[0030] Example 1

[0031] like Figure 1-7 As shown, this embodiment proposes a button mechanism for a gaming device, comprising:

[0032] Mounting base 1 has an inverted U-shaped structure. A rotary motor 2 is fixedly mounted on the top side of the interior of mounting base 1 via a motor mounting bracket.

[0033] An annular mounting base 7 is embedded and fixed on the top of the mounting base 1. The top of the mounting base 1 has an insertion hole for embedding and fixing the outer side of the annular mounting base 7. A drive shaft 8 is rotatably mounted on the inner side of the annular mounting base 7. A bearing A is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the annular mounting base 7, and the inner ring of the bearing A is fixedly fitted with the outer side of the drive shaft 8. Through the setting of the bearing A, the annular mounting base 7 and the drive shaft 8 can be rotatably mounted.

[0034] The same transmission assembly is installed at the bottom end of the drive shaft 8 and on the output shaft of the rotary motor 2. The transmission assembly includes a bevel gear A3 fixedly installed on the output shaft of the rotary motor 2 and a bevel gear B4 fixedly installed at the bottom end of the drive shaft 8. The bevel gear B4 and the bevel gear A3 mesh with each other. The rotary motor 2 and the transmission assembly cooperate with each other. The rotary motor 2 uses the meshing of the bevel gear B4 and the bevel gear A3 to drive the drive shaft 8 to rotate inside the annular mounting base 7.

[0035] The button height control component cooperates with the transmission component and is installed and fixed on the inner top of the mounting base 1;

[0036] Follower plate 10 is located above an annular mounting base 7. The button height control component is used to limit the distance that the follower plate 10 can move up and down. The bottom of the follower plate 10 contacts multiple limit seats 9 fixed to the top of the annular mounting base 7. Two symmetrically arranged sliders 1001 are integrally provided on the inner side wall of the follower plate 10.

[0037] The rotating grooved wheel 18 is fixedly mounted on the top outer side of the drive shaft 8. The outer side of the rotating grooved wheel 18 has a cylindrical structure and a groove 1801 that slides in cooperation with two sliders 1001. In the rotating state, the rotating grooved wheel 18 provides a driving force for vertical movement of the follower plate 10 through the cooperation of the groove 1801 and the two sliders 1001. Through the cooperation of the rotating grooved wheel 18 and the sliders 1001, the rotation of the rotating grooved wheel 18 is converted into the vertical movement of the follower plate 10.

[0038] The key cover 11 is fixedly installed above the follower plate 10. A fixed bracket 12 is movably fitted on the outer side of the key cover 11 and fixedly installed on the top of the mounting base 1. A reinforcing top plate 13 is also fixed on the top of the fixed bracket 12 and movably fitted on the outer side of the key cover 11. Both the reinforcing top plate 13 and the fixed bracket 12 have a guide hole for vertical sliding of the key cover 11. The fixed bracket 12 has an inverted U-shaped structure. Through the setting of the guide hole, the key cover 11 can slide vertically on the inner side wall of the guide hole when it moves vertically.

[0039] A buffer guide assembly is mounted on the follower plate 10 and the annular mounting base 7. The buffer guide assembly is used to buffer, protect and guide the vertically moving follower plate 10.

[0040] It should be noted that: both sides of the bottom of the mounting base 1 are integrally provided with outer edges, and the top of the outer edges is reserved with fixing holes. The mounting base 1 is fixedly installed in the position where the game equipment needs to be installed by cooperating with the fixing holes on the outer edges and external bolts.

[0041] The left and right sides of the slide 1801 are both designed with an inverted V-shape, and these two positions are symmetrically arranged; the front and rear sides of the slide 1801 are both designed with a V-shape, and these two positions are symmetrically arranged.

[0042] The output shaft of the rotary motor 2 can rotate under the action of external force.

