Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of entertainment systems, and in particular to a fully automatic card dealing device for playing cards or mahjong tiles. Background Art

[0002] A fully automatic card dealing machine is a machine that can shuffle and deal cards. Currently, the fully automatic card dealing machines in the industry are mainly divided into several categories. The first category is the boot-type fully automatic card dealing machine mainly used in foreign chess and card entertainment venues. The second category is the table-type card dealing machine represented by Xuanhe, such as patent number CN222150864U, which is similar to the design concept of a fully automatic mahjong machine, with complex design and high production and maintenance costs. The third category is the small portable card dealing machine that is popular on the market. The disadvantage is that each time the cards are dealt, they need to be moved away from the middle and need to be moved back to the middle position for the next deal, which gives a poor user experience.

[0003] In the past, some manufacturers in the industry have tried to integrate the card dealing machine into the fully automatic mahjong table, but they still used a table-type card dealing machine similar to Zhejiang Xuanhe, which was based on the fully automatic mahjong machine and rebuilt a set of card dealing systems, which had a more complex structure.

[0004] In summary, the centralized chess and card entertainment equipment currently on the market is divided into two types: the first is a portable card-dealing machine, which needs to be taken away from the middle after each card is dealt, which makes the user's playing experience poor; the second is a fully automatic mahjong machine, which can only play mahjong but not cards; the third is a mahjong and poker all-in-one machine, but the two mahjong and poker hardware systems inside are independently operated and operated, with a complex structure and high production, repair and maintenance costs. Therefore, the market is in urgent need of a new card-dealing machine to solve many problems in the industry. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide an entertainment system to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, this application provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] Compared with the existing technology,

[0008] An entertainment system comprises a table body, wherein the table body comprises a lifting mechanism, and the lifting mechanism comprises a lifting motor and a lifting rod drivingly connected to the lifting motor;

[0009] The upper end of the lifting rod is provided with a card issuing mechanism, and the table body is provided with a table hole adapted to the card issuing mechanism;

[0010] The card issuing mechanism comprises: an upper shell, a rotating base and a rotating mechanism;

[0011] The upper shell and the rotating base are connected by supporting the mechanical rotating body;

[0012] The rotating mechanism comprises a rotating motor and a rotating positioning device;

[0013] The rotating motor is arranged in the rotating base and is drivingly connected with the upper housing;

[0014] A card bin is arranged inside the upper shell, the card bin is provided with a card pressing mechanism, a card feeding mechanism is arranged at the bottom of the card bin, a card inlet is arranged on one side of the bottom of the card bin, the card inlet is provided with a card separating mechanism, and a card discharging mechanism is arranged outside the card inlet.

[0015] Preferably, the card separating mechanism comprises a card separating block disposed above the card inlet and a limiting plate disposed below the card inlet, and the gap between the card separating block and the limiting plate is the thickness of a card.

[0016] Preferably, the surface of the dividing block corresponding to the limiting piece is provided with an inclined surface.

[0017] Preferably, a limiting groove adapted to the limiting piece is provided at the bottom of the card bin.

[0018] Preferably, the limiting plate is detachably connected to the limiting groove.

[0019] Preferably, the card feeding mechanism comprises a card feeding motor and a card feeding rubber roller drivingly connected to the card feeding motor, and the card feeding rubber roller is installed at the bottom of the card bin.

[0020] Preferably, the card discharging mechanism comprises a card discharging motor, a card discharging rubber roller drivingly connected to the card discharging motor, and a driven rubber roller adapted to the card discharging rubber roller.

[0021] Preferably, the driven rubber roller is arranged above the card-discharging rubber roller, and the card-discharging motor and the card-feeding motor are arranged above and in front of the driven rubber roller.

[0022] Preferably, the limiting piece passes through the card inlet and extends to between the card outlet rubber roller and the driven rubber roller.

