POLISHING TRANSFER EQUIPMENT OF TOKEN IN GAME HALL

To provide polishing transfer equipment in which, in a game machine arranging game machines using multiple tokens in multiple islands of the game hall, the island with a polishing machine for polishing tokens for use in the game machine can be reduced at the rate of one in multiple islands, and further, the transfer of the tokens between the islands can be performed in one conveyor line, and thereby the number of the conveyors, the number of the polishing machines and other equipment attached thereto can be reduced to reduce equipment cost.SOLUTION: An island unit is provided for controlling movement of tokens and temporary storage of the tokens in each island. There are arranged an island unit UK with a polishing machine including the polishing machine 13 as this island unit, an intermediate island unit UM without the polishing machine 13, and three kinds of island units of the terminal island unit UE. The feeding of the tokens in forward and backward directions is made possible by connecting these island units using one line chute 15 capable of feeding the tokens in the forward and backward directions between these island units. Furthermore, each island unit has a take-in unit 5 for taking the tokens being sent and a first token lift 6 for sending the tokens used in the islands to the line chute 15.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 16 【課題】 遊技場の複数の島に複数のメダルを用いた遊技機を列設した遊技機において、遊技機で使用するメダルを研磨する研磨機を備えた島を複数の島に一つの割合で少なくでき、しかも島間のメダルの移送を一本のコンベヤラインで行えて、コンベヤの台数・研磨機の台数及びその他付属の機器を少なくでき、設備コストを安くできる。【解決手段】 各島にメダルの移動とメダルの一時貯留を制御する島ユニットを設け、この島ユニットとして研磨機１３を備えた研磨機付島ユニットＵＫと，研磨機１３がない中間島ユニットＵＭと，端末島ユニットＵＥの三種の島ユニットを配置し、これら島ユニット間を一本のメダルの正逆送りが可能なラインシュート１５で連絡して、メダルの正逆送りを可能とする。更に、各島ユニットには送られるメダルを取り込む取り込み器５及び島で使用されたメダルをラインシュート１５へ送り出す第１メダルリフト６を有する。【選択図】図１６
