Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of game coin pusher machines, specifically relating to a bearing bracket. Background Technology
[0002] As a key component in the transmission system of a coin pusher, the performance of the bearing bracket directly affects the overall working condition of the coin pusher.
[0003] Currently, the bearing brackets used in commercially available coin pusher games primarily rely on bushings on the bearing brackets fitting onto the connecting shaft of the coin pusher to achieve rotation, thereby driving the bearings to slide in grooves. In the early stages of the use of coin pusher games, this traditional design could meet basic operational requirements to a certain extent. However, with the high-frequency use and long-term continuous operation of coin pusher games, a series of drawbacks have gradually become apparent.
[0004] On the one hand, because the coin pusher operates with frequent and varied coin-pushing movements, the friction and relative movement between the bushing and the connecting shaft become more intense and complex. Under these conditions, the bushing is highly susceptible to seizing. Once the bushing seizes, the coin pusher mechanism will malfunction, interrupting the game and severely impacting the player's experience, potentially leading to player dissatisfaction and complaints. Furthermore, sudden seizing can also cause overload impacts on critical components such as the motor, shortening their lifespan and increasing maintenance costs.
[0005] On the other hand, the game coin pusher is accompanied by obvious vibration when it is working. In addition, the force is uneven in various directions during the coin pushing process. After long-term use, the bushing is prone to wear and unevenness, which leads to a short service life.
[0006] The aforementioned problems significantly shorten the lifespan of bearing brackets used in coin pusher games. Frequent malfunctions and repairs not only increase the operating costs of entertainment venues but also extend equipment downtime, affecting normal business operations. Therefore, a new bearing bracket needs to be designed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0034] Example 1
[0035] See Figure 1 This embodiment provides a bearing bracket including a support 1, a first support member 2 and a second support member 3 disposed on both sides of the support 1. In this embodiment, the first support member 2 is disposed on the right side and the second support member 3 on the left side. The second support member 3 includes a support body 31 and a fixing column 32. One end of the fixing column 32 is inserted into the inner cavity of the support body 31, and the other end of the fixing column 32 is connected to a first connecting shaft 33. The first support member 2 includes a body 21 and an annular partition 22 disposed in the inner cavity of the body 21. The annular partition 22 divides the inner cavity of the body 21 into two identical cavities 23, and a first bearing 4 is fixed in each cavity 23.
[0036] This embodiment provides a bearing bracket, which divides the inner cavity of the main body 21 into two identical cavities 23 by an annular partition 22 disposed in the inner cavity of the main body 21. A first bearing 4 is fixed in each cavity 23. In use, the two first bearings 4 and the annular partition 22 are sleeved on the connecting shaft of the game coin pusher. The bearing bracket of this embodiment uses two first bearings 4 instead of the bushing of the existing bearing bracket. The two first bearings 4 can maintain concentricity, thereby reducing friction with the second connecting shaft 74, and thus increasing the service life and stability of the bearing bracket.
[0037] Specifically, the bearing bracket is manufactured by integral molding using a mold.
[0038] In this embodiment, the bearing bracket is manufactured using a one-piece molding process, resulting in high structural integrity. Compared to modular bearing brackets, it eliminates the potential for loosening between connecting components. During use, bearing brackets assembled from multiple parts may develop gaps or displacement at the joints due to vibration, long-term stress, and other factors. The one-piece molding structure avoids this, allowing the entire bearing bracket to distribute stress evenly when bearing forces from the bearing and external equipment, effectively preventing localized deformation and ensuring stable equipment operation. The design of embedding a first bearing 4 in each cavity 23 improves assembly accuracy. Since each first bearing 4 has a specially designed cavity 23, its dimensions can be machined according to the bearing's precise specifications, ensuring accurate fit between the bearing and the cavity. The bearing can be accurately fixed within the cavity.
[0039] Specifically, the support 1 includes a first support plate 12 and a second support plate 13 respectively connected to the two sides of the base 11, forming a double-sided support structure that can evenly distribute the load. The first support plate 12 and the second support plate 13 are perpendicular to the base 11, making the entire support 1 structure more stable. From a mechanical point of view, this vertical structure can effectively resist vertical pressure and horizontal shear force. One end 311 of the support body 31 and one end 211 of the body 21 are both connected to the first support plate 12. One end of the fixing column 32 is inserted into the inner cavity of the support body 31 from one end 311 of the support body 31. This plug-in connection can provide precise positioning and good connection strength. During assembly, the plug-in connection can ensure the coaxiality of the fixing column 32 and the support body 31, reducing additional stress caused by installation deviation. In addition, the other end 312 of the support body 31 and the other end 212 of the body 21 are both connected to the second support plate 13.
[0040] Specifically, the ends of the two sides of the second support plate 13 are respectively connected to a first lug 131 and a second lug 132. The first lug 131 is connected to the other end of the main body 21, and the second lug 132 is connected to the other end of the support body 31.
[0041] Specifically, the first lug 131 is provided with a hole 1311, and the second lug 132 is provided with a hole 1321.
[0042] Specifically, the second support plate 13 is also provided with a label area 133 for setting up or engraving labels.
[0043] Example 2
[0044] like Figure 2As shown, unlike Embodiment 1, the bearing bracket provided in Embodiment 2 has a first support member 2 on the left side and a second support member 3 on the right side. The other end 312 of the support body 31 and one end 211 of the body 21 are both connected to the first support plate 12, and one end 311 of the support body 31 and the other end 211 of the body 21 are both connected to the second support plate 13.
[0045] It should be noted that, as Figure 3 As shown, the bearing bracket of this embodiment 2 is used in a conventional game coin pusher. A conventional game coin pusher typically includes a coin dispenser 7, which has a coin loading channel 71. The coin loading channel 71 has an arc-shaped groove 72. A first locking member 6 engages with the first slot 331 of the first connecting shaft 33, thereby limiting the second bearing 5 on the first connecting shaft 33. The second bearing 5 is slidably connected to the groove 72. The first plate 73 of the coin dispenser 7 also has a second connecting shaft 74. The end of the second connecting shaft 74 passes sequentially through the central channel of a first bearing 4, the central hole 221 of the annular partition 22, and... Another first bearing 4 has a central channel, and the end of the second connecting shaft 74 is provided with a second slot (not shown in the figure). The second slot of the second connecting shaft 74 is engaged with a second locking member 8, so that the second locking member 8 limits the first bearing 4 to the second fixed post 74. Thus, when the second bearing 5 slides in the slide groove 72, the connecting body 21 can rotate around the second connecting shaft 74. In this embodiment, the bearing bracket uses two first bearings 4 instead of the bushing in the existing bearing bracket. The two first bearings 4 can maintain concentricity, thereby reducing the friction between the bearing bracket and the second connecting shaft 74 and increasing the service life and stability of the bearing bracket.
[0046] It should be noted that the bearing bracket provided by this utility model can be used not only in Figure 3 In the coin ejector head, other coin ejector heads that require existing bearing brackets, coin ejection tracks, etc., can also use the bearing bracket of this utility model, and can also be used on the motor.
[0047] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
