Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of card sorting machine technology, specifically to a foldable card sorting table and card sorting machine. Background Technology

[0002] To facilitate transportation and save storage space when not in use, existing card-sorting tables typically have the table body hinged to the top of the table legs. During transportation or storage, the tabletop is folded along the hinge, so that the bottom of the table body fits against one side of the table legs, thus achieving the purpose of convenience and space saving during transportation and storage.

[0003] However, in the prior art, the base of the table legs of the mahjong table is usually a non-foldable mechanism. Although the area of ​​the base is smaller than that of the tabletop, after the tabletop is folded, the protruding base, located on the side opposite to the tabletop, still occupies a certain amount of space. The existing patent application number 202121317941.X discloses a foldable table frame and its mahjong machine. When the foldable table frame is folded and retracted, the telescopic frame of the base moves into the positioning frame under the action of the rope to reduce the space occupied by the base. When the foldable table frame is flipped and unfolded, the telescopic frame is pushed out of the positioning frame by the spring. This patent has a complex structure, is easily damaged, and the pop-out of the telescopic frame when unfolded may accidentally injure the user. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a mahjong table with a better base folding method. Utility Model Content

[0044] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of this utility model, but not all embodiments.

[0045] In this document, terms such as "upper," "lower," "inner," and "outer" are established based on the positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. Depending on the drawings, the corresponding positional relationships may also change. Therefore, they should not be interpreted as an absolute limitation on the scope of protection. Moreover, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish one component from another that has the same name, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these components.

[0046] Example 1

[0047] See Figure 1-3 This embodiment provides a foldable card arrangement table, including table legs 1 and a table body 2 that is rotatably mounted on the table legs 1. The base 11 of the table legs 1 includes a fixed base plate 111 and a rotatable base plate 112 that is rotatably connected to the fixed base plate 111. A connecting rod 3 is provided between the table body 2 and the rotatable base plate 112. When the table body 2 is rotatably rotated, the connecting rod 3 is driven to rotate the rotatable base plate 112.

[0048] When the card arrangement table needs to be folded for storage, the user controls the table body 2 to flip and fold downwards. At the same time, the flipping and folding of the table body 2 causes the connecting rod 3 to move. The movement of the connecting rod 3 will cause the flipping base plate 112 to flip upwards to reduce the space occupied by the base 11. When the card arrangement table needs to be unfolded, the user controls the table body 2 to flip upwards. At the same time, the flipping and folding of the table body 2 causes the connecting rod 3 to move. The movement of the connecting rod 3 will cause the flipping base plate 112 to flatten downwards until it is flush with the fixed base plate 111. The upward and downward flipping of the flipping base plate 112 is controlled synchronously by the table body 2 through the connecting rod 3, making the operation simple.

[0049] Further, see Figure 1-3 One end of the connecting rod 3 is hinged to the table body 2, and the other end is hinged to the flip-up base plate 112. When the table body 2 flips, it moves the connecting rod 3, causing the angle between the connecting rod 3 and the table body 2 to change. The connecting rod 3 then causes the flip-up base plate 112 to flip, which can be understood as similar to a linkage mechanism. The connecting rod 3 can be directly hinged to the bottom of the table body 2, or it can be hinged by setting a hinge seat on the table body 2, depending on the actual needs.

[0050] Further, see Figure 1-2 The table leg 1 also includes a support leg 12 mounted on the base 11. The bottom of the table body 2 is hinged to the support leg 12 only on one side to ensure that the table body 2 can be flipped downwards. After the table body 2 is flipped downwards, it is flush with or close to the support leg 12, reducing the space occupied. Preferably, the hinge point between the support leg 12 and the table body 2 is located in the middle or on the flipped side, where the flipped side refers to the side of the table body 2 that is offset relative to the support leg 12. More preferably, the support leg 12 is hinged at the middle position of the bottom of the table body 2 to avoid instability of the center of gravity when flipping and to prevent the table body 2 from bulging laterally out of the base 11 after flipping.

[0051] Understandably, in order to reduce space occupation by allowing part of the base 11 to be flipped and folded, the support leg 12 is not located in the flip-and-foldable part (the flip-down base plate 112 in this embodiment). It is preferable to have only one support leg 12, or as... Figure 10 As shown, each side has one support leg 12. When there are two or more support legs, each support leg 12 has one or more connecting rods 3 inside or near it, or one or more connecting rods 3 are located between or outside two or more support legs 12, depending on the situation. In this embodiment, taking one support leg 12 as an example, the center of gravity of the table body 2 is located on the center of gravity of the support leg 12 to ensure the stability of the card-sorting table. The bottom of the support leg 12 and the table body 2 can be provided with a hinge seat or other structure for the two to cooperate and rotate. Preferably, the width of the hinge seat is greater than the width of the support leg 12 to increase the load-bearing range, making the table body 2 more stable on the support leg 12.