[0023] Preferably, a circuit board is provided in the upper shell, which has a built-in program for controlling the mahjong machine and / or the card issuing mechanism, and the circuit board is respectively connected to the rotating motor, the rotating positioning device, the lifting motor, the card feeding mechanism and the card discharging mechanism.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, this application has the following technical effects:

[0025] 1. Based on the original mahjong machine, without changing any existing structure of the mahjong machine, a mahjong and card integrated machine is realized, and the function achieves the effect of one plus one being greater than two, so that this entertainment device has the entertainment functions of both mahjong machine and card machine. The cost is greatly reduced. Compared with the portable machine, it does not need to be taken away all the time. At present, the portable card dealing machine is placed in the middle to deal cards, and it needs to be manually taken away after each card is dealt. The card dealing machine of this application will automatically drop under the table after dealing cards, and there is no need to take it away like a portable card dealing machine every time, which greatly improves the user's card playing experience and has a good entertainment experience.

[0026] Since the invention of the fully automatic mahjong table in 1964, the design idea of ​​the mahjong poker integrated machine has always been to design a set of card dealing system independently on the basis of the original mahjong integrated machine, and the two operate independently and are integrated into a mahjong poker integrated machine. The shuffling, sending and dealing of the card machine have always been operated and worked on the desktop, and the structure is very complicated, the cost is high and the maintenance is difficult. Even the existing table poker machines currently on the market also use similar shuffling, sending and dealing, which have always been operated and worked on the desktop, and the structure is very complicated, the cost is high and the maintenance is difficult. Up to now, no one in the industry has modified the dice plate to make the mahjong machine have the functions of the mahjong poker integrated machine, because the space of the dice plate is very limited, and the conventional design cannot realize the independent function of the dealing machine at all. In the original dice plate of the fully automatic mahjong table and its limited space, the present application arranges and combines each mechanism in detail, so that it can realize the card dealing function, and solves the technical problems that the industry has been trying to solve but has not been able to solve for many years.

[0027] 2. This equipment is simple in function, low in cost, ingenious in structural design, and easy to repair and maintain. It no longer needs to set up a shuffling structure, but directly uses program-controlled irregular card dealing to replace the shuffling function, which greatly simplifies the structure of this equipment and has unexpected technical effects.

[0028] 3. This device has strong compatibility. Since the dice plates of most mahjong machines on the market currently have universal product sizes and universal operating procedures, this device only needs to replace the software program to transform the original fully automatic mahjong machine into an all-in-one mahjong and poker machine. Moreover, with the recent popularity of throwing eggs, more and more people have fallen in love with card games. Based on this, this application is expected to be used as the standard for future production of mahjong machines, and can also upgrade the existing mahjong machine market to have the functions of an all-in-one mahjong and poker machine, which will be a huge commercial success.

[0029] 4. The card dealing machine of the present application has strong ductility. First, it can be compatible with the dice plate of the mahjong machine, transforming the mahjong machine into an all-in-one mahjong poker machine. Second, it is externally configured with a table body and a lifting mechanism, and can be used as a separate table-type poker machine. It has a simple structure, low cost, and is easy to install, repair and maintain. Third, with a base, it can be used as a separate portable card dealing machine. The base and the card dealing machine are designed as a detachable structure, which is easy to carry and can be used in different scenarios.

[0030] 5. The dice plate is also commonly known as the mahjong machine operating plate, mahjong machine lifting plate, and mahjong machine dice plate. It is generally oval, square, hexagonal, etc., and the lower part is bowl-shaped. In such a limited space, it is necessary to fully consider the spatial arrangement of the card-dealing machine mechanism to transform it into a card-dealing machine. First, the program-controlled irregular card-dealing replaces the shuffling structure, which can save one-third of the space. Second, the vertical card-dealing is changed to the horizontal card-dealing. The motor is set above the card-dealing rubber roller and the driven rubber roller, so that the card-dealing position of the lower cover is a cone surface, and the other three sides of the lower cover are vertical surfaces within the size range of the original mahjong machine lifting plate; third, the rotating base is only equipped with a rotating motor, so that its overall structure becomes smaller as it goes down, and it is still reduced within the size range of the original mahjong machine lifting plate; fourth, the horizontal card-dealing is shorter than the vertical card-dealing, and the card-dealing speed is fast in the same time, which reduces the waiting time for card-dealing. This application fully considers the layout of each mechanism of the card-dealing machine, so that it can be embedded in the dice plate in a small space, with unexpected technical effects.

