Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of poker machine manufacturing, specifically relating to a poker card splitting and double-outlet card feeding device and its poker machine. Background Technology

[0002] Poker is a popular form of entertainment today. A poker game involves shuffling, arranging, and dealing the cards. Arranging and dealing are crucial steps in the game. During the arranging process, cards can easily become mixed up, with front and back sides mixed up. Dealing requires distinguishing between front and back cards and flipping front cards face down before dealing them.

[0003] Patent document CN211585175U discloses a poker machine and its card dealing device and conveying mechanism. The conveying mechanism has a conveying channel, with a card dispensing mechanism and a card flipping mechanism connected to its two ends, respectively. The machine is long and narrow, occupying a large space. The conveying channel contains a recognition element that identifies the front and back of the playing cards, and separate dispensing channels are provided for the identified front and back cards. A flipping channel is also provided for the front-facing cards, which rotate the passing cards 180°. During this process, because the end of the flipping channel has a certain convex curvature, the passing cards are bent under the action of the flipping pressure roller, resulting in a complex structure and easy wear and tear on the playing cards.

The flipping mechanism on the card passing layer flips the face-up playing cards to face-down playing cards, and then transfers them to the first exit card dispensing mechanism.

[0118] Step S4A: Playing cards are dealt by the first exit card-dispensing mechanism;

[0119] And / or,

[0122] Preferably,

[0123] Step S2 further includes:

[0124] In step S21A, if the identified playing card is face up, the push-pull rod of the card-splitting mechanism pushes the card-splitting end of the card-splitting mechanism to align with the card-receiving and card-delivering layer of the card-receiving and card-delivering mechanism that receives face-up playing cards.

[0125] In step S22A, the card-distributing mechanism sends face-up playing cards to the receiving and distributing layer that receives face-up playing cards.

[0126] In step S21B, if the identified playing card is face down, the push-pull rod of the card-splitting mechanism pushes the card-splitting end of the card-splitting mechanism to align with the card-receiving and card-delivering layer of the card-receiving and card-delivering mechanism that receives face-down playing cards.

[0127] In step S22B, the card-distributing mechanism sends face-down playing cards to the receiving and delivering layer that receives face-down playing cards.

[0128] Preferably,

[0130] In step S3A1, the playing cards on the receiving and delivering layer that receive face-up playing cards are transferred to the upstream section of the card-passing layer of the card-passing and flipping mechanism. The card-entry rod detection sensor at the card-entry end of the card-passing layer detects whether the face-up playing cards are fully loaded onto the flipping rod of the flipping mechanism located in the initial state in the upstream section of the card-passing layer. If yes, proceed to step S3A2; otherwise, continue with step S3A1.

[0131] In step S3A2, the flipping motor of the flipping mechanism starts the flipping lever, causing the face-up playing card to flip in the air by more than 120° but less than 180° so that it becomes a face-down playing card and falls onto the downstream section of the card transfer layer at the same time.

If yes, proceed to step S3A5; otherwise, continue to step S3A3.

[0136] In step S3A5, the flipping motor of the flipping mechanism restarts the flipping lever, causing the flipping lever to continue to rotate more than 180° in the air and return to the upstream section of the card transfer layer and be in the initial state, in preparation for step S3A1.

[0148] Step S1 specifically involves the front and back recognition sensor above the card-splitting bracket of the card-splitting mechanism detecting and recognizing whether the playing cards on the card-feeding component of the card-splitting mechanism are face up or face down.

[0149] Preferably,

[0150] Before step S3A1, there is also a pre-step S3A0, which detects whether the flipping lever of the flipping mechanism is in the initial state;

[0151] Preferably, the step S3A0 of detecting whether the flipping lever of the flipping mechanism is in its initial state specifically includes:

[0160] In step S4A1, the card-dispensing wheel of the first outlet card-dispensing mechanism rolls, causing the playing cards to move towards the card-dispensing end of the first card-dispensing base;

[0161] In step S4A2, the card-rubbing wheel at the card-playing end of the first card-playing base rolls, causing the playing cards to completely leave the first card-playing base.

[0162] Preferably,

[0163] Step S4A further includes:

[0164] In step S4A3, the first card-dispensing detection sensor near the card-dispensing end of the first card-dispensing mechanism detects whether the very end of the playing card on the first card-dispensing base has completely left the first card-dispensing base; if yes, then continue to step S1; if no, then continue to sub-steps S4A1 and S4A2.

[0165] Preferably,

[0166] The specific steps involved in the second exit card-distributing mechanism in step S4B, which involves distributing playing cards, are as follows:

[0167] In step S4B1, the card-dispensing wheel of the second outlet card-dispensing mechanism rolls, causing the playing cards to move towards the card-dispensing end of the second card-dispensing base;

[0170] Step S4B further includes:

[0171] In step S4B3, the second card-dispensing detection sensor near the card-dispensing end of the second card-dispensing mechanism detects whether the very end of the playing card on the second card-dispensing base has completely left the second card-dispensing base; if yes, then continue to step S1; if no, then continue to sub-steps S4B1 and S4B2.

[0172] The positive and progressive effects of this invention are as follows:

[0173] 1) This invention designs a receiving and delivering layer for face-up playing cards and a receiving and delivering layer for face-down playing cards. The card dispensing end of the card dispensing mechanism can selectively switch and align with either the receiving and delivering layer for face-up or face-down playing cards. This allows face-up and face-down playing cards to be sent separately to different receiving and delivering layers and issued from different first and second exit dispensing mechanisms, achieving dual-exit card delivery and further improving the efficiency of subsequent card delivery and dealing, while reducing wear and tear on the playing cards.

[0174] 2) The present invention also designs a transmission mechanism with two motors and three mechanical transmission components, which can completely drive the entire playing card splitting and dual-outlet card feeding device. The two motors drive and send the playing cards face up and face down independently. In the case of dual-outlet card feeding, the overall driving efficiency is improved and the driving cost is saved.

