Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of card dealing machine technology, specifically to an intelligent card dealing machine. Background Technology

[0002] In bridge tournaments, four players per table compete in pairs, with multiple tables playing through rounds of competition, scoring, or elimination, ultimately determining the winning team according to certain rules. If cards are dealt randomly to each table in each round, the strength of the hands among players could vary significantly, making it impossible to measure the outcome and player skill using a uniform standard. Therefore, it's necessary to provide players in the same position at each table with the same hand in each round. For example, in the first round, all players at n tables receive identical hands for the south and north positions, and vice versa. This avoids the influence of luck in card dealing and improves the fairness of the competition. Differences in hand strength due to player position are addressed by other mechanisms and will not be elaborated upon further.

[0003] Compared to bridge tournaments, popular poker games like Guandan and Dou Dizhu often use random card dealing at each table. The uneven strength of hands at each table can affect the fairness of the game. Therefore, multiple dealing methods can be used to reduce the influence of luck. Furthermore, not only in tournaments but also in casual play, different players can choose the same hand for multiple dealing games, comparing the impact of different strategies on the game outcome. Dealing the same hand multiple times also allows for review and discussion of the game, increasing the playability, competitiveness, and intellectual challenge of poker. However, current tabletop card dealing machines cannot guarantee that the same cards will be dealt. Utility Model Content

[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other implementation methods obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0037] See Figures 1-7As shown, the present invention provides an intelligent card dealing machine, which includes a card storage compartment 5, a card dealing mechanism, an intelligent module and a rotating mechanism 13;

[0038] The card storage compartment 5 provides card storage space for the card dealing mechanism, and the rotating mechanism 13 can drive the card dealing mechanism to rotate so that the card dealing mechanism can deal cards in different positions;

[0039] The intelligent module includes a visual recognition module 7; the visual recognition module 7 is used to identify the suit and number of the cards sent and transmit the information to the main control board 20.

[0040] In this embodiment, the intelligent module further includes a card-dispensing sensor 14 and a position sensor module 8. The position sensor module 8 is used to detect and determine the position of the card-dispensing opening of the card-dispensing mechanism. The card-dispensing sensor 14 is used to detect whether there is a card at the card-dispensing opening position.

[0041] In this embodiment, as described above, a visual recognition module 7, a card-dispensing sensor 14, and a position sensor module 8 are provided and electrically connected to the main control board 20. The user can configure the settings to place the card above the visual recognition module 7. After recognition, the visual recognition module 7 transmits the recognized information to the main control board 20. Simultaneously, the position sensor module 8 also identifies the position of the card-dispensing opening of the card-dispensing mechanism and transmits the position information to the main control board 20. The main control board 20 will issue a command to the rotating mechanism 13 according to the user's settings. When the rotating mechanism 13 reaches the designated card-dispensing position, the card-dispensing mechanism starts, dispensing the card to the corresponding position. Alternatively, the card-dispensing mechanism can be started simultaneously with the rotation, as long as the card is dispensed after reaching the card-dispensing position. Once the cards are dealt, they can be played. In addition, the visual recognition module in this embodiment may also include a collection module, a processing module, and an information transmission module. The processing between the collection module, the processing module, and the information transmission module is a technology commonly used by those skilled in the field of control, so it will not be described in detail in this specification. This visual recognition module 7 can be a camera or a similar visual recognition module 7. In addition, the smart module may also include, for example, a Bluetooth control structure module or other modules, and can also be controlled by a mobile APP. In addition, according to customer needs, the card dealing information recognized by the visual recognition module 7 will be recorded in the storage card. When the same card needs to be sent, the main control board 20 will control the rotating mechanism 13 to rotate to the set position to meet the use of various games.