[0031] Through the above design, some structures in the entertainment system, such as the lifting mechanism of the dice plate, the existing buttons of the dice plate, the electronic screen and other control systems are shared by the mahjong machine and the card dealing machine, which greatly reduces the structural components, fully utilizes the space of the equipment, reduces the production cost, facilitates installation and maintenance, improves the user experience, and has unexpected technical effects.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0058] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0060] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0061] like Figure 1 to Figure 24 As shown:

[0062] Embodiment 1:

[0063] The card dealer is integrated in the existing dice tray of the mahjong machine and uses the existing dice tray cover. The cover is provided with various control buttons required for the mahjong machine and the card dealer.

[0064] A card compartment cover connected by a spring rotating shaft is arranged at the center of the face cover, and when the card compartment cover is closed, it is connected to the face cover by a buckle and a spring button; the card dealing machine body is arranged in a cavity formed by the lower cover of the card dealing machine and the face cover.

[0065] The card pressing mechanism of the card dealing machine adopts the simplest spring card pressing structure (not shown in the figure). When the card compartment cover is closed, the spring arranged on the card compartment cover gives a certain downward pressure to the cards in the card compartment, so that the card feeding rubber roller and the contacting cards generate sufficient friction, thereby feeding the cards and ensuring smooth card feeding.

[0066] The main body of the card dealing machine consists of an upper shell, a card feeding mechanism, a card discharging mechanism, a card separating mechanism and a rotating mechanism.

[0067] The upper shell is mainly divided into three parts, one part is used as the card compartment, and the other two parts are used as the motor compartment and the PCB board compartment.

[0068] The card feeding mechanism is composed of a card feeding motor and a card feeding rubber roller, which is used to feed the cards in the card bin to the card inlet. The card feeding rubber roller is arranged at the bottom of the card bin, and is supported on the housing by bearings on both sides.

[0069] The card feeding rubber roller is provided with flexible convex teeth in the circumferential direction to ensure the smoothness of card feeding. At the card inlet, the card separation metal block and the card outlet limit spring can cooperate to separate the cards into pieces and send them out from the card outlet.

[0070] The card separation mechanism consists of a card-dispensing limit steel sheet and a card-dispensing metal block, wherein the upper and lower positions of the card-dispensing metal block can be appropriately adjusted. By adjusting the gap between the card-dispensing limit steel sheet and the card-dispensing metal block, only one card can pass through at a time, so as to avoid issuing multiple cards at one time.

[0071] The card discharging mechanism is composed of a card discharging motor, a card discharging rubber roller and a driven rubber roller. The card discharging rubber roller and the driven rubber roller used to drive the cards to be discharging are arranged at the bottom of the motor compartment, and the two sides are supported on the housing through bearings.

[0072] The card-discharging rubber roller and the driven rubber roller cooperate to ensure that the angle and force of the cards are stable.

[0073] The card feeding motor and the card discharging motor are both arranged in the motor compartment.

[0074] The card feeding motor and the card feeding rubber roller, the card discharging motor and the card discharging rubber roller are all driven by synchronous belts, and two sets of synchronous belt transmission mechanisms and corresponding synchronous wheels are respectively arranged on both sides of the housing.

[0075] In this embodiment, the card-discharging limit steel sheet and the upper vertex of the card-feeding rubber roller are kept in a horizontal plane, so that when the cards are delivered, the card surface is horizontally delivered by the card-feeding rubber roller to the card-discharging mechanism and then to the card-discharging mechanism.

[0076] There is an installation slot at the bottom of the card bin that matches the card-discharging limit steel sheet. If you need to adapt to different card thicknesses, you only need to produce several card-discharging limit steel sheets of different thicknesses and install the corresponding card-discharging limit steel sheets according to the thickness of different cards, so that the equipment can adapt to different card thicknesses. There is no need to modify other parts of other equipment, and screw holes are reserved in the installation slot, which makes it easy to disassemble and replace the card-discharging limit steel sheet.

[0077] The thickness of the card-discharging limit steel sheet can also be fixed, and the card-discharging metal block can be designed into different sizes so that the gap between the card-discharging metal block and the card-discharging limit steel sheet is the thickness of a card, to correspond to cards of different thicknesses. At this time, you only need to replace different types of card-discharging metal blocks, which can adapt to cards of different thicknesses for dealing cards. It is easy to install, low cost, and convenient to repair and maintain, making the card-dealing machine more adaptable and able to adapt to cards of different thicknesses on the market.

