermediate gear 32 makes one rotation (1/5 rotation for every 100 yen) when the intermediate gear 32 rotates five times. This point is different from the case where the 100-yen gear 38 rotates at the same time as the intermediate gear 32.

9A and 9B show a plan view and a cross-sectional view of the clutch of the present invention. The clutch 54 has a U-shape, and a clutch pin 55 is provided at the tip of one side of the clutch pin 55 that penetrates from side to side (as viewed from the front side 10a in FIG. 5), and the other side, which is slightly shorter, has a sloped portion 54c with a notched tip. with a groove 54 in the middle of both sides.

It is normally biased by a spring 56 in the direction of downward rotation (see FIG. 10).

In the clutch 54, the activation protrusion 66 of the 500 yen activation lever 60 engages with the groove 54b, and the 500 yen activation lever 60, whose one end 60a is lowered by the weight of the 500 yen coin, is activated by a synergistic force with the biasing force of the spring 56. It acts to push down the clutch 54. At this time, the right part 55b (lower part in FIGS. 9 and 10) of the clutch pin 55 engages with the slit 53, and the inner ring cam 4
The left part 55a of the clutch pin 55 (the upper part in FIGS. 9 and 10)
engages with the engagement groove portion 50 of the inner ring cam 48. The reason why the left portion 55a of the clutch pin 55 reliably fits into and engages with the engaging groove portion 50 is due to the synergistic force and the guiding effect of the slit 53 in which the right portion 55b of the clutch pin 55 engages and rotates. The right part 55b of the clutch 54 is locked at the end of the slit 53, so that the activation protrusion 66 of the 500 yen activation lever 60 can easily detach from the engaged inclined part 54c of the clutch 54. .

FIG. 10 is an exploded perspective view showing the relationship between the 500 yen gear 46, the 500 yen cam plate 52, and the clutch 54 that connects the two. First, it has an inner ring cam 48.
The 500 yen gear 46 is formed with an engaging groove portion 50 in which the left portion 55a of the clutch pin 55 engages at each rotational position of the 100 yen ball dispensing operation. This 500 yen gear 4
6 is provided concentrically with the aforementioned 100 yen gear 38, and furthermore, a 500 yen cam plate 52 is attached concentrically to the lower side of this 500 yen gear 46. On the side of the 500 yen gear 46 of the 500 yen cam plate 52, a clutch 54 having a clutch pin 55 penetrating left and right at one end thereof is attached so as to be rotatable about a fitting hole 54a. The clutch pin 55 that penetrated
The left portion 55a of the clutch pin 55 engages with or disengages from the engagement groove 50 of the inner ring cam 48, and the right portion 55b of the clutch pin 55 engages with a slit 53 cut out in the 500-yen cam plate 52, thereby increasing the rotation range of the clutch pin 55. Limited. The clutch 54 is biased by a spring 56 so that the clutch pin 55 rotates toward the outer circumference of the 500-yen cam plate 52.
52d is a spring shaft, and 52e is a spring receiver.

Furthermore, the 500 yen cam plate 52 is provided with one recess 52b and five protrusions 52a on its circumference, and the activation protrusion 66 of the 500 yen activation lever 60 is normally
It engages with the recess 52b of the 500 yen cam plate 52, and the pin 66a provided on the activation projection 66 engages with the groove 54b of the clutch (FIG. 5).
When the 500 yen activation lever 60 descends due to the weight of the 500 yen coin, the activation protrusion 66 engages the inclined portion 54 of the clutch 54.
c, and sequentially engages with the five locations of the convex portion 52a until it engages with the concave portion 52b, which is the original position,
In other words, it takes 100 yen to complete a pachinko ball worth 500 yen.
A control cam for the 500-yen activation lever 60 is configured to engage and operate to prevent the circular activation lever 20 from returning.

