Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of entertainment equipment, in particular to a mahjong machine. Background Art

[0002] An automatic mahjong machine is a table that automatically arranges the mahjong tiles and pushes them to the appropriate position on the table through a tile pusher in the machine body. The mahjong machine includes a table top and a frame located on the four sides of the table top. A pressing plate is provided on the frame. The pressing plate can not only fix the table top, but also serve as a reference for the user to stack cards when coding. For example, the solution disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN116035352A entitled "A Mahjong Table Frame Structure" is a pressing strip provided at the upper end of the frame plate, and the clamping foot of the pressing strip is fixed in the clamping groove formed between the edge of the upper plate and the upper end of the frame. That is, the pressing strip is clamped between the pressing strip and the upper plate, and the upper plate and the frame plate are spaced apart to form a clamping groove. Due to the limitation of the assembly process and the need to form a clamping groove between the four sides of the upper plate and the frame plate, the width of the clamping groove on the four sides cannot be consistent. If the gap in the clamping groove is too large, the pressing strip cannot be firmly fixed. If the gap in the clamping groove is too small, the clamping foot of the upper plate cannot be fully inserted into the clamping groove. The above situation will make it impossible for the pressing plate to be firmly fixed, not only can the upper plate be fixed, but also a gap will be formed between the pressing plate and the upper plate to hide dirt and grime, and the pressing plate itself is also in an unstable state, affecting the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a mahjong machine, which can effectively solve the problem that the pressure strips in the existing mahjong machines cannot be firmly fixed.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0005] A mahjong machine includes a table top and multiple frame assemblies arranged around the table top, the frame assemblies including a frame body and a frame pressure strip, the top surface of the frame body and one of the frame pressure strips are provided with a slot, and the other is provided with a buckle, the buckle is inserted into the slot to fix the frame pressure strip on the top surface of the frame body, and the frame pressure strip includes an abutment portion that abuts against the top surface of the table top.

[0006] In the above mahjong machine, the buckle and the slot are elastically engaged.

[0007] In the above-mentioned mahjong machine, the clamping slot includes an elastic side wall, the elastic side wall is provided with a fixing groove, and the side wall of the buckle is provided with a clamping portion embedded in the fixing groove.

[0008] In the above mahjong machine, a fixing groove is provided on the side wall of the clamping slot, and the buckle includes two elastic clamping strips arranged in parallel and at intervals, and each elastic clamping strip is provided with a clamping portion embedded in the corresponding fixing groove.

[0009] In the mahjong machine, the clamping part and / or the clamping groove are provided with a first guide surface for facilitating the insertion of the clamping part into the clamping groove.

[0010] In the mahjong machine, the clamping groove is arranged along the length direction of the frame body.

[0011] In the mahjong machine, the length of the clamping part is equal to the length of the clamping groove.

[0012] In the mahjong machine, the pressing frame strip further comprises an arc-shaped transition part connected between the top surface of the pressing frame strip and the side wall away from the table plate.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the mahjong machine has the following advantages:

[0014] The clamping groove and the clamping part are matched to fix the pressing frame strip on the top surface of the frame body, thereby solving the problem that the pressing frame strip cannot be fixed firmly in the mahjong machine. The clamping groove is arranged on one of the top surface of the frame body and the pressing frame strip, and the clamping part is arranged on the other one. Therefore, the width of the clamping groove will not be affected by the position of the table plate, that is, the width of the clamping groove will be fixed. When the pressing frame strip is fixed on the top surface of the frame body, the clamping part is inserted into the clamping groove, so that the pressing frame strip is firmly connected with the frame body. Then, the abutting part on the pressing frame strip is abutted against the top surface of the table plate, thereby ensuring that the table plate can be fixed by the pressing frame strip. In addition, the clamping groove and the clamping part are matched between the frame body and the pressing frame strip. When the pressing frame strip is assembled on the frame body, no tool is needed, and when the machine needs to be repaired, the pressing frame strip can be conveniently removed from the frame body.

[0015] Further, the clamping part and the clamping groove are elastically clamped. The elastic clamping is relatively more stable, and the two are not easy to be loosened, and the connection is more firm.

[0016] Further, the clamping groove comprises an elastic side wall provided with a fixing groove, and the side wall of the clamping part is provided with a clamping part embedded in the fixing groove. A structure of the clamping part and the clamping groove is used. When the clamping part is inserted, the elastic side wall of the clamping groove is elastically deformed. Not only can the clamping part be avoided to be smoothly inserted into the clamping groove, but also the elastic side wall can be extruded with the side wall of the clamping part after the clamping part is inserted, so as to have greater friction to prevent the two from being separated. In addition, the fixing groove is arranged on the elastic side wall, and the clamping part is arranged on the side wall of the clamping part and embedded in the fixing groove, so as to further improve the firmness after the clamping part and the clamping groove are inserted.

