Detailed Implementation

[0025] Please see Figures 1-5In this embodiment of the utility model, a fishing game machine for amusement parks has a game machine body (1) as the main frame, in which various functional components are organically integrated.

[0026] The game console 1 has a retrieval box 8 at the bottom and a control panel 9 at the front, with a coin acceptor 7 installed on one side. Players insert game coins through the coin acceptor 7 to start the game. The control panel 9 has operation buttons on its surface, allowing players to control the movement and catching action of the fish-catching device 5. The retrieval port 10 is located on the control panel 9 and is connected to the drop channel 2. After a player successfully catches a fish, it is discharged from the retrieval port 10 through the drop channel 2, making it convenient for the player to obtain their loot.

[0027] The game console 1 has a fish tank 6 inside for storing water and fish. A fish-catching device 5 is installed above the fish tank 6. This device consists of a slide 24, a horizontal moving plate 23, a cylinder telescopic rod 22, and a fish-catching net 21. The slide 24 is inverted and fixedly installed on the top of the game console 1, providing a horizontal moving track for the entire fish-catching device 5. The horizontal moving plate 23 can slide left and right on the slide 24 via a drive mechanism, expanding the horizontal range of fish catching. The cylinder telescopic rod 22 is installed on the horizontal moving plate 23 via a drive mechanism, and the cylinder telescopic rod 22 has a track groove, allowing it to slide back and forth on the horizontal moving plate 23, further expanding the vertical range of fish catching. The fish-catching net 21 is installed at one end of the cylinder telescopic rod 22. By extending and retracting the cylinder telescopic rod 22, the vertical position of the fish-catching net 21 can be adjusted, achieving flexible omnidirectional catching.

[0028] The fishing net 21 includes an inner net 25 and an outer net 26. The inner net 25 is installed inside the outer net 26. The two are separate structures, forming a funnel shape when combined. The outer net 26 is connected to the mounting rod 33 via an outer net connecting piece 28. The inner net connecting piece 27 is hinged to the outer net connecting piece 28 via a pivot 30. A drive rod 29 is located above the inner net connecting piece 27. The drive rod 29 passes through the bottom of the mounting rod 33, and return springs 32 are connected to both sides of the drive rod 29. The other end of the return springs 32 is fixed to the mounting rod 33. A drive electromagnet 31 is installed at the lower end of the cylinder telescopic rod 22 and is connected to one end of the drive rod 29. When the driving electromagnet 31 is energized, it generates a magnetic force that attracts the driving rod 29, causing the inner net 25 to rotate around the rotating shaft 30, thus separating the inner net 25 from the outer net 26 and opening the fishing net bag 21 to achieve the grabbing action; after the driving electromagnet 31 is de-energized, the elastic force generated by the return spring 32 causes the driving rod 29 to return to its original position, and the fishing net bag 21 closes.

[0029] Inside the game machine 1, near the fish tank 6, a mounting bracket 3 is provided. A lower loading channel 2 is arranged below the front of the mounting bracket 3 to guide the caught fish towards the loading port 10. A fish bucket storage device 4 is embedded above the mounting bracket 3. This device includes a fish bucket storage channel 11, a micro-actuator 12, and a control device 13. The fish bucket storage channel 11 is used to store fish buckets 17. The control device 13 is installed on one side of its lower end, and the micro-actuator 12 is located on the other side. The control device 13 includes an electromagnet fixing plate 18, an upper electromagnet 19, and a lower electromagnet 20. The electromagnet fixing plate 18 is fixed to the side wall of the fish bucket storage channel 11. Two through holes are formed in the fish bucket storage channel 11 and the electromagnet fixing plate 18. Probes of the upper electromagnet 19 and the lower electromagnet 20 are respectively installed in the two through holes, allowing them to pass through and extend into the fish bucket storage channel 11. By controlling the energization and de-energization of the upper electromagnet 19 and the lower electromagnet 20, the release of the fish bucket 17 is controlled. The micro-actuator 12 includes a micro-body 14 and a micro-actuator 15. The micro-body 14 is fixed to the side wall of the fish bucket storage channel 11 by a micro-actuator fixing piece 16. One end of the micro-actuator 15 extends into the fish bucket storage channel 11 to record the number of fish buckets 17. When a fish bucket 17 falls, the micro-actuator 15 triggers a signal to record the number of falling buckets, which is convenient for staff to manage the fish buckets 17. When a fish bucket 17 needs to be released, the upper electromagnet 19 is activated first, so that the bottom fish bucket 17 falls onto the probe of the lower electromagnet 20. Then, the probe of the lower electromagnet 20 is activated to retract, and the fish bucket 17 can fall. The function of the upper electromagnet 19 and the lower electromagnet 20 is to ensure that only one fish bucket 17 can fall at a time.

[0030] The working principle of this invention is as follows: the player inserts game coins into the coin acceptor 7 on one side of the control panel 9. After the coin acceptor 7 detects the game coins, it sends a start signal to the game machine control system, and the game enters an operable state. The player issues commands to the control system through the operation buttons on the surface of the control panel 9 to control the movement and grabbing action of the fish-catching device 5.

[0031] The slide 24 of the fish-catching device 5 is installed upside down on the top of the game machine 1. The horizontal moving plate 23 slides left and right on the slide 24 through the drive mechanism, expanding the lateral range of the fish-catching. The cylinder telescopic rod 22 is installed on the horizontal moving plate 23 through another drive mechanism, and the track groove on the cylinder telescopic rod 22 allows it to slide back and forth on the horizontal moving plate 23. In conjunction with the telescopic action of the cylinder telescopic rod 22 itself, the fish-catching net 21 can be flexibly positioned in three-dimensional space, which can cover the fish in the fish tank 6 in all directions. The fish-catching net 21 consists of an inner net 25 and an outer net 26, which are hinged together by a pivot 30 to form a funnel shape. When the player issues a grabbing command through the operation button, the control system energizes the drive electromagnet 31 at the lower end of the cylinder telescopic rod 22, generating a magnetic force to attract the drive rod 29. The drive rod 29 drives the inner net 25 to rotate around the pivot 30, causing one end of the inner net 25 to separate from the outer net 26, and the fish-catching net 21 opens and covers the target fish. Then the electromagnet 31 is de-energized, and the elastic force generated by the return spring 32 causes the drive rod 29 to return to its original position, the fishing net 21 closes, and clamps the captured fish.

[0032] The fish bucket storage channel 11 is used to store fish buckets 17. The micro-motion pin 15 of the micro-motion device 12 extends into the fish bucket storage channel 11. When the fish bucket 17 is placed in the storage channel, the micro-motion pin 15 is triggered, and the micro-machine body 14 records the number of fish buckets 17, so that the staff can keep track of the inventory.

[0033] When fish bucket 17 needs to be replenished, the control system first activates the upper electromagnet 19, whose probe retracts, causing the bottom fish bucket 17 to fall onto the probe of the lower electromagnet 20. Then, the lower electromagnet 20 is activated, its probe retracts, and the fish bucket 17 falls into the fish tank 6. The upper electromagnet 19 and lower electromagnet 20 work alternately to ensure that only one fish bucket 17 falls at a time, achieving orderly replenishment.

[0034] Once the player successfully catches a fish, the fishing net 21 moves with the caught fish to the top of the drop channel 2. By controlling the fishing net 21 to open, the fish falls into the drop channel 2. The drop channel 2 guides the fish to the retrieval port 10 on the control panel 9, where the player can retrieve the caught fish and obtain the game reward.

[0035] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
