Lotto machine for random distribution of game balls (options). Types of lottery machines How the lottery machine works in Gosloto

Lottery machine- an automatic device with a mixing system that dispenses numbered balls into a receiving tray. Used in lottery drawings.

Types of lottery machines

Gravity lottery machines

This type of lottery machine uses hard rubber balls. The balls are mixed thanks to the blades moving in opposite directions. The lottery machine gives out one ball at a time. A light-sensitive sensor detects the ball rolling and prevents extra balls from falling out during the lottery.

Air flow lottery machines

To mix the balls in such devices, an air flow is used. When conducting drawings, special light balls are used. They must be loaded into the lottery machine only with special gloves so as not to disturb their weight.

Rules for checking lottery machines

In 1980, new rules for checking lottery machines were introduced for foreign lotteries:

• The lottery machine used for drawings must have an appropriate certificate.
• All equipment must be kept indoors prior to the start of the lottery.
• After each drawing, the balls must be weighed to avoid their substitution.
• In New York, lotteries use two identical sets of balls. Players must be shown one of the sets before the start of the draw.
• In Oregon, the lottery is monitored by the police.

According to the Federal Law “On Lotteries” in Russia, the following requirements are imposed on lottery equipment, including lottery machines:

• The technical characteristics of the lottery machine must ensure the random distribution of winnings when drawing the prize pool of lotteries.
• The lottery machine should not be provided with hidden (undeclared) capabilities, and it should not contain information arrays, components or assemblies that are inaccessible for examination.
• The lottery machine should not use procedures that implement algorithms that would make it possible to predetermine the result of the prize fund drawing before the start of such a drawing.

Use: drawing cash and clothing lotteries, sports lotteries, and also as a toy. The essence of the invention: the lottery machine consists of a transparent body, in the upper part of which there is a hopper. The bottom of the hopper is connected through a funnel to channels for the passage of balls. The lower part of the housing is made in the form of a linear storage tank in the form of a pipe or gutter. According to the first embodiment, the channels are formed by the front and rear walls of the housing and zigzag partitions of various configurations, ensuring free rolling of the balls down under the influence of gravity. According to the second embodiment, the channels are made of transparent tubes or gutters of various lengths and curved in a spiral and zigzag manner. Technical result: ensuring the reliability of the randomness of the release of balls while simplifying the design and increasing entertainment. 2 sp. f-ly, 2 ill.

