In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2 (A), the floor sheet 124 is sheeted on the board member (corresponding to a floor sheet support member 122). A fixing member 128 airtightly fixes around the floor sheet 124. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 2 (B), a wall 129 is provided around the board member, the floor sheet 124 can be airtightly fixed to the wall 129 Of course side surface member is provided on side of the frame 120, airtight space is formed by frame 120, side surface members, floor sheet 124. The floor sheet 124 will swell out in bag shape by sending out air to the floor sheet 124 airtightly supported by the fixing member 128 or wall 129 from exterior. in the present embodiment, a square-formed floor sheet 124 is used. Above floor sheet correspondings to the floor sheet of this invention. The floor sheet 124 can be placed on the coupling members 120b, without placing the floor sheet support member 122,

Furthermore, an air sending means such as a blower 126 for sending out air within the floor sheet 124 is provided to the frame 120. In the present embodiment, the blower 126 is fixed outside of the frame 120. And the floor sheet support member 122 is provided with a small hole for sending air to above floor sheet 124 from the blower 126. The air outlet provided to the blower 126 can couple to the small hole by an air flowpath, The floor mechanism for game devices 100 is configured by forming the floor sheet 124 as described above.

The liquids such as water are put into the space formed by floor sheet 124 and floor sheet support member 122, a plurality of small ball can be put on the surface of the water. The floor sheet 124 employed raw material of the translucency in the present example. By configuring as above, the floor sheet 124 is expanded by sending out air to the space formed by the floor sheet 124 and floor sheet support member 122 by blower 126. Users can jump up and down on the floor sheet blown by sending air while viewing the small ball floating on water because the floor sheet 124 is formed of translucent raw material as described above.

Furthermore, the water bag formed by injecting liquids such as the water into transparence sheet formed in the bag shape can be inserted within above floor sheet 124. At this time, by adjusting quantity of air outgoing of blower 126, when users step on the floor sheet 124, the air capacity in floor sheet 124 is kept so that the users touch the water bag. The floor mechanism for game devices as configured above can give a feeling as if the users play with water.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 2 (A), the edge of floor sheet 124 can be surrounded with downfall prevention member 130. For example, a plurality of cylinder is formed, and by placing each cylinder in the rectangle (square shape, in the present example) and by coupling an adjacent cylinder by welding, oval annular downfall prevention member 130 is formed. A floor mechanism for game devices 100 comprising the downfall prevention member 130 is formed by surrounding the floor sheet 124 by downfall prevention member 130 formed as above, Of course the sheet forming the downfall prevention member 130 is provided with a small hole for sending air from the blower 126, and air is sent from the blower 126 via a said small light guide hole. The downfall prevention member 130 can be formed of elastic raw material such as urethane. The downfall prevention member 130 correspondings to the cushioning material of this invention.

Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 3, space can be formed in the bag shape floor sheet 124 by forming the floor sheet 124 into bag shape. Of course, a small hole for sending air from blower 126 is formed to the bag shape floor sheet 124. The edge of two pieces of laminated sheets is fixed, the bag shape floor sheet 124 can be formed by sending air between both sheets, An edge of bag shape floor sheet 124 can be joined and can simply fix if it swell out in bag shape by sending air.

It is desirable that the floor sheet support member 122 can be formed of elastic organ when the bag shape floor sheet 124 is employed. This is because it can prevent the bag shape floor sheet 124 is swollen downward. In accordance with exemplary embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3 (B), the floor sheet support member 122 is formed of net member 122a. That is, a net member 122a for supporting the bag shape floor sheet 124 is placed on the upper part of the frame 120 configured as above For example, a corners and side portion of the net member 122a is coupled with rectangular frame 120 by rope or other members. In accordance with exemplary embodiments, the net member 122a corresponds to the floor sheet support member 122, Any shape of frame 120 can be used, if the net can be coupled, a top view circle shape and top view oval configuration can be used.

The bag shape floor sheet 124 is placed on the net member 122a of frame 120 configured as above. Of course a blower 126 for sending air to the baa shape floor sheet 124 is provided to any of the frame 120, Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 2 (A), the edge of floor sheet 124 can be surrounded with downfall prevention member 130 For example, a plurality of cylinder is formed by same raw material of the floor sheet 124. And by placing each cylinder in the rectangle (square shape, in the present example) and by coupling an adjacent cylinder by welding, oval annular downfall prevention member 130 is formed. A floor mechanism for game devices 100 comprising the downfall prevention member 130 is formed by surrounding the floor sheet 124 by downfall prevention member 130 formed as above. Of course the sheet forming the downfall prevention member 130 is provided with a small hole for sending air from the blower 126, and air is sent via the small hole. The downfall prevention member 130 can be formed of elastic raw material such as urethane. The up-and-down motion of the strut can be prevented by fixing a cast-in anchor in the strut.

