Example

[0037] Referring to FIG. 3, a pachinko machine 10 is illustrated as a game machine of the present invention. The pachinko machine 10 has an openable front member 12 composed of an openable frame 13 with a lock, a transparent panel (glass panel, for example) 11 fitted in the openable frame 13, and a playfield board 15 behind the transparent panel 11. The playfield board 15 has an opening 16, inside of which a game machine complex display apparatus (hereinafter, complex display apparatus) 20 appears. For good visibility, the complex display apparatus 20 is placed sufficiently near the transparent panel 11.

[0038] As shown in FIG. 4, the complex display apparatus 20 has a base plate 21, a pair of guide mechanisms 23 attached to both side end areas of an upper surface of the base plate 21, a support frame 22 slidable on the guide mechanisms 23, and a display assembly 34 held between the support frame 22. Each guide mechanism 23 has a support block 23a of channel shape in cross section f...

Abstract

A game machine complex display apparatus is placed behind a transparent panel provided on a front face of a game machine. The game machine complex display apparatus has a display assembly with a plurality of display devices, a support frame for rotatably supporting the display assembly, and a support frame shift mechanism for moving the support frame forward and rearward. The support frame shift mechanism moves the support frame between a forward position close to the transparent panel and a rearward position away from the transparent panel, so that each display surface of the display devices can face the transparent panel at approximately the same distance when the display device is switched to the other.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to a complex display apparatus, and pinball machines, slot machines, and such game machines with this complex display apparatus. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Game machines, such as pachinko machines (pinball related Japanese game machines) and slot machines, are generally equipped with a display apparatus to exhibit symbols. The display apparatuses appear in different kinds including, for example, a mechanical display device called “reel” and “wheel (spinning disc)”, and an electronic display device called a “graphic”. The latter, electronic display device, usually has a liquid crystal display panel or a plasma display panel. [0003] Japanese Patent Laid-open Publication No. 2004-188159 discloses a game machine complex display apparatus composed of several display devices of different kinds. This complex display apparatus is rotated at a certain degrees (90 degrees, for example) by a drive motor, so that the other disp...
