Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of gaming equipment technology, and in particular to a gashapon machine. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of leisure and entertainment equipment, gashapon machines are a popular interactive device. Their core function is to dispense individual gashapon capsules through user operation, satisfying users' entertainment needs and collection desires. As the application scenarios of gashapon machines continue to expand (such as shopping malls, amusement parks, convenience stores, etc.), users' requirements for the stability and accuracy of their dispensing are increasing.

[0003] Traditional gashapon machines typically have an open, stacked structure inside the gashapon compartment. Users usually turn a knob to release one of the gashapon from the dropper. However, when the gashapon falls, the stacked gashapon rolls haphazardly within the compartment due to their own weight, which can easily lead to multiple gashapon falling at once or jamming the dropper. Furthermore, once a single gashapon is ejected, the remaining gashapon in the compartment cannot be orderly replenished, easily causing blockages. Therefore, manual shaking of the machine is often necessary to assist in moving the gashapon. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a gashapon machine. Its advantages are: it ensures that only a single gashapon is dropped per operation, while simultaneously ensuring the automatic and orderly replenishment of any remaining gashapon, preventing the dropping hole from getting stuck.

The top of the pin is fixedly installed on the telescopic end of the electromagnet, and the bottom of the pin is inserted into the tooth groove of the gear. The infrared sensor heads are electrically connected to the electromagnet.

[0009] Preferably, the limiting assembly includes: a sliding rod one, a limiting plate one, a limiting plate two, and a sliding rod two. Both sides of the ball-out channel have arc-shaped sliding openings one, the center of which coincides with the rotation center point of the ball-retrieving goal. The sliding rod one is horizontally fixedly installed on the top of the ball-retrieving goal, and its two sides are slidably disposed within the two arc-shaped sliding openings one. The tops of both sides of the limiting plate one are rotatably installed on the inner walls of both sides of the ball-out channel via torsion spring shafts. The limiting plate two is disposed directly below the limiting plate one. The bottom of the ball outlet is arc-shaped. The sliding rod 2 is fixedly installed between the bottom of the limiting plate 1 and the top of the limiting plate 2. Arc-shaped sliding openings 2 are provided on both sides of the ball outlet channel. The arc-shaped sliding openings 2 are located directly below the arc-shaped sliding opening 1. The center of the arc-shaped sliding opening 2 coincides with the rotation center point of the limiting plate 1. The two sides of the sliding rod 2 are respectively slidably arranged in the two arc-shaped sliding openings 2. The same limiting plate 3 is fixedly installed between the top of the inner walls on both sides of the ball outlet channel. The end of the limiting plate 3 away from the ball retrieval goal is inclined downward.

[0010] Preferably, the pin assembly includes: a sleeve, a pin, a buffer spring, and a baffle. The two sleeves are horizontally fixedly installed on both sides of the other end of the bottom outer wall of the capsule chamber. The two pins are respectively inserted into the two sleeves on the opposite sides. The opposite ends of the two pins away from the knob are both arc-shaped. The two buffer springs are fixedly installed between the two sleeves and the two pins on the opposite sides. A limiting port is opened at the bottom of the sleeve. The baffle is vertically fixedly installed at the bottom of the pin. The bottom of the baffle passes through the limiting port. Limiting grooves are opened on both sides of the middle position of the inner wall of one end of the outer casing. The two limiting grooves are respectively corresponding to the two baffles.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are as follows: (1) This utility model proposes a gashapon machine, which is equipped with a shell, gashapon compartment, knob, ball dispensing channel, ball retrieval gate, support base, two turntables, baffle plate, guide column, sliding plate, linkage component, limiting component and locking component. In the initial state, the gashapon in the gashapon compartment is guided by the top conical guide column to orderly layer. The gashapon in the first layer is embedded in the two ball dispensing ports, and the gashapon in the second layer is located in the gap between the adjacent first layer. The sliding plate on the inner wall of the compartment prevents the edge gashapon from being stuck between the compartment wall and the turntable. When the linkage component drives one turntable to rotate, the other turntable rotates synchronously. When ball drop outlet 1 and ball drop outlet 2 are aligned, the first layer of capsules inside falls into the ball outlet channel by gravity, completing a single ball drop. After the ball drops, the second layer of capsules above ball drop outlet 1 is guided to the top by a baffle plate. When the knob is turned again, the second layer of capsules above the next ball drop outlet 1 is guided by the baffle plate, and at the same time, the next capsule is pushed forward and slides into the first empty ball drop outlet 1 to fill the new first layer. The third layer of capsules fills the empty space of the second layer at the same time. The sliding plate assists the capsules to slide towards the center of the turntable to prevent jamming. This achieves the goal of dropping only a single capsule in a single operation, while ensuring that the remaining capsules are automatically and orderly filled in, preventing the first ball drop outlet from getting stuck.