The invention relates to accessories for games and can be used for drawing monetary and clothing lotteries, sports lotteries, and also as a toy. Various designs of lottery machines are known. The simplest designs of lottery machines, such as those, contain a mixer, in the bottom of which there is a hole in the form of a funnel, which goes into a vertical tube made of transparent material. The marked balls from the mixer are rolled out through the tube. Another type of lottery machine has a means for mixing the balls and a means for removing the balls one by one and presenting them to the public. These means have moving parts (for example, pushers), and therefore a drive and a control system. Further development of lottery machines was aimed at improving the mechanism for mixing balls, since the reliability of the randomness of the selection of balls is determined by the thoroughness of their mixing. Such designs include well-known lottery machines, mixers made in the form of rotating drums, as well as lottery machines in which the balls are mixed using an air flow. Thus, the lottery machine chosen as a prototype contains a body made of two parallel plates, the front of which is made of transparent material. The body is divided into two parts connected by a narrow channel. In the first part, the balls are mixed with an air flow, and the second part is designed to install the balls in columns and rows. This part is divided by parallel plates in such a way that the walls of the housing and the plates form vertical channels for displaying the mounted balls to the public through the front transparent plate of the housing. After the matrix of vertical channels is completely filled with balls, the latter are held in it using a special device. Thus, there is a technical contradiction: simple designs of lottery machines are not entertaining; designs that involve mixing balls using rotation mechanisms or, as in the prototype, air flow, although entertaining, have a rather complex design, moving parts, control systems and etc. The basis of the invention is the task of creating a simple lottery machine design without moving parts, in which the randomness of the sequence of ball selection is clearly demonstrated. The second task, inextricably linked with the first, is to increase entertainment. The problem posed can be solved by two design options that provide the same result in fundamentally the same way. In the first embodiment, in a lottery machine for randomly distributing game balls, containing a housing made of transparent material, with channels for receiving balls, formed by opposite walls of the housing and partitions installed between them according to the invention, a loading hopper is additionally installed in the upper part of the housing, the bottom of which has funnel-shaped outlet openings connected to the channels, while the partitions forming the channels have a zigzag shape of various configurations, ensuring free rolling of the balls under the influence of gravity, and the channel outlets are located in the lower part of the housing, made in the form of a linear storage for output balls, shaped like a tube or gutters. In the second embodiment, in a lottery machine for randomly distributing game balls, containing a housing with channels for receiving game balls, according to the invention, a loading hopper is additionally installed in the upper part of the body, the bottom of which has funnel-shaped outlet openings connected to channels made of transparent material in the form of tubes or gutters of varying lengths and curved in a spiral and zigzag manner to ensure gravity, and the channel outlets are located in the lower part of the housing, made in the form of a linear storage for outgoing balls, shaped like a tube or gutter. In fig. 1 shows the first design option; in fig. 2 - second option. The lottery machine (first version, Fig. 1) consists of a body 1, the walls of which are made of transparent material. In the upper part of the housing there is a hopper 2, the bottom of which is connected through funnels 3 to channels 4 for the passage of marked balls 5. Channels 4 are formed by the front and rear walls of the housing and zigzag partitions 6. The distance between the partitions forming one channel, the angles of inclination of individual sections of the partitions are selected so that the balls roll down freely under the influence of gravity. The lower part of the body, tapering, goes into storage 7, ending in a linear section made in the form of a pipe 8 (or gutter). In fig. Figure 2 shows the second version of the lottery machine, in which the hopper 2, through funnel-shaped outlets 3, is connected to transparent tubes (lil gutters) 6. The tubes are bent zigzag in the form of spirals, combining different bending shapes in such a way as to ensure free rolling of the balls 5 down into the storage tank 7, ending in linear section 8 (tube or gutter). If the rigidity of the tubes 6 allows supporting the hopper 2, then they perform the function of a housing, otherwise the hopper 2 is mounted on the supporting elements of the housing (in Fig. 2 not specified). When loading marked balls into hopper 2, they, through funnel-shaped outlets 3, enter channels formed in a transparent body or made in the form of transparent tubes, and as they exit the channels, they are sequentially lined up in tube 8 of the linear storage device. Unlike known analogues, which usually have two organs: an organ for forced mixing of marked balls and an organ for sequentially selecting balls from the mixed mass, in the inventive device mixing of balls as such does not occur. The randomness of the sequence of balls being released is determined by the length of the curved channels into which the balls also fall randomly from the loading hopper. At the same time, it is obvious that it is impossible to control the process, firstly, since it is visible through the transparent body (or tubes) that there are no magnets or other controlled devices braking the balls, and secondly, even if the balls have different weights, the exit sequence still determines The balls are of different channel lengths. The claimed lottery machine combines simplicity of design (lack of moving elements) with the entertainment and reliability of randomness in choosing the sequence for the release of marked balls.

Claim

1. A lottery machine for randomly distributing game balls, containing a housing made of transparent material, with channels for receiving balls formed by the opposite walls of the housing and partitions installed between them, characterized in that a loading hopper is additionally installed in the upper part of the housing, the bottom of which has funnel-shaped outlet openings connected to the channels, while the partitions forming the channels have a zigzag shape of various configurations, ensuring free rolling of the balls down under the influence of gravity, and the channel outlets are located in the lower part of the housing, made in the form of a linear storage for the output balls, having tube or trough shape. 2. A lottery machine for randomly distributing game balls, containing a housing with channels for receiving game balls, characterized in that a loading hopper is additionally installed in the upper part of the housing, the bottom of which has funnel-shaped outlet openings connected to channels made of transparent material in the form of tubes or gutters of varying lengths and curved in a spiral and zigzag manner to ensure free rolling of the balls down under the influence of gravity, and the channel outlets are located in the lower part of the housing, made in the form of a linear storage for the exiting balls, shaped like a tube or gutter.

To ensure that this process is open and honest, equipment is purchased only from the world's leading manufacturers, leaders in their industry. The Housing Lottery, Golden Horseshoe and 6 out of 36 lotteries offer impressive prize pools every week.

The winning combination in TV broadcast lotteries is determined by air flow lottery machines produced by the French company Rieu Catto. The factory began producing the first lottery machines in 1933 by order of the director of the French national lottery. Today, Rie Catto products are represented on five continents.

The company works using patented technologies. The factory has a unique, almost manual production. And quality control of the output products is ensured by modern powerful electronics.
In accordance with international standards, the equipment has all the necessary certificates. Before the start of the drawing, lottery drums are stored in special cases indoors.