[0042] In this embodiment, a housing 1 is also included. The housing 1 includes a top cover 101, a card-holding cover assembly 102, an outer shell 103, a base 104, a rotating support 105, and a placement box 106. The top cover 101 is installed on the top of the outer shell 103. The outer shell 103 is rotatably installed on the base 104 via a rotating mechanism 13. One end of the card-holding cover assembly 102 is hinged to the outer shell 103, and the other end of the card-holding cover assembly 102 is fastened to the top cover 101. The rotating support 105 is installed inside the outer shell 103, and the placement box 106 is installed above the rotating support 105. The top cover 101, the outer shell 103, and the placement box 106 form a card storage compartment 5. The card-dealing mechanism is disposed inside the outer shell 103, and the card-dealing end of the card-dealing mechanism corresponds to the card-dealing opening of the outer shell 103.

[0043] In this embodiment, the outer shell 103 can be designed as a detachable outer shell 103, with the upper cover 101 covering the outer shell 103. One end of the card placement cover assembly 102 is hinged to the outer shell 103, and the other end of the card placement cover assembly 102 is fastened to the upper cover 101. The card placement cover assembly 102 is a snap-fit ​​connection for easy opening. In addition, the cards are placed in the card storage compartment 5. The card dealing mechanism retrieves cards from the card storage compartment and transmits them to the card dealing port of the outer shell 103 through the card dealing end of the card dealing mechanism.

[0044] In this embodiment, the rotating support 105 is provided with an identification part, and the visual recognition module 7 can identify the suit and number of points of the card through the identification part. The installation position of the visual recognition module 7 corresponds to the identification part. This identification part can be a notch provided in the rotating support 105, through which the visual recognition module 7 can identify the suit and number of points of the card. Alternatively, the identification part can be a transparent identification part, through which the suit and number of points of the card can be identified.

[0045] In this embodiment, the visual recognition module 7 is installed on the main control board 20 and is located between the main control board 20 and the rotating support 105.

[0046] In this embodiment, the rotating mechanism 13 includes a rotating motor 1304 and a rotating assembly. The rotating motor 1304 is installed in the space formed by the rotating support 105 and the placement box 106. The rotating assembly is installed below the rotating support 105. The rotating assembly includes a rotating active synchronous pulley 1301, a rotating synchronous belt 1302, and a rotating driven pulley 1303. The output end of the rotating motor 1304 is connected to the rotating active synchronous pulley 1301. The rotating active synchronous pulley 1301 drives the rotating driven pulley 1303 to rotate through the rotating synchronous belt 1302. The rotating driven pulley 1303 is rotatably installed on the rotating support 105, and the base 104 is fixedly connected. In this embodiment, the rotating mechanism includes a rotating motor and a rotating assembly. The rotating motor 1304 is mounted above the rotating support 105. When rotation is required, the main control board 20 controls the rotating motor 1304 to rotate. The rotating motor 1304 drives the rotating active synchronous wheel 1301 through its output end, which in turn drives the rotating driven wheel 1303 to rotate through the rotating synchronous belt 1302. Since the rotating driven wheel 1303 is fixedly mounted on the base 104, and the base 104 is placed on the operating table during use, the rotating driven wheel 1303 is driven to rotate by the rotating motor 1304. Due to the relative motion, the base 104 remains stationary, which drives the rotating support 105 to rotate, thereby driving the card dealing mechanism to rotate.

[0047] In this embodiment, the card dealing mechanism includes a card feeding friction wheel 6, a card pressing rod assembly 4, a card dealing drive device 9, and a card dispensing friction wheel assembly 11. The card feeding friction wheel 6 is rotatably mounted on the placement box 106 via the card dealing drive device 9, and the card feeding friction wheel 6 can extend out of the placement box 106. The card pressing rod assembly 4 is hinged to the upper cover 101 via a torsion spring and is used to press the cards to be dealt. The card dispensing friction wheel assembly 11 is located behind the card feeding friction wheel 6. After the cards are conveyed to the card dispensing friction wheel assembly 11 via the card feeding friction wheel 6, they are dispensed through the card dealing port. It can be understood that the card pressing rod assembly 4 can generate pressure through the torsion spring, thereby cooperating with the card feeding friction wheel 6 to press the cards and deliver them onto the card dispensing friction wheel assembly 11, so as to complete the process of the cards being conveyed to the card dispensing friction wheel assembly 11 via the card feeding friction wheel 6 and then dispensed through the card dealing port.

