Embodiment Construction

[0099] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be explained referring to a body-sensible swing game machine 1 as an example in which a movement mode of a virtual moving object M (e.g., fighter aircraft) in a virtual space is determined based on an operation with respect to an operation member and the determined movement mode is displayed on a display device.

[0100]FIG. 3 is a perspective view illustrating an outer structure of the swing game machine 1 to which a swing device according to various embodiments of the present invention is applied, and FIGS. 4A to 4D are perspective, side, front, and rear views, respectively, illustrating the swing game machine 1 from which a casing frame is removed.

[0101] As shown in the figures, the swing game machine 1 mainly includes a base stage 10, a swing member 20, a fulcrum support mechanism 30, a driving mechanism storing unit 40, and a money processing machine 60.

[0102] Of those, the base stage 10 serves as a seating to which ...

Abstract

To provide a swing device capable of making a user body sense a rising, lowering, and/or turning feeling more impressively or with higher reality with a simple structure, there is provided a swing device including: a swing member on which a user rides; a fulcrum support mechanism that swingably supports the swing member at a fulcrum; and a first driving mechanism that swingably supports a first driving point on the swing member and moving the first driving point in a vertical direction, the first driving point being spaced apart from the fulcrum in a longitudinal direction of the swing member, the fulcrum is placed on a rear side of a riding position of the user in the longitudinal direction of the swing member.

Description

BACKGROUND [0001] 1. Technical Field [0002] The present invention relates to a swing device in which a swing member on which a user rides is allowed to swing to thereby make the user sense a rising or lowering feeling and the like, and a control method therefor. To be specific, the present invention relates to a swing device with which a user can body sense a rising or lowering feeling that can be felt while a moving object such as an aircraft, a ship, a vehicle, or an animal is in a rising or lowering movement, and a control method therefor. [0003] 2. Description of the Related Art [0004] Up to now, there is known a body-sensible swing game machine placed in an amusement facility such as a game arcade, in which a swing member on which a user rides is caused to swing according to an operation to an operation unit (see, for example, Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-open No. Hei 3-107993). [0005] In this game machine, in order to make the user body sense a attitude or a movemen...