[0078] It is also possible to design only one universal size for the card-dividing metal plate, and adjust the gap between the card-dividing metal block and the card-discharging limit steel sheet by adjusting the installation height of the card-dividing metal plate. A card-dividing block installation groove can be provided on the outer side of the upper wall of the card inlet of the card bin, and the card-dividing block and the card-dividing block installation groove can be detachably connected. For example, washers of different thicknesses are provided at the bottom of the card-dividing metal plate and the card-dividing block installation groove. By adjusting the washers of different thicknesses, the installation height of the card-dividing metal plate can be adjusted, thereby achieving adaptive adjustment.

[0079] Spatial coordination layout between the card distribution agency and the card issuing agency

[0080] The card-dispensing limit steel sheet and the card-separating metal block are centrally arranged at the card inlet, which does not take up space and has a good card-separating effect. It is also easy to disassemble and assemble, and is convenient for production, assembly, installation and maintenance.

[0081] The card-separating metal block is installed on the outer side of the center of the facade where the card inlet is located. This makes full use of the space between the card inlet and the card-discharging rubber roller and the driven rubber roller, and can shorten the distance from the card inlet to the card-discharging rubber roller and the driven rubber roller. In other words, the card-separating metal block does not increase the distance between the card inlet and the card-discharging mechanism, resulting in the present application being smaller and shorter than conventional card-dealing machines.

[0082] The card-discharging rubber roller and the driven rubber roller are designed with two sets of card-discharging rubber rollers and the driven rubber rollers passing through a steel shaft. The two sets of card-discharging rubber rollers and the driven rubber rollers are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides, which reserves an extension space for the card-discharging limit steel sheet. The card-discharging limit steel sheet passes through the card inlet from the card bin and extends beyond the vertical section of the card-discharging rubber roller, which improves the smoothness and stability of card feeding. Moreover, by the same principle, the space between the card inlet and the card-discharging rubber roller and the driven rubber roller is fully utilized.

[0083] Of course, when the card-discharging rubber roller and the driven rubber roller are both whole, there is still a certain amount of space between the tangents and the intersection of the two circles of the card-discharging rubber roller and the driven rubber roller. The card-discharging limiting steel sheet can extend through the section formed by the tangents to the position close to the intersection of the card-discharging rubber roller and the driven rubber roller, thereby improving the stability of the card conveying.

[0084] The rotating mechanism is arranged at the bottom of the housing, and includes a rotating motor, a synchronous belt and synchronous wheel of the rotating mechanism, and a ball bearing.

[0085] The outer steel ring of the ball bearing is fixedly connected to the main body of the card dealing machine, which is also the upper shell of the main body of the card dealing machine, and is also fixedly connected to the synchronous belt of the rotating mechanism and a group of synchronous wheels. The inner steel ring of the ball bearing is fixedly connected to the rotating base, so that a rotating motor is installed in the rotating base arranged below the main body of the card dealing machine (located below the lower cover), and the rotating motor drives the main body of the card dealing machine to rotate circumferentially through a group of synchronous belts.

[0086] A light sensor is installed below the motor compartment and at the card outlet to sense whether a card has been issued successfully, thereby controlling the number of cards issued or monitoring whether all the cards have been issued.

[0087] At the rotating mechanism position at the bottom of the card dealing machine, a Hall sensor is provided in the circumferential direction for sensing the rotation angle of the rotating mechanism, thereby controlling the card dealing orientation of the card dealing machine.

[0088] The control PCB board of the card dealing machine is integrated with the original mahjong machine control PCB board.

[0089] The PCB board is connected to the Hall sensor, light sensor, rotating motor, card feeding motor, card output motor, touch screen or display screen on the card compartment cover, control buttons on the cover, all circuit control systems of the original mahjong machine, such as the lifting motor of the lifting mechanism of the dice plate, and the actuators of the entire set of shuffling, stacking and feeding mechanisms of the mahjong machine. Since the fully automatic mahjong table or mahjong machine is existing technology, it will not be elaborated here.