[0175] 3) The receiving and delivering layer for face-up playing cards and the receiving and delivering layer for face-down playing cards together constitute the receiving and delivering mechanism of the present invention. The card dispensing end of the card dispensing mechanism can be selectively switched and aligned with the receiving and delivering layer for face-up playing cards or the receiving and delivering layer for face-down playing cards, so that face-up and face-down playing cards can be sent separately to different receiving and delivering layers. The card dispensing mechanism and the receiving and delivering mechanism are set up separately, and the card dispensing and receiving and delivering are implemented in a targeted manner, making the overall structure simpler.

[0176] 4) This invention designs a receiving and dispensing layer for receiving face-up playing cards and a second outlet dispensing device that is directly aligned with the dispensing end of the receiving and dispensing layer for receiving face-up playing cards. It only receives and dispenses face-up playing cards, and the dispensing path is simple and completely separate from face-up playing cards, which further improves the efficiency of dispensing playing cards.

[0177] 5) The card-dispensing mechanism designed in this invention has a card-dispensing end that can move back and forth between a first position at a high position and a second position at a low position, and a card-passing component for delivering cards. At the same time, the raising and lowering of the card-dispensing end is controlled by a front and back recognition sensor signal installed above the card-dispensing mechanism. Thus, after recognizing the front and back information of the playing cards, it can respond to dispensing cards from different positions. The response driving structure is simple.

[0192] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the content disclosed in this specification. The present invention can also be implemented or applied through specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

[0193] It should be noted that in the description of this invention, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features, nor should they be construed as limiting the specific scope of protection of this invention.

[0194] like Figure 1 As shown, the poker card splitting and dual-outlet card delivery device of the present invention includes a base plate 10, a card splitting mechanism 20 mounted on one side of the base plate 10, a card receiving and delivery mechanism 30 aligned with the card dispensing end of the card splitting mechanism 20, a card delivery and flipping mechanism 40 aligned with the card receiving and delivery mechanism 30, a first outlet card dispensing mechanism 50, a second outlet card dispensing mechanism 60, and a transmission mechanism 70 for providing power drive and transmission. Continuing as... Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the second outlet card dispensing mechanism 60 and the first outlet card dispensing mechanism 50 are positioned opposite each other on the outer ends of the base plate 10, with a card receiving and dispensing mechanism 30 and a card dispensing and flipping mechanism 40 arranged parallel to each other in between. The card receiving and dispensing mechanism 30 is further divided into a card receiving and dispensing layer 31 for receiving face-up playing cards and a card receiving and dispensing layer 32 for receiving face-down playing cards. The card receiving end of the card dispensing and flipping mechanism 40 is aligned with the card dispensing end of the card receiving and dispensing layer 31 of the card receiving and dispensing mechanism 30, the card receiving end of the first outlet card dispensing mechanism 50 is aligned with the card dispensing end of the card dispensing and flipping mechanism 40, and the card receiving end of the second outlet card dispensing mechanism 60 is aligned with the card dispensing end of the card receiving and dispensing layer 32 of the card receiving and dispensing mechanism 30 for receiving face-down playing cards. The card-dispensing end of the card-dispensing mechanism 20 can be selectively switched to align with either the card-receiving and card-dispensing layer 31 (for face-up playing cards) or the card-receiving and card-dispensing layer 32 (for face-down playing cards). In addition, the card-dispensing mechanism 20 is installed on one side of the base plate 10 adjacent to the first and second outlet card-dispensing mechanisms. The card-receiving and card-dispensing mechanism 30 and the card-dispensing and card-flipping mechanism 40 are installed opposite each other in the middle of the base plate 10. An integrated frame 11 is provided in the middle of the base plate 10, and the card-receiving and card-dispensing mechanism 30 and the card-dispensing and card-flipping mechanism 40 are fixed to the integrated frame 11 in the middle of the base plate 10. The integrated frame 11 is sandwiched between the first outlet card-dispensing mechanism 50 and the second outlet card-dispensing mechanism 60.

[0195] In this example, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3A and Figure 3BAs shown, the card-splitting mechanism 20 includes a card-splitting bracket 21, a card-feeding component 22, a front / back recognition sensor 23, and a push-pull rod 24. The card-feeding end 211 of the card-splitting bracket 21 is located on one side of the base plate 10. The card-dispensing end 212 of the card-splitting bracket 21 can be pushed upwards to a first high position and retracted downwards to a second low position by the push-pull rod 24 below the card-splitting bracket 21. That is, the card-dispensing end 212 of the card-splitting bracket 21 can selectively rise and fall between the first and second positions to selectively align with the receiving and dispensing layer 31 (for receiving face-up playing cards) or the receiving and dispensing layer 32 (for receiving back-up playing cards) of the receiving and dispensing mechanism 30 for card delivery. One end of the card-feeding component 22 is located at the card-feeding end 211 of the card-splitting bracket 21, and the other end is located at the card-dispensing end 212 of the card-splitting bracket 21, for conveying playing cards. The card feeding component 22 includes a first card feeding wheel axle 221, a second card feeding wheel axle 222, a first card feeding wheel 223 fixed on the first card feeding wheel axle 221, a second card feeding wheel 224 fixed on the second card feeding wheel axle 222, and a card dispensing conveyor belt 225 with its two ends respectively fitted onto the first card feeding wheel 223 and the second card feeding wheel 224. The first card feeding wheel axle 221 and the second card feeding wheel axle 222 are fixed at their two ends relative to each other on the side walls of the card dispensing bracket 21, and are respectively located at the card dispensing inlet end 211 and the card dispensing outlet end 212 of the card dispensing bracket 21. In one example, either the first card-feeding wheel shaft 221 or the second card-feeding wheel shaft 222 can be directly driven to the motor shaft of the motor (not shown in the figure), or it can be driven to the motor shaft via the transmission mechanism 70. In this example, as shown in the figure, the first card-feeding wheel shaft 221, which is fixed to the card-feeding end 211 of the card-feeding bracket 21, is driven to the transmission mechanism 70, thereby driving the entire card-feeding component 22 to rotate, further realizing the transmission of playing cards.

