Benefits of technology

[0010] In the roulette wheel disclosed in JP-A-8-229191, however, the rotatable wheel and the ball reception members are formed integrally. The ball reception members have to be separated in accordance with the symbols (numbers) so that the rolling ball is received in one of the ball reception members. It is therefore necessary to form a large number of partition walls for partitioning the reception regions. Accordingly, the rotatable wheel has to be molded in accordance with its complicated shape, so that the manufacturing cost increases.

Problems solved by technology

Accordingly, the rotatable wheel has to be molded in accordance with its complicated shape, so that the manufacturing cost increases.
In addition, the partition walls for partitioning the reception regions are members that are worn very easily due to collision with the ball.
That is, due to repeated collision with the ball with long-term use, there may occur irregularities in the surfaces of the partition walls, or painting applied thereto may peel off.
Accordingly, the maintenance is inefficient, and a roulette wheel having a novel structure to solve such a problem has been desired.
Accordingly, the cost is increased, and it is highly likely that a game may be stopped due to a failure or the like in the movable portion.
Further, the maintenance work of the equipment becomes troublesome.
