[0033] Embodiment 1:

[0034] The pinball machine prize-winning ball-dispensing device of the embodiment of the present application is characterized in that it includes a shell 100; a vertical plate 200, which is installed in the shell 100; a vertical turntable 300, which is rotatably connected to one side of the vertical plate 200; a plurality of ball-setting holes 310 are provided in a ring shape on the disk surface of the vertical turntable 300; a rotating driving member 400, which is drivingly connected to the vertical turntable 300; a ball storage bin 500, which is provided on a side of the vertical turntable 300 away from the vertical plate 200 and the balls therein are suitable for entering the ball-setting holes 310; wherein, a ball-dispensing channel 210 is provided on the upper part of the vertical plate 200 and is connected to the ball-setting holes 310 on the side of the vertical turntable 300 away from the bottom of the shell 100.

[0035] In this embodiment, the winning ball dispensing device of the pinball machine of the present application embodiment includes a shell 100; a vertical plate 200 is installed in the shell 100; a vertical turntable 300 is rotatably installed on one side of the vertical plate 200; a plurality of ball placement holes 310 are provided in an annular manner on the disk surface of the vertical turntable 300; it should be understood that the aperture of the ball placement holes 310 is larger than the diameter of the pinballs used in the pinball machine; at the same time, a rotating driving member 400 is provided to drive the vertical turntable 300 to drive the vertical turntable 300 to rotate; a ball storage bin 500 is provided on the side of the vertical turntable 300 away from the vertical plate 200, and the balls in the ball storage bin 500 are suitable for (meaning able to) enter the ball placement holes 310; wherein, a ball dispensing channel 210 is provided on the upper part of the vertical plate 200 and is connected to the ball placement holes 310 on the side of the vertical turntable 300 away from the bottom of the shell 100; that is, the vertical plate 2 00 is provided with a ball discharging channel 210 at the upper part, the first end of the ball discharging channel 210 is connected to the ball placing hole 310 located at the upper part of the vertical plate 200, and the second end of the ball discharging channel 210 is connected to the outside; in the use state, since the ball storage bin 500 is connected with the ball placing hole 310 on the vertical turntable 300, the ball can enter the ball placing hole 310; the rotary drive member 400 is started to drive the vertical turntable 300 to rotate, thereby driving the ball (i.e., marble) in the ball placing hole 310 to climb in the vertical plane until the ball placing hole 310 with the ball therein is aligned with the ball discharging channel 210 at the upper part of the vertical plate 200, and the ball in the ball placing hole 310 enters the ball discharging channel 210 and is finally discharged out of the shell 100 as a reward; adopting this design, it can ensure that the embodiment of the present application has a large ball storage capacity under the premise of compact structure.

[0036] For ease of understanding, the concept of the vertical turntable 300 is explained as follows: Figure 1-3 As shown, the ball placing holes 310 on the vertical turntable 300 have different positions in the vertical plane, so that the balls near the bottom of the ball storage bin 500 can be transported upward through the ball placing holes 310; optionally, the ball placing holes 310 are evenly distributed on the outside of the vertical turntable 300 in a ring shape; optionally, the ball placing holes 310 are eccentrically arranged, especially the ball placing holes 310 are opened on the outer edge of the vertical turntable 300, so that the marbles in the ball storage bin 500 can enter the ball placing holes 310; preferably, the ball placing holes 310 are arranged in a circle. The number is the same as the maximum number of prizes; illustratively, as shown in the figure, since the maximum number of prizes is 5, there are also five ball-setting holes 310, so that the rotating drive member 400 drives the vertical turntable to rotate one circle to achieve the dispensing of all prizes. It can be understood that when the maximum number of prizes is other values, the number of ball-setting holes 310 can also be adjusted accordingly. At the same time, it should be noted that this is only a preferred method. Under the premise of only being able to complete the dispensing of prizes, the number of prizes and the number of ball-setting holes 310 may not be equal.

[0037] In an optional embodiment, the vertical plate 200 and the vertical turntable 300 may be designed to be separate.

[0038] In an optional embodiment, the rotary driving member 400 includes but is not limited to an electric motor.

[0039] In an optional embodiment, the ball storage bin 500 has a guiding slope that guides the ball into the ball placement hole 310 near the bottom of the shell 100; the inner wall of the ball placement hole 310 has a guiding slope that guides the ball into the ball dispensing channel 210.