[0196] At the same time, continue as Figure 2 , Figure 3A and Figure 3BAs shown, the transfer of playing cards on the card-splitting mechanism 20 is controlled by a front / back recognition sensor 23 and a push-pull rod 24. The front / back recognition sensor 23 is identifiable to the playing cards on the card-feeding component 22. Furthermore, the front / back recognition sensor 23 is fixed to the upper connecting plate on the upper side of both side walls of the card-splitting bracket 21 and is located above the card-feeding component 22. It can identify the front and back of the playing cards transferred on the card-feeding component 22 and signal to control the extension and retraction of the push-pull rod 24. The push-pull rod 24 is telescopically supported on the lower connecting plate on the lower side of both side walls of the card-splitting bracket 21 and is close to the card-dispensing end 212 of the card-splitting bracket 21. The push-pull rod is driven by a solenoid valve to extend and retract, and can further drive the card-dispensing end 212 of the card-splitting bracket 21 to move back and forth between the first position and the second position. Continuing as shown in the diagram, the first position at the high position is aligned with the receiving and delivering layer 32 that holds the face-up playing cards; that is, the first position is used to play face-up playing cards. The second position at the low position is aligned with the receiving and delivering layer 31 that holds the face-up playing cards; that is, the second position is used to play face-up playing cards. Alternatively, the first position at the high position can also be used to play face-up playing cards, in which case the first position is aligned with the receiving and delivering layer 31 that holds face-up playing cards, and the second position at the low position can be used to play face-up playing cards, in which case the second position is aligned with the receiving and delivering layer 32 that holds face-up playing cards. In summary, in this example, continuing as shown in the figure, when the face-up / face-down recognition sensor 23 recognizes that the playing card on the card delivery component 22 is a face-down playing card, the face-up / face-down recognition sensor 23 signals to control the push-pull rod to drive the solenoid valve to extend the push-pull rod 24, which in turn drives the card dispensing end 212 of the card dispensing bracket 21 to rise to the first high position and align with the card receiving and delivery layer 32 that receives the face-down playing card, so that the face-down playing card on the card delivery component 22 can be sent to the card receiving and delivery layer 32 that receives the face-down playing card. When the face-up / face-down recognition sensor 23 detects that the playing card on the card delivery component 22 is face-up, the sensor 23 signals to control the push-pull rod, which in turn drives the solenoid valve to retract the push-pull rod 24. This retracts the push-pull rod 24, causing the card dispensing end 212 of the card dispensing bracket 21 to descend to its lowest second position and align with the card receiving and delivery layer 31 that receives face-up playing cards. At this point, the face-up playing card on the card delivery component 22 can be sent to the card receiving and delivery layer 31. In addition, as follows... Figure 3AAs shown, the card-splitting mechanism 20 also has a card-splitting pressing shaft 25 and a card-splitting pressing wheel 26. The card-splitting pressing shaft 25 is installed on the card-splitting dispensing end of the card-splitting bracket 21 and is arranged parallel to and spaced above the second card-feeding wheel shaft 222. The card-splitting pressing wheel 26 passes through the card-splitting pressing shaft 25 and is spaced one playing card's distance from the second card-feeding wheel 224 on the second card-feeding wheel shaft 222, so that the card-splitting pressing wheel 26 and the second card-feeding wheel 224 cooperate to dispense only one playing card from the card-feeding component 22 to the receiving and dispensing layer 31 of the receiving and dispensing mechanism 30, which receives face-up playing cards, or the receiving and dispensing layer 32, which receives back-up playing cards, at a time.

