摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To dispense with a guide chute for aligning game balls of a ball tank and flowing them down in an enclosed type game machine.SOLUTION: A ball tank 23 for an enclosed type game machine includes, in the inside thereof: a plurality of partition plates 23e extending from a front-side wall surface 23c toward a rear-side wall surface 23d; and a plurality of partition plates 23f extending from the rear-side wall surface 23d toward the front-side wall surface 23c, where the front-side partition plates 23e and the rear-side partition plates 23f are alternately disposed in the horizontal direction. A strip of guide passage 23g is thus formed inside the ball tank 23. The guide passage 23g is formed into a cylindrical shape such that game balls can pass therethrough, with their aligned in a line. Further a bottom surface 23h of the guide passage 23g is formed into a gentle inclined plane from the vicinity of a receiving inlet 23a toward the vicinity of a discharge outlet 23b.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
