Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <Industrial Application Field> The present invention relates to a prize dispenser in a pachinko parlor or the like that ensures the payout of a specific prize, which is a cash prize, to a customer.

<Prior Art> Recently, it has been used for various purposes with the development of a magnetic recording system. For example, for a specified prize (cash prize) to be paid out at an amusement park such as a pachinko parlor, a magnetic tape is attached to the specified prize, and data such as a store name, an amount of money and a date are recorded on the magnetic tape. We will receive this specific gift and bring it to a separate cash exchange, and it will be automatically cashed by applying it to a cash exchange equipped with a specified reader, and the specified prize will be erased and returned to a specified store. Prevention of unauthorized use of prizes and crime prevention measures (If magnetic data is erased, if the cash value is lost, even if the specified prize is stolen, the damage will be small)
Has been tried. In this case, magnetic data recording for a specific prize at a pachinko parlor currently in use is performed by simply holding a magnetic writer on the magnetic tape portion and writing predetermined data in the prize discharge path of the prize dispenser. . However, due to the function of the prize dispenser, a plurality of such special prizes (for example, five prizes) are overlapped and paid out.

<Problems to be solved by the invention> However, in the case of a type in which a plurality of pieces are overlapped and fed out as described above, for example, when a particular prize is packed in a stocker unit of a prize dispenser, one side of the particular prize is attached. There is a mistake in setting the magnetic tape position on the opposite side of the regular (reverse direction), the magnetic tape itself of the specific prize is strange,
Data may be leaked due to magnetic recording due to a failure of the magnetic writer or writing failure.

In view of the above situation, the present invention has an object to provide a prize payout machine in a pachinko parlor or the like in which data recording etc. for a plurality of specific prizes advanced to a prize discharge path by a mechanical feeding mechanism are checked in advance. It is a thing.

<Means for Solving the Problems> According to the present invention, a specific prize formed by sticking a magnetic tape for magnetically recording predetermined data on a side surface of a flat casing is horizontally stacked on a stocker portion of a prize dispenser main body. A magnetic head that sets and then erases the remaining recorded data on one side of the prize carry-out road surface that raises and delivers this specific prize in units of multiple sheets on an elevator.
A magnetic writer for writing necessary data and a checking means including a magnetic reader for detecting a writing error are sequentially arranged, and the necessary data is written to a specific prize in units of a plurality of the prize carrying paths which are moved by a push plate. It is a thing.

<Operation> Due to the above-mentioned configuration, when a predetermined number of rising specific prizes are overlapped by the payout elevator at the base end of the prize payout machine and proceed to the prize carry-out path, the prize carry-out path is moved to a side position. First, the remaining data is erased by the installed magnetic head and the magnetic recording is temporarily made empty, then predetermined data such as store name, price, date, etc. are magnetically recorded by the next magnetic reader, and finally by the check means consisting of the magnetic reader. By checking whether or not reliable data can be written in a predetermined number of specific prizes, there is no problem with the customer receiving the paid-out specific prizes.

<Embodiment> Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings of an embodiment.

1 is a prize carry-out path laid on the top of the prize dispenser main body 2,
N on the support plate portion 1a standing on the side of the prize carry-out path 1,
Data erasing magnetic head 3 having S and N erasing heads
Then, a magnetic writer 4 for magnetically recording predetermined data and a check means 5 composed of a magnetic reader for detecting a write error are continuously arranged. In this case, the vertical width of the head of each reader / writer is at least the maximum number of stacked specific prizes 6 delivered to the prize carry-out path 1 (for this device,
(5 sheets) according to the height. A magnetic tape 7 is affixed to the side portion 6a of the specific prize 6 for magnetically recording necessary data.

To explain this action, first, a group of specific prizes 6 presenting this rectangular flat housing is horizontally stacked and set on each stocker section 8 in the prize dispenser main body 2.

Here, the prize dispenser main body 2 serving as a prize counter
At this time, the lifting screw 9 rotates based on the data signal corresponding to the number of balls or metal brought in by the customer, and the lifting table 10 of the screw 9 causes the specific prize 6 on the stocker portion 8 to be transferred to the prize carry-out path 1. Move up to the surface. In this case, the lift amount of the lifting table 10 is moved by the thickness of a predetermined number (for example, a maximum of 5 units) of the specific prizes 6 to be fed out, and the bottom surface of the lifted specific prizes 6 group is set as the prize carry-out path 1. .

After this, the push plate 1 placed at the base end of the prize delivery passage 1
1 is forward-fed in accordance with the rotation of the feed shaft 12 of the shaft in the same longitudinal direction, and the specific prize 6 overlapped on the prize carry-out path 1 is moved forward. At this time, the data erasing magnetic head 3 which is orthogonal to the side of the prize carry-out path 1 in the writing unit 13 erases the remaining recording data that is recorded on the magnetic tape 7 of each specific prize 6 and is used last time. Of course, the magnetic tapes 7 of the specific prizes 6 are aligned in the same direction. In this way, necessary data such as the store name, the amount of money, the date, etc. are written on the magnetic tape 7 part which has been colored as it passes through the position of the magnetic writer 4 in the next stage. Finally, the check means 5 consisting of a magnetic reader
By passing the position, it is confirmed whether or not the predetermined data is recorded. Therefore, the writing failure of the data for the specific prize 6 that has passed through the writing unit 13 is checked, and if there is the writing failure, the gift dispenser main body 2
An alarm (not shown) provided in step 1) may be sounded or the push plate 11 may be stopped to stop the prize payout to the customer.

However, as a general rule, the number of this prize carry-out device is 1000 yen,
Three types for 500 yen and 100 yen are formed in parallel. For example, the third
In the prize dispenser shown in the figure, five pieces are paid out each.
4 outlets for 1000 yen prize carry-out passage 1 and 4 outlets for 500 yen prize conveyer passage 1 for 1 500
The present invention is provided with one port for carrying out the prize carry-out path 1 for a circle, and the operation of the plurality of prize carry-out paths 1 is performed at once.

<Effects of the Invention> As described above, the prize dispenser of the present invention in a pachinko parlor or the like has a magnetic head for data erasing and a magnetic writer for writing data in a prize discharge path for delivering a specific prize with a magnetic tape on the side. By sequentially arranging the check means such as, the predetermined number of specified prizes delivered to the prize delivery path can be provided by the function of the delivery mechanism as appropriate according to the payout signal according to the number of balls or metal brought in by the customer. , The data used last time is surely erased, and the necessary data is written on the colored magnetic tape, and after that, the number of writing errors such as whether or not the data is correctly entered is checked, and the customer, the clerk It is possible to wipe out the troubles such as. Further, this check means may be simply arranged in parallel with the data writing magnetic writer provided up to now, it is compact without taking a specific place, and it is possible to prepare for a conventional free gift dispenser, etc. Has the practical effect of.