As shown in FIG. 5, a 500 yen coin passage 58 is formed on the back side 10b of the casing 10 as a separate passage from the 100 yen coin passage 18 described above. Then, when this 500 yen coin falls, it rotates,
500 which performs the function of starting the operation of dispensing 500 yen coins.
The circular activation lever 60 has one end 60a protruding into the 500 yen coin passage 58, is rotatably supported by a rotation shaft 62, and a weight 61 is provided at the other end 60b. The weight 61 biases the 500 yen activation lever 60 so that the other end 60b rotates downward in the normal state.

In addition, this 500 yen activation lever 60 has one end 6
A starting pin 64 is provided which engages the 100 yen starting lever 20 in order to rotate the 100 yen starting lever 20 at the same time when the 0a rotates in the counterclockwise direction (direction of arrow 300). The pin portion 66 is inserted into the groove portion 54b of the clutch 54.
An activation protrusion 66 is provided that is engaged by the arrow a to control rotation.

Next, the operation of the 500 yen coin dispensing mechanism constructed as described above will be explained based on FIGS. 5 to 8.

The state of the 500 yen activation lever 60 in FIG. 5 shows the normal state in which no 500 yen coin is inserted.
In this state, the pin portion 66a of the activation protrusion 66 is
The clutch 54 has a pin portion 6 in the groove 54b.
6a is pushed up against the biasing force of the spring 56 by the engaged activation protrusion 66.

When the clutch 54 is pushed up, the clutch pin 5 of the clutch 54
The left part 55a of 5 is the inner ring cam 48 of the 500 yen gear 46
It is in a state where it does not engage with the engagement groove portion 50 of.
FIG. 6 is a diagram showing the engagement relationship between the clutch 54 and the inner cam 48. The 500 yen gear 46 is rotated by the rotation of the sprocket wheel 16, so that the intermediate gear 3
The 500 yen cam plate 52 is in a non-rotating state even when it is rotating through 0, 32, and 44 (for example, when performing a 100 yen ball dispensing operation).

Next, a 500 yen coin is inserted, and the 500 yen coin that has passed through the coin sorting machine falls down the 500 yen coin passage 58.
Hitting one end 60a of the 500 yen starting lever 60, 500 yen
The circular activation lever 60 rotates in the direction of the arrow 300.
Due to this rotational movement, the starting protrusion 66 escapes from the recess 52b of the 500-yen cam plate 52, and the pin portion 66a of the starting protrusion 66, which has engaged with the groove 54b of the clutch 54, rotates the clutch 54 in the outer circumferential direction. move. At this time, the left portion 55a of the clutch pin 55 of the clutch 54 is engaged with the engagement groove 50 of the inner cam 48 of the 500-yen gear 46.

Further, when the 500 yen starting lever 60 is rotated, the pin portion 66a of the starting projection 66 engages with the groove portion 54b of the clutch 54, and the left portion 55a of the clutch pin 55 is rotated.
Until the clutch pin 55 is engaged with the engagement groove 50 of the inner ring cam 48, the right portion 55b of the clutch pin 55 engages with the slit 53 of the 500-yen cam plate 52, rotates in the direction of the engagement groove 50, and is locked at the end. Ru. When the right portion 55b of the clutch pin 55 is engaged with this slit 53, the clutch 54 is suddenly stopped. At that point, the activation protrusion 66 of the 500 yen activation lever 60 engages with the groove 54b of the clutch 54 and rotates downward.
escapes instantly through the inclined portion 54c of the clutch 54.

That is, in order to securely fit and engage the left portion 55a of the clutch pin 55 into the engagement groove 50, the 500 yen activation lever 60 and the spring 5 are rotated downward by the weight of the coin.
The slit 53 that utilizes the synergistic effect with the urging force of No. 6 and that the right portion 55b of the clutch pin 55 engages with.
This is the guiding effect. Pin portion 66 of activation protrusion 66
The sloping portion 54c of the clutch 54 makes it easy to release the clutch 54, and the range of rotation of the clutch 54 is limited to prevent accidents such as falling off.

