Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mahjong machine technology, and in particular to a linkage-type card pushing and raising mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] As a common form of entertainment equipment, the automatic tile pushing and raising functions are core components of a mahjong machine. Traditional mahjong machines typically use separate drive systems to control the tile pushing and raising actions, a design that presents the following problems:
[0003] (1) Complex structure: The independent drive system leads to an increase in mechanical parts, which increases the size and manufacturing cost of the equipment.
[0004] (2) Incoordination of action sequence: The synchronization of pushing and raising cards is poor, which can easily lead to card blockage or delayed action, affecting the user experience.
[0005] (3) High energy consumption: Multi-drive systems require more energy input, which reduces the energy efficiency of the equipment.
[0006] (4) Difficult to maintain: The complex structure increases the failure rate and makes maintenance and repair more difficult. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The main objective of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies and provide a linked card pushing and raising mechanism. This mechanism effectively solves the problems of complex structure and uncoordinated operation of traditional mahjong machine card pushing and raising mechanisms, demonstrating significant technological advancement and practical value.
[0008] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to achieve its technical objective is: a linkage-type card pushing and lifting mechanism, including a card loading plate, a card loading wheel, a driven gear, a driving gear, a card lifting plate, and a delay component;
[0009] The driven gear and the driving gear are meshed and connected, and both are rotatably mounted inside the upper plate.
[0010] The card-feeding wheel is located on one side of the driven gear. The card-feeding wheel, driven by the driven gear through a delay component, pushes the mahjong tiles inside the card storage slot in the card-feeding tray.
[0011] The driven gear is connected to the lifting plate via a linkage rod on the other side. The linkage rod, driven by the driven gear through a delay component, pulls the lifting plate to move up and down.
[0012] As the driving gear rotates, the driven gear, in conjunction with the delay component, causes the card-adding wheel and the card-lifting plate to move together. As the card-adding wheel pushes the mahjong tiles, the card-lifting plate rises and falls, thus pushing and adding tiles.
[0013] Preferably, the delay component includes a linkage groove, one end of the linkage rod is linked to the linkage groove via a connecting pin, the connecting pin is rotatably disposed inside one end of the linkage rod, and the other end of the linkage rod is connected to the lifting plate in a transmission manner.
[0014] The linkage groove is located at the bottom of the driven gear and has a cam-shaped structure. Through its trajectory design, the linkage groove converts the rotational motion of the driven gear into the movement of the linkage rod along a specific path.
[0015] One end of the linkage rod is connected to the linkage slot via a connecting pin, and the other end is connected to the lifting plate drive. The connecting pin acts as a pivot point to ensure flexible linkage between the linkage rod and the linkage slot.
[0016] Preferably, the delay component includes a limiting groove, and one end of the linkage rod and the connecting pin are located inside the limiting groove. During the linkage process, the connecting pin and the linkage groove in the linkage rod cause the linkage rod to move along the trajectory of the linkage groove through the limiting groove, thereby limiting the movement trajectory of the linkage rod. As a result, the other end of the linkage rod drives the lifting plate to rise and fall through the transmission connection.
[0017] The limiting groove, located inside the upper plate, is a fan-shaped structure that accommodates one end of the linkage rod and the connecting pin. The limiting groove constrains the movement path of the linkage rod, ensuring it strictly follows the trajectory of the groove, thereby precisely controlling the lifting and lowering amplitude of the plate.
[0018] Preferably, the delay component further includes a cam groove, which is formed inside the upper plate and located below the bottom of the driven gear.
[0019] The cam groove works in conjunction with the linkage pin to assist in controlling the movement path of the linkage pin, further coordinating the timing of the actions of the plate-raising wheel and the plate-lifting plate.
[0020] Preferably, the delay component further includes a track groove and a sliding groove, which are formed inside the driven gear and are connected to each other.
[0021] The track groove is a rectangular groove that guides the vertical movement of the linkage pin. The sliding groove is an oblong groove that guides the horizontal movement of the linkage pin, together achieving the combined motion of the linkage pin.
[0022] Preferably, the delay component further includes a pulling groove, which is formed at the bottom of the plate-mounting wheel. The pulling groove cooperates with the cam groove, the track groove, and the sliding groove, and is configured as a curved structure that enables the plate-mounting wheel and the driven gear to move together.