[0090] In actual use, the user can arrange the back of the cards to face upwards, shuffle and stack the cards, and then put them into the card bin; set the card dealing mode, and the card dealing machine will perform operations according to the control instructions, with the rotating mechanism adjusting the card dealing direction, the card feeding mechanism feeding the cards, the card separation mechanism separating the cards, and the card discharging mechanism dealing the cards. After the cards in one direction are dealt, the rotating mechanism adjusts the card dealing direction to the next direction, and continues to perform related operations and deal the cards. This continues until all the cards in all directions are dealt.

[0091] In the above process, if the user only arranges the backs of the cards to face upwards, arranges the cards, and puts them into the card bin, but does not shuffle them, it is also possible. In this case, the pre-set software program will control the cards and deal them in an irregular manner, thereby achieving a certain degree of shuffling function.

[0092] The irregular card dealing rules of the present application can preset some irregular card dealing methods in the program of the circuit board. For example, the rules for dealing cards at all four positions are as follows: the first group of dealing position rules are 0°, 180°, 360°, 270°, and 90°, the second group of dealing position rules are 0°, 90°, 180°, 360°, and 270°, and the third group of dealing position rules are 360°, 270°, 0°, 90°, and 180°. The three groups are run alternately until the number of cards dealt at each position meets the preset requirements. The number of cards dealt at each position is a number randomly selected from 0 to 4 for dealing, thereby achieving irregular dealing. Take 0 cards, rotate to the corresponding dealing position, but do not deal cards, that is, the number of cards dealt is 0, and then rotate to the next dealing position to execute the dealing action. The above are just examples. In actual operation, various irregular methods can be built into the program of the circuit board to achieve irregular card dealing for different card numbers such as two positions, six positions, and eight positions.

[0093] Each preset number of cards dealt refers to the total number of cards dealt preset through the display screen and buttons, or the number calculated by the system by setting the total number of cards and the number of players. For example, 54 cards, 2 people play, each person needs to be dealt 27 cards, and 27 cards are the preset number of cards dealt.

[0094] In the present embodiment, the card dealing machine is powered by an external direct-plug power supply, for example, the original power supply system of the automatic mahjong machine is directly powered by the external direct-plug power supply, and no further power supply is required.

[0095] When the card dealing machine of the present embodiment is powered by an external direct-plug power supply, for example, the original power supply system of the automatic mahjong machine that directly utilizes the external direct-plug power supply is powered, the power supply of the PCB board, the Hall sensor, the light sensor, the motor, etc. requires the corresponding wires to be laid to the corresponding power-applying devices through the hollow pipes reserved by the rotating base and the card dealing machine body. Therefore, it is necessary to control through the program of the card dealing machine PCB board to rotate 360° in the opposite direction to reset each time the card dealing rotation is completed, and the card dealing is repeated in this way. In this way, the wires will not be twisted into a rope due to continuous rotation and thus disconnected. In addition, a lower cover baffle is set at a corner of the rotating base. When each card dealing rotation is completed by 360°, a rotating base baffle matching the lower cover baffle is set at a corresponding position of the upper shell of the card dealing machine body to prevent it from rotating in the same direction.

[0096] During the research and development and debugging stage, the applicant discovered that sometimes when rotating and throwing the cards, the travel of the thrown cards would become shorter. After repeated debugging, it was found that this was because the program settings performed both the card throwing action and the rotation action. Later, the applicant optimized the program. The card throwing action was only executed when the rotation action rotated to a certain direction and stopped. At this time, one card might be thrown out, or the instruction required N cards to be thrown out one by one. When the card throwing action in a certain stop direction was completely completed, the rotation action was executed. This prevented the situation where the rotation started when the cards were not completely thrown out and the card throwing action started when the rotation had not completely stopped, so as to prevent the thrown cards from having a short travel distance and falling into the mahjong machine's card pushing entrance under the card dealing machine.

[0097] By optimizing the program steps, the card dealing is smoother and the dealing stroke is consistent, which improves the stability of the card dealing.

