In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish multiple parts or structures with the same or similar structures, and do not indicate any special limitation on the arrangement order or connection relationship.

[0080] Please refer to Figures 1 to 14 This utility model embodiment provides a card dealing machine housing 100, which supports the overall structure of the card dealing machine 1000, protects its internal components, provides an operation and maintenance interface, and improves the product's appearance integrity and aesthetics. The card dealing machine housing 100 includes: an inner frame 110, a bottom shell 140, side shells 130, and a top shell 120. Specifically, the inner frame 110, bottom shell 140, side shells 130, and top shell 120 can all be injection molded from a material with a certain supporting strength.

[0081] The inner frame 110 has a card holder a for holding cards and a card delivery port b located in front of the card holder a.

[0082] The bottom shell 140 is installed at the bottom of the inner frame 110 and serves as the bottom support component of the card dealing machine housing 100.

[0083] The side shell 130 is arranged around the outside of the inner frame 110, and its lower end extends to the bottom of the inner frame 110 and is sandwiched between the inner frame 110 and the bottom shell 140. It has a card-dealing port j in front of the corresponding card-feeding port b.

[0084] The top shell 120 covers the upper ends of the inner frame 110 and the side shell 130.

[0085] The side shell 130 and the top shell 120 are provided with card-retrieving openings e that communicate with the card compartment a for retrieving and placing cards. Of course, in some other embodiments, only the side shell 130 or the top shell 120 may have card-retrieving openings e that communicate with the card compartment a for retrieving and placing cards. No specific limitation is made here.

[0086] The outer edge of the bottom shell 140 covers the lower peripheral wall of the side shell 130.

[0087] After assembly, the outer surfaces of the bottom shell 140, side shell 130 and top shell 120 transition smoothly and continuously in the height direction.

[0088] Since the card dealing machine housing 100 is composed of an inner frame 110, a bottom shell 140, a side shell 130, and a top shell 120, it has the advantages of convenient assembly and disassembly and low maintenance costs. Among them, the lower end of the side shell 130 extends towards the bottom of the inner frame 110 and is sandwiched between the inner frame 110 and the bottom shell 140, which enhances the stability of the overall structure. In addition, after assembly, the outer surfaces of the bottom shell 140, the side shell 130, and the top shell 120 achieve a continuous and smooth transition in the height direction, making the outline of the card dealing machine housing 100 more compact and unified, and improving the overall appearance and aesthetics.

[0089] To address the unstable connection between the side shell 130 and the bottom shell 140 and ensure the airtightness of the card dealing machine housing 100, optionally, please refer to... Figure 4 and Figure 7 In this embodiment, a stepped stop surface f is formed on the lower peripheral wall of the side shell 130, and the outer edge of the bottom shell 140 covers the lower peripheral wall of the side shell 130 and abuts against the stepped stop surface f. Through this structural design, the connection between the bottom shell 140 and the side shell 130 is more stable and less prone to loosening, while also facilitating a continuous and smooth transition between their outer surfaces.

[0090] To achieve the positioning and assembly of the inner frame 110, bottom shell 140, side shell 130, and top shell 120, optionally, please refer to... Figure 3 and Figure 4In this embodiment, a plurality of positioning grooves g are provided on the stepped stop surface f. Specifically, multiple positioning grooves are provided on the stepped stop surface f around the outer periphery of the side shell 130, and the outer edge of the bottom shell 140 is provided with positioning protrusions 141 that cooperate with the positioning grooves g. In this way, quick positioning and fixing can be achieved during the assembly of the bottom shell 140 and the side shell 130. The lower ends of the bottom shell 140 and the side shell 130 are fixed to the bottom of the inner frame 110 by first screws (not shown in the figure). Specifically, a plurality of first studs 111 are provided at the bottom of the inner frame 110, the side shell 130 is provided with first through holes o2 at the positions corresponding to the first studs 111, and the bottom shell 140 is provided with countersunk holes o3 at the positions corresponding to the first studs 111; the first screws pass through the countersunk holes o3 and the first through holes o2 and are threaded into the first studs 111 to fix the bottom shell 140, the side shell 130 and the inner frame 110. The upper edge of the side shell 130 is provided with several positioning slots h, and the outer edge of the top shell 120 is provided with corresponding positioning protrusions 121 that mate with the positioning slots h. This allows for quick positioning and fixing during the assembly of the top shell 120 and the side shell 130. The top shell 120 is fixed to the upper end of the inner frame 110 by a second screw (not shown in the figure). Specifically, the inner surface of the top shell 120 has a second stud 122, and the upper end of the inner frame 110 has a second through hole o1; the second screw passes through the second through hole o1 and is threaded into the second stud 122 to fix the upper end of the inner frame 110 to the top shell 120.

