Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of game entertainment equipment, in particular to a claw machine for performing lottery incentives based on a control console. Background Art

[0002] Claw machines, also known as claw machines or doll machines, are a common type of entertainment device that can be found in shopping malls, amusement parks, movie theaters, and other places. Players insert coins or tokens into the machine, operate a joystick to control a mechanical claw, and press buttons to control the mechanical claw to perform a grabbing action, thereby attempting to grab toys, dolls, or other small items inside the machine.

[0003] Typically, the gripping force of a claw machine's claws is a controllable parameter, categorized as strong or weak. While strong grip is typically used to grab a doll, there's a chance the grip will switch from strong to weak when transporting the doll, making it more likely that the doll will fall during transport. Thus, the success rate of doll grabbing can be adjusted by controlling the number of strong grips. However, different players have varying levels of experience and ability in controlling the console, which can lead some players to deviate from the preset success rate due to difficulty in grabbing the doll. An excessively low success rate can lead to frustration among players, leading them to give up trying to grab the doll.