[0012] (2) This utility model proposes a gashapon machine, which is provided with a sliding rod 1, a limiting plate 1, a limiting plate 2, a sliding rod 2, and a limiting plate 3. After the gashapon ball falls into the ball dispensing channel, the inclined downward end of the limiting plate 3 will prevent the gashapon ball from sliding out of the channel and bounce it back into the ball dispensing channel by means of the inclined direction, guiding the gashapon ball to move towards the ball retrieval gate; if the gashapon ball is slightly stuck in the channel, when the user pushes the ball retrieval gate to open, the ball retrieval gate will drive the sliding rod 1 to slide along the arc-shaped sliding opening 1, and the sliding rod 1 will contact and push the sliding rod 2 along the arc. The sliding port 2 slides, which in turn drives the limiting plate 1 to rotate around the torsion spring shaft. The limiting plate 2 moves synchronously with the limiting plate 1. The arc-shaped structure at the bottom of the limiting plate 2 can prevent it from getting stuck with the inner wall of the channel or the gashapon ball, and assists in turning and locking the gashapon ball so that it continues to move towards the ball-collecting gate. At the same time, the torsion spring shaft generates elastic force due to the rotation of the limiting plate 1. After the user takes the gashapon ball and releases the ball-collecting gate, the torsion spring shaft releases the stored force, causing the limiting plate 1 to rotate in the opposite direction. The limiting plate 1 pulls the sliding rod 1 along the arc-shaped sliding port 1 in the opposite direction through the sliding rod 2, and finally drives the ball-collecting gate to reset and close.

[0024] The present application will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.

[0025] In the description of this application, it should be noted that the terms "center", "lateral", "longitudinal", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", etc., which indicate the orientation and positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, are only for the convenience of describing this application 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, and should not be construed as limiting the specific protection scope of this application.

[0026] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0027] One preferred embodiment of this application, such as Figures 1 to 11 As shown, a gashapon machine includes: a casing 1, with an opening at the top of one end of the casing 1; and further includes: a gashapon compartment 7, a knob 8, a ball dispensing channel 9, a ball retrieval gate 10, a ball dropping assembly, a linkage assembly, a limiting assembly, a locking assembly, and a pin assembly; the gashapon compartment 7 is disposed within the opening; an opening 2 is located at the middle of one end of the casing 1, and the knob 8 is rotatably mounted on the inner circumference of the opening 2; the ball dispensing channel 9 is fixedly mounted on the inner bottom wall of the casing 1, and the ball dispensing channel 9 is close to... One end of the knob 8 is tilted downwards; an opening 3 is provided on one side of the bottom of one end of the casing 1; the two ends of the ball-receiving goal 10 are respectively rotatably installed on the bottom of the inner walls of the ball-ejection channel 9; the ball-dropping assembly is installed on the bottom inner wall of the capsule chamber 7; the linkage assembly is installed between the ball-dropping assembly and the knob 8; the limiting assembly is installed in the ball-ejection channel 9; the locking assembly is located in the casing 1; there are two sets of pin assemblies, and the two sets of pin assemblies are respectively installed on the bottom two sides of the capsule chamber 7 near the end of the knob 8.

[0028] During operation, the user pushes the gashapon compartment 7 from the opening to the appropriate position and locks it with the latch assembly. Then, a coin is inserted, and the knob 8 is turned. The linkage assembly drives the ball-dropping assembly, causing a single gashapon in the gashapon compartment 7 to fall into the ball-dispensing channel 9. The gashapon automatically slides along the ball-dispensing channel 9 to the ball-retrieving gate 10. Finally, the user opens the ball-retrieving gate 10 and retrieves the gashapon from the ball-dispensing channel 9. This ensures that only a single gashapon is dropped in a single operation, while also ensuring that the remaining gashapon are automatically and orderly replenished.

