Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of card - dealing devices for playing cards, and more specifically, to a steering system for a card - dealing machine with stable operation. Background Art
[0002] In the field of existing entertainment devices, especially in the technology of automatic card - dealing machines, the steering system of a card - dealing machine is a key component for realizing automatic, efficient, and accurate card dealing. Traditional card - dealing machine steering systems mostly adopt simple mechanical structures, such as directly driving the housing to rotate by a motor to adjust the card - dealing direction. However, this design often faces a series of problems in practical applications. Especially when complex mechanical and electronic components are integrated inside the housing, its moment of inertia significantly increases, making it difficult to effectively control the stable state of the housing movement during startup, stop, or steering.
[0003] Specifically, in the card - dealing machine steering system in the prior art, during the process of the motor driving the housing to rotate, due to the fast rotation speed, large weight and strong inertia of the components inside the housing, when the motor stops working, the housing often continues to rotate a certain distance due to inertia. This phenomenon is called "inertial movement". This inertial movement not only causes the deviation of the card - dealing angle, affecting the accuracy and stability of card dealing, but also may cause unnecessary wear to the overall structure of the card - dealing machine, shortening the service life of the equipment. In addition, when the inertial movement of the housing drives the base to rotate, it will further exacerbate the deviation of the card - dealing angle, requiring frequent manual intervention to adjust the card - dealing direction, greatly reducing the card - dealing efficiency and user experience.
[0004] To solve the above problems, although some improvement schemes have emerged in the market, such as adopting more complex control algorithms to optimize the motor driving strategy. However, these schemes are either costly and complex in structure, making it difficult to popularize and apply; or have limited effects and fail to fundamentally solve the problems caused by the inertial movement of the housing. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] The main purpose of the utility model is to improve the existing card - dealing machine steering system by setting a buffer component. This system can effectively suppress the movement of the housing caused by inertia while ensuring the card - dealing accuracy and efficiency, keep the base stable, and thus improve the overall operation stability and reliability of the card - dealing machine.
[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the specific technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows:
[0007] A steering system for a card - dealing machine with stable operation according to the utility model includes a steering mechanism and a card - dealing mechanism that can be connected to the steering mechanism. The steering mechanism includes a base, a transmission component, and a first power component;
[0008] The transmission assembly includes a bushing and a rotation stabilizing device. The bushing is connected and transmitted with the first power assembly and is also connected to the lower housing.
[0009] The rotation stabilizing device includes a first ring body, a second ring body and a tension spring. The lower housing is provided with a bearing and a fixing member.

The bushing is provided with a tongue plate which is inserted into the interval formed by the first arm and the second arm.
[0010] During the rotation of the bushing and the rotation stabilizing device together, the tension spring is used to buffer the inertial force generated when the rotation stops, and increase the rotation stability.
[0011] Preferably, hook parts are provided at the ends of the first arm and the second arm, and ferrule parts are provided at both ends of the tension spring. The ferrule parts are sleeved on the hook parts for connecting the two arms.
[0012] Preferably, a transmission gear is provided on the bushing. The first power assembly includes a first motor and a variable-speed power group including a power gear. The power gear and the transmission gear are meshed and connected. The bushing is installed on a base and is connected to the lower housing.
[0013] Preferably, the card-dealing mechanism includes an upper housing, a lower housing, a card-transmitting mechanism and a card-feeding mechanism. The card-transmitting mechanism and the card-feeding mechanism are both installed on the lower housing.
[0014] Preferably, a connecting ring body is provided at the bottom of the lower housing. A clamping groove is provided on the connecting ring body, and a bearing is provided in the clamping groove. The bushing is connected to the bearing provided in the clamping groove to realize the synchronous movement of the housing and the bushing.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0021] In the utility model, the buffering component acts in the following way: when the product rotates / halts at intervals, the inertia brought about by the buffering during the moment of halting. At this time, the tension spring provided on the rotation stabilizing device, according to its elastic action, minimizes the inertia to the greatest extent, making the position of each pause precise and preventing the bushing from continuing to rotate; in actual use, the bushing drives the rotation of the housing, and there are many components inside the housing, which is the heaviest component of the entire device. Therefore, the inertia force during its rotation is relatively large, and it often drives the base to rotate due to the inability to prevent continued rotation, that is, inertial movement, which will cause the card dealing angle to shift, and it needs to be manually corrected before it can continue to be used normally; the utility model effectively controls the rotational inertia of the housing by introducing a rotation stabilizing device, providing a more stable technical solution for the field of automatic card dealing machines.