[0017] Further, the side wall of the card slot is provided with a fixing groove, the buckle includes two parallel and spaced elastic clamping strips, and each elastic clamping strip is provided with a clamping part embedded in the fixing groove. Another structure of the buckle and the card slot, the two parallel and spaced elastic clamping strips can be elastically deformed to be pressed against the side wall of the card slot to form greater friction, meanwhile, the fixing groove is arranged on the side wall of the card slot, and the clamping part is arranged on the elastic clamping strip and embedded in the fixing groove, so that the fastening degree of the card slot and the buckle after being inserted is further improved.

[0018] Further, the clamping part and / or the card slot is provided with a first guide surface facilitating insertion of the buckle into the card slot; and the clamping part and / or the fixing groove is provided with a second guide surface facilitating separation of the clamping part from the fixing groove. The first guide surface is arranged to provide a guide function when the buckle is inserted into the card slot, so that the buckle or the card slot is elastically deformed, and the buckle is more smoothly inserted into the card slot; and the second guide surface is arranged to facilitate separation of the buckle from the card slot when the pressing frame strip is disassembled.

[0019] Further, the card slot is arranged along the length direction of the frame body. The card slot has sufficient length, and the buckle does not need to be specially aligned with the card slot in the length direction, so that the assembly difficulty is reduced.

[0020] Further, the length of the buckle is equal to the length of the card slot. The contact length of the buckle and the card slot is increased as much as possible, and the pressing frame strip is more stable when being assembled to the frame body.

[0021] Further, the pressing frame strip further includes an arc-shaped transition part connected between the top surface of the pressing frame strip and the side wall away from the table plate. The side wall of the pressing frame strip away from the table plate directly faces the customer, and the arc-shaped transition part is used to make the edge of the pressing frame strip smooth, so that the user is more comfortable when leaning on the pressing frame strip.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] A mahjong machine comprises a table plate 100 and a plurality of frame assemblies 200 arranged around the table plate 100, wherein each frame assembly 200 comprises a frame body 210 and a pressing frame strip 220, one of the top surface of the frame body 210 and the pressing frame strip 220 is provided with a clamping groove 211, and the other is provided with a buckle 221, the buckle 221 is inserted into the clamping groove 211 to fix the pressing frame strip 220 on the top surface of the frame body 210, and the pressing frame strip 220 comprises an abutting portion 222 abutting against the top surface of the table plate 100.

[0032] The pressing frame strip 220 is fixed on the top surface of the frame body 210 through the cooperation of the clamping groove 211 and the buckle 221, thereby solving the problem that the pressing frame strip cannot be fixed firmly in the mahjong machine. One of the top surface of the frame body 210 and the pressing frame strip 220 is provided with the clamping groove 211, and the other is provided with the buckle 221. Since the clamping groove 211 or the buckle 221 is arranged on the top surface of the frame body 210, the width of the clamping groove 211 or the buckle 221 will not be affected by the position of the table plate 100, that is, the width of the clamping groove 211 and the buckle 221 will be fixed. When the pressing frame strip 220 is fixed on the top surface of the frame body 210, the buckle 221 is inserted into the clamping groove 211, so that the pressing frame strip 220 is firmly connected with the frame body 210, and then the abutting portion 222 on the pressing frame strip 220 abuts against the top surface of the table plate 100, thereby ensuring that the table plate 100 can be fixed by the pressing frame strip 220 around. In addition, the frame body 210 and the pressing frame strip 220 are matched through the clamping groove 211 and the buckle 221, so that the pressing frame strip 220 can be assembled to the frame body 210 without using tools, and the pressing frame strip 220 can be conveniently removed from the frame body 210 when the machine needs to be repaired.

[0033] The embodiments of the utility model will be described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the utility model, and cannot be understood as a limitation of the utility model.

[0036] In this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "installed," "connected," "connect," "fixed," etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connection, detachable connection, or integration; mechanical connection, electrical connection, or communication; direct connection or indirect connection through an intermediate medium; internal communication between two elements or interaction between two elements, unless otherwise specified. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0037] See Figures 1 to 6 This is an embodiment of a mahjong machine of the present invention. The mahjong machine includes a tabletop 100 and a plurality of frame assemblies 200 arranged around the tabletop 100. The tabletop 100 is generally square, and there are four corresponding frame assemblies 200. The four frame assemblies 200 form a ring, and the tabletop 100 is fixed to the center of the ring formed by the frame assemblies 200. The frame assembly 200 includes a frame body 210 and a pressure frame strip 220. The frame body 210 has a certain strength and is the main component that provides support for the entire mahjong machine. The pressure frame strip 220 is fixed to the top of the frame body 210. On the one hand, it presses down the four sides of the tabletop 100, covers the gaps between the four sides of the tabletop 100 and the frame body 210, and stabilizes the tabletop 100 so that it will not tilt. On the other hand, the pressure frame strip 220 is raised upwards above the tabletop 100 and serves as a reference for the cards when the user arranges the cards.