[0048] In this embodiment, the card dealing drive assembly includes a drive motor 901, a first synchronous belt 902, a card feeding synchronous wheel 903, an active synchronous wheel 904, and a card dispensing synchronous wheel 905. The card feeding synchronous wheel 903 is installed at both ends of the card feeding friction wheel 6, and the active synchronous wheel 904 is installed at one end of the drive motor 901. The input end of the card feeding friction wheel 6 and the active synchronous wheel 904 are connected through the first synchronous belt 902 to drive the drive motor 901. The drive motor 901 drives the card feeding friction wheel 6 to rotate through the first synchronous belt 902. The card dispensing friction wheel assembly 11 includes an active card dispensing friction wheel 1101 and an upper roller 1102. The output end of the card feeding friction wheel 6 is connected to the card dispensing synchronous wheel 905 of the active card dispensing friction wheel 1101 through a synchronous wheel. The active card dispensing friction wheel 1101 is rotatably installed in the placement box 106, and the upper roller 1102 is installed directly above the active card dispensing friction wheel 1101 through a support fixing member 18. In this embodiment, the power source of the card dealing mechanism is a drive motor 901, which drives the card feeding and dealing actions through a two-stage synchronous belt. The structure is compact and reasonable, significantly reducing the overall size of the card dealing mechanism. In addition, this utility model can also realize the card feeding and dealing actions through a reasonably arranged gear transmission method, or through a combination of gears and synchronous belts.

[0049] In this embodiment, the drive motor 901 is mounted on the support fixture 18. This mounting is detachable.

[0050] In this embodiment, the card holder assembly 102 includes a button 1021, a door cover 1022, a torsion spring 1023, and a pressure block 1024. One end of the door cover 1022 is provided with a mounting shaft, and the torsion spring 1023 is mounted on the shaft. The pressure block 1024 is provided with a shaft hole and a fixing hole. The shaft is mounted in the shaft hole, and the pressure block 1024 is mounted on the outer casing 103 through the fixing hole via a fixing member. The other end of the door cover 1022 is snapped onto the button 1021. Pressing the button 1021 allows one end of the door cover 1022 to detach from the button 1021. When placing cards, pressing the button 1021 on the door cover 1022 opens the torsion spring 1023 at the bottom of the door cover 1022, allowing the cards to be placed from the door cover 1022 into the card compartment.

[0051] This embodiment also includes a display screen 2 and a button assembly 3. The display screen 2 is embedded in the upper cover 101, and the button assembly 3 is disposed on the upper cover 101. Both the display screen 2 and the button assembly 3 are electrically connected to the main control board 20. The display screen 2 can be a touch display screen 2 or other types of display screen 2, which can be selected as needed. If it is a regular display screen 2, it can be adjusted via the button assembly 3. The function of the button assembly 3 can be set as needed. These solutions are all relatively mature existing technologies and will not be described in detail. The display screen 2 allows for interactive operation, making it convenient to use.

[0052] This embodiment also includes a card-dispensing block assembly 10, which includes an adjusting bolt 1001, an adjusting spring 1002, and a block 1003. The block 1003 is adjustablely mounted on the support fixing member 18 via the adjusting spring 1002, and the block 1003 is located between the card-feeding friction wheel 6 and the card-dispensing friction wheel assembly 11, closer to the card-dispensing friction wheel assembly 11. In this embodiment, the card-dispensing block assembly 10 is fixed to the support fixing member 18 by the adjusting bolt 1001, and the adjusting spring 1002 is compressed between the block 1003 and the support fixing member 18. The adjusting bolt 1001 can be adjusted according to the thickness of the paper. Furthermore, the block 1003, positioned between the card-feeding friction wheel 6 and the card-dispensing friction wheel assembly 11, closer to the card-dispensing friction wheel assembly 11, effectively ensures the number of cards dispensed and guarantees the uniqueness of each card dispensed.

[0053] In this embodiment, a supplementary light 17 is also included. The supplementary light 17 is mounted on the rotating support 105 and provides supplementary lighting for the visual recognition module 7. The supplementary light 17 is electrically connected to the main control board 20. The supplementary light 17 can provide better brightness for the visual recognition system, resulting in better recognition performance.