Drawing using a lottery machine is a lengthy process. You already know that before each draw, the lottery machine needs to be unpacked, its technical readiness for operation must be carefully checked, and a draw committee must be formed. Draws for the “Housing Lottery”, “Golden Horseshoe” and “6 out of 36” do not take place so often - once a week. Therefore, drawing using a lottery machine is suitable for them.

Before the drawings begin, members of the drawing committee, which may include studio guests, must check the entire set of balls and ensure that all balls are loaded into the discharge tubes.

When conducting draws, light balls are used. They are manufactured to within one hundredth of a gram from solid rubber. The number is placed on the ball 12 times. This way you can easily read it, no matter which side the ball lands on. Any influence of the external environment on the ball is excluded.

All balls in the set are regularly measured and weighed to ensure fair play. Thus, the probability of a ball hitting the lottery machine carriage is the same for the entire set.

The lottery machine is launched from the central control panel. From the loading hopper - these are six plastic pipes - the balls enter the sphere of the lottery drum. Compressors force air currents into the sphere, and the balls mix chaotically.

At a certain time of the draw, the suction starts on the central tube. The ball that is closest to this “trap” is sucked in and rises up. And then it is dumped into the receiving tray using a special mechanism.

A prerequisite for a lottery machine is the transparency of the ball release mechanism, carriage, drum and receiving tray. Therefore, for the production of parts, a transparent material is used - plexiglass. Participants can control the entire process of choosing a winning combination.

The peculiarity of our lottery machines is that during drawings they are completely isolated from any outside influence. The “human factor” cannot affect the operation of the automation. And before each edition, we check all the props: their condition, degree of wear, and any damage. Anything that could affect the accuracy and quality of the drawing is excluded.

You often ask why the lottery machine is not used in all lotteries. It depends on how often the draws for a particular lottery take place. Let us remind you that the draws are held at clearly designated times. This “schedule”, that is, the frequency of the drawings, is established by the lottery operators within the framework determined by the federal law “On Lotteries”.

Draws for other lotteries take place much more frequently. For example, in Gosloto “6 out of 45” draws are held twice a day, in “Gosloto “7 out of 49” - six times a day, and in "Rapido" - every 15 minutes every day! Lottery tickets purchased at the same time in Murmansk, Novosibirsk and Makhachkala appear at the same moment in the general database of lottery bets. Immediately after the drawing, you can accurately determine the number of winners and the amount of winnings for each of them. These lotteries use a random number generator to determine the winning combination. We will talk about it in one of our next reports.

In accordance with Part 3 of Article 14.27 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, refusal to pay, transfer or provide winnings, as well as violation of the procedure and (or) terms for payment, transfer or provision of winnings provided for by the terms of the lottery, entails a warning or the imposition of an administrative fine on legal entities - from fifty thousand to one hundred thousand rubles.
According to Part 1 of Article 71 of the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, the arbitration court evaluates evidence according to its internal conviction, based on a comprehensive, complete, objective and direct examination of the evidence available in the case.
In accordance with Article 26.2 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, evidence in a case of an administrative offense is any factual data on the basis of which the judge, body, official in charge of the case establishes the presence or absence of an administrative offense event, the guilt of the person brought to administrative proceedings liability, as well as other circumstances relevant to the correct resolution of the case. These data are established by the protocol on the administrative offense, the explanations of the person against whom the case of the administrative offense is being conducted. The use of evidence obtained in violation of the law is not permitted.
The case materials establish that the applicant did not comply with the requirements of the legislation of the Russian Federation on Lotteries.
Under these circumstances, the fact of the defendant’s violations of the established payment deadlines is considered by the court to be established and confirmed by the case materials.
Thus, the actions of the defendant established the corpus delicti of an administrative offense under Art. 14.27 part 3 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.
There is also the defendant’s guilt in committing it, since in accordance with paragraph 2 of Art. 2.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, he had the opportunity to comply with the rules and norms, for violation of which this Code or the laws of a constituent entity of the Russian Federation provides for administrative liability, but this person did not take all measures depending on him to comply with them.
On the day the court decision was made, the statute of limitations for bringing the defendant to administrative liability, established by Art. 4.5 Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, not expired. The procedure for bringing the defendant to administrative responsibility was followed by the applicant and is not disputed by the defendant.
Grounds for application of Art. 2.9 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation and the court does not have a release of the defendant from administrative liability.
Consequently, there are legal grounds for bringing the defendant to administrative liability on the basis of Art. 14.27 part 3 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.
The court verified and assessed all the defendant’s arguments, but they cannot serve as a basis for refusing to satisfy the demands, since they are not supported by evidence and are based on an incorrect interpretation of both the legislation of the Russian Federation and the conditions of the lottery. Thus, the court presented the defendant’s arguments with reference to the need to pay within the time limits specified in paragraphs 9.8, 9.9. The conditions are not accepted, since, in the opinion of the court, these clauses are not applicable to the case under consideration, which follows from the literal interpretation of the conditions.
Under these circumstances, the court considers the event of an administrative offense established, for the commission of which the law provides
administrative responsibility; the fact that it was committed by a person in respect of whom a protocol on an administrative offense was drawn up; existence of grounds for
drawing a protocol on an administrative offense; the presence of powers of the administrative body that compiled the protocol.