[0029] Further reference Figures 2-4 and Figure 6The ball-dropping assembly includes: a support base 201, two turntables 202, and a baffle plate 203. The support base 201 is fixedly installed at the center of the bottom inner wall of the gashapon chamber 7. The two turntables 202 are horizontally positioned directly above the support base 201. The bottom of one turntable 202 is rotatably mounted to the support base 201. The top of one turntable 202 is fixedly mounted to the other turntable 202 via a connecting rod. Several ball-dropping openings 1 are provided at the top edge of the turntable 202. A ball-dropping opening 22 is provided at one end of the bottom of the gashapon chamber 7. The ball-dropping opening 22 is positioned corresponding to the ball-dropping opening 1. The baffle plate 203 is fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of one end of the gashapon chamber 7. The end of the baffle plate 203 near the center of the turntable 202 is inclined downward. A guide column 204 is fixedly installed at the center of the top of the other turntable 202. The top of the guide column 204 is conical. Sliding plates 205 are arranged and installed on the other side of the inner wall of one end of the gashapon chamber 7.

[0030] In the initial state, the capsule toys inside the capsule toy compartment 7 are arranged in an orderly layered manner under the guidance of the cone-shaped guide column 204 at the top. The first layer of capsule toys is embedded in several drop-off holes on the top edge of two turntables 202 that are fixed by connecting rods, and is in slight contact with the inner wall of the bottom of the capsule toy compartment 7. The second layer of capsule toys is located in the gaps between two adjacent first layer capsule toys, and the third layer of capsule toys is located at the top position between two adjacent second layer capsule toys. At the same time, the sliding plate 205 on the inner wall of the capsule toy compartment 7 can prevent the edge capsule toys from getting stuck between the compartment wall and the turntables 202. When the linkage component drives one of the turntables 202 to rotate, the turntable 202 drives the other turntable 202 to rotate horizontally in sync via the connecting rod. As the turntables 202 rotate, when a drop-off hole 1 aligns with a drop-off hole 2 at the bottom of the capsule toy compartment 7, the drop-off hole 1... The first layer of capsule toys, under the influence of gravity, passes through drop vent 1 and drop vent 2 in sequence and falls into the ball outlet channel 9, completing a single drop. At this time, the second layer of capsule toys corresponding to drop vent 1 is guided to its top by the baffle plate 203. When the knob 8 is turned again, the second layer of capsule toys corresponding to drop vent 1 is guided to its top by the baffle plate 203, pushing down the previous second layer capsule to drop off the baffle plate 203 and sliding into the first empty drop vent 1 to fill the gap and form a new first layer capsule to drop. The capsule toys in the corresponding positions of the third layer fall down simultaneously to fill the empty second layer position, maintaining the orderly layered structure. The sliding plate 205 can assist such capsule toys to slide towards the center of the turntable 202 to avoid jamming, realizing that only a single capsule to drop in a single operation, while ensuring that the remaining capsule toys are automatically and orderly filled in, preventing the drop vent 2 from getting stuck.

[0031] Further reference Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 10The linkage components include: a first gear 301, several mounting seats 302, several second gears 304, a rotating shaft 305, and an external gear ring 306. The first gear 301 is fixedly installed at one end of the knob 8 that extends into the outer casing 1. Several mounting seats 302 are respectively fixedly installed at the middle position of the inner wall of the other end of the outer casing 1. One end of several second gears 304 is rotatably installed at one end of several mounting seats 302. Several second gears 304 are sequentially meshed. One end of the rotating shaft 305 is fixedly connected to the first gear 301, and the other end of the rotating shaft 305 is fixedly connected to the other end of one of the second gears 304. The external gear ring 306 is fixedly installed at the bottom edge of one of the turntables 202, and the external gear ring 306 is meshed with the second gear 304 near the turntable 202.

[0032] When the user rotates knob 8, gear 1 301 rotates synchronously with knob 8. When gear 1 301 rotates, it drives one of the gears 2 304 to rotate through shaft 305. The rotation of gear 2 304 will drive the other gears 2 304 to rotate synchronously, forming a continuous power transmission. Finally, the gear 2 304 closest to the turntable 202 will drive the outer gear ring 306 meshing with it to rotate. The outer gear ring 306 is fixedly installed at the bottom edge of one of the turntables 202. Therefore, the rotation of the outer gear ring 306 directly drives the turntable 202 to rotate, thereby realizing the transmission of the power of the user rotating knob 8 to the turntable 202 of the ball dropping component through the linkage component. Each time knob 8 is rotated, one capsule drops, realizing that only one capsule drops in a single operation.