[0054] In this embodiment, the card-dispensing sensor 14 is located at the card-dispensing port and is electrically connected to the main control board 20. This card-dispensing sensor 14 is a top-bottom pair sensor or a similar sensor, used to detect the number of cards dispensed during dealing and to determine if there is a card jam. When a card jam is encountered, the main control board 20 stops the card-dispensing motor and reverses for a certain period of time, then repeats the card-dispensing action. If no cards enter the card-dispensing port after several repetitions, it is considered that there are no more cards to be dispensed.

[0055] In this embodiment, two pre-compression springs 12 are also included, each with a different elastic force. The support fixing member 18 is provided with a pre-compression spring 12 mounting part and an upper roller 1102 mounting part. The upper roller 1102 mounting part is an elongated hole. The pre-compression spring 12 is installed in the pre-compression spring 12 mounting part and is close to the upper roller 1102. The pre-compression springs 12 are of different sizes to ensure that the upper roller 1102 will be raised to a certain height when the card is played. Only one side needs to be raised to ensure that the card and the card-playing upper roller 1102 are always in a compressed state, so that the card can be played smoothly. In addition, the position of the spring can be changed, or a torsion spring can be used instead, or a single elastic roller can be used.

[0056] In this embodiment, the position sensor module 8 is a magnetic sensor. A magnet is fixed on the base plate, and a position sensor is formed with the magnetic sensor attached to the main board. It is used to detect the location of the card dealing port, so as to facilitate the distribution of cards at different locations. In addition, the position sensor module 8 can use a photoelectric sensor and multiple light-blocking teeth to determine the position. This solution is a relatively mature solution in the field, and this utility model will not describe it in detail.

[0057] In this embodiment, a speaker module 19 is also provided, which is electrically connected to the main control board 20 and is used for voice control of card dealing.

[0058] This embodiment also includes a battery 15 and a vision control board 16. The battery 15 powers the card dealer, and the vision control board 16 is electrically connected to the vision recognition module 7 and the main control board 20. In this embodiment, a vision control board 16 can be set up on the basis of the main control board 20. The vision control board 16 is mainly used to control the vision recognition module 7 and record and store the information recognized by the vision recognition module 7. In this way, the manufacturing cost of the main control board 20 can be effectively reduced by controlling it separately through dual motherboards.

[0059] In this embodiment, the visual recognition module 7 is installed on the main control board 20, and the fill light 17 is installed on the main control board 20.

[0060] The beneficial effects are as follows: 1. This utility model, through a card dealing machine with a rotating mechanism 13, utilizes a visual recognition module 7 to identify playing cards and deal designated cards to players at designated positions. It can also deal designated cards to designated players according to a hand pattern, enabling multiple-player card games. 2. A magnetic sensor continuously detects the position and angle of the card-dispensing opening, allowing the opening to stop at any angle, accommodating games with a larger number of players. 3. A single drive motor 901, using a synchronous belt, enables card delivery and dealing, resulting in a compact and reasonable structure that reduces design space. 4. This utility model includes an adjustable card-dispensing stop assembly 10, which can be adjusted according to the thickness of the card paper to ensure the number of cards dealt each time. 5. By designing a card-dispensing sensor 14 and cooperating with the main control board 20, a reversing strategy can be used to adjust the position of the playing cards, effectively solving the problem of card jamming. If no playing card enters the dealing slot after the card-dealing drive motor 901 has been running continuously for a certain period of time, it is considered that a card jam has occurred. The card-dealing motor stops and reverses for a certain period of time, then repeats the card-dealing action. If no playing card enters the dealing slot after several repetitions, it is considered that there are no more playing cards to be dealt. 6. Using pre-compression springs 12: Two pre-compression springs 12 with different pressure values ​​are set at both ends of the upper roller 1102. The pre-compression springs 12, one large and one small, are set to ensure that the upper roller 1102 will be raised to a certain height when playing cards. Only one side needs to be raised to ensure that the cards and the card-dealing roller are always in a compressed state, so that the cards can be dealt smoothly.

[0061] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