[0098] The mainstream dice plate size on the market is that the outer diameter of the top disc is 238mm, and the bottom disc gradually shrinks to the bottom with a total thickness of 50mm. A deck of 54 cards has a width of 57mm-60mm and a length of 87-98mm. The thickness of 54 cards together is about 20mm. The structural layout of the card dealing machine under such extreme dimensions needs to fully consider the layout of different structures. The card bin deals cards horizontally, and a card-discharging rubber roller and a driven rubber roller are set outside the card-discharging port. The card-discharging motor and the card-feeding motor are arranged above the card-discharging rubber roller and the driven rubber roller. The card-splitting mechanism does not increase the space and also serves as a bridge between the card-feeding mechanism and the card-discharging mechanism. The card-discharging motor and the card-feeding motor are arranged above the card-discharging rubber roller and the driven rubber roller.

[0099] The present invention fully considers that the original dice plate is a flying saucer-shaped structure that gradually shrinks from top to bottom. Fig.18 It can be seen that the card-discharging motor and the card-feeding motor of the present application are arranged obliquely above the driven rubber roller, and the driven rubber roller is arranged just to the left of the shortest distance surface between the card-discharging motor and the card-feeding motor and the card-discharging rubber roller. This design shortens the distance between the card-discharging rubber roller and the card-discharging motor and the card-feeding motor, making the overall card-dealing machine more compact and smaller in size; the card-discharging port is located on the right side of the shortest distance surface between the card-discharging motor and the card-feeding motor and the card-discharging rubber roller. The space of this motor compartment includes the card-discharging motor and the card-feeding motor, the card-discharging rubber roller and the driven rubber roller, and the card-discharging port. This arrangement makes maximum use of the space, so that it can be adapted to the original dice plate, which is a flying saucer-shaped structure that gradually shrinks from top to bottom. Figure 2 It can be seen that the card outlet is located exactly on the inclined plane of the same size as the original dice plate.

[0100] The use process of the device of the present application is: first straighten the front and back of the playing cards into one direction, open the card compartment cover, put the cards face down into the card compartment, close the card compartment cover, and switch the device to the card mode through the control button. At this time, the lifting plate rises, and the device deals cards according to the preset number of cards and the number of people. At this time, irregular card dealing is running, and the irregular card dealing means that the position of each person is rotated without rules, and the number of cards dealt each time is irregular, until the preset number of cards for everyone is dealt, the card dealing is completed, the lifting plate is lowered into the table, and the player starts to play cards. When the player wants to play mahjong, he only needs to press the button to switch the mahjong mode. At this time, the mahjong machine mode is entered. Because the operation of the mahjong machine and the mahjong machine are existing technologies, they will not be repeated here.

[0101] The specific licensing method includes the following steps:

[0102] S1. Deal mahjong cards;

[0103] S2, dealing cards;

[0104] S3: Switch to execute S1 or S2.

[0105] In the above-mentioned S2, the card dealing is irregular.

[0106] The irregular card dealing means that the cards arrive at the predetermined position randomly or / and the number of cards dealt each time is random;

[0107] The number of cards dealt at the predetermined position is greater than or equal to one card and less than or equal to the total number of preset cards dealt at the predetermined position.

[0108] The rotation rule of the entertainment system is that after the rotation is completed by 360°, it needs to rotate 360° in the opposite direction to return to the starting point, and this cycle is repeated.

[0109] Each time the predetermined position is reached, the card dealing action is performed.

[0110] The predetermined position is N equally divided positions of 360°.

[0111] Embodiment 2:

[0112] The card dealing machine is provided with a card pressing rod instead of using a spring to press the cards. The card pressing rod includes a card pressing connecting rod and a card pressing sheet, which can be integrated or separated. When the two are separated, a rotating mechanism can be provided at the connection position of the card pressing connecting rod and the card pressing sheet. When the card pressing sheet is pressed on the cards, it always maintains a horizontal state. The card pressing sheet can be close to the length of the cards, and the width is half the width of the cards. The cards are pressed in the middle, so that the force on the cards can be uniform, which is more conducive to the smooth delivery of the cards.

[0113] A card pressing rod hook is arranged at the corresponding position of the card compartment cover, so that when the card compartment cover is opened to place the cards, the card pressing rod can be stuck on the card compartment cover. When the cards are placed, the card pressing rod can be unhooked from the card pressing rod hook and pressed onto the cards.