[0197] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5A As shown, the card receiving and delivery mechanism 30 consists of upper and lower layers. In this example, the upper layer is the card receiving and delivery layer 32 that receives cards face down, and the lower layer is the card receiving and delivery layer 31 that receives cards face up. Of course, conversely, the upper layer could be the card receiving and delivery layer 31 that receives cards face up, and the lower layer could be the card receiving and delivery layer 32 that receives cards face down (not shown in the figure). The card receiving and delivery layer 31 that receives cards face up has a first front card receiving and delivery roller 311, a second front card receiving and delivery roller 312 that is parallel to the first front card receiving and delivery roller 311 and spaced at a certain distance, and a front card receiving and delivery belt 313 with one end sleeved on the first front card receiving and delivery roller 311 and the second end sleeved on the second front card receiving and delivery roller 312. Meanwhile, the first front-facing card-receiving and feeding roller 311 and the second front-facing card-receiving and feeding roller 312 are mounted parallel to each other at both ends of the integrated frame 11 and on one side near the second outlet card-dispensing mechanism 60. Similarly, the card-receiving and feeding layer 32 that receives back-facing playing cards also has a first back-facing card-receiving and feeding roller 321, a second back-facing card-receiving and feeding roller 322 that is parallel to the first back-facing card-receiving and feeding roller 321 and spaced a certain distance apart, and a back-facing card-receiving and feeding belt 323 with one end sleeved on the first back-facing card-receiving and feeding roller 321 and the second end sleeved on the second back-facing card-receiving and feeding roller 322. And in this example, continuing as... Figures 2 to 5AThe first and second front-facing card-receiving and feeding rollers 311 and 312 of the card-receiving and feeding layer 31, which receives face-up playing cards, are arranged parallel to the first and second back-facing card-receiving and feeding rollers of the card-receiving and feeding layer 32, which receives back-facing playing cards. At this time, the card-feeding ends of the card-receiving and feeding layer 31 and the card-feeding ends of the card-receiving and feeding layer 32, which receive face-up playing cards, are located on the same side of the card-receiving and feeding mechanism 30, and are perpendicular to the axial direction of the first front-facing card-receiving and feeding rollers 311 and 312, as well as the first and second back-facing card-receiving and feeding rollers 321 and 322. Simultaneously, the ends of the first and second back-facing card-receiving and feeding rollers 321 and 322, and the ends of the first and second front-facing card-receiving and feeding rollers 311 and 312, are respectively arranged in an upper and lower parallel manner at both ends of the integrated frame 11 on the side near the second outlet card-dispensing mechanism 60. In another example (not shown), when the first and second front-facing card-receiving rollers of the card-receiving and feeding layer 31 that receives face-up playing cards and the first and second back-facing card-receiving rollers of the card-receiving and feeding layer 32 that receives back-up playing cards are arranged perpendicularly to each other, the card-feeding end of the card-receiving and feeding layer 31 that receives face-up playing cards and the card-feeding end of the card-receiving and feeding layer 32 that receives back-up playing cards are both located on the same side of the card-receiving and feeding mechanism 30. Furthermore, depending on the two forms where the card-receiving and feeding layer 31 that receives face-up playing cards and the card-receiving and feeding layer 32 that receives back-up playing cards are perpendicular, the card-feeding end of the card-receiving layer 31 that receives face-up playing cards and the card-feeding end of the card-receiving layer 32 that receives back-up playing cards are either both perpendicular to the axial direction of the first and second front-facing card-receiving rollers or both perpendicular to the axial direction of the first and second back-facing card-receiving rollers. In this example, as can be seen from the card-splitting mechanism 20, the card-dispensing end 212 of the card-splitting mechanism 20 selectively aligns with the receiving and dispensing layer 31 (which receives face-up playing cards) and the receiving and dispensing layer 32 (which receives face-down playing cards), switching back and forth. That is, when different faces of playing cards are detected, the card-splitting mechanism 20 sends the cards to the corresponding receiving and dispensing layer 31 (which receives face-up playing cards) or the receiving and dispensing layer 32 (which receives face-down playing cards) of the receiving and dispensing mechanism 30. Both the card receiving and delivery layer 32, which receives the back-facing playing cards, and the card receiving and delivery layer 31, which receives the front-facing playing cards, are driven and connected to the transmission mechanism 70. The card-dispensing end of the card receiving and delivery layer 32, which receives the back-facing playing cards, is aligned with the card-infeeding end of the second outlet card dispensing mechanism 60, while the card-dispensing end of the card receiving and delivery layer 31, which receives the front-facing playing cards, is aligned with the card-infeeding end of the card-dispensing and flipping mechanism 40. In other words, the front-facing playing cards can enter the card-dispensing and flipping mechanism 40 through the card receiving and delivery layer 31, which receives the front-facing playing cards.

[0198] like Figure 2 , Figures 5A-6As shown, the card-feeding and flipping mechanism 40 includes a card-passing layer 41 and a card-flipping mechanism 42 that can flip face-up playing cards to face-down playing cards. The card-dispensing end of the card-receiving and card-feeding layer 31, which receives face-up playing cards, is aligned with the card-receiving end of the card-passing layer 41. The card-flipping mechanism 42 is located in the middle of the card-passing layer 41. The card-flipping mechanism 42 includes a rotating shaft 421 vertically disposed in the middle of the card-passing layer 41, a plurality of card-flipping rods 422 spaced apart and vertically disposed on the rotating shaft 421, a card-flipping motor 423, and a card-clamping block 424. One end of the rotating shaft 421 is connected to the motor shaft of the card-flipping motor 423 and can be driven to rotate by the card-flipping motor 423, which can further drive the card-flipping rods 422 to flip. The card-clamping block 424 is also fixedly disposed on the rotating shaft 421 and is arranged parallel to and spaced apart from the corresponding plurality of card-flipping rods 422. At the same time, the card-clamping block 424 and the corresponding card-flipping rods 422 form a limiting groove that can hold and restrict the movement of playing cards. In addition, continue as Figure 5D and 5E As shown, the card-flipping mechanism 42 also includes a flip positioning sensor 425, a first sensing plate 426, a second sensing plate 427, and a sleeve 428. The flip positioning sensor 425 is fixedly mounted on a side frame at one end of the base plate 10. The first sensing plate 426 and the second sensing plate 427 need to rotate in sync with the rotation of the shaft 421 and the card-flipping lever 422, and switch back and forth by rotating to be sensed by the flip positioning sensor 425 to determine the position state of the shaft 421 and the card-flipping lever 422 after rotation. The first sensing plate 426 and the second sensing plate 427 are relatively far apart on the sleeve 428, so the sleeve 428 can be fixed on the shaft 421 or fixedly mounted on the motor shaft of the flipping motor 423.