[0091] To enhance the visual hierarchy and aesthetics of the card dealer 1000, optionally in this embodiment, the color of the outer surface of the side shell 130 is different from the color of the outer surfaces of the bottom shell 140 and the top shell 120, so as to create a segmented visual effect. In this way, using color contrast to create a segmented visual effect can enhance the overall industrial design and aesthetics of the card dealer housing 100.

[0092] Please refer to Figures 1 to 14 Another aspect of this utility model embodiment provides a card dealing machine 1000, including the card dealing machine housing 100 as described above, with the card feeding port b located on the upper front side of the card storage a; it also includes a card receiving plate 200, an elastic support member, a card feeding mechanism 400, and a card dealing mechanism 500.

[0093] The card support plate 200 is located inside the card storage compartment a and can move up and down within the card storage compartment a to support the cards;

[0094] The card delivery mechanism 400 is located at the top of the card storage a and above the card receiving plate 200, and is used to deliver the topmost card in the card storage a to the card delivery port b.

[0095] The elastic support is located between the card holder plate 200 and the bottom of the card compartment a, and is used to provide upward elastic support for the card holder plate 200. The elastic support is used to provide upward elastic support to keep the top of the card close to the card feeding mechanism 400 and ensure continuous card feeding.

[0096] The card dealing mechanism 500 is located within the inner frame 110 and in the card dealing channel c between the card delivery port b and the card dealing port j, and is used to deal cards from the card dealing port j. Understandably, the card dealing mechanism 500 can deal cards delivered to the card dealing channel c by the card delivery mechanism 400 from the card dealing port j.

[0097] Understandably, the card dealing machine 1000 in this embodiment is an upper card dealing machine. Of course, in some other embodiments, the card dealing machine housing 100 can also be applied to a lower card dealing machine (not shown in the figure). The lower card dealing machine refers to the card dealing port j, the card feeding port b, the card dealing mechanism 500, and the card feeding mechanism 400, all of which are located at the lower part of the card dealing machine housing 100. Their specific structures can be referred to existing lower card dealing machines, and will not be elaborated on here.

[0098] Since the card dealing machine 1000 has all the structures and connections of the card dealing machine housing 100, it has all the advantages of the card dealing machine housing 100, which will not be elaborated here.

[0099] To allow the card holder 200 to be adjusted vertically according to the number of cards on it, optionally, please refer to... Figure 3 and Figure 10 In this embodiment, two sliding grooves d are provided on each of the left and right side walls of the card holder a, extending vertically. Specifically, the sliding grooves d are formed on the inner frame 110. Each sliding groove d contains a sliding rod 112; the card holder 200 extends towards the sliding groove d with a sliding sleeve 210, which is fitted onto the sliding rod 112, allowing the card holder 200 to slide smoothly up and down within the card holder a. The elastic support is a compression spring 300, fitted onto the sliding rod 112, with one end abutting against the sliding sleeve 210 and the other end abutting against the bottom of the sliding groove d. The arrangement of four sliding grooves d and four sliding rods 112 ensures the stability of the card holder 200 during vertical movement.

[0100] Alternatively, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 8 and Figure 11 In this embodiment, the card dealing mechanism 500 includes: a card dealing wheel 510, an elastic card pressing assembly 540, and a first motor 550.

[0101] The dealing wheel 510 is rotatably mounted within the inner frame 110 via the dealing shaft 520 and is located below the dealing channel c. Specifically, the dealing wheel 510 is fixed to the dealing shaft 520 and rotates with the dealing shaft 520.

