PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a game medium supply device with a simple mechanism for operating a guide member, capable of disposing two supply ports facing each other with a carrier passage in-between. SOLUTION: Tokens M are carried by the carrier passage 1 in the direction 1a of carriage. First and second supply ports 3a and 3b are disposed facing each other on both sides of the direction 1a of carriage for supplying tokens M to their corresponding game medium using machines respectively. The tokens M carried along the carrier passage 1 are guided to the support ports 3a and 3b by first and second guide members 4 and 5. When the first guide member 4 approaches the carrier passage 1, guide surfaces 4d and 4e of the guide member face the support port 3a side and are inclined, and the first guide member 4 guides the tokens M to the support port 3a. When the second guide member 5 approaches the carrier passage 1, a guide surface 5c of the guide member faces the support port 3b side and is inclined, crossing the guide member 4, and the guide member 5 guides the tokens M to the supply port 3b. The guide member 4 is displaced by a cam 11 to the position close to the carrier passage and to the position apart from the carrier passage. The guide member 5 is displaced by a cam 12 to the position close to the carrier passage 1 and to the position apart from the carrier passage. A geared motor 7 rotates the cams 11 and 12 while differentiating the phases of the cams 11 and 12, and selectively drives the guide member 4 or the guide member 5. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
