  • Patent number: 7482772
    Abstract: In the motor stop control device according to the embodiment, a main CPU is provided which executes any one of reel stop control process 1 and the reel stop control process 2 when the stop instruction of a stepping motor occurs. In the reel stop control process 1, the main CPU changes a drive power source A, which is applied to the stepping motor rotating at the constant speed, to the drive power source B2, the voltage value of which is lower that that of the drive power source A, and executes the stop control of the stepping motor by the 2-phase excitation. In the reel stop control process 2, the main CPU changes the drive power source A, which is applied to the stepping motor rotating at the constant speed, to the drive power source B1,the voltage value of which is between the voltage values of the drive power source A and the drive power source B2, and executes the stop control of the stepping motor by the 2-phase excitation.

  • Patent number: 7199546
    Abstract: It is disclosed the motor stop control device having the stepping motor 49 as the drive source of the reel 3 on which a plurality of symbols are formed, the motor stop control device being utilized in the reel-type gaming machine 1 and stopping the stepping motor 49 corresponding to the stop instruction from an external. When the stop instruction of the stepping motor 49 occurs based on the instruction from an external, the main CPU 31 drops the voltage value added to the stepping motor which is rotating at the constant speed to the voltage value lower than such voltage value and executes the stop process of the stepping motor 49 by 2-phase excitation.

  • Patent number: 6998806
    Abstract: In the gaming machine, when the motor drive instruction to drive the motor occurs based on an instruction from an external, a constant voltage is applied to the motor and the motor is driven through the motor drive circuit 39. And when the excitation current value flowing in the motor becomes the first current value based on the constant voltage applied to the motor through the motor drive circuit 39, the voltage with on-time and off time is repeatedly applied to the motor through the motor drive circuit 39. Further, when the rotation speed of the motor becomes constant based on the voltage with on-time and off-time applied through the motor drive circuit 39, the constant voltage is applied to the motor based on the motor stop instruction through the motor drive circuit 39, thereby the motor is stopped.