[0043] Furthermore, the button height control component includes a low-position photosensitive eye 5 for limiting the lowest position of the button descent and a high-position photosensitive eye 6 for limiting the highest position of the button rise. Both the low-position photosensitive eye 5 and the high-position photosensitive eye 6 are mounted and fixed on the inner top of the mounting base 1. Both the low-position photosensitive eye 5 and the high-position photosensitive eye 6 are electrically connected to the control terminal of the rotary motor 2. The low-position photosensitive eye 5 and the high-position photosensitive eye 6 are equipped with the same baffle A801 ​​fixed on the outside of the drive shaft 8. When the high-position photosensitive eye 6 detects the baffle A801, it controls the rotary motor 2 to pause.

[0044] Furthermore, the buffer guide assembly includes a guide hole in the annular mounting base 7, a guide shaft 16 fixed to the bottom of the follower plate 10 is vertically placed in the guide hole, and a spring 17 is movably fitted on the outer side of the guide shaft 16. The spring 7 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the guide hole. Through the cooperation of the guide shaft 16, the spring 17 and the mounting hole in the top of the annular mounting base 7, when the button of the toy is pressed, the spring 17 can provide a better buffering effect for the guide shaft 16 and the follower plate 10.

[0045] Furthermore, a strip-shaped through hole 1201 is reserved on the right side of the fixing frame 12. Inside the strip-shaped through hole 1201, a baffle B15 is horizontally arranged and fixedly installed at the bottom of the follower plate 10. The rear side of the baffle B15 is fitted with a first sensor photoelectric sensor 14 and a second sensor photoelectric sensor 1401. The first sensor photoelectric sensor 14 and the second sensor photoelectric sensor 1401 are arranged vertically and fixed on the right side of the fixing frame 12.

[0046] Working principle: When the button mechanism is in its initial state, the baffle A801 ​​of the drive shaft 8 is in the sensing position of the low-position photosensitive eye 5, and the button cover 11 is in its initial state without being raised. When the game device sends a rising command, the rotary motor 2 starts to rotate forward. The rotary motor 2 drives the bevel gear B4 to rotate through the bevel gear A3. The bevel gear B4 drives the drive shaft 8 to rotate inside the annular mounting base 7. The drive shaft 8 drives the baffle A801 ​​to move away from the sensing position of the low-position photosensitive eye 5. The rotating drive shaft 8 also drives the rotating groove wheel 18 to rotate. The rotating groove wheel 18 drives the slide 1801 to rotate. The rotating slide 1801 is located between the two sliders 1001. With the cooperation of the follower plate 10, the follower plate 10 moves upward. The follower plate 10 also moves the guide vertical shaft 16 and the button housing 11 to an upward position. When the guide vertical shaft 16 moves upward with the follower plate 10, the follower plate 10 also moves the baffle B15 to an upward position within the strip-shaped perforation 1201, so that the baffle B15 leaves the detection position of the lower second sensor 1401 until the baffle A801 ​​on the drive shaft 8 moves to the detection position of the high position sensor 6. At this time, the high position sensor 6 controls the rotary motor 2 to stop. At this time, the baffle B15 is detected by the upper first sensor 14. The upper first sensor 14 sends a signal to the game device that the button has been raised.

[0047] When the player presses down on the button cover 11, the button cover 11 drives the follower plate 10 to move downward. Because the groove 1801 on the outer side of the rotating wheel 18 engages with the slider 1001 on the inner sidewall of the follower plate 10, the downward-moving follower plate 10 can drive the rotating wheel 18 to rotate in the opposite direction. The rotating wheel 18 drives the baffle A801 ​​on the drive shaft 8 to rotate in the opposite direction. Simultaneously, the drive shaft 8 also drives the output shaft of the rotary motor 2 to rotate via bevel gears B4 and A3. At this time, the baffle B1... 5 also moves downwards along with the follower plate 10 until the follower plate 10 descends to the top of the limit seat 9 and makes close contact. At this time, the baffle B15 moves down to the detection position of the second sensor 1401 below. The second sensor 1401 sends a signal to the game that the button has been pressed. The game device executes preset instructions according to the feedback signal, such as controlling the light to flash, triggering the game program to execute explosion effects, etc. At this time, the baffle A801 ​​returns to the sensing position of the low-position sensor 5, and the button cover 11 returns to the initial state to wait.

[0048] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