[0023] The pull groove, through the movement of the linkage pin, pulls the card-feeding wheel to rotate, thus achieving the card-pushing action. Its curved design ensures that the card-feeding wheel only moves in specific phases, creating a delayed effect.
[0024] Preferably, a linkage pin is provided inside the cam groove, track groove, sliding groove and pulling groove. The linkage pin passes through the track groove and sliding groove, with one end located inside the cam groove and the other end located inside the pulling groove.
[0025] The linkage pin, as the core transmission component, links the movements of the cam groove, track groove, sliding groove, and pulling groove to transmit power and control the timing.
[0026] Preferably, a track plate is integrally connected to the linkage pin, and the track plate is slidably connected inside the track groove.
[0027] The track plate enhances the stability of the linkage pin in the track groove, ensuring its precise movement path and reducing shaking or deviation.
[0028] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0029] This linkage card pushing and lifting mechanism has a simplified structure. By using a delay component to link the card pushing and lifting actions, only one drive motor is needed to achieve both functions, reducing the number of parts and lowering manufacturing costs.
[0030] This linkage card pushing and raising mechanism has higher coordination in its movements. It uses a precisely designed trajectory structure such as cam groove and linkage groove to ensure that the timing of the card pushing and raising actions is highly matched, avoiding card jamming or lag in the action.
[0031] This linked card pushing and lifting mechanism is energy-efficient and highly effective. The single-drive system design significantly reduces energy consumption and improves the energy efficiency ratio of the equipment.
[0032] This linkage-type push-and-lift mechanism is easy to maintain. The simplified structure reduces the failure rate and facilitates disassembly and repair, thus extending the service life of the equipment.
[0033] This linkage card pushing and lifting mechanism features precise delay control. Through the cooperation of components such as the pulling groove and the limiting groove, it achieves precise delay control of the card pushing and lifting actions, further improving the stability and reliability of the equipment.

Detailed Implementation
[0052] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. However, it should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit its scope. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of the present utility model.
[0053] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that when an element is referred to as "fixed to" or "set on" another element, it can be directly on or indirectly on the other element. When an element is referred to as "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to or indirectly connected to the other element.
[0054] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center," "length," "width," "thickness," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the utility model product is in use. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third," etc., are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified. "Several" means one or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0055] In the description of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances. Example 1:
[0056] Please see Figures 1-16 A linkage-type card pushing and lifting mechanism includes a card loading plate 1, a card loading wheel 2, a driven gear 3, a driving gear 4, a card lifting plate 5, and a delay component;
[0057] Driven gear 3 and driving gear 4 are meshed and connected, and both are rotatably set inside the upper plate 1. The driving gear 4 is driven to rotate by a drive motor, and the driving gear 4 drives the driven gear 3 to rotate.
[0058] The card-loading wheel 2 is rotatably connected to the center of one side of the driven gear 3. The card-loading wheel 2, driven by the driven gear 3 through the delay component, pushes the mahjong tiles inside the card storage slot in the card-loading tray 1.
[0059] The driven gear 3 is connected to the lifting plate 5 via the linkage rod 6 on the other side. The lifting plate 5 is fixedly installed in the upper plate 1. The linkage rod 6, driven by the driven gear 3 through the delay component, pulls the lifting plate 5 to move up and down.
[0060] As the driving gear 4 drives the driven gear 3 to rotate, the driven gear 3, in conjunction with the delay component, causes the card-adding wheel 2 and the card-lifting plate 5 to move together. As the card-adding wheel 2 pushes the mahjong tiles, the card-lifting plate 5 rises and falls, thus pushing and adding tiles.
[0061] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the delay component includes a linkage groove 303, which is configured as a cam-shaped structure and is located at the bottom of the driven gear 3.
[0062] One end of the linkage rod 6 is linked to the linkage groove 303 through the connecting pin 601. The connecting pin 601 is rotatably set inside one end of the linkage rod 6, and the other end of the linkage rod 6 is connected to the lifting plate 5 for transmission.
[0063] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the delay component includes a limiting groove 102, which is configured as a fan-shaped structure and is opened inside the upper plate 1, and is located below the bottom of the driven gear 3.
[0064] One end of the linkage rod 6 and the connecting pin 601 are both located inside the limiting groove 102. During the linkage process, the connecting pin 601 and the linkage groove 303 in the linkage rod 6 move along the trajectory of the linkage groove 303 through the limiting groove 102, thereby limiting the movement trajectory of the linkage rod 6. As a result, the other end of the linkage rod 6 drives the lifting plate 5 to rise and fall through the transmission connection.