[0052] Further, see Figure 1The connecting rod 3 passes through the interior of the support leg 12 and connects to the flip base plate 112, making the connection rod 3 less obtrusive and more aesthetically pleasing. Alternatively, the connecting rod 3 can be positioned adjacent to the support leg 12 and connected to the flip base plate 112, depending on the actual shape and structure of the support leg 12. Preferably, the support leg 12 is a hollow structure, and the connection point between the flip base plate 112 and the fixed base plate 111 is close to the support leg 12, maximizing the support range of the support leg 12. Each support leg 12 has one or more connecting rods 3 inside or near it.

[0053] Furthermore, the connection point between the connecting rod 3 and the table body 2 and the connection point between the connecting rod 3 and the flip base plate 112 are equidistant from the center line of the card table and are in opposite directions, making the flip base plate 112 more stable when driven by the connecting rod 3.

[0054] Further, see Figure 1 The connecting rod 3 is located on the outside of the hinge between the table body 2 and the support leg 12. This side is the flip side, so that the connecting rod 3 can be driven after the table body 2 is partially flipped, thereby enhancing the control of the table body 2 over the connecting rod 3.

[0055] Further, see Figure 1 The bottom of the support leg 12 has a receiving notch 123. After the flip-top base plate 112 is flipped and folded, it is located in the receiving notch 123, which increases the area of ​​the base 11 occupied by the flip-top base plate 112 and reduces the space occupied by the card table after it is folded.

[0056] Further, see Figure 1 The support leg 12 has an avoidance notch 124 on the flipped side. After the table body 2 is flipped and folded, the protruding structure at the bottom of the table body 2 is located within the avoidance notch 124, preventing interference between the support leg 12 and the table body 2 during folding. Typically, the bottom of the table body 2 of a card sorting machine includes a base plate and a housing protruding from the base plate to accommodate the card sorting mechanism. See [preferred image / reference]. Figure 1-2 There are two clearance gaps, one for accommodating the bottom chassis and the other for accommodating the outer frame of the card sorting machine.

[0057] Further, see Figure 1 The flip-up base plate 112 and / or the fixed base plate 111 are provided with support feet 13, preferably the support feet 13 are casters or swivel wheels, which facilitates the user's movement.

[0058] Further, see Figure 2 , 6The flip-up base plate 112 and the fixed base plate 111 are connected by a connecting shaft, a four-bar linkage, or a hinge. When connected by a connecting shaft, the connecting shaft can pass through the flip-up base plate 112, or a connecting bracket can be provided at the bottom of both the flip-up base plate 112 and the fixed base plate 111, with the connecting bracket of the flip-up base plate 112 connected to the connecting bracket of the fixed base plate 111 via the connecting shaft. When connected by a four-bar linkage or a hinge, the connection is located near the outer edge of the fixed base plate 111.

[0059] Further, see Figure 2-4 The flip-up base plate 112 is provided with an extension 1121 extending toward the support leg 12. The extension 1121 is connected to the connecting rod 3, reducing the distance of the connecting rod 3 relative to the support leg 12. The connecting rod 3 can be hidden inside the support leg 12, enhancing aesthetics. Preferably, the extension 1121 is located at the bottom of the support leg 12.

[0060] Furthermore, the length of the extension 1121 extending into the fixed base plate 111 is less than or equal to the height of the support foot 13, so as to avoid interference between the extension 1121 and the ground when the flip base plate 112 is flipped, thus affecting the flipping of the flip base plate 112.

[0061] Further, see Figure 5 The fixed base plate 111 and / or the flip base plate 112 have a relief groove 1123 for the connecting rod 3 to move or accommodate the connecting rod 3, so as to avoid interference between the fixed base plate 111 and / or the flip base plate 112 and the connecting rod 3.

[0062] Further, see Figure 5 The support leg 12 and the table body 2 are provided with a buckle 5 or a latch to restrict the table body 2 from flipping, so as to prevent the table body 2 from accidentally flipping when it is unfolded due to the weight on the flipped side.

[0063] Further, see Figure 2 The support leg 12 is provided with a flexible shell 6 that connects to the table body 2. When the table body 2 is flipped and folded, the flexible shell 6 extends along with the table body 2, so as to prevent the end face of the support leg 12 from being exposed after the table body 2 is folded, thus increasing the aesthetics.