[0033] Further reference Figure 5 and Figure 10 The locking assembly includes two infrared sensor heads 401, an electromagnet 402, and a pin 403. The two infrared sensor heads 401 are fixedly installed on the top of both sides of the ball outlet channel 9. The electromagnet 402 is fixedly installed in the middle of the inner wall of one end of the casing 1. The electromagnet 402 is located directly above the knob 8. The top of the pin 403 is fixedly installed on the telescopic end of the electromagnet 402. The bottom of the pin 403 is inserted into the tooth groove of the gear 301. The infrared sensor heads 401 and the electromagnet 402 are electrically connected.

[0034] The bottom of the ejector pin 403 is inserted into the tooth groove of gear 301. The knob 8 associated with gear 301 cannot rotate because gear 301 is locked. The two infrared sensor heads 401 fixed on the top of both sides of the ball outlet channel 9 and the electromagnet 402 fixed in the middle of the inner wall of one end of the casing 1 and located directly above the knob 8 are all in standby mode. The infrared sensor heads 401 and the electromagnet 402 are electrically connected. When the user completes the start operation, such as inserting a coin, the electromagnet 402 is energized, its telescopic end retracts upward and drives the ejector pin 403 to move upward, so that the bottom of the ejector pin 403 disengages from the tooth groove. Gear 301 is unlocked by rotating the gear 301. At this time, the user can rotate the knob 8, which will cause the capsule to fall into the ball ejection channel 9 through gear 301 and subsequent transmission components. When the capsule moves to the infrared sensor head 401, it will block the sensing signal. The infrared sensor head 401 will then transmit a trigger signal to the electromagnet 402. After receiving the signal, the electromagnet 402 will extend its telescopic end downward, causing the ejector pin 403 to move down and re-insert into the gear 301, locking gear 301 and knob 8 again, thus completing a single operation. The above steps will be repeated after the next start operation.

[0035] Further reference Figure 6 and Figure 10 The limiting assembly includes: a sliding rod 501, a limiting plate 502, a limiting plate 503, and a sliding rod 504. Both sides of the ball-out channel 9 have arc-shaped sliding openings, the center of which coincides with the rotation center of the ball-retrieving goal 10. The sliding rod 501 is horizontally fixed to the top of the ball-retrieving goal 10, and its two sides are slidably positioned within the two arc-shaped sliding openings. The tops of both sides of the limiting plate 502 are rotatably mounted to the inner walls of the ball-out channel 9 via torsion spring shafts. The limiting plate 503 is positioned directly below the limiting plate 502. The bottom of the second 503 is arc-shaped. The second sliding rod 504 is fixedly installed between the bottom of the first limiting plate 502 and the top of the second limiting plate 503. Arc-shaped sliding openings 2 are opened on both sides of the ball outlet channel 9. The second arc-shaped sliding opening is located directly below the first arc-shaped sliding opening. The center of the second arc-shaped sliding opening coincides with the rotation center point of the first limiting plate 502. The two sides of the second sliding rod 504 are respectively slidably installed in the two arc-shaped sliding openings 2. The same third limiting plate 505 is fixedly installed between the top of the inner walls on both sides of the ball outlet channel 9. The end of the third limiting plate 505 away from the ball retrieval goal 10 is inclined downward.

[0036] After the gashapon ball falls into the ball-ejection channel 9, the downward-sloping end of the limiting plate 3 505 acts as a stop, preventing the gashapon ball from sliding out of the ball-ejection channel 9. At the same time, the tilt of the limiting plate 3 505 bounces the gashapon ball back into the ball-ejection channel 9, guiding the gashapon ball towards the ball-retrieving gate 10. If the gashapon ball gets slightly stuck in the channel, when the user pushes the ball-retrieving gate 10 to open it, the ball-retrieving gate 10 causes the sliding rod 1 501 to slide along the arc-shaped sliding opening 1. During the sliding process, the sliding rod 1 501 contacts and pushes the sliding rod 2 504 to slide along the arc-shaped sliding opening 2, which in turn causes the limiting plate 1 502 to rotate around the torsion spring shaft. The limiting plate 2 503 rotates synchronously with the limiting plate 1 502. During movement, the arc-shaped structure at the bottom of the limiting plate 503 prevents jamming with the inner wall of the ball outlet channel 9 or the gashapon ball, assisting in turning the stuck gashapon ball and ensuring its continuous movement towards the ball-collecting gate 10. At the same time, the torsion spring shaft generates elastic force due to the rotation of the limiting plate 502. After the user collects the gashapon ball, the ball-collecting gate 10 is released, and the torsion spring shaft releases the elastic force, causing the limiting plate 502 to rotate in the opposite direction. The limiting plate 502 pulls the sliding rod 501 along the arc-shaped sliding opening in the opposite direction through the sliding rod 504, ultimately causing the ball-collecting gate 10 to reset and close. At this time, the sliding rod 501, the limiting plate 502, the limiting plate 503, and the sliding rod 504 all return to their initial positions.