[0114] Embodiment 3:

[0115] The card dealing machine is provided with a storage battery for power supply, and can be powered by the storage battery only when the card dealing machine is not working, instead of using the original power supply system of the automatic mahjong machine which directly plugs in an external power supply.

[0116] The battery can be charged by using a reserved charging port or by wireless charging, that is, the battery used is a battery that is compatible with wireless charging, and a wireless charger is set in the fully automatic mahjong table integrated with the card dealing machine or a separate card dealing table that supports the card dealing machine. In this way, the battery can be continuously charged as long as the external power supply is supplied. If the lifting mechanism connected to the card dealing machine in the fully automatic mahjong table or a separate card dealing table that supports the card dealing machine is also equipped with an independent battery, even if there is no external power supply temporarily, the built-in battery can provide power, so that it can be used for card playing entertainment activities.

[0117] When the battery is used for power supply, the power supply of the part above the rotating base of the card dealing machine is the battery. At this time, the control of the rotating motor and the lifting motor of the mahjong machine can be wirelessly controlled by the program of the PCB board through wireless communication. At this time, it is not necessary to stick to the embodiment 1 that each card dealing rotation is completed by 360 degrees and then the card dealing machine needs to be reversely rotated 360 degrees to reset, and it is not necessary to set the rotating base baffle matched with the lower cover baffle of the embodiment 1. The card dealing machine can be rotated at will, which is more entertaining and has a better experience. At this time, it is only necessary to make adaptive adjustments to the program of the control PCB board of the card dealing machine.

[0118] Embodiment 4: A dustproof pad is arranged at the bottom of the card bin of the card dealing machine. Except for the flexible convex teeth of the card feeding rubber roller, the supporting frame and the card discharging limit steel sheet, the rest of the bottom is covered. This design is both beautiful and prevents dust from falling in, thereby increasing the service life of the card dealing machine and reducing the failure rate of the card dealing machine.

[0119] A number of support frames and card-discharging limit steel sheet installation parts are set at the bottom of the card bin, and their heights are slightly lower than the card-discharging limit steel sheet. On the one hand, after the card-discharging limit steel sheet is installed, it is just level with the card-discharging rubber roller, so that each card is in a horizontal state when it is delivered. On the other hand, since the height of the support frame is slightly lower than the card-delivering rubber roller, the support frame can not only support the cards to maintain the level, but also does not affect the friction provided by the card-delivering rubber roller to deliver the cards, thereby ensuring the fluency and smoothness of the card dealing.

[0120] like Figure 5As shown, the support skeleton of the present application includes 4 strips, two of which are evenly distributed behind the card feeding rubber roller, and the other two are distributed on both sides in front of the card feeding rubber roller. The mounting boss of the card discharging limit steel sheet is arranged in the center, so that the mounting boss is convenient for the installation of the card discharging limit steel sheet. At the same time, the card discharging limit steel sheet and the support skeletons on both sides can ensure that the cards pass smoothly through the card separating mechanism and enter the corresponding card discharging rubber roller and the driven rubber roller. The support skeleton saves raw materials and makes the bottom of the card bin do not need a solid bottom for support. It also plays a supporting role and reduces friction, so that the cards can be smoothly transferred from the card feeding mechanism to the card separating mechanism to the card discharging mechanism.

[0121] Embodiment 5: Since a rotating mechanism synchronous belt and synchronous wheel are provided between the rotating base and the upper shell of the main body of the card dealing machine, a certain space is formed outside the synchronous belt and synchronous wheel without any structure, resulting in severe shaking of the card dealing machine when a button is pressed during operation. Therefore, in this embodiment, three groups of supporting rollers are arranged on the outer side of the rotating wheel of the rotating base, and the supporting rollers are composed of a supporting base fixed to the rotating base and a roller that can roll around the supporting base. In this way, when the card dealing machine is operated and a button is pressed, three groups of supporting rollers are evenly distributed in a certain space formed outside the synchronous belt and synchronous wheel, so that there is no gap difference between the rotating base and the main body of the card dealing machine. When the control button is pressed, the main body of the card dealing machine will no longer shake. In addition, when the main body of the card dealing machine rotates, it can rotate freely based on the rotation of the rollers.