[0038] In the embodiment, the top surface of the frame body 210 is provided with a clamping groove 211, and the end surface of the pressing frame strip 220 towards the top surface of the frame body 210 is provided with a clasp 221, and the clasp 221 is inserted into the clamping groove 211 to fix the pressing frame strip 220 on the frame body 210. Compared with the prior art of forming the clamping groove 211 in the gap between the frame body 210 and the table board 100, the clamping groove 211 formed on the top surface of the frame body 210 is easier to control in size, and the size will not change, which makes the clasp 221 be able to be stably inserted and fixed with the clamping groove 211. And the insertion and fixation of the clasp 221 and the clamping groove 211 do not need to use tools when assembling, which can speed up the assembly progress, and the user also does not need tools when maintaining and disassembling the pressing frame strip 220. After the insertion and fixation of the pressing frame strip 220 and the frame body 210, the abutting portion 222 on the pressing frame strip 220 will abut on the top surface of the table board 100, and press the table board 100 while shielding the gap between the table board 100 and the frame body 210. In addition to setting the clamping groove 211 on the frame body 210 and the clasp 221 on the pressing frame strip 220, the clamping block can also be set on the frame body 210 and the clamping groove 211 can be set on the pressing frame strip 220, which can also achieve the above-mentioned effect.

[0039] The cooperation of the clamping groove 211 and the clasp 221 can adopt interference fit to firmly connect the clasp 221 and the clamping groove 211 together, or the clasp 221 and the clamping groove 211 can be cooperatively arranged as elastic clamping, so that the clasp 221 is more easily inserted and cooperated with the clamping groove 211.

[0040] As Figures 3 to 6As shown, the side wall of the clamping groove 211 is provided with a fixing groove 213, the buckle 221 includes two parallel and spaced elastic clamping strips 224, which can be realized by the material properties itself, and also need to have a certain strength, such as hard plastic or aluminum alloy, etc. The elastic clamping strip 224 can be integrally provided with the pressing frame strip 220, and the two elastic clamping strips 224 are spaced apart to ensure that each elastic clamping strip 224 has sufficient deformation space and does not interfere with each other. The side wall of the clamping groove 211 is provided with a fixing groove 213, and each elastic clamping strip 224 is provided with a clamping portion 223 embedded in the corresponding fixing groove 213, that is, each elastic clamping strip 224 is provided with a clamping portion 223 on the side wall opposite to the side wall of the clamping groove 211. When the elastic clamping strip 224 is inserted into the clamping groove 211, the elastic deformation of the elastic clamping strip 224 is utilized to make the clamping portion 223 tightly slide into the fixing groove 213 of the side wall of the clamping groove 211. Because the deformation of the elastic clamping strip 224 will generate a certain elastic force, the increase of the elastic force will increase the friction force between the clamping portion 223 and the side wall of the clamping groove 211, which makes the pressing frame strip 220 not easy to be pulled out from the frame body 210 in the general use state, and only when a larger force is applied to the pressing frame strip 220, the pressing frame strip 220 can be pulled out upward and separated from the frame body 210. Of course, the clamping portion 223 can be provided only on one of the elastic clamping strips 224, and the other elastic clamping strip 224 can be in surface contact with the corresponding side wall of the clamping groove 211, which can also achieve the purpose of fixing the pressing frame strip 220 to the frame body 210.

[0041] As shown in Figure 6 、 Figure 7 Another structure of the clamping groove 211 and the buckle 221 is shown. The clamping groove 211 includes an elastic side wall 212, that is, the side wall of the clamping groove 211 can elastically deform, and the elastic side wall 212 and the frame body 210 are still integrally provided, and the frame body 210 and the elastic side wall 212 can be made of aluminum alloy or hard plastic and other materials that can elastically deform and have a certain strength. The two side walls of the clamping groove 211 opposite in the length direction are respectively provided with a fixing groove 213, and the side wall of the buckle 221 opposite to the fixing groove 213 is provided with a clamping portion 223 embedded in the fixing groove 213. When the buckle 221 is inserted into the clamping groove 211, the clamping portion 223 is inserted into the clamping groove 211, so that the elastic side wall 212 of the clamping groove 211 elastically deforms to leave enough space for the clamping portion 223 to continue to extend into the clamping groove 211. As the clamping portion 223 is embedded in the fixing groove 213, the elastic side wall 212 can return to the initial state. At this time, in order to pull out the buckle 221 from the clamping groove 211 again, it is necessary to overcome the elastic force of the elastic side wall 212. Therefore, in the general use state, the pressing frame strip 220 is not easy to be pulled out from the frame body 210, and only when a larger force is applied to the pressing frame strip 220, the pressing frame strip 220 can be pulled out upward and separated from the frame body 210.