[0064] Example 2

[0065] In this embodiment, the parts that are the same as in Embodiment 1 are given the same reference numerals, and the same text descriptions are omitted.

[0066] Compared to Embodiment 1, the foldable card organizing table provided in this embodiment has the following structural design differences:

[0067] See Figure 6-8The table body 2 is equipped with a first transmission gear 41, and the flip-top base 112 is equipped with a second transmission gear 42. The connecting rod 3 has reversing gears 31 at both ends that mesh with the first transmission gear 41 and the second transmission gear 42, respectively. When the table body 2 flips, it drives the first transmission gear 41 to rotate. The rotation of the first transmission gear 41 drives the connecting rod 3 to rotate, which in turn drives the second transmission gear 42 to rotate. The rotation of the second transmission gear 42 then causes the flip-top base 112 to flip. The support leg 12 and the fixed base 111 are equipped with limiting components to restrict the displacement of the connecting rod 3, ensuring that the connecting rod 3 can only rotate axially. These limiting components can be bearings, etc.

[0068] Example 3

[0069] In this embodiment, the parts that are the same as in Embodiments 1 and 2 are given the same reference numerals, and the same text descriptions are omitted.

[0070] Compared to Embodiments 1 and 2, the foldable card-sorting table provided in this embodiment has the following structural design differences:

[0071] See Figure 9 To improve the stability of the card-arranging table, the support leg 12 includes a first leg 121 and two or more second legs 122 mounted on the first leg 121. The table body 2 is hinged to the second legs 122, which extend outward relative to the first leg 121 to increase the support range. Specifically, the support leg 12 can be a single leg, in a Y-shape or claw shape, or two legs can be provided on the left and right sides. Each support leg 12 is provided with one or more connecting rods 3 connected to the same side of the flip-up base plate 112.

[0072] Further, see Figure 9 The connecting rod 3 is located between two or more of the second legs 122, and can be connected to the table body 2 via a connecting seat (which can be a hinged seat or a gear seat with a transmission gear). The other end of the connecting rod 3 passes through the first leg 121 and connects to the flip-up base plate 112, which enhances the aesthetics and also prevents the user's feet from touching the connecting rod 3.

[0073] Example 4

[0074] In this embodiment, the parts that are the same as in Embodiments 1, 2, and 3 are given the same reference numerals, and the same text descriptions are omitted.

[0075] Compared to embodiments one, two, and three, the foldable card-sorting table provided in this embodiment has the following structural design differences:

[0076] See Figure 10The flip-up base plate 112 has an extension portion 1122 that extends into the fixed base plate 111. The flip-up base plate 112 and the fixed base plate 111 are in a concave-convex fit. When the flip-up base plate 112 and the fixed base plate 111 are hinged together by a connecting shaft, the connecting shaft is located on the side of the extension portion 1122 closer to the main body of the flip-up base plate 112. When the flip-up base plate 112 and the fixed base plate 111 are connected by a hinge, the hinge is located at another position outside the extension portion 1122. Preferably, the length of the extension portion 1122 is less than or equal to the height of the support leg 13 to avoid interference between the flip-up base plate 112 and the ground during flipping, which would affect the flipping process.

[0077] Furthermore, the connecting rod 3 is connected to the extension end of the extension portion 1122, reducing the distance of the connecting rod 3 relative to the support leg 12. The connecting rod 3 can be hidden inside the support leg 12, enhancing the aesthetics.

[0078] Example 5

[0079] In this embodiment, the parts that are the same as those in Embodiments 1, 2, 3, and 4 are given the same reference numerals, and the same text descriptions are omitted.

[0080] See Figure 1-2 Compared with embodiments one, two, three, and four, this embodiment provides a card sorting machine, including a foldable card sorting table, wherein the body of the card sorting machine is equivalent to the table body 2.

[0081] When the card sorting machine is a mahjong machine, the machine body includes a base plate connected to the support leg 12, a table, and a card shuffling device set between the base plate and the table for shuffling cards, a card feeding device for picking up mahjong cards one by one from the shuffling tray and feeding them out, a card stacking device for stacking two mahjong cards into a pile, a card pushing device for pushing mahjong cards into the card storage slot, and a card lifting device for feeding the arranged piles of mahjong cards onto the table. The specific structure of the card feeding device can be found in patent documents with publication numbers CN105413161A, CN106492454A, and CN106669142A. The card stacking device and the card pushing device can be implemented by a single stacking and pushing device (stacking and pushing head). The specific structure of the stacking and pushing device can be found in patent documents with publication numbers CN107661626A, CN201906453U, CN201949619U, CN103861280A, CN204699375U, CN106492454A, and CN107661626A.
