The number of light sources can be set based on actual conditions, and a proximity switch is also arranged at the position of each light source. Therefore, when the second body 42 rotates to drive the object 100 and the isolation plate G to rotate, when the proximity switch senses that the object 100 or the isolation plate G is approaching, the controller controls the light source to start and illuminate the approaching object 100 or isolation plate G, and when it senses that the current object 100 or isolation plate G is moving away, the light source is turned off until the next object 100 or isolation plate G approaches, and the controller controls the light source to start, thereby attracting game players and having a better display effect.

[0048] In the embodiment of the present application, the RF chip is arranged corresponding to the object 100 arranged on the rotating mechanism 3, and each RF chip records the position of an object 100. When placing the object 100 on the rotating mechanism 3, the type of the object 100 corresponding to the position of each object 100 can be recorded in advance. Therefore, based on the position information of the RF chip and the correspondence between the position and the type recorded and saved in the controller in advance, the controller can know which position of the object 100 is pushed into the shielding member 5, which is equivalent to the controller knowing which type of the object 100 is pushed into the shielding member 5.

[0050] In the embodiment of the present application, the game console may further include a gift delivery mechanism (not shown), which is installed on the housing 1, and the gift delivery mechanism is controlled by a controller to deliver gifts.

[0051] In the embodiment of the present application, the controller can be composed of any one or more processor chips including MCU, FPGA, CPLD, DSP, ARM, etc.

[0052] In the embodiment of the present application, a plurality of objects 100 of different types are arranged through the rotating mechanism 3, and the main body mechanism 4 is arranged above the rotating mechanism 3 and is provided with a plurality of objects 100 of different types. The objects 100 arranged by the main body mechanism 4 are conducive to the game players to intuitively understand the specific types of the guessed objects 100, and the types of objects 100 can be adjusted as needed, which is more abundant; the main body mechanism 4 has at least one through hole, and the through hole is arranged corresponding to the object 100. The shielding member 5 is arranged above the through hole. The rotating mechanism 3 is driven to rotate by the driving module, and the object 100 arranged by the rotating mechanism 3 is pushed to enter the shielding member 5 through the through hole. The object 100 is in the shielding member 5, and the game player uncovers it after guessing, which is more realistic and improves the experience; and the rotation of the rotating mechanism 3 makes the object 100 entering the shielding member 5 change, thereby ensuring the fun of guessing the prize.

[0053] It should be noted that when the actual game console is running:

[0054] 1. The driving module drives the rotating mechanism 3 to rotate, so as to drive the rotation of different types of objects 100.

[0055] Optionally, the first driving unit is controlled by the controller, and the first driving unit is used to drive the rotating mechanism 3 to rotate, thereby driving the rotation of different types of objects 100 on the rotating mechanism 3, which is equivalent to constantly changing the position of the objects 100, and can achieve the effect of randomizing and disrupting the objects 100.

[0056] 2. At preset time intervals, the driving module pushes the object 100 disposed on the rotating mechanism 3 so that the object 100 enters the shielding member 5 through the through hole.

[0057] Optionally, when the game player starts the guessing game, the controller can control the pushing unit to push the object 100 set by the rotating mechanism 3 at an interval of 5 seconds based on a pre-set time, such as 5 seconds, so that the object 100 moves upward and enters the shielding cover 52 through the through hole.

[0058] 3. Then, in response to the game player's click instruction on button 7 or selection instruction on display screen 6, the controller controls the movable part 51 to move / flip, so that the shielding cover 52 flips up to reveal the type of object 100, so that the game player can confirm whether he has guessed correctly.

[0059] In the embodiment of the present application, when there is an object 100 in the shielding cover 52, the controller controls the first body 41 to rotate so that the positions of the two shielding covers 52 are interchanged. At this time, the pushing unit pushes the object 100 on the rotating mechanism 3 upward, thereby pushing another object 100 into another empty shielding cover 52, which can reduce the waiting time of the game player during the game. Therefore, when one of the shielding covers 52 is opened, the game player can re-select the type to be guessed through the operating unit.

[0060] 4. After guessing the type of object 100 once, the game player can continue to use button 7 or new selection instructions through display screen 6. In response to button 7 or the new selection instruction, the controller will control the movable part 51 to move / flip, so that the shielding cover 52 flips up to reveal the type of object 100, so that the game player can confirm whether he has guessed correctly.

[0061] Optionally, a threshold of the number of correct guesses can be set. When the number of correct guesses by the game player reaches the threshold, the controller controls the gift delivery mechanism to deliver the gift to the game player, otherwise the game player will not get the gift. It should be noted that the controller can determine whether the game player guessed correctly based on the location information recorded by the radio frequency chip and the relationship between the location information and the type of object 100.

[0062] The above is a specific description of the preferred implementation of the utility model, but the utility model is not limited to the implementation method. Technical personnel familiar with the field can also make various equivalent deformations or substitutions without violating the spirit of the utility model. These equivalent deformations or substitutions are all included in the scope defined by the claims of this application.