[0199] like Figure 5A As shown, the card-passing layer 41 has a card-feeding end card-passing shaft 411, a card-feeding end card-passing wheel 412 sleeved on the card-feeding end card-passing shaft 411, a card-discharge end card-passing shaft 413, a card-discharge end card-passing wheel 414 sleeved on the card-discharge end card-passing shaft 413, and several card-passing wheel belts 415. The card-feeding end card-passing shaft 411 is located at the card-feeding end of the card-passing layer 41 and is aligned with the card-discharge end of the receiving and delivering layer 31, which receives face-up playing cards. The card-discharge end card-passing shaft 413 is located at the card-discharge end of the card-passing layer 41, and both the card-feeding end card-passing shaft 411 and the card-discharge end card-passing shaft 413 are located at both ends of the integrated frame 11 and close to the first outlet card-discharge mechanism 50. One end of the card-passing wheel belt 415 is sleeved on the card-feeding end card-passing wheel 412, and the other end is sleeved on the card-discharge end card-passing wheel 414. Furthermore, the rotating shaft 421 of the card-flipping mechanism 42 is located between and parallel to the card-passing shaft 411 at the card-in end and the card-passing shaft 413 at the card-out end. The card-flipping rod 422 of the card-flipping mechanism 42 and the card-passing wheel 415 of the card-passing layer 41 are arranged alternately to facilitate the flipping rod 422 flipping and passing through the card-passing wheel 415. In addition, continuing as... Figure 2As shown, the card-passing layer 41 also has a card-entry rod detection sensor 416 and a card-exit rod detection sensor 417. The card-entry rod detection sensor 416 is located at the card-in end of the card-passing layer 41, which is aligned with the card-exit end of the receiving and delivering layer 31 that receives face-up playing cards. The card-entry rod detection sensor 416 is used to detect whether the face-up playing cards conveyed by the receiving and delivering layer 31 have completely entered the flipping rod 422 of the flipping mechanism 42. When the cards have completely entered the flipping rod 422 of the flipping mechanism 42 and are engaged with the card clamping block 424, the flipping mechanism 42 is driven, and the rotating shaft 421 drives the flipping rod 422 to cooperate with the card clamping block 424, flipping the face-up playing cards in the air by approximately less than 180°, such as 160° to 170°, so that the face-down playing cards fall to the downstream section of the card-passing layer 41, and then continue to be conveyed by the card-passing layer 41 to the card-exit end. The card dispensing rod detection sensor 417 is installed at the card dispensing end of the card transfer layer 41. The card dispensing end of the card transfer layer 41 is aligned with the card receiving end of the first exit card dispensing mechanism 50. The card dispensing rod detection sensor 417 is used to detect whether the end of the flipped playing card has completely left the flipping rod 422. The card dispensing end of the card transfer layer 41 is aligned with the card receiving end of the first exit card dispensing mechanism 50.

[0200] In this example, continue as follows Figure 5B As shown, the first card-dispensing mechanism 50 includes a first card-dispensing base 51, a first card-dispensing shaft 52, a first card-dispensing wheel 53 mounted on the first card-dispensing shaft 52, a first card-rubbing shaft 54, a first card-rubbing wheel 55 mounted on the first card-rubbing shaft 54, and a first card-pressing frame 56. The base plate of the first card-dispensing base 51 has a first card-dispensing wheel cavity and a first card-rubbing wheel cavity. The card-infeeding end of the first card-dispensing base 51 is connected to the card-dispensing end of the card-flipping and card-delivering mechanism 40. Both ends of the first card-dispensing shaft 52 and the first card-rubbing shaft 54 ​​are located on the first card-dispensing base 51. The first card-dispensing shaft 52 is closer to the card-infeeding end of the first card-dispensing base 51, and the first card-rubbing shaft 54 ​​is closer to the card-dispensing end of the first card-dispensing base 51. The upper surface of the first card-dispensing wheel 53 protrudes from the first card-dispensing wheel cavity, and the upper surface of the first card-rubbing wheel 55 protrudes from the first card-rubbing wheel cavity. The playing cards from the card-passing layer 41 of the card-flipping mechanism 40 are continuously conveyed to the first exit card-dispensing mechanism 50. They are first conveyed by the first dealing wheel 53 to the first rubbing wheel 55, that is, from the receiving end to the dispensing end of the first exit card-dispensing mechanism 50. Then, the first rubbing wheel 55 at the dispensing end dispenses the playing cards. Simultaneously, the first card-pressing frame 56, spaced apart from the first rubbing wheel 55 at the dispensing end of the first card-dispensing base 51, is one playing card's thickness thick, ensuring that only one playing card is dispensed at a time at the dispensing end of the first exit card-dispensing mechanism 50.

[0201] In this example, continue as follows Figure 4As shown, the second card-dispensing mechanism 60 has the same structure as the first card-dispensing mechanism 50, and also includes a second card-dispensing base 61, a second card-dispensing shaft, a second card-dispensing wheel 62 mounted on the second card-dispensing shaft, a second card-rubbing shaft, a second card-rubbing wheel 63 mounted on the second card-rubbing shaft, and a second card-pressing frame 64. The lower parts of the first card-dispensing base 51 of the first card-dispensing mechanism 50 and the second card-dispensing base 61 of the second card-dispensing mechanism 60 are located at the two opposite outer ends of the base plate 10. The card-infeeding end of the second card-dispensing mechanism 60 can receive the face-up playing cards delivered from the card-dispensing end of the card-receiving and card-delivering layer 32 that receives face-up playing cards. The second card-dispensing base 61 has a second card-dispensing wheel cavity and a second card-rubbing wheel cavity on its base plate. The card-feeding end of the second card-dispensing base 61 is connected to the card-dispensing end of the receiving and delivering layer 32 that receives face-up playing cards. Both ends of the second card-dispensing shaft and the second card-rubbing shaft are located on the second card-dispensing base 61, with the second card-dispensing shaft located near the card-feeding end and the second card-rubbing shaft located near the card-dispensing end. The upper surface of the second card-dispensing wheel 62 protrudes from the second card-dispensing wheel cavity, and the upper surface of the second card-rubbing wheel 63 protrudes from the second card-rubbing wheel cavity. Playing cards that have passed through the card-dispensing end of the receiving and delivering layer 32 that receives face-up playing cards are continuously conveyed to the second exit card-dispensing mechanism 60. They are first conveyed by the second card-dispensing wheel 62 to the second card-rubbing wheel 63, that is, from the card-feeding end to the card-dispensing end of the second exit card-dispensing mechanism 60, and then the second card-rubbing wheel 63 at the card-dispensing end dispenses the playing cards. Meanwhile, the second card-pressing frame 64, spaced apart from the second card-rubbing wheel 63 at the card-dispensing end of the second card-dispensing base 61, is separated from the second card-rubbing wheel by the thickness of a playing card, ensuring that only one playing card is dispensed at a time at the card-dispensing end of the second exit card-dispensing mechanism 60. In addition, a first card-dispensing detection sensor and a second card-dispensing detection sensor (not shown) are respectively installed at the card-dispensing end of the first card-dispensing base 51 of the first exit card-dispensing mechanism 50 and the card-dispensing end of the second card-dispensing base 61 of the second exit card-dispensing mechanism 60, to detect whether all playing cards entering the first and second exit card-dispensing mechanisms have been dispensed. Continuing... Figure 2 As shown, the integrated frame 11 is also sandwiched between the first card-dispensing base 51 and the second card-dispensing base 61. The two ends of the first and second back card-dispensing rollers of the card-receiving and card-feeding mechanism 30 and the two ends of the first and second front card-dispensing rollers are respectively arranged in a parallel manner at both ends of the integrated frame 11 and close to the side of the second card-dispensing base 61. The card-feeding end card-feeding shaft 411 and the card-dispensing end card-feeding shaft 413 of the card-feeding and card-flipping mechanism 40 are arranged at both ends of the integrated frame 11 and close to the side of the first card-dispensing base 51.

