[0034] Working principle: When the device is in use, the driving member 201 drives the rotating rod 203 to rotate, thereby driving the driving rod 206 to rotate. When the driving rod 206 moves to the end position of the conveying groove 13, the driving rod 206 continues to move and the top of the driving rod 206 is squeezed by the inclined surface of the guide block 1401 to drive the plate body 207 to squeeze the first elastic member 208. At this time, the bottom of the driving rod 206 moves down and passes through the notch 1301 to abut against the side of the mahjong tile 6. The driving rod 206 continues to move to the bottom of the top plate. At this time, the end of the driving rod 206 is continuously squeezed by the top plate 14 to drive the mahjong tile 6 to move to the end of the storage frame plate 4. After that, the driving rod 206 is separated from the bottom of the top plate 14. The driving rod 206 is restored to its position under the elastic action of the first elastic member 208. Every time the driving rod 206 pushes the mahjong tile 6, it will be detected by the detection probe 9. After the mahjong tiles 6 are pushed, the cycle continues until the specified number of mahjong tiles 6 is reached, and the storage frame plate 4 is driven by the second telescopic member 303 to move downward a distance of the thickness of the mahjong tiles 6. At this time, the mahjong tiles 6 can be pushed by the driving assembly 2 to achieve the stacking and coding of the mahjong tiles 6. After the detection probe 9 detects that all the mahjong tiles 6 in a conveying trough 13 have been pushed, the driving member 201 is closed, the card-discharging door 12 is opened, and the storage frame plate 4 is driven to move above the mahjong machine desktop by the first telescopic member 302, and then the movable rod 703 is driven to move by the third telescopic member 702. At this time, the side opening 402 of the storage frame plate 4 is not in contact with the vertical plate 5, and the coded mahjong tiles 6 are pushed onto the mahjong machine desktop by the push plate 704, and then the storage frame plate 4 is driven by the first telescopic member 302 to reset and close the card-discharging door 12.