Parts 1 and 3 of Art. 23.1. Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation consideration of cases of administrative offenses provided for in Parts 1, 2 of Art. 14.27 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation falls within the competence of the arbitration court.
Thus, the court found that the application was justified and should be granted.
The court did not establish any mitigating or aggravating circumstances in the case.
As follows from the grounds of the stated requirements, the applicant did not refer to the presence of aggravating circumstances when the defendant committed the specified administrative offense and due to the fact that the defendant was brought to administrative responsibility for the first time under this article of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, the court considers it possible to impose a punishment according to the lower limit of the administrative fine specified in Art. 14.27 Part 3 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, i.e. in the amount of 50,000 rubles.

Hello!

My name is Ivan Melnikov! I am a graduate of the National Technical University “KhPI”, Faculty of Engineering and Physics, specialty “Applied Mathematics”, a happy family man and just a fan of games of chance. Since childhood, I have been interested in lotteries. I have always wondered by what laws certain balls fall out. Since I was 10 years old, I have been recording lottery results and then analyzing the data.

Sincerely,

Ivan Melnikov.

1. Mathematical odds of winning

   • Simple calculation with factorials

The most common lotteries in the world are games of luck such as “5 out of 36” and “6 out of 45”. Let's calculate the chance of winning the lottery using probability theory.

An example of calculating the possibility of receiving a jackpot in the “5 out of 36” lottery:

It is necessary to divide the number of free cells by the number of possible combinations. That is, the first digit can be selected from 36, the second from 35, the third from 34, and so on.

Therefore, here is the formula:

Number of possible combinations in a “5 out of 36” lottery = (36*35*34*33*32) / (1*2*3*4*5) = 376,992

The chance of winning is 1 in almost 400,000.

Let's do the same for a lottery like 6 in 45.

Number of possible combinations = “6 out of 45” = (45*44*43*42*41*40) / (1*2*3*4*5*6) = 9,774,072.

Accordingly, the chance of winning is almost 1 in 10 million.

• A little about probability theory

According to a long-known theory, each ball in each subsequent search has an absolutely equal chance of falling out compared to the others.

But not everything is so simple, even according to probability theory. Let's take a closer look at the example of tossing a coin. The first time we got heads, then the next time the probability of getting tails is much higher. If heads come up again, then next time we expect tails with even greater probability.

With the balls coming out of the lottery machines, it's about the same story, but a little more complicated and with a more significant number of variables. If one ball is drawn 3 times and the other is drawn 10 times, then the probability of the first ball being drawn will be higher than that of the second. It is worth noting that this law is diligently violated by the organizers of some lotteries, which change lottery machines from time to time. A new sequence appears in each new lottery machine.

Some organizers also use a separate lottery machine for each ball. Thus, it is necessary to calculate the probability of each ball falling out in each individual lottery machine. On the one hand, this makes the task a little easier, on the other hand, it complicates it.

But this is just a theory of probability, which, as it turns out, doesn’t really work. Let's see what secrets there are, based on dry science and statistical data accumulated over decades.

1. Why doesn't probability theory work?

   • Less than ideal conditions

The first thing worth talking about is the calibration of lottery machines. None of the lottery machines are perfectly calibrated.

The second caveat is that the diameters of lottery balls are also not the same. Even differences of the slightest fraction of millimeters play a role in the frequency of a particular ball falling out.

The third detail is the different weight of the balls. Again, the difference may not seem significant at all, but it also affects the statistics, and significantly.

• Sum of winning numbers

If we look at the statistics of winning numbers in a “6 out of 45” lottery, we will notice an interesting fact: the sum of the numbers that players bet on ranges between 126 and 167.

The sum of the winning lottery numbers for “5 out of 36” is a slightly different story. Here the winning numbers add up to 83-106.

• Even or odd?

What numbers do you think are most often found on winning tickets? Even? Odd? I can tell you with complete confidence that in the “6 out of 45” lotteries these numbers are equally divided.