When the 500 yen starting lever 60 rotates, the starting pin 64
As a result, the 100 yen starting lever 20 is also rotating at the same time, and the rotation of the 100 yen starting lever 20 causes the sprocket wheel 16 to rotate in the same manner as when the 100 yen coin is put out as described above. . The 500 yen gear 46 that is interlocked with the rotation of the sprocket wheel 16 rotates clockwise, and this rotation causes the 500 yen cam plate 52 engaged with the clutch pin 55 to rotate.
It starts rotating together with the 500 yen gear 46. and,
The 500 yen cam plate 52 rotates further, and the protrusion 68 of the 500 yen activation lever 60 engages the notch 5 of the 500 yen cam plate 52.
The temperature drops to 2f, resulting in the state shown in Fig. 7. That is, the 500 yen activation lever 60 further rotates in the direction of the arrow 300, and the 500 yen coin is discharged downward.

When the 500 yen coin is ejected, the 500 yen activation lever 6
0 is returned in the direction of arrow 400 as shown in FIG. 8 by the weight of the weight 61 provided on the other end 60b side. Then, the activation protrusion 66 of the 500 yen activation lever 60 comes into contact with the first protrusion 52a counting from the recess 52b of the 500 yen cam plate 52 and stops.

Then, as the 500 yen cam plate 52 further rotates, the activation protrusion 66 of the 500 yen activation lever 60 is activated.
It falls into the inner diameter portion 52c of the 500 yen cam plate 52. At this time, the 500 yen starting lever 60 does not return to the normal state shown in FIG. 16 is maintained in a rotatable state.

Therefore, the 500 yen cam plate 52 is the 500 yen gear 4 that rotates in conjunction with the rotation of the sprocket wheel 16.
It continues to rotate further in unison with 6. The 500 yen activation lever 60 is connected to the convex portion 52 of the 500 yen cam plate 52.
The 500-yen cam plate 52 repeats reciprocating rotation every time it hits point a, and the pin portion 66a of the activation protrusion 66 engages with the groove portion 54b of the clutch 54, and the 500-yen cam plate 52 falls into the recess 52b of the 500-yen cam plate 52, and the left side of the clutch 54 is rotated. 55a is rotated once until it is disengaged from the engagement groove 50 of the inner cam 48 of the 500-yen gear 46.

When the left part 55a of the clutch pin 55 is disengaged, even if the 500 yen gear 46 rotates, the 500 yen cam plate 5
2 is in a non-rotating state. Then, the 500 yen activation lever 60 also enters the normal state by falling into the recess 52b of the 500 yen cam plate 52, and at the same time,
The 100 yen activation lever 20 also returns to its normal state.

When the 100 yen activation lever 20 returns to the normal state, the lock lever 24 moves downward, and the stop claw 2
6 returns to a position where the sprocket wheel 16 can stop rotating. The sprocket wheel 16 rotates to a position where the protrusion 28a of the rotating body 28 engages with the stop pawl 26 and stops, thereby stopping the ball from rolling out.

As described above, rotation of the sprocket wheel 16 is started by the rotation of the 500 yen activation lever 60 caused by the fall of the 500 yen coin, and the 500 yen cam plate 52 is rotated once.
During the rotation, the sprocket wheel 16 is maintained in a rotating state, and the ball is released by 500 yen.

(Effects of the invention) As explained above, the pachinko ball lending machine according to the invention utilizes common gears as much as possible in order to share the mechanism for dispensing balls for small amounts with the mechanism for dispensing for large amounts.
A clutch mechanism is used as a means of connecting the inner cam and the high-priced cam plate, and when the high-priced activation lever is rotated, the clutch in which the activation protrusion is engaged is rotated, and the left side of the clutch pin is attached to the inner cam. The right part of the clutch pin is engaged with a slit to facilitate engagement with the engagement groove, and is locked at the end of the slit to guide rotation of the clutch. This mechanism eliminates the problem of the clutch not operating due to spring abnormality, which was a problem with conventional mechanisms, and enables accurate pachinko payout for small and large amounts using only mechanical means. It became possible.