[0202] In this example, such as Figure 1 As shown, the card-sorting mechanism 20, the card-receiving and card-delivering mechanism 30, the card-delivering and card-flipping mechanism 40, and the first and second exit card-dispensing mechanisms 50 and 60 are all powered by the transmission mechanism 70. Figures 2-6As shown, the transmission mechanism 70 includes a first motor 71, a second motor 72, a first mechanical transmission component 73, a second mechanical transmission component 74, and a third mechanical transmission component 75. The first motor 71 and the second motor 72 are respectively located on opposite outer sides of the integrated frame 11. Both the first mechanical transmission component 73 and the third mechanical transmission component 75 are driven by the first motor 71. The first mechanical transmission component 73 is also connected to the card receiving and feeding layer 31 (for receiving face-up playing cards), the card feeding and flipping mechanism 40 (for passing cards), and the first exit card dispensing mechanism 50. The card receiving and feeding layer 31, the card feeding and flipping mechanism 40, and the first exit card dispensing mechanism 50 are arranged laterally in a linear fashion, that is, parallel to the first mechanical transmission component 73 in the same lateral direction. The first mechanical transmission component 73 includes a first motor synchronous pulley 731, a front-facing card receiving and feeding synchronous pulley 732, a card transfer synchronous pulley 733, a first card dealing synchronous pulley 734, a first card rubbing synchronous pulley 735, and a first synchronous belt 736. The first motor synchronous pulley 731 is mounted on the motor shaft of the first motor 71 and can be driven by the first motor 71. The front-facing card receiving and feeding synchronous pulley 732 is located at the side end of either the first front-facing card receiving and feeding roller 311 or the second front-facing card receiving and feeding roller 312 of the card receiving and feeding layer 31 that receives face-up playing cards. The card transfer synchronous pulley 733 is located at the side end of either the card feeding end card transfer shaft 411 or the card dispensing end card transfer shaft 413 of the card transfer layer 41. In this example, the face-up card receiving and delivery synchronous wheel 732 is located on one side of the first face-up card receiving and delivery roller 311 near the card delivery layer 41. Thus, the first mechanical transmission component 73 is driven to connect with the card receiving and delivery layer 31, which receives face-up playing cards, via the face-up card receiving and delivery synchronous wheel 732. The card delivery synchronous wheel 733 is located on one side of the card delivery shaft 411 at the card input end of the card delivery layer 41. Thus, the first mechanical transmission component 73 is driven to connect with the card delivery layer 41 via the card delivery synchronous wheel 733. In addition, the first card dealing synchronous wheel 734 is located on the side of the first card dealing shaft 52 of the first exit card dispensing mechanism 50; the first card rubbing synchronous wheel 735 is located on the side of the first card rubbing shaft 54 ​​of the first exit card dispensing mechanism 50. The first mechanical transmission component 73 is also driven to connect with the first exit card dispensing mechanism 50 via the first card dealing synchronous wheel 734 and the first card rubbing synchronous wheel 735. Meanwhile, the aforementioned first motor synchronous pulley 731, front-facing card receiving and delivery synchronous pulley 732, card transmission synchronous pulley 733, first card dealing synchronous pulley 734, and first card rubbing synchronous pulley 735 are all mutually driven and connected to the first synchronous belt 736.Specifically, the first synchronous belt 736 is fitted onto the first motor synchronous pulley 731 and driven to rotate by the first motor 71. One end of the first synchronous belt 736 is also fitted onto the front-facing card-receiving and feeding synchronous pulley 732, and the other end is fitted onto the first card-rubbing synchronous pulley 735. It is tensioned sequentially on the card-passing synchronous pulley 733 and the first card-dealing synchronous pulley 734, which are also driven by the first motor 71. The first synchronous belt 736 simultaneously drives the front-facing card-receiving and feeding synchronous pulley 732, the card-passing synchronous pulley 733, the first card-dealing synchronous pulley 734, and the first card-rubbing synchronous pulley 735 to rotate, ultimately simultaneously driving the card-receiving and feeding layer 31 (which receives face-up playing cards), the card-passing and flipping mechanism 40's card-passing layer 41, and the first exit card-dispensing mechanism 50. Of course, this is to ensure the smooth dispensing of face-up playing cards and prevent card jamming or blocking. The outer diameter of the first dealing synchronous wheel 734 is smaller than the outer diameter of the passing synchronous wheel 733, which is smaller than the outer diameter of the front-facing card receiving and delivery synchronous wheel 732. That is, the linear velocity of the first dealing wheel 53 of the first exit card dispensing mechanism 50 is greater than the linear velocity of the passing wheel belt 415 of the card dispensing and flipping mechanism 40, which is greater than the linear velocity of the front-facing card receiving and delivery wheel belt 313 of the card receiving and delivery layer 31 that receives face-up playing cards. In a preferred example, the ratio of the linear velocity of the front-facing card receiving and delivery wheel belt 313 to the linear velocity of the passing wheel belt 415 to the linear velocity of the first dealing wheel 53 of the first exit card dispensing mechanism 50 is 1:2:3.