[0037] Further reference Figure 8 and Figure 11 The latch assembly includes: sleeve 601, latch 602, buffer spring 603, and baffle 604. The two sleeves 601 are horizontally fixed on both sides of the other end of the bottom outer wall of the gashapon compartment 7. The two latches 602 are respectively inserted into the side of the two sleeves 601 that are far apart from each other. The ends of the two latches 602 that are far apart from each other and away from the knob 8 are both arc-shaped. The two buffer springs 603 are fixedly installed between the two sleeves 601 and the two latches 602 that are close to each other. The bottom of the sleeve 601 is provided with a limiting port 605. The baffle 604 is vertically fixed on the bottom of the latch 602. The bottom of the baffle 604 passes through the limiting port 605. The two sides of the middle position of the inner wall of one end of the outer casing 1 are provided with limiting grooves 606. The two limiting grooves 606 are respectively provided with corresponding baffles 604.

[0038] Initially, the buffer spring 603 is in a naturally extended state. When the gashapon compartment 7 needs to be installed, it is pushed into the housing 1 along the top opening. During this process, the arc-shaped end of the pin 602 first contacts the inner wall of the housing 1. As the gashapon compartment 7 continues to move forward, the inner wall of the housing 1 exerts a squeezing force on the arc-shaped end of the pin 602, causing the pin 602 to retract into the sleeve 601. At the same time, the pin 602 drives the baffle 604 to slide along the limiting port 605 towards the sleeve 601. The buffer spring 603 between the pin 602 and the sleeve 601 is compressed. When the gashapon compartment 7 is pushed to the appropriate position inside the housing 1, the pin 602 is released by the buffer spring 603, pushing the pin... 602 extends away from the sleeve 601, and the pin 602 drives the baffle 604 to move synchronously along the limiting port 605. Finally, the bottom of the baffle 604 is inserted into the corresponding limiting groove 606, thereby locking the gashapon compartment 7 to the outer shell 1. When it is necessary to remove the gashapon compartment 7 to replenish the gashapon, manually pull the baffle 604 through the limiting port 605, so that the baffle 604 drives the pin 602 to retract into the sleeve 601. The buffer spring 603 is compressed again until the pin 602 is retracted into the sleeve 601. At this time, the locking state of the gashapon compartment 7 is released, and the gashapon compartment 7 can be pulled out in the opposite direction of the opening. After replenishment, repeat the above pushing operation, and the pin assembly can lock the gashapon compartment 7 back into the outer shell 1, restoring the gashapon machine to its working state.