[0065] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the delay component also includes a cam groove 101, a track groove 301, a sliding groove 302, and a pulling groove 201;
[0066] The cam groove 101 is formed inside the upper plate and is located below the bottom of the driven gear 3.
[0067] Track groove 301 and sliding groove 302 are formed inside the driven gear 3, and track groove 301 and sliding groove 302 are connected. Track groove 301 is set in a rectangular groove and connects to the top of the driven gear 3. Sliding groove 302 is set in an oblong groove and connects to the bottom of the driven gear 3.
[0068] The pull groove 201 is formed at the bottom of the plate-mounting wheel 2. The pull groove 201 cooperates with the cam groove 101, the track groove 301, and the sliding groove 302, and is set as a curved structure that enables the plate-mounting wheel 2 and the driven gear 3 to generate linkage.
[0069] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a linkage pin 7 is provided inside the cam groove 101, the track groove 301, the sliding groove 302 and the pull groove 201. The linkage pin 7 passes through the track groove 301 and the sliding groove 302, with one end located inside the cam groove 101 and the other end located inside the pull groove 201.
[0070] The linkage pin 7 is integrally connected to the track plate 701, which is slidably connected inside the track groove 301.
[0071] Specifically, when the mahjong machine is in normal use, the tile-lifting plate 5 is in the raised state, that is, in the... Figures 1-7 As shown, when it is necessary to lower one end of the tile-raising plate 5 to push the mahjong tiles from the tile storage slot in the tile-raising tray 1 onto the mahjong table, that is, from... Figures 1-6 Towards Figures 12-16 During the transition;
[0072] The driving gear 4 drives the driven gear 3 to rotate. At this time, the driven gear 3 drives the linkage pin 7 to move from the middle end of the cam groove 101 to the lower end, that is, from the arc-shaped track of the cam groove 101 to the annular track. Meanwhile, the linkage pin 7 and the track plate 701 move from one end of the track groove 301 and the sliding groove 302 to the other end. The linkage pin 7 also moves from one end of the pulling groove 201 to the other end. With the cooperation of the linkage pin 7 and the pulling groove 201, the linkage pin 7 pulls the card-raising wheel 2 to rotate into the card storage slot to prepare to push the card. At the same time, during this process, the connecting pin 601 moves from one end of the linkage groove 303 to the other end, that is, from the V-shaped track of the linkage groove 303 to the annular track. With the cooperation of the linkage groove 303, the connecting pin 601 and the limiting groove 102, the linkage rod 6 moves from one end of the limiting groove 102 to the other end, thereby lowering one end of the card-raising plate 5.
[0073] After the components move in the manner described above, when it is necessary to push the mahjong tiles inside the storage slot, the driven gear 3 continues to rotate the loading wheel 2 through the linkage pin 7 and the pull groove 201 to push the mahjong tiles inside the storage slot.
[0074] When the mahjong tiles have finished being pushed, that is, from Figures 12-16 Towards Figures 7-11 During the transition, the linkage pin 7 will move from the upper end of the cam groove 101 to the middle end, that is, from the circular track of the cam groove 101 to the arc track. During this process, the linkage pin 7 and the track plate 701 move from the other end of the track groove 301 and the sliding groove 302 to one end. The linkage pin 7 then moves from the other end of the pull groove 201 to one end. Due to the curved structure of the pull groove 201, the linkage pin 7 only moves within the pull groove 201 and will not be linked with the pull groove 201, so the license plate wheel 2 stops moving and a delay occurs.
[0075] However, during this process, the connecting pin 601 moves from one end of the linkage groove 303 to the other end, that is, from the circular trajectory of the linkage groove 303 to the V-shaped trajectory. With the cooperation of the linkage groove 303, the connecting pin 601 and the limiting groove 102, the linkage rod 6 moves from one end of the limiting groove 102 to the other end, thereby raising one end of the lifting plate 5.
[0076] When you need to register your vehicle again, repeat the above steps.
[0077] It should be noted that although the above embodiments have been described herein, this does not limit the scope of patent protection for this utility model. Therefore, any changes and modifications made to the embodiments described herein based on the innovative concept of this utility model, or equivalent structural, procedural, or functional transformations made using the content of this utility model's specification and drawings, directly or indirectly applying the above technical solutions to other related technical fields, are all included within the scope of protection of this utility model patent.
