Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS6449588
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PURPOSE: To provide a continued winning game in which a player learns the state of continued winning and the position of a winning zone (V-zone) changes with time by setting the conditions of the continued winning as entering a specific winning zone while a display device corresponding to the specific winning zone is showing a specified display. CONSTITUTION: Attacker lamps 36L, 36C and 36R are repeatedly lit up and put out at specified intervals with outputs from a lamp control circuit 42 while a plate 88 is open. While any of the lamps 36L, 36C and 36R is lit up, corresponding one of winning ports 34L, 34C and 34R becomes a winning zone. When a struck ball enters a winning port corresponding to a lamp while the lamp is lit up, a determination circuit 43 outputs an attacker opening signal for continuing winning. This signal is delayed by a specified time through a delay circuit 44 and sent to a motor drive circuit 46. Therefore, the attacker plate 33 is closed once from the open state and opened again to continue favorable state for the player. In this way, any of the plurality of winning ports in the attacker is set as the winning zone only when any corresponding lamp is lit up so that the winning zone is changed and the player may recognize time and position of the winning port that is made the winning zone.