[0122] Embodiment 6: The three sides of the card bin are provided with grooves for fingers to insert into and take out the cards. This design conforms to the design concept of ergonomics. When the cards are put in and need to be taken out, it is more convenient to use the thumb, index finger and middle finger to take out the cards.

[0123] Example 7: The synchronous belts and synchronous wheels of the card feeding mechanism, card discharging mechanism, and rotating mechanism in Example 1 can be replaced by gear meshing transmission or chain transmission, etc., which can also achieve the technical effects of the present application.

[0124] Embodiment 8: Adding a layer of sound insulation cotton to the outside of the existing motor can reduce the noise of the card dealing machine's rotation, achieve a good mute effect, and improve the user's entertainment experience.

[0125] Embodiment 9: The card dealing machine can be provided with a through-hole slip ring to transmit power from a fixed position to a rotating position. For example, the MT series through-hole slip ring of Movlon can be used. In this way, there is no need to stick to the embodiment 1 that each card dealing rotation completes 360° and then needs to be reversely rotated 360° to reset. There is also no need to provide a rotating base baffle to match the lower cover baffle of embodiment 1. The card dealing machine can be rotated at will, which is more entertaining and has a better experience. At the same time, the program of the control PCB board of the card dealing machine can be adaptively adjusted.

[0126] Embodiment 10: The present application is not limited to the structures provided in the above embodiments. For example, the card dealing machine corresponding to the patent with authorization announcement number CN220193952U is integrated into the dice tray of the mahjong machine, and the structure of the dice tray is adaptively expanded. The two programs are interconnected, and the dice tray of the mahjong machine can also be modified in practice. Compared with the aforementioned embodiments, only the compatibility and extensibility are slightly checked. It is necessary to adaptively expand the table hole in which the mahjong machine is embedded in the dice tray to adapt to the integration of the modified card dealing machine and the dice tray. However, some structures in the entertainment system, such as the lifting mechanism of the dice tray, the existing buttons and electronic screens of the dice tray, can still be shared by the mahjong machine and the card dealing machine, which greatly reduces the structural components, makes full use of the space of the equipment, reduces the production cost, facilitates installation and maintenance, improves the user experience, and has unexpected technical effects.

[0127] Embodiment 11: The rotating mechanism of this embodiment is arranged at the bottom of the housing, and includes a rotating motor, a synchronous belt and synchronous wheel of the rotating mechanism, and a ball bearing.

[0128] The inner steel ring of the ball bearing is fixedly connected to the main body of the card dealing machine, which is also the upper shell of the main body of the card dealing machine. The outer steel ring of the ball bearing is fixedly connected to the rotating base, and is also fixedly connected to the synchronous belt of the rotating mechanism and a group of synchronous wheels. In this way, a rotating motor is installed in the upper shell of the main body of the card dealing machine, and the rotating motor drives the main body of the card dealing machine to rotate circumferentially through a group of synchronous belts. The axial movement is that because the outer steel ring of the ball bearing is fixedly connected to the rotating base, when the motor rotates, it rotates around a group of synchronous wheels corresponding to the fixed outer steel ring. At this time, the main body of the card dealing machine rotates circumferentially, and the rotating motor arranged in the upper shell also rotates together.

[0129] The biggest difference from Example 1 is that the rotating motor is set in the upper shell. If the rotating motor and gearbox of Example 1 are used directly, it can be set on the other side of the card warehouse that is symmetrical to the card feeding motor and the card discharging motor. If only the rotating motor is used and the gearbox is removed, the rotating motor can be set vertically downward, so it can be set on any other three sides except the card discharging port. Such a design allows the rotating base to be designed to be very thin, and the thickness of the card dealing machine as a whole is only a little more than a deck of cards. When other unchanged structures refer to Example 1, the overall use effect is better than that of Example 1, and the equipment becomes thinner and lighter, providing more possibilities for the further compatibility and ductility of the equipment. This embodiment can also be transformed into a desktop card dealing machine and directly used as a portable card dealing machine. Compared with the existing desktop card dealing machine, the structure of this application is simpler, the production cost is low, and the maintenance and installation are convenient. When it is directly used as a portable card dealing machine, when the rotating base is designed to be very thin, the size of this application is thinner, which will bring users a better operating experience.
