The launching mechanism 50 includes: a launching rail 52 for guiding a launched game ball toward the game area; a ball stopper 53 for stopping the game ball on the launching rail 52; a ball launching part 51 for launching the game ball on the launching rail 52 onto the game area via the launching rail 52; and a ball discharge part 54 configured to form a gap smaller than a game ball between the launching rail 52 and the ball stopper 53 when a game ball is launched, and to form a gap larger than the game ball between the launching rail 52 and the ball stopper 53 if a game ball is removed from a ball launching position. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
