发明名称 Gaming machine and reel device thereof
摘要 A gaming machine includes: a reel having an outer circumferential surface on which symbols are lined up; a reel driving mechanism which rotates the reel to rearrange the symbols; a magnet which is provided in the reel driving mechanism to change an external magnetic field in accordance with the rotation of the reel; a magnetic force detecting mechanism which detects a magnetic force of the external magnetic field so as to output a magnetic force detection signal; a reel setting unit by which the magnetic force detection signal and arrangement positions of the symbols are associated with one another; and a reel drive control unit which controls the reel driving mechanism so that the symbols are rearranged in a predetermined arrangement based on the magnetic force detection signal and the arrangement positions of the symbols.

主权项 1. A gaming machine comprising: a reel having an outer circumferential surface on which a plurality of symbols are lined up; a reel driving mechanism which rotates the reel to rearrange the plurality of symbols; a magnet which is provided in the reel driving mechanism to change an external magnetic field in accordance with the rotation of the reel; a magnetic force detecting mechanism which detects a magnetic force of the external magnetic field so as to output magnetic force detection signal values; a reel drive control unit which controls the reel driving mechanism so that the plurality of symbols are rearranged in a predetermined arrangement based on the magnetic force detection signal values and arrangement positions of the plurality of symbols; an external control unit which outputs an operation instruction signal in response to an external operation of setting a reel home position after a reel band is attached to the reel; and a reel setting unit which, when the operation instruction signal is output, sets the magnetic force detection signal value, which is detected at the timing of the output of the operation instruction signal by the external control unit, as the home position of the reel.
