Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of lifting devices, in particular to a card-discharging mechanism of a poker dealing machine. Background Art
[0002] A poker dealer can replace manual handling of the cards, such as shuffling and dealing. It is usually installed inside a table. After dividing the cards into a specific number of piles, the machine will transport them from the table to the desktop for people to pick up.
[0003] Existing poker dealers primarily consist of a card-delivering device and a card-dispensing device, resulting in a compact and complex structure. Because the card inlet on the front of the card-dispensing device faces the card-delivering device, the drive mechanism (i.e., the mechanism that drives the card-receiving plate) on the card-dispensing device is typically located on the back of the card-dispensing device. This makes it difficult to repair the drive mechanism in the event of a malfunction during the card-dispensing operation of the poker dealer. Furthermore, since both the card-delivering device and the card-dispensing device are located within the table, the space and field of view for servicing the card-dispensing device are significantly reduced, significantly impacting the maintenance of the poker machine.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0027] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through examples. The following examples are provided to explain the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the following examples.
[0028] See also Figures 1-6 The card discharging mechanism of the poker dealing machine in this embodiment includes a box body 1 and a lifting platform 2 for conveying a pile of playing cards. The box body 1 is detachably mounted on the frame of the poker dealing machine. The box body 1 includes a card discharging box 11 and a mounting box 12. The lifting platform 2 is vertically slidably arranged in the cavity of the card discharging box 11 through a driving mechanism 3. A card discharging port 41 and a card inlet 42 are respectively provided on the top surface and the front side surface of the card discharging box 11. The card discharging port 41 and the card inlet 42 are respectively located at the two ends of the moving track of the lifting platform 2. The driving mechanism 3 is located on the mounting box 12. When the lifting platform 2 moves vertically to the highest point, the top surface of the lifting platform 2 and the top surface of the card discharging box 11 are on the same horizontal plane.
[0029] During use, the lifting platform 2 is moved downward by the driving mechanism 3 to the same horizontal plane as the card inlet 42, so that the pile of playing cards formed after the card dealing operation of the poker dealer can be directly pushed horizontally onto the lifting platform 2 through the card inlet 42, and then the lifting platform 2 is driven by the driving mechanism 3 to move upward, so that the pile of playing cards can be output from the card outlet 41 and appear on the card outlet 41. At this time, the top surface of the lifting platform 2 and the top surface of the card outlet box 11 are on the same horizontal plane, thereby completing the card dealing operation of the poker dealer.
[0030] See also Figure 2-Figure 5 The driving mechanism 3 includes a sliding plate 31 and two driving arms 32. The sliding plate 31 is vertically slidably connected to the cavity of the card output box 11. The lifting platform 2 is detachably mounted on the top of the sliding plate 31. The two driving arms 32 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the lifting platform 2. The top of the driving arm 32 is horizontally slidably connected to the sliding plate 31 and its bottom end is rotatably connected to the mounting box 12 through a transmission shaft 33. A through hole 43 for the transmission shaft 33 to pass through is provided on the rear side of the card output box 11. A motor 34 is installed on the mounting box 12 for driving the two transmission shafts 33 to rotate synchronously in opposite directions. The motor 34 is connected to the two transmission shafts 33 through a gear transmission mechanism 35.
[0031] During use, the motor 34 drives the two transmission shafts 33, causing the transmission shafts 33 to drive the driving arms 32 to rotate relative to the card output box 11. During this process, when the driving arms 32 rotate downward relative to the card output box 11, the top of the driving arms 32 slides horizontally outward relative to the sliding plate 31 while also pushing the sliding plate 31 to slide vertically downward, causing the sliding plate 31 to drive the lifting platform 2 to move to the same level as the card inlet 42, so that a vertically stacked pile of playing cards can be directly pushed onto the lifting platform 2. Subsequently, when the driving arms 32 return to their original position and rotate upward relative to the card output box 11, the top of the driving arms 32 slides horizontally inward relative to the sliding plate 31, thereby pushing the sliding plate 31 to slide vertically upward, causing the sliding plate 31 to lift the lifting platform 2 to transport the playing cards and expose them to the card output box 41.
[0032] See also Figure 4 The left and right ends of the sliding piece 31 are both provided with protrusions 51, and the protrusions 51 are detachably mounted on the sliding piece 31. The left and right ends of the card output box 11 are both provided with sliding grooves 52 for the protrusions 51 to slide vertically and are provided with guide rods 53. The protrusions 51 are sleeved on the guide rods 53, which ensures the stability of the vertical sliding of the sliding piece 31 relative to the card output box 11, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the sliding piece 31 driving the lifting platform 2 to move between the card inlet 42 and the card output port 41.
[0033] See also Figure 3-Figure 5 The card box 11 comprises a main body 61 and a support member 62, both of which are detachably mounted on the frame. The card outlet 41, card inlet 42, and through-hole 43 are all formed on the main body 61. The support member 62 extends through the bottom end of the main body 61, and the bottom end of the guide rod 53 is fixed to the support member 62, with the two members perpendicular to each other. The assembled structure of the card box 11 reduces the manufacturing difficulty of the card box 11 and facilitates its installation on the poker dealer, improving manufacturing efficiency. Furthermore, if a malfunction occurs and requires repair, it can be repaired by direct replacement, improving maintenance efficiency while also ensuring the availability of other components on the device.
[0034] See also Figure 3 The top of the front side of the main body 61 is in the shape of a slope 7, which can guide the tilted playing card pile on the lifting platform 2 to become straight again, thereby ensuring the output effect of the playing card pile.
[0035] See also Figure 3 、 Figure 5 An extension piece 63 is provided on the top of the main body 61 along its circumference, and a plurality of positioning pins 64 are provided on the extension piece 63 which are symmetrically arranged relative to the extension piece 63, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the installation of the card box 11 on the frame (that is, the positioning pins 64 ensure the stability of the installation position of the top of the main body 61 in a plug-in manner), thereby ensuring the stability of the playing card pile on it during the vertical movement of the lifting platform 2, and the top of the slide 52 extends to the extension piece 63.
[0036] See also Figure 5, four slots 81 for its installation are provided on the bottom end of the mounting box 12, and the four slots 81 are arranged in a square on the mounting box 12, so that the installation position of the mounting box 12 on the frame can be slightly adjusted, thereby ensuring the driving effect of the driving mechanism 3 on the lifting platform 2, and four mounting blocks 82 are integrally connected to the bottom end of the main body 61, and the four mounting blocks 82 are arranged in a square on the main body 61. The mounting blocks 82 are provided with mounting holes 83 for the installation of the main body 61, which ensures the stability of the main body 61 installed on the frame, and waist-shaped holes 84 for its installation are provided on both ends of the support member 62, so that the installation position of the support member 62 on the frame can be slightly adjusted, thereby ensuring the guiding effect of the guide rod 53 on the vertical movement of the sliding piece 31.
[0037] See also Figure 6 A plurality of clamping block units 9 are provided on the bottom surface of the lifting platform 2. The clamping block units 9 are arranged in a straight line with equal intervals. The clamping block unit 9 includes two clamping blocks 91. The clamping block 91 is detachably mounted on the lifting platform 2 and there is an accommodating space 92 between the two clamping blocks 91 for inserting the top end of the sliding piece 31. The clamping block 91 and the sliding piece 31 are connected and fixed by bolts 93, which improves the connection strength between the lifting platform 2 and the sliding piece 31 and ensures the stability of the connection state.
