PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable a game ball to be also easily launched in a direction directly below a launcher of a game machine having the launcher provided in an upper part of a game area.SOLUTION: The length of a launching rail 34 is set slightly greater in dimension than a diameter of a game ball, and the launching rail is inclined rightward and downward. The game ball fed to the launching rail 34 is hit with a launching hammer 10. Even when the game ball is not hit, it is rolled rightward, and ejected to the outside of a launcher 3, that is to say, a game area. A ball feed part 33, which is configured to be swingable in such a manner that a position P serves as an axis, feeds the game ball, which is held in a recess 43, to the launching rail 34 when swung by a ball feed solenoid not shown in Fig. When a launching handle is turned to a degree that does not bring a limit switch into an on-state, only a ball feed operation is performed without performance of a hitting operation. Since the game ball also falls into the game area from the launching rail in that case, the game ball can also be easily launched in a direction directly below the launcher 3. |