Specific embodiments
[0040] The following further explains and illustrates the present utility model through specific embodiments. It should be understood that the purpose of the following embodiments is to make the technical solution of the present utility model clearer and easier to understand, and does not limit the protection scope of the claims.
[0041] The following further illustrates the present utility model through specific examples. Embodiment
[0042] This embodiment provides a card dealing machine, as Figure 1 shown, including a card dealing mechanism and a steering mechanism 50; the card dealing mechanism and the steering mechanism 50 operate alternately, and the steering mechanism 50 is at the bottom and usually contacts the tabletop; the cooperation mode of the card dealing mechanism and the steering mechanism 50 is: the card dealing mechanism is used to deal playing cards in front of the players, and the steering mechanism 50 is used to adjust the dealing angle to send the playing cards in front of the players at different positions.
[0043] Specifically, the card dealing mechanism includes a lower housing 10, an upper housing 11, a card transfer mechanism 20, and a card delivery mechanism 30. The card transfer mechanism 20 and the card delivery mechanism 30 are both installed in the lower housing 10.
[0044] Specifically, as Figure 5 , Figure 6 shown, the card delivery mechanism 30 includes a mounting bracket 31 and a mounting seat 32. The mounting bracket 31 and the mounting seat 32 are both installed inside the lower housing 10. An upper card pressing member 311 is provided on the mounting bracket 31, and a lower card pressing member 321 is provided on the mounting seat 32. The upper card pressing member 311 and the lower card pressing member 321 are arranged at intervals to form a card delivery channel 33 that allows only a single poker card to pass through.
[0045] In traditional designs, the fixing is often achieved by driving bolts into the top of the mounting seat 32 and / or the mounting bracket 31. This method not only cannot well adjust the width of the card delivery channel 33, but also easily causes the width of the card delivery channel 33 to be uneven. These factors together lead to the occurrence of card jamming.
[0046] Specifically, as Figure 5 , Figure 6 shown, the two ends of the mounting bracket 31 and the mounting seat 32 are provided with a first positioning group of holes (including first positioning group hole a 313, first positioning group hole b 326,), a second positioning group of holes (second positioning group hole a 314, second positioning group hole b 327,), a third positioning group of holes (third positioning group hole a 315, third positioning group hole b 328,), and a fourth positioning group of holes (fourth positioning group hole a 316, fourth positioning group hole b 329,). After the four groups of positioning group holes are assembled, they respectively position the mounting bracket 31 and the mounting seat 32, and connect the two parts together to make the upper card pressing member 311 and the lower card pressing member 321 form a card delivery channel 33 that allows only a single poker card to pass through. According to the positioning of the four groups of positioning group holes, the upper and lower intervals of the card delivery channel 33 can be made more balanced, and the card dealing is more stable and smooth.
[0047] The mounting seat 32 includes a first side wall 322, a second side wall 323, and a third side wall 324. The first positioning group of holes and the second positioning group of holes are provided on the second side wall 323, and the third positioning group of holes and the fourth positioning group of holes are provided on the third side wall 324. The first positioning group of holes, the second positioning group of holes, the third positioning group of holes, and the fourth positioning group of holes are all provided on the side of the mounting seat 32, which can not only be used to fix the mounting seat 32, but also can adjust the flatness of the mounting seat 32.
[0048] Specifically, the card transfer mechanism 20 includes a second power assembly 21 and a card transfer wheel 22. The card transfer wheel 22 provides power transmission for the second power assembly 21.
[0049] The card delivery process is as follows: Place the playing cards on the card delivery wheel 22, and the second power assembly 21 provides rotational power for the card delivery wheel 22, which sends the playing cards into the card feeding channel 33.
[0050] Specifically, a card feeding wheel 325 is rotatably provided on the mounting base 32, and a card pressing wheel 312 is provided on the mounting frame 31. The card pressing wheel 312 and the card feeding wheel 325 are arranged opposite to each other.
[0051] Specifically, as Figure 8 shown, a card feeding port 111 is provided on the upper housing 11.
[0052] The card dealing process is as follows: As Figure 1 shown, the playing cards enter between the card pressing wheel 312 and the card feeding wheel 325 from the card feeding channel 33. The card feeding wheel 325 rotates to convey the playing cards to the card feeding port 11 and send them out from the card feeding port 111.