[0040] In this embodiment, the balls in the ball storage bin 500 are guided to the ball placement hole 310 near the bottom of the shell 100 (hereinafter referred to as the near-ground end) by a guiding slope, so as to ensure that the ball storage bin 500 has a larger ball storage space, and at the same time, it is convenient for the ball to smoothly enter the ball placement hole 310 at the near-ground end from the far-ground end to prevent jamming; the inner wall of the ball placement hole 310 has a guiding slope to guide the ball into the ball dispensing channel 210, so that the ball placement hole 310 that climbs to a high position on the vertical plane of the vertical turntable 300 and the ball placement hole 310 that climbs to a high position on the vertical plane of the vertical turntable 300 can be aligned with the ball placement hole 310. When the ball spitting channel 210 is aligned, the ball can smoothly enter the ball spitting channel 210 and be spit out; optionally, the bottom of the ball storage bin 500 is shaped to be raised toward the ground, so as to concentrate the balls at the inner bottom of the ball storage bin 500; it is understandable that the ball spitting channel 210 should have a near-ground end and a far-ground end, and be inclined to facilitate the execution of the ball spitting action; preferably, a guiding movable groove or slide rail is also provided in the ball spitting channel 210 to prevent the movement direction of the ball from shifting when it moves therein.

[0041] In an optional embodiment, in order to prevent the ball from falling during the upward transportation, the gap between the vertical turntable 300 and the vertical plate 200 should be smaller than the diameter of the ball; further, the gap between the vertical turntable 300 and the vertical plate 200 should be smaller than the radius of the ball to prevent the ball from being stuck in the gap therebetween; further, the vertical turntable 300 leans against one side of the vertical plate 200, that is, it is flush with the vertical plate 200.

[0042] In an optional embodiment, a controller and a sensor 600 are disposed in the housing 100 , and the sensor 600 and the rotating driving member 400 are both connected to the controller.

[0043] In this embodiment, when a ball passes through and is detected by the sensor 600, it is equivalent to the sensor 600 obtaining a winning signal. The sensor 600 sends the winning signal to the controller, and the controller controls the rotating drive member 400 to drive the vertical turntable 300 to rotate, so that the ball setting hole 310 is aligned with the ball spitting channel 210 to perform the ball spitting action; optionally, multiple sensors 600 can be used, and the winning signals emitted by each sensor 600 are different, so that the game has randomness and is more exciting; for example, the winning signals emitted by the sensor 600 are different in quantity; then when the winning number is one, it is sufficient to control one ball setting hole 310 to be aligned with the ball spitting channel 210; when the winning number is two, two ball setting holes 310 are controlled to be aligned with the ball spitting channel in succession, and so on.

[0044] In an optional embodiment, one side of the ball storage bin 500 is connected to the side wall of the shell 100 and the side wall of the vertical plate 200 to form a closed cabin for storing balls; a hole is opened on the shell 100 to communicate with the ball storage bin 500 and a cabin door 510 is arranged outside the hole.

[0045] In this embodiment, one side of the ball storage bin 500 is connected to the side wall of the housing 100 and the side wall of the vertical plate 200 to form a closed cabin for storing balls, so as to prevent the balls from falling from the ball storage bin to other places inside the housing 100, causing the pinball machine to malfunction; it should be understood that the closed cabin mentioned here is not necessarily a sealed cabin, because the function of the closed cabin here is only to ensure that the pinballs in the ball storage bin 500 can only go out through the ball placement through hole 310 on the vertical turntable 300, so even if there is a certain gap between the ball storage bin 500 and the inner wall of the housing 100, as long as the gap is smaller than the diameter of the ball itself, the ball will not fall out; of course, in order to avoid the ball getting stuck in the gap, the gap can be set to be smaller than the radius of the ball itself; it can be understood that when the gap is zero, that is, the closed cabin is in a sealed state, it also has the advantage of preventing dust from entering, so it can be used as a preferred method. When the number of balls as rewards in the ball storage bin 500 is insufficient, the hatch 510 can be opened to make up the balls. The hatch 510 is preferably connected in a rotating manner for easy operation.

[0046] Embodiment 2:
