Game machine
Abstract
A game machine includes a game field on which medals and balls are placed, a pusher table which configures the game field moves in the game field, a driving mechanism which causes the pusher table to reciprocate in the game field by power of a driving source, a rail which guides the ball outside the game field, an operating member which is disposed to move between an operation position at which the operating member comes into contact with the ball positioned on the rail and causes the ball to be displaced in a range in which the ball does not drop from the rail and a retreating position at which the operating member does not come into contact with the ball on the rail, and a shaft which transfers power of the driving source of the operating member to move between the operation position and the retreating portion.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A game machine comprising:
a game field on which medals as first game media and second game media different from the medals are placed; a pusher table which configures the game field and is disposed to move in the game field; a table driving mechanism which causes the pusher table to reciprocate in the game field by power of a driving source; a guide member which guides the second game medium outside the game field; an operating member which is disposed to move between an operation position at which the operating member comes into contact with the second game medium positioned on the guide member and causes the second game medium to be displaced in a range in which the second game medium does not drop from the guide member and a retreating position at which the operating member does not come into contact with the second game medium on the guide member; and an interlocking mechanism which transfers power of the driving source of the table driving mechanism to the operating member and causes the operating member to move between the operation position and the retreating position.
2 . The game machine of claim 1 , wherein
the operating member is disposed along the guide member.
3 . The game machine of claim 1 , wherein
the game field further includes a table in which a size of an area on which the first and second game media are placed changes according to the reciprocation of the pusher table, the guide member is disposed to be arranged along a side of the table, and the operating member is disposed to be arranged at the position adjacent to the guide member.
4 . The game machine of claim 3 , wherein
the guide member supports the second game medium in one direction, and supports and guides the second game medium between the guide member and the side surface of the table.
5 . The game machine of claim 1 , wherein
a notch is disposed in the operating member.
6 . The game machine of claim 1 , wherein
the operating member is arranged to come into contact with a lower portion of the second game medium.
7 . The game machine of claim 1 , wherein
the table driving mechanism drives the operating member and the pusher table at the same timing.
8 . The game machine of claim 1 , wherein
the second game medium is a ball.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
