Abstract: A game machine which uses play items such as cards and which enables the player to play a game seriously and to concentrate in the game so as to win over the opponent is provided according to the present invention. The game machine controls the progress of a game based on data read out from the play items, and issues a new play item for each game played. The game machine includes means for setting a game fee at a discount rate in accordance with the number of previous consecutive wins for the player to try a next post-victory bonus game after winning one game, and means for determining the number of games played based on the outcome (win or loss) of the player's previous games and for issuing new play items collectively to the player by the number corresponding to the determined number of games played.

Abstract: A probe body (200) includes a middle closing portion (250) formed upright on a connector front portion (261A) and a female thread (261D) into which a male screw (110) is screwed. A sensor module (300) includes a slidable-contact portion (322) that slidably contacts with the connector front portion (261A), a pressing member (321) that is pressed against the middle closing portion (250) and an insertion hole (325). The insertion hole (325) has a widened portion (325B) that is inclined in such a manner that a distance between an opening on the pressing portion (321) side, the opening positioned on a screw-hole-forming-portion end surface (324), and the pressing portion (321) gradually becomes larger toward the slidable-contact portion (322) side. The insertion hole (325) has a diameter larger than that of the male screw (110).

Abstract: An approach controller (234) of a coordinate measuring instrument enables a position control loop (RP) and drives an actuator (133) so that a force sensor (1) is brought to a close position under a position control. When recognizing that the force sensor (1) reaches the close position, a contact controller (235) controls a switch (227) to enable a force control loop (RF) and drives the actuator (133) to bring the force sensor (1) into contact with a workpiece under a force control.