[0102] The flexible card-pressing assembly 540 is located above the card-dealing wheel 510 and correspondingly on the upper side of the card-dealing channel c, and is used to cooperate with the card-dealing wheel 510 to clamp and transport the cards. Specifically, the flexible card-pressing assembly 540 includes: a card-pressing shaft 541 that is mounted inside the inner frame 110 and can float up and down; two torsion springs 542 that are respectively sleeved on both ends of the card-pressing shaft 541 and whose torsion feet abut against the upper side of the inner frame 110; and a card-pressing wheel 543 that is rotatably sleeved on the card-pressing shaft 541.

[0103] The first motor 550 is located on the side of the inner frame 110 and is connected to one side of the card dealing shaft 520 for power supply.

[0104] Alternatively, please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 11 In this embodiment, the card feeding mechanism 400 includes a card feeding wheel 410 and a card feeding shaft 420.

[0105] The card-feeding wheel 410 is rotatably mounted above the card-receiving plate 200 via the card-feeding shaft 420, and one end of the card-feeding shaft 420 is drively connected to one end of the card-dispensing shaft 520. Understandably, the card-feeding mechanism 400 and the card-dispensing mechanism 500 share a single power source, namely the first motor 550. Of course, in other embodiments, the card-feeding mechanism 400 may also be driven by an independent power source; no specific limitations are imposed here.

[0106] Optionally, the card dealing machine 1000 also includes a control circuit board 590. The control circuit board 590 is disposed between the inner frame 110 and the bottom shell 140, and is electrically connected to the card dealing mechanism 500 and the card feeding mechanism 400. Specifically, the control circuit board 590 is electrically connected to the first motor 550 and is used to control the operation of the card dealing mechanism 500 and the card feeding mechanism 400.

[0107] The card-feeding mechanism 400 has a slower card-dealing speed than the card-dealing mechanism 500. This allows for better control of the card-feeding rhythm and prevents card jamming or stacking within the card-dealing channel c. Specifically, this can be achieved by adjusting the speed ratio.

[0108] To avoid card stacking or other card issues within the dealing channel C, please refer to the following options: Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 11 In this embodiment, the card dealing machine 1000 further includes a card separating mechanism 600. The card separating mechanism 600 includes a card separating inclined surface m and a card limiting drive wheel 610.

[0109] The card-separating ramp m is angled upwards from the card-feeding port b towards the card-dealing port j, and is used to guide card separation. Understandably, the upward slope created by the card-separating ramp m causes multiple stacked cards advancing along the channel to automatically shift relative to each other, with the uppermost card continuing to be guided forward, thereby reducing overlap caused by adsorption or friction and facilitating subsequent separation.

[0110] The card-limiting drive wheel 610 is rotatably mounted within the inner frame 110 via a separating shaft 620 and is located above the card-separating inclined surface m. It is used to compress and guide the cards along the inclined surface m. One end of the separating shaft 620 is connected to the same side of the card-distributing shaft 520 for transmission, and the other end is normally connected to the card-feeding shaft 420 for transmission. In this embodiment, the card-limiting drive wheel 610 and the card-feeding wheel 410 rotate in the same direction, thereby guiding the cards.

[0111] In this way, the card-limiting drive wheel 610 actively applies pressure and exerts a continuous thrust on the cards, which allows the cards to move smoothly in a specific direction on the card-splitting slope m, and prioritizes the delivery of cards that are close to the card-limiting drive wheel 610. This effectively prevents multiple cards from being driven together and improves the card-splitting accuracy.

[0112] Understandably, in this embodiment, the license plate limiting drive wheel 610 shares a power source with the license plate issuing mechanism 500 and the license plate delivery mechanism 400, namely the first motor 550. Of course, in other embodiments, the license plate limiting drive wheel 610 may also be driven by an independent power source, which is not specifically limited here.

[0113] Specifically, please refer to Figure 11 In this embodiment, the output end of the first motor 550 is driven by a worm gear 560 meshing with a turbine 570 located at one end of the dealing shaft 520; the other end of the dealing shaft 520 is provided with a dealing shaft gear 530, which meshes with a first separation shaft gear 630 on the separation shaft 620 through a first intermediate gear 580; the other end of the separation shaft 620 is provided with a second separation shaft gear 640, which meshes with a card feeding shaft gear 430 on the card feeding shaft 420 through a second intermediate gear 650.