[0203] like Figure 2 and Figure 3A As shown, the third mechanical transmission component 75 is also driven by the first motor 71, and is also connected to the card-dispensing mechanism 20. The third mechanical transmission component 75 includes a card-dispensing and feeding synchronous gear 751, a card-dispensing and feeding drive shaft 752, and a third synchronous belt 753. The card-dispensing and feeding synchronous gear 751 can be located on the side end of the first card-feeding wheel shaft 221 or the second card-feeding wheel shaft 222 of the card-feeding component 22 of the card-dispensing mechanism 20, continuing as... Figure 2 and Figure 3AAs shown, in this example, the card-dispensing and card-feeding synchronous gear 751 is mounted on the first card-feeding wheel shaft 221 near the card-feeding end of the card-dispensing mechanism 20, thereby achieving a drive connection with the card-dispensing mechanism 20. One end of the card-dispensing and card-feeding transmission shaft 752 has a transmission gear 7521 that meshes perpendicularly with the card-dispensing and card-feeding synchronous gear 751, so that the card-dispensing and card-feeding synchronous gear 751 can be driven to rotate by the transmission gear 7521. The other end has a transmission shaft synchronous pulley 7522. In this example, the transmission shaft synchronous pulley 7522 is driven to the first motor 71 through a third synchronous belt 753. One end of the third synchronous belt 753 is sleeved on the transmission shaft synchronous pulley 7522, and the other end is sleeved on the branch pulley 7311 of the first motor synchronous pulley 731. The branch pulley 7311 and the first motor synchronous pulley 731 are parallel to each other and pass through the motor shaft of the first motor 71, so that they can be driven to rotate simultaneously by the first motor 71. In summary, the first motor 71 can simultaneously drive the first mechanical transmission component 73 and the third mechanical transmission component 75, and through the first mechanical transmission component 73 and the third mechanical transmission component 75, it can simultaneously drive the card-splitting mechanism 20, the card-receiving and card-delivering layer 31 that receives face-up playing cards, the card-passing layer 41 of the card-passing and flipping mechanism 40, and the first exit card-dispensing mechanism 50.

[0204] Continue as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the second mechanical transmission component 74 is driven by the second motor 72. The second mechanical transmission component 74 is also connected to the card receiving and feeding layer 32 (which receives the face-up playing cards) and the second card dispensing mechanism 60. The card receiving and feeding layer 32 and the second card dispensing mechanism 60 are also arranged in a horizontal linear pattern. Specifically, as shown... Figure 4As shown, the second mechanical transmission component 74 includes a second motor synchronous pulley, a back-side card receiving and feeding synchronous pulley 741, a second card dealing synchronous pulley 742, a second card rubbing synchronous pulley 743, and a second synchronous belt 744. The second motor synchronous pulley is mounted on the motor shaft of the second motor 72 and can be driven by the second motor 72. The back-side card receiving and feeding synchronous pulley 741 can be located at the side end of either the first back-side card receiving and feeding roller 321 or the second back-side card receiving and feeding roller 322 of the card receiving and feeding layer 32 that receives face-up playing cards. In this example, the back-side card receiving and feeding synchronous pulley 741 is located at the side end of the second back-side card receiving and feeding roller 322 near the second outlet card dispensing mechanism 60. Thus, the second mechanical transmission component 74 achieves a driving connection with the card receiving and feeding layer 32 that receives face-up playing cards through the back-side card receiving and feeding synchronous pulley 741. In addition, the second card-dealing synchronous wheel 742 is located at the side end of the second card-dealing shaft of the second outlet card-dispensing mechanism 60, and the second card-rubbing synchronous wheel 743 is located at the side end of the second card-rubbing shaft of the second outlet card-dispensing mechanism 60. The second card-dealing synchronous wheel 742 and the second card-rubbing synchronous wheel 743 also realize the driving connection between the second mechanical transmission component 74 and the second outlet card-dispensing mechanism 60. At the same time, the aforementioned second motor synchronous wheel, the back card-receiving and card-feeding synchronous wheel 741, the second card-dealing synchronous wheel 742 and the second card-rubbing synchronous wheel 743 are all mutually drivingly connected to the second synchronous belt 744. Specifically, as shown in the figure, the second synchronous belt 744 is sleeved on the second motor synchronous wheel and driven by the second motor 72. At the same time, one end of the second synchronous belt 744 is sleeved on the back card-receiving and card-feeding synchronous wheel 741, and the other end is sleeved on the second card-rubbing synchronous wheel 743, with the middle tensioned on the second card-dealing synchronous wheel 742. Thus, driven by the second motor 72, the second synchronous belt 744 simultaneously rotates the back-side card-receiving and feeding synchronous wheel 741, the second card-dealing synchronous wheel 742, and the second card-rubbing synchronous wheel 743, ultimately simultaneously driving the card-receiving and feeding layer 32 that receives face-up playing cards and the second outlet card-dispensing mechanism 60. To ensure that face-up playing cards are dealt smoothly without causing card jamming or blocking, the outer diameter of the second card-dealing synchronous wheel 742 is smaller than the outer diameter of the back-side card-receiving and feeding synchronous wheel 741. That is, the linear velocity of the second card-dealing wheel 62 of the second outlet card-dispensing mechanism 60 is greater than the linear velocity of the back-side card-receiving and feeding wheel belt 323 of the card-receiving and feeding layer 32 that receives face-up playing cards. In a preferred example, the ratio of the linear velocity of the back-side card-receiving and feeding wheel belt 323 to the linear velocity of the second card-dealing wheel 62 of the second outlet card-dispensing mechanism 60 is 2:3.

[0205] In this example, such as Figures 7-9 As shown, another objective of this invention is to provide a method for bidirectional card distribution of playing cards, in which multiple sensors are used, and the bidirectional distribution of playing cards (both front and back) is controlled based on the signals from these sensors. Specific steps include:

[0206] Step S1: Identify the front and back of the playing cards on the card-splitting mechanism; specifically, the front and back recognition sensor above the card-splitting bracket of the card-splitting mechanism detects whether the playing cards on the card-feeding component of the card-splitting mechanism are facing up or facing down.

