Light-emitting means for emitting a light beam for sterilizing a gaming medium is disposed in a gaming machine itself at a position where the light beam irradiates a stored gaming medium or a passing gaming medium, the light-emitting means being shielded from eyes of a player. In particular, the gaming machine is a ball-shooting gaming machine or a coin or medal gaming machine. Specifically, the light-emitting means is disposed at a position where the light beam irradiates a gaming medium flowing into storage means within the gaming machine or a gaming medium stored in the storage means. Specifically, the light-emitting means is disposed at a position where the light beam irradiates a gaming medium stored in a tray located outside the gaming machine. Preferably, the light beam is an ultraviolet ray. As a consequence, the antibacterial specification of the gaming machine becomes more effective, and an antibacterial specification is newly realized in the case of the coin or medal gaming machine. <IMAGE> |