[0042] In order to facilitate the insertion of the buckles 221 into the card slots 211, at least one of the buckles 221 and the card slots 211 is provided with a first guide surface 230 for facilitating the insertion of the buckles 221 into the card slots 211. The first guide surface 230 is arranged at the end of the buckles 221 away from the pressing frame strip 220, i.e. the end of the buckles 221 that first contacts the card slots 211. Alternatively, the first guide surface 230 can be arranged at the entrance of the card slots 211, so that when the buckles 221 contact the entrance of the card slots 211, the buckles 221 are guided to enter the card slots 211 more accurately and smoothly. Similarly, in order to facilitate the disassembly of the pressing frame strip 220, the buckles 223 or the fixing slots 213 are provided with a second guide surface 240 for facilitating the disengagement of the buckles 223 from the fixing slots 213, so that the buckles 223 are not stuck to the fixing slots 213. The first guide surface 230 and the second guide surface 240 can be arc surfaces or inclined surfaces inclined to the insertion direction of the buckles 221 and the card slots 211.

[0043] In the embodiment, the card slots 211 are arranged along the length direction of the frame body 210 and extend through the frame body 210. Therefore, whether the buckles 221 are one or multiple, the position of the buckles 221 in the length direction of the frame body 210 can be ignored when the buckles 221 are inserted into the card slots 211. Moreover, such an arrangement makes the side walls of the card slots 211 more likely to elastically deform. Furthermore, the length of the buckles 221 is equal to the length of the card slots 211, so as to increase the contact area between the buckles 221 and the card slots 211, and make the connection between the frame body 210 and the pressing frame strip 220 more secure. In addition, the longer buckles 221 can also serve as reinforcing ribs of the pressing frame strip 220, thereby improving the strength of the pressing frame strip 220.

[0044] The frame body 210 and the pressing frame strip 220 are both long strips. The top surface of the pressing frame strip 220 near the end close to the table board 100 is provided with an abutting portion 222 extending towards the table board 100, and the top surface of the pressing frame strip 220 away from the table board 100 is provided with a side wall flush with the side wall of the frame body 210. In this way, the outer side wall of the entire frame assembly 200 is relatively flat. The buckles 221 are located between the abutting portion 222 and the side wall away from the table board 100, and are spaced apart from both the abutting portion 222 and the side wall away from the table board 100, so as to leave space for the card slots 211 and provide a certain deformation space for the buckles 221. An arc-shaped transition portion 225 is further arranged between the top surface of the pressing frame strip 220 and the side wall away from the table board 100. The arc-shaped transition portion 225 optimizes the feel of the pressing frame strip 220, increases the contact area between the pressing frame strip 220 and the user's arm when the user's arm leans on the pressing frame strip 220, and avoids the user's arm from being pinched.

[0045] When the frame pressing strip 220 is then installed on the frame body 210, the buckle 221 is aligned with the slot 211. As downward pressure is applied to the frame pressing strip 220, the engaging portion 223 of the buckle 221 squeezes the slot 211, causing the buckle 221 or the slot 211 to elastically deform, leaving enough space for the buckle 221 to extend into the slot 211. Finally, the engaging portion 223 cooperates with the fixing slot 213, completing the plug-in assembly of the slot 211 and the buckle 221, so that the frame pressing strip 220 is firmly fixed to the frame body 210. When it is necessary to remove the frame pressing strip 220, an upward pulling force is applied to the frame pressing strip 220. The engaging portion 223 moves upward, pushing the buckle 221 or the slot 211 to elastically deform and leave enough space, finally allowing the buckle 221 to disengage from the slot 211. Since a buckle 221 or a slot 211 is set between the top surface of the frame body 210 and the pressure frame strip 220, the width of the slot 211 is a fixed value, and the accuracy of the slot 211 will not be related to the assembly accuracy of the mahjong machine, ensuring that the pressure frame strip 220 can be accurately fixed on the frame body 210. It not only ensures that the position of the pressure frame strip 220 is fixed and not easy to loosen during use, but also can firmly press the table top 100.

[0046] The above description is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the technical features of the present invention are not limited thereto. Any changes or modifications made by any technician in this field within the scope of the present invention are included in the patent scope of the present invention.