[0039] Working principle: Initially, the buffer spring 603 of the latch assembly is in a naturally extended state. When installing the gashapon compartment 7, the gashapon compartment 7 is pushed into the body housing 1 along the top opening of the body housing 1. During the pushing process, the end of the latch 602 that is away from the knob 8 and is arc-shaped first contacts the inner wall of the body housing 1. The inner wall of the body housing 1 exerts a squeezing force on the arc-shaped end of the latch 602, causing the latch 602 to retract into the sleeve 601. At the same time, the latch 602 drives the baffle 604 along the limiting opening 60 at the bottom of the sleeve 601. 5. Slide towards the sleeve 601, compressing the buffer spring 603 between the pin 602 and the sleeve 601. When the capsule chamber 7 is pushed to the appropriate position inside the outer casing 1, the buffer spring 603 releases its elastic potential energy, pushing the pin 602 to extend away from the sleeve 601. The pin 602 drives the baffle 604 to move synchronously along the limiting port 605. Finally, the bottom of the baffle 604 is inserted into the corresponding limiting grooves 606 on both sides of the middle position of the inner wall of one end of the outer casing 1, thus locking the capsule chamber 7 to the outer casing 1. At this time, the bottom of the pin 403 of the locking component is inserted into the tooth groove of gear 301. The knob 8 associated with gear 301 cannot rotate because gear 301 is locked. The two infrared sensor heads 401 fixed on the top of both sides of the ball ejection channel 9 and the electromagnet 402 fixed in the middle of the inner wall of one end of the outer casing 1 and located directly above the knob 8 are all in standby mode, and the infrared sensor heads 401 and the electromagnet 402 are electrically connected. After the user inserts a coin and completes the start operation, the electromagnet 402 is energized, its telescopic end retracts upward, and drives the ejector pin 403 to move upward, causing the bottom of the ejector pin 403 to disengage from the tooth groove of gear 1 301, thus unlocking gear 1 301. At this time, the user can rotate the knob 8, and gear 1 301 rotates synchronously with the knob 8. Gear 1 301 drives one of the gears 2 304 to rotate through the rotating shaft 305. This gear 2 304 drives the remaining gears 2 304 to rotate synchronously in sequence. Finally, the gear 2 304 closest to the turntable 202 drives the outer gear ring 306 meshing with it to rotate, and the outer gear ring 306 drives the turntable 202 to rotate synchronously. The gashapon capsules in the gashapon chamber 7 are orderly layered under the guidance of the cone-shaped guide column 204 at the top. The first layer of gashapon capsules is embedded in the drop ball opening at the top edge of the turntable 202. As the turntable 202 rotates, when a certain drop ball opening 1 aligns with a drop ball opening 2 at the bottom of the capsule toy compartment 7, the first layer of capsule toys in the drop ball opening 1 falls into the ball outlet channel 9 under the action of gravity, passing through drop ball opening 1 and drop ball opening 2 in sequence. At this time, the second layer of capsule toys corresponding to the drop ball opening 1 is guided to its top by the baffle plate 203. When the knob 8 is turned next time, the second layer of capsule toys corresponding to the next drop ball opening 1 is guided to its top by the baffle plate 203, and pushes down the previous capsule toys located on the baffle plate 203. The capsule toys slide along the baffle plate 203 into the first empty drop ball opening 1 to fill the gap and form a new first layer of capsule toys. The capsule toys in the corresponding position of the third layer fall down simultaneously to fill the empty space of the second layer. The sliding plate 205 on the inner wall of the capsule toy compartment 7 assists the capsule toys to slide towards the center of the turntable 202 to avoid jamming.After the capsule toy falls into the ball delivery channel 9, the limiting plate 3 505 of the limiting component, with its end facing downwards and away from the ball-retrieving gate 10, acts as a stop, preventing the capsule toy from sliding out of the ball delivery channel 9. At the same time, the tilt of the limiting plate 3 505 propels the capsule toy back into the ball delivery channel 9, guiding it towards the ball-retrieving gate 10. If the capsule toy becomes slightly stuck in the ball delivery channel 9, the user pushes the ball-retrieving gate 10 to open it. The ball-retrieving gate 10 then moves the sliding rod 1 501 along the ball delivery channel. As the arc-shaped sliding openings on both sides of channel 9 slide, sliding rod 501 contacts and pushes sliding rod 504 along the arc-shaped sliding opening, thereby causing limiting plate 502 to rotate around the torsion spring shaft. Limiting plate 503 moves synchronously with limiting plate 502. The arc-shaped structure at the bottom of limiting plate 503 prevents jamming with the inner wall of ball outlet channel 9 or the capsule, and assists in turning the stuck capsule. At the same time, the torsion spring shaft generates elastic force due to the rotation of limiting plate 502. After the user takes the capsule toy, they release the goal 10. The torsion spring shaft releases its elastic stored force, causing the limit plate 502 to rotate in the opposite direction. The limit plate 502 pulls the sliding rod 501 along the arc-shaped sliding opening in the opposite direction via the sliding rod 504, ultimately causing the goal 10 to reset and close. During this process, when the capsule toy moves to the infrared sensor 401, the capsule toy blocks the sensing signal of the infrared sensor 401. The infrared sensor 401 then transmits a trigger signal to the electromagnet 402. After receiving the signal, the electromagnet 402 extends its telescopic end downward, causing the ejector pin 403 to move down and re-insert into the tooth groove of the gear 301, locking the gear 301 and the knob 8 again, completing a single operation. When refilling the gashapon capsules, manually pull the baffle 604 through the limit slot 605. This causes the baffle 604 to retract the pin 602 into the sleeve 601, compressing the buffer spring 603 again until the baffle 604 is completely disengaged from the limit slot 606 and the pin 602 retracts into the sleeve 601. At this point, the gashapon capsule compartment 7 is released from its locked state and can be pulled out along the opening in the opposite direction. After refilling, repeat the above pushing operation to lock the gashapon capsule compartment 7 back into the outer casing 1 through the pin assembly, restoring the gashapon machine to its usable state.