[0053] Specifically, the second power assembly 21 includes a second motor and a gear set.
[0054] Specifically, the steering mechanism 50 includes a first power assembly 51, a rotation stabilizing device 52 and a base 53. The base 53 is rotatably connected to the lower housing 10 through the first power assembly 51 and the transmission assembly 52. The lower housing 10 rotates through the steering mechanism 50 to achieve the purpose of dealing cards to players in different directions.
[0055] Specifically, the rotation stabilizing device 52 includes a bushing 521. A transmission gear 5211 is provided on the bushing 521. The first power assembly 51 includes a first motor and a first gear set. As Figure 4 shown, the first gear set includes a final power gear 511. The power gear 511 is meshed and connected with the transmission gear 5211. The bushing 521 is connected to the lower housing 10.
[0056] The first motor drives the first gear set to move. The power is transmitted from the power gear 511 to the transmission gear 5211 to drive the bushing 521 to rotate. The bushing 521 drives the base 53 to rotate. Since the base contacts the tabletop, the base will drive the connected lower housing 10 to rotate to adjust the card dealing direction. This is a specific structural form of the rotational movement of the lower housing 10.
[0057] Specifically, the lower housing 10 and the upper housing 11 are combined and connected as a whole and rotate synchronously during rotation.
[0058] Specifically, a connecting ring body 12 is provided at the bottom of the lower housing 10. A clamping groove 121 is provided on the connecting ring body 12, and a bearing 101 is provided in the clamping groove 121. The shaft sleeve 521 is fixedly connected to the bearing 101 provided in the clamping groove 121 to realize the synchronous movement of the lower housing 10 and the shaft sleeve 521.
[0059] Specifically, as Figure 2 shown, the base 53 is provided with a main shaft rod 531. The shaft sleeve 521 is sleeved on the main shaft rod 531, and then the shaft sleeve 521 passes through the first bearing 101 provided at the bottom of the lower housing 10 for connection and is fixed by a fixing member 102. This is a specific structural form of the clamping connection between the shaft sleeve 521 and the main shaft rod 531.
[0060] Specifically, as Figure 2 shown, the rotation stabilizing device 52 includes a first ring body 522, a second ring body 523, and a tension spring 524. The tension spring 524 is used to buffer the rotational inertia force and increase the rotational stability;
[0061] The first ring body 522 is provided with a first support arm 5221, and the second ring body 523 is provided with a second support arm 5231. Both the first ring body 522 and the second ring body 523 are sleeved on the main shaft rod 531 provided in the base 53. The first support arm 5221 and the second support arm 5231 are arranged at intervals (forming a clamping interval 526) and are connected by a tension spring 524. The shaft sleeve 521 is provided with a tongue plate 5212, and the tongue plate 5212 is inserted into the interval (clamping interval 526) formed by the first support arm 5221 and the second support arm 5231;
[0062] The action mode of the rotation stabilizing device 52 is as follows: when the shaft sleeve 521 rotates, the rotation stabilizing device 52 is driven to rotate together. At this time, the tension spring 524 rotates together; when the shaft sleeve 521 stops rotating, the tension spring 524 is slightly stretched, and the rotational inertia is reduced through the slight stretching to prevent the shaft sleeve 521 from continuing to rotate;
[0063] During actual use, the shaft sleeve 521 drives the rotation of the lower housing 10. There are many internal components in the lower housing 10, which is the heaviest component of the entire device. Therefore, its rotational inertia force is also relatively large. It often cannot prevent continued rotation, that is, inertial movement occurs and drives the base 53 to rotate as well. This will cause the card - dealing angle to shift, and manual correction is required before normal use can continue;
[0064] The purpose of setting the rotation stabilizing device 52 in this application is to offset the dynamic inertia force generated during overall rotation, keep the base 53 stable, and enhance the stability during the card - dealing operation.
[0065] Specifically, hook portions 525 are provided at the ends of the first arm 5221 and the second arm 5231. Ferrule 5241 are provided at both ends of the tension spring 524. The ferrule 5241 is sleeved within the hook of the hook portion 525 for connecting the two arms.
[0066] The present utility model is described by way of examples, but does not constitute a limitation to the present utility model. With reference to the description of the present utility model, other variations of the disclosed embodiments, such as those readily conceivable to a person skilled in the art, should fall within the scope defined by the claims of the present utility model.