The floor sheet 124 can be formed by laminating two pieces of sheets with different modulus of elasticity. Here, a modulus of elasticity is a proportion coefficient showing relationship between distortion and stress, it is physical properties showing the resistance for disruption. The material that elastic modulus is high and, the material which have small distortion regarding stress, is referred to as being relatively hard material, the material that elastic modulus is low is referred to as being relatively soft material. That is, when elastic modulus is high, the material is hard to distort. The floor sheet 124 is formed by stacking the two above sheets. That is the floor sheet 124 is formed by placing the sheet with high elastic modulus to the outside that is upside position and by placing the sheet with low elastic modulus to the inside that is downside position, among different sheet of the elastic modulus. Deformation of the floor sheet 124 can be lowered even if large quantities of air from blower is sent because the sheet with low elastic modulus is protected by the sheet with high elastic modulus.

A plurality of the floor mechanism for game devices 100 as described above, can be provided. On this occasion, one air sending means can send out air to all floors sheet 124 by airtightly connecting the airtight space formed by each floor sheet 124 and frame 120.

Preferred Embodiment 2

In the preferred embodiment 1, the fixing member or wall 129 is placed to the floor sheet support member 122, and air is sent into the space formed by the wall part 129 and floor sheet 124. Furthermore air is sent into the bag shape floor sheet 124 formed by the floor sheet 124 into bag shape. In the present embodiment, referring to FIG. 4, a method for fixing the floor sheet 124 and frame 120 is described further in detail.

At first an open topped boxiness floor sheet 144 as shown in FIG. 4 is formed. For example, in the present example, a boxiness floor sheet 144 can be formed by rising the edge of the flat sheet. All the corners and sides of the flat sheet is erected. The parts erected as described above is referred to as a erected sheet 144a. Airtight space is formed by sandwiching the erected sheet 144a between the corner of frame 120, as will hereinafter be described. Therefore, the size of the boxiness floor sheet 144 is adjusted so that the corners of the erected sheet 144a is sandwiched between the corners of the frame 120.

As long as the edge of the flat sheet is a standing state, a boxiness floor sheet 144 can be configured by forming the erected sheet by welding a belt-shaped sheet on the edge of the flat sheet. Furthermore, the erected sheet 144a can be formed in the position spaced from an edge of the flat sheet. As discussed below, the outside of the corners of the boxiness floor sheet 144 is put inside of the corners of the frame 120. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4 (A), the erected sheet 144a can be formed to the position spaced from the corners of the fiat sheet. For example, it is desirable to be formed at the position spaced to the degree of coating the external diameter of the strut 120a configuring frame 120. Parts of coating the strut 120a can be cut.

The boxiness floor sheet 144 configured as above is sandwiched in the upper of the inside of the corner of frame 120. For example, in the present example as shown in FIG. 4 (B) and FIG. 4 (D), plurality of angle type clamp 145 capable of being fixed to the inside of corners of the frame 120 is formed. And in the state the surface of the erected sheet 144a of the boxiness floor sheet 144 is facing downwardly, the erected sheet 144a of the boxiness floor sheet 144 is put between the angle type clamp 145 and the inside of the corner of the frame 120. At this time, it is preferable that the inside of the corner of the erected sheet 144a of the boxiness floor sheet 144 comes in contact with the inside of the corner of the frame 120. Of course the sides portion of the boxiness floor sheet 144 is sandwiched by a clamp. Only a side portion is sandwiched with a clamp, and clearance formed in the corners can be filled with.

In above configuration, we explained about configuration of fixing the boxiness floor sheet 144 to the top view rectangle shaped frame 120 In the configuration, configuration for fixing the boxiness floor sheet 144 in the top view rectangle frame 120 was explained, however the frame 120 can be a shape except rectangle. For example, various shapes of the frame 120 can be used such as a top view triangle shape or a top view pentagon shape. The boxiness floor sheet 144 is configured by forming the erected sheet 144a on the flat sheet to the position corresponding to the shape of the frame 120. Furthermore, the boxiness floor sheet 144 is fixed to inside of the corners of the frame 120 shaped above by an angle type clamp 145 having the angle corresponding to the inside of the corners of the frame 120 shaped above, As described above, airtight space is formed of the boxiness floor sheet 144 and the side surface members by fixing the boxiness floor sheet 144 to inside of the corners of the frame 120. Steam-tight space can be formed by fixing the inside of corner of the boxiness floor sheet 144 to the outside of the corners of the frame 120,

The bottom face can be provided in the airtight space configured above. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, The bottom face member 146 is placed on the undersurfaces of the frame 120, and the bottom face member 146 can be fixed to the frame 120. For prevention of falling, a fall prevention sheet 160 such as nets can be placed in the upper of the frame.

