Mahjong machine and mahjong tiles sorting method

Abstract

The invention discloses a mahjong machine and a mahjong tile sorting method. The four groups of card picking and conveying systems of the mahjong machine are independently arranged without interlacing with each other. The card entry direction of the card inlet on the slot and the card output direction of the card outlet are at an angle of 45° to 90°. In the same group of card picking and handling systems: the card lifting component and the card feeding device are directly adjacent to each other and are arranged in the card storage Outside the arc of the groove, the driving mechanism of the card pushing head is set inside the arc of the card storage slot, and the card pushing device is installed at the card outlet of the card feeding device. The card direction is at an included angle of 80° to 100°, and the card feeding direction of the card storage slot in the upper card assembly and the card pushing direction of the card pushing device are at an included angle of 0° to 10°. This solution increases the storage quantity of mahjong tiles in the tile storage slot, reduces the height and manufacturing cost of the main machine of the mahjong machine, and provides better user experience and comfort.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention belongs to the field of mahjong machine manufacturing, and in particular relates to a mahjong machine and a method for arranging mahjong tiles. 【Background technique】 [0002] With the continuous improvement of living standards, people pay more and more attention to leisure and entertainment life, and the convenient and labor-saving automatic mahjong machine is gradually loved by people. [0003] The patent document whose publication number is CN200966910Y discloses a kind of slope playing device for fully automatic mahjong machine. The sideline of the table is inclined at an angle. There are four arc-shaped card storage slots arranged in the shape of a windmill under the desktop board. The end of each card storage slot is equipped with a card delivery pusher. The pusher passes the card delivery wire rope and the pusher motor. Each card outlet is provided with a supporting door bar, one end of the supporting door bar is hinged with the...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0011] However, the above-mentioned slope playing mahjong machine in the prior art has not been able to completely overcome the following technical problems so far, though the inventor has repeatedly developed and improved the mahjong machine:

[0012] 1. In the prior art, the card feeding device and the card lifting assembly are arranged on the inside of the card storage slot, and the card lifting assembly in one group of card picking and conveying systems is arranged on the card feeding device in another group of card picking and transporting systems. The inner side, thereby forming the interlaced arrangement between adjacent pick-up card handling systems to extend the length of the card storage slot, but the number of mahjong tiles that can be stored in this way is still limited, especially the large ones.

[0013] 2. Because the adjacent card picking and handling systems are interlaced with each other, the upper and lower stacking between the adjacent card delivery device and the card lifting component is inevitable, which leads to an increase in the height of the mahjong machine

[0014] 3. Due to the staggered arrangement between the adjacent card picking and handling systems, the card lifting component and the card storage slot cannot be stacked up and down and the length of the card storage slot is limited, so the setting position of the card lifting port of the adjacent card picking and handling system is extremely restricted. Large restrictions affect the comfort of the mahjong machine

Take the 85cm square mahjong machine using 48mm mahjong tiles as an example, such as figure 1 As shown, the four rows of mahjong tile walls directly rising from the four-sided card opening 111 on the table top 11 are arranged in a windmill shape, and the distance between the two rows of mahjong tile walls is 35cm, so that the area where the player's left hand side is used to placing kong tiles is very large. Small (that is, the distance between the mahjong tile wall and the table frame is too small) cannot be placed. Players need to move the mahjong tile wall to clear the Kong tile area, which affects the comfort of use

[0015] 4. Due to the staggered arrangement of adjacent card picking and handling systems, the arc of the card storage slot is small (that is, the direction of card entry and card output of the card storage slot is arranged at an acute angle) and the shape is irregular, so the card storage is driven The driving mechanism of the card pushing head in the groove is complex in structure, requires high manufacturing precision, reliability is limited by the structure, and the manufacturing cost and maintenance cost are high.