But what about “5 out of 36”? After all, you need to choose only 5 balls; there cannot be an equal number of even and odd balls. So here it is. Having analyzed the results of lotteries of this type over the last four decades, I can say that slightly, but still more often, odd numbers appear in winning combinations. Especially those that contain the number 6 or 9. For example, 19, 29, 39, 69 and so on.

• Popular groups of numbers

For a lottery of the “6 to 45” type, we conditionally divide the numbers into 2 groups - from 1 to 22 and from 23 to 45. It should be noted that in winning tickets the ratio of numbers belonging to the group is 2 to 4. That is, either the ticket will contain 2 numbers from the group from 1 to 22 and 4 numbers from the group from 23 to 45 or vice versa (4 numbers from the first group and 2 from the second).

I came to a similar conclusion when analyzing the statistics of lotteries like “5 out of 36”. Only in this case the groups are split up a little differently. Let's designate the first group that includes the numbers from 1 to 17, and the second the one that contains the remaining numbers from 18 to 35. The ratio of numbers from the first group to the second in winning combinations in 48% of cases is 3 to 2, and in 52 % of cases – on the contrary, 2 to 3.

• Is it worth betting on numbers from past draws?

It has been proven that in 86% of cases, a new drawing repeats a number that has already appeared in previous drawings. Therefore, you just need to follow the draws of the lottery you are interested in.

• Consecutive numbers. To choose or not to choose?

The chance that 3 consecutive numbers will appear at once is very low, less than 0.09%. And if you want to bet on 5 or 6 consecutive numbers at once, there is practically no chance. Therefore, choose different numbers.

• Numbers with a single step: win or lose?

You should not bet on numbers that appear in the same sequence. For example, you definitely don’t need to choose step 2 and place a bet with this step. 10, 13, 16, 19, 22 are definitely a losing combination.

• More than one ticket: yes or no?

It’s better to play once every 10 weeks with 10 tickets than once a week with one. And also play in groups. You can win a big cash prize and split it between several people.

1. World lottery statistics

   • Mega millions

One of the most popular lotteries in the world was carried out according to the following principle: you need to choose 5 numbers out of 56, as well as 1 out of 46 for the so-called golden ball.

For 5 matched balls and 1 correctly named golden ball, the lucky winner receives the jackpot.

The remaining dependencies are shown in the table:

Statistics of dropped regular balls for the entire duration of the above lottery draws.

Statistics of golden balls drawn throughout the Mega Millions drawings.

The most frequently drawn combinations in the lottery are shown in the table below:

• Powerball lottery where more than a dozen lucky people have managed to hit the jackpot. You must select 7 main game numbers and two Powerballs.

1. Winners' stories

   • Lucky compatriots

Evgeny Sidorov from Moscow received 35 million in 2009, before that Nadezhda Mekhametzyanova from Ufa hit the jackpot of 30 million. “Russian Lotto” sent another 29.5 million to Omsk to the winner, who did not want to identify himself. In general, winning jackpots is a good habit of Russian people

• 390 million US dollars in one hand

In the lottery we already talked about, Mega Millions, a lucky winner who wished to remain anonymous won $390 million. And this is far from a rare case. In the same lottery in 2011, two people managed to hit the jackpot, which at that time consisted of an amount of 380 million. The cash prize was divided into two parts and awarded to people who guessed the winning numbers.

A pensioner from South Carolina decided to participate in the Powerball lottery and won 260 million, which he decided to spend on the education of his children, and also bought a house, several cars for the family, and then went traveling.

1. conclusions

So, here is a summary of the most effective rules, following which you are sure to win:

1. The sum of all the numbers you bet on on a lottery ticket must be calculated using the following formula:

Amount = ((1 + n)/2)*z + 2 +/- 12%

n – maximum bet number, for example, 36 in a “5 out of 36” lottery

z – the number of balls you bet on, for example 5 for the “5 out of 36” lottery

That is, for “5 out of 36” the amount will be like this:

((1+36)/2)*5 + 2 +/-12% = 18,5*5+2 +/-12% = 94,5 +/-12%

In this case, from 94.5 + 12% to 94.5 – 12%, that is, from 83 to 106.

1. Bet equally on even and odd numbers.
2. Divide all the numbers into two large groups in half. The ratio of the number of numbers on a winning ticket is 1 to 2 or 2 to 1.
3. Follow the statistics and bet on the numbers that came out in previous draws.
4. Don't bet on numbers with one step.
5. It’s better to play less often, but buy several tickets at once, and also get together with friends and relatives.

In general, be brave! Follow my rules, place bets, analyze statistics and win!