Preferred Embodiment 3

In preferred embodiment 2, the fixing member or wall 129 is placed to the floor sheet support member 122, air is sent into the space formed by the wall part 129 and floor sheet. Furthermore air is sent into the bag shape floor sheet 124 formed by the floor sheet 124 into bag shape. In this exemplary embodiment, we further explain about a floor mechanism for game devices 100 using the floor sheet 124, with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6, FIG. 7 from FIG. 1. Because configuration of the frame 120 placing the floor sheet 124 is the same as the detailed description of the preferred embodiment 1, illustration description is omitted.

As shown in FIG. 6 (A), a board member (corresponding to the floor sheet support member 122 in this invention) is placed on the frame 120 explained with detailed description of the preferred embodiment 1, the sides (it is the four sides of frame 120) of the frame 120 are airtightly fixed using side surface members, Of course, the floor sheet is put on the floor sheet support member 122, air is sent out to the floor sheet 124 by an air sending means of the blower 126, etc. That is, air is sent out to the airtight space formed by the frame 120, side surface members and floor sheet 124 by above blower 126.

In the present embodiment, a plurality of ball is placed in the space formed by the floor sheet and floor sheet support member 122. Furthermore, a ball cycling blower 126a is placed in the lower parts of the floor sheet support member 122, air is sent out to the center of the floor sheet. And the plurality of ball is circulated through by sending of air by the ball cycling blower 126a. That is, the ball circulates through the floor sheet by sending of air from the cycling blower 126a when the ball approaches the neighborhood of the center. Of course, an opening for receiving the air stream from the cycling blower 126a is formed to the floor sheet and floor sheet support member 122 Furthermore, balls in the floor sheet 124 become easy to gather in center of the floor sheet 124 by forming the floor sheet support member sloping to the center. For example, the slope can be easily configured by forming the floor sheet support member 122 using net.

Alternatively, a plurality of ball is placed in the bag shape floor sheet for forming the floor sheet by two pieces of sheet, Again in this case, the plurality of ball circulates by the air stream of the ball cycling blower 126a placed in the lower part of the floor sheet support member as above. Of course, an opening for receiving the air stream from the cycling blower is formed to the floor sheet and floor sheet support member 122

The ball 250 in floor sheet 124 can circulate wildly by using the ball cycling mechanism 200 as shown in FIG, 7 (A). That is, the ball cycling mechanism 200 of this present example includes an air sending device such as blower 126, and a flowpath. The flowpath comprises an air outlet side flowpath 220 for directly receiving a flow of air sent out by the air outlet of blower 126, comprises a bail receiving side flowpath 230 for receiving the ball 250 in the floor sheet 124, and comprises a ball sending side flowpath 240 for ejecting the ball 250 received by the bail receiving side flowpath 230 to the floor sheet 124.

Of course, among the flowpath, it is necessary for cycling to comprise the inside diameter that ball 250 which wants to make made to float about wildly can pass to floor seat 124 as for at least ball acceptance side stream road 230 and ball sending area flowpath 240. Each flowpath should be able to pass a flow of the air from air sending area flowpath 220, and each flowpath does not have to communicate mutually. That is, each flowpath can be placed at specified distance.

In the present embodiment, an air sending side flowpath 220 sent out from the blower 126 and a ball sending side flowpath 240 are linked into a linear shape, and a small flowpath continuously connects to the linear shaped flowpath as the ball acceptance side flowpath 230. Furthermore, without continuously connecting with the air sending side flowpath 220 and the ball sending side flowpath 240, the ball sending side flowpath 240 is next to the outlet of the air sending side flowpath 220 with the condition that is squeezed so that outlet side opening diameter of the air sending side flowpath 220 became small. Force of the air from the blower 126 is increased by reducing the outlet side opening diameter of the air sending side flowpath 220. Flow of the air from blower 126 can be enlarged by the outlet side of air sending side flowpath 220 adjoining the entrance side of bat sending side flowpath 240. The ball cycling mechanism 200 is configured by comprising the air sending side flowpath 220, ball sending side flowpath 240, and the ball receiving side flowpath 230 for the blower 126. The blower 126 for sending out air to the floor sheet 124 is required, in addition to the blower 126 provided to the ball cycling mechanism 200.

The ball cycling mechanism 200 configured as above is placed below the floor sheet 124. In accordance with exemplary embodiments, as shown in FIG. 7 (B), the bail cycling mechanism 200 is placed in the airtight space formed by the floor sheet 124 and side surface members. At this time, the entrance of the ball receiving side flowpath 230 of the ball cycling mechanism 200 is placed in the neighborhood of the substantially center of the floor sheet 124. And the exit of the ball sending side flowpath of the ball cycling mechanism 200 is placed to the edge of the floor sheet 124 The ball 250 gathers in the center of the floor sheet 124 easily. Therefore, the ball 250 gathered in the center of the floor sheet 124 can be received effectively by placing the entrance of the ball receiving side flowpath in the center of the floor sheet 124.