[0207] Step S2: Based on the identified front and back sides of the playing cards, send the playing cards from the card-splitting mechanism to the corresponding card-receiving and card-delivering layer of the card-receiving and card-delivering mechanism.

[0208] Specifically, step S2 further includes:

[0209] In step S21A, if the identified playing card is face up, the push-pull rod of the card-splitting mechanism pushes the card-splitting end of the card-splitting mechanism to align with the card-receiving and card-delivering layer of the card-receiving and card-delivering mechanism that receives face-up playing cards.

[0210] In step S22A, the card-distributing mechanism sends face-up playing cards to the receiving and distributing layer that receives face-up playing cards.

[0211] In step S3A, the playing cards on the receiving and delivering layer, which receives face-up playing cards, are transferred to the card-flipping mechanism's passing layer. The flipping mechanism on the passing layer flips the face-up playing cards to face-down playing cards, and then transfers them to the first exit card-dispensing mechanism. Specifically, step S3A further includes:

[0212] In the preliminary step S3A0, it is detected whether the flipping rods of the flipping mechanism are in the initial state. Specifically, the flipping rods are in the initial state when the flipping positioning sensor of the flipping mechanism senses the first sensing plate on the motor shaft of the flipping motor. The initial state of the flipping rods means that several flipping rods are alternately positioned with several card-transferring wheels of the upstream card-transferring layer and are not higher than the upper surface of the card-transferring wheels, or that the several flipping rods are alternately positioned with several card-transferring wheels of the card-transferring layer and are parallel to each other.

[0213] In step S3A1, the playing cards on the receiving and delivering layer that receive face-up playing cards are transferred to the upstream section of the card-passing layer of the card-passing and flipping mechanism. The card-entry rod detection sensor at the card-entry end of the card-passing layer detects whether the face-up playing cards are fully loaded onto the flipping rod of the flipping mechanism located in the initial state in the upstream section of the card-passing layer. If yes, proceed to step S3A2; otherwise, continue to step S3A1.

[0214] In step S3A2, the flipping motor of the flipping mechanism starts the flipping lever, causing the face-up playing cards to flip in the air by more than 120° but less than 180°, for example, 160° to 170°, so that they become face-down playing cards and fall onto the downstream section of the card passing layer at the same time.

[0215] In step S3A3, the card-passing layer continues to convey face-down playing cards to the first exit card-dispensing mechanism, and the card-flipping motor pauses operation while the card-flipping levers are in a state of readiness to flip. Simultaneously, step S3A3' is also included, controlling the card-flipping levers to be in the readiness-to-flip state. Specifically, when the flipping positioning sensor of the card-flipping mechanism senses the second sensing plate on the motor shaft of the card-flipping motor and pauses operation, the card-flipping levers are in the readiness-to-flip state. The readiness-to-flip state refers to a situation where several card-flipping levers are spaced at an angle of at least one playing card's thickness above the upper surface of several card-passing rollers in the downstream card-passing layer, for example, at an angle of 10° to 20°.

[0216] In step S3A4, the card dispensing lever detection sensor at the card dispensing end of the card passing layer detects whether the very end of the playing card in the downstream section of the card passing layer has completely left the flip lever. If yes, proceed to step S3A5; otherwise, continue to step S3A3.

[0217] In step S3A5, the flipping motor of the flipping mechanism restarts the flipping lever, causing it to continue flipping more than 180° in the air, returning to the upstream section of the card-passing layer and returning to its initial state, ready for step S3A1. The flipping direction in step S3A5 and the flipping direction in step S3A2 can be the same clockwise rotation direction, for example, both being clockwise circular rotation directions.

[0218] Step S4A involves the first exit card-dealing mechanism dealing playing cards. Specifically, step S4A further includes:

[0219] In step S4A1, the card-dispensing wheel of the first outlet card-dispensing mechanism rolls, causing the playing cards to move towards the card-dispensing end of the first card-dispensing base.

[0220] In step S4A2, the card-rubbing wheel at the card-playing end of the first card-playing base rolls, causing the playing cards to completely leave the first card-playing base.

[0221] In step S4A3, the first card-dispensing detection sensor near the card-dispensing end of the first card-dispensing mechanism detects whether the very end of the playing card on the first card-dispensing base has completely left the first card-dispensing base; if yes, then continue to step S1; if no, then continue to sub-steps S4A1 and S4A2.

[0222] If the playing card identified in step S1 is face down, then proceed with the following steps:

[0223] In step S21B, the push-pull rod of the card-splitting mechanism pushes the card-splitting end of the card-splitting mechanism to align with the card-receiving layer of the receiving and delivering mechanism that receives the back-facing playing cards.

[0224] In step S22B, the card-distributing mechanism sends face-down playing cards to the receiving and distributing layer that receives face-down playing cards.

[0225] In step S3B, the playing cards on the receiving and delivering layer, which receives the face-down playing cards, are conveyed to the second exit card dispensing mechanism.

[0226] Step S4B involves the second exit card-dealing mechanism dealing playing cards. Specifically, step S4B also includes:

[0227] In step S4B1, the card-dispensing wheel of the second outlet card-dispensing mechanism rolls, causing the playing cards to move towards the dispensing end of the second card-dispensing base.

[0228] In step S4B2, the card-rubbing wheel at the card-playing end of the second card-playing base rolls, causing the playing cards to completely leave the second card-playing base.

[0229] In step S4B3, the second card-dispensing detection sensor near the card-dispensing end of the second card-dispensing mechanism detects whether the very end of the playing card on the second card-dispensing base has completely left the second card-dispensing base; if yes, then continue to step S1; if no, then continue to sub-steps S4B1 and S4B2.