[0114] To address the issue of inaccurate card dealing caused by the lack of a "feedback mechanism" in traditional card dealing machines 1000, optionally, please refer to... Figure 8In this embodiment, the card dealing machine 1000 also includes a card dealing sensor 700. The card dealing sensor 700 is located within the inner frame 110, between the card limiting drive wheel 610 and the card dealing wheel 510, and is electrically connected to the control circuit board 590. It is used to sense the passage of cards through the card dealing channel c. Thus, through the cooperation of the card dealing sensor 700 and the control circuit board 590, closed-loop feedback control is achieved, accurately detecting whether each card has passed through the card dealing channel c, thereby achieving single-card dealing control and avoiding missed or excessive dealing. Specifically, in this embodiment, the card dealing sensor 700 includes a photoelectric transmitter 710 disposed on the upper side of the card dealing channel c, and a photoelectric receiver 720 correspondingly disposed on the lower side of the card dealing channel c. Of course, in other embodiments, infrared sensors, mechanically triggered sensors, etc., may also be used; no specific limitation is made here.

[0115] To enable the 1000 card dealing machine to deal cards accurately in multiple directions, optionally, please refer to... Figures 12 to 14 In this embodiment, the card dealing machine 1000 also includes a base 800 and a rotating mechanism.

[0116] The base 800 is located below the card dealing machine housing 100 and provides support. The rotating mechanism connects the base 800 and the card dealing machine housing 100 and drives the card dealing machine housing 100 to rotate relative to the base 800.

[0117] Specifically, the rotating mechanism includes: a central gear plate 910, a second motor 920, a planetary gear 940, and an elastic buffer assembly.

[0118] The central gear 910 is mounted within the base 800, with its upper end rotatably connected to the bottom of the card dealing machine housing 100. The second motor 920 is mounted within the card dealing machine housing 100 and electrically connected to the control circuit board 590. A planetary gear 940 is rotatably mounted within the card dealing machine housing 100, drivingly connected to the second motor 920 and meshing with the central gear 910. Optionally, the output shaft of the second motor 920 is driven by the planetary gear 940 via a reduction gearbox 930. The control circuit controls the rotation of the second motor 920. Thus, the second motor 920 drives the planetary gear 940 to rotate, which in turn rotates around the central gear 910, thereby causing the card dealing machine housing 100 to rotate relative to the base 800 around a predetermined axis.

[0119] An elastic buffer assembly is located between the rotating mechanism and the base 800 to buffer the impact of starting or stopping during rotational motion. That is, the elastic buffer assembly can absorb or buffer the mechanical impact force caused by instantaneous starting or stopping, thereby effectively reducing vibration and wear inside the rotating mechanism and / or between the rotating mechanism and the base 800.

[0120] Optionally, in this embodiment, the elastic buffer assembly includes: arc-shaped positioning holes o4, limiting posts 951, arc-shaped buffer grooves i, buffer springs 952, and positioning posts 953. Three arc-shaped positioning holes o4 are arranged in a circumferential array along the center of the central gear disk 910 on the base 800. Three limiting posts 951 are correspondingly located on the bottom surface of the central gear disk 910 to engage with the arc-shaped positioning holes o4. Three arc-shaped buffer grooves i are arranged in a circumferential array along the bottom surface of the central gear disk 910, and two buffer springs 952 are disposed in each arc-shaped buffer groove i. Three positioning posts 953 are correspondingly located within the base 800, and each positioning post 953 is respectively inserted into one arc-shaped buffer groove i and positioned between two buffer springs 952. Thus, upon startup, the second motor 920 rotates, driving the planetary gear 940 to rotate. The planetary gear 940 then pushes the central gear disk 910 to rotate until the limiting post 951 of the central gear disk 910 stops when it hits the end of the arc-shaped positioning hole o4 in the base 800. During this process, the positioning post 953 in the base 800 compresses the buffer spring 952 in the arc-shaped buffer groove i of the central gear disk 910 to buffer rigid impacts. After the planetary gear 940 stops, its rotation drives the main body of the card dealing machine 1000 to rotate around the base 800. The principle of the emergency stop process is similar and will not be elaborated further here. Of course, in other embodiments, the number of arc-shaped positioning holes o4, limiting posts 951, and arc-shaped buffer groove i can be one, two, four, or more, and no specific limitation is made here.
