Definitions

  • the invention relates to a roulette game with a conventional kettle for rotating the roulette wheel by hand in both directions and ball insertion by hand and with a conventional playing field with fields for the placement of tokens.
  • the invention is particularly applicable to so-called home roulette, which are played in the home circle mostly by people who are less familiar with the roulette rules.
  • Such casual gamers often find it difficult to win all of the winning chances associated with a winning number, from single chances such as red-Schwaxz to double chances such as first, second, third dozen to combinations of six, four, three or two numbers, correct and fully determined and then allocate the winnings to the chips used.
  • this is done by experienced croupiers, but in the circle of casual gamers this often requires effort and considerable time, which can disrupt the flow of the game and impair the appeal of the game.
  • DE-OS 28 27 721 describes a roulette-like game in which the rotatable roulette wheel and the ball are replaced by a rotating arm with a luminous pointer rotating under a transparent stationary wheel by motor drive.
  • the sliding contacts assigned to the rotating arm are connected to the lighting sources assigned to the playing fields and each illuminate those fields which, as chances of winning, belong to the winning number at which the luminous pointer comes to a standstill.
  • a roulette-like slot machine in which a roulette wheel is always driven in the same direction of rotation by means of a motor and the ball is inserted pneumatically.
  • the position of the ball in one is determined by means of scanning devices and markings assigned to the turntable the fan of the disc is detected and identified.
  • the betting is not based on tokens, but rather by keying into a computer, which then automatically calculates the winnings based on the determined number of winnings and credits them to the players.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a roulette game with automatic display of the winning fields belonging to the winning number while fully maintaining the manual operation of the ball and turntable typical of the roulette.
  • the advantage is achieved that automatic detection of the winning number and corresponding control of the associated winning fields is possible without the usual manual operation of the rotating disk and ball having to be changed in any direction of rotation .
  • the usual typical character of the roulette game with regard to the random formation of the winning number is completely retained, and the automation only relates to the corresponding control of the display of the winning fields.
  • Fig. 1 shows a perspective view, partially broken away, of a preferred embodiment of the roulette game.
  • Fig. 2 shows a sectional view of the roulette wheel and a block diagram of the associated electronic device.
  • the roulette game consists of a housing 1, preferably made of impact-resistant plastic, on the top of which the roulette wheel 2 is arranged with a rotatable, manually operable roulette wheel 3 and the playing field 4 is designed for setting the tokens.
  • the individual winning fields of the playing field 4 are made of translucent material 5, e.g. dark colored, translucent plastic formed and can be illuminated by light sources 6 mounted underneath in the housing 1. These light sources, e.g. Incandescent lamps, light emitting diodes or the like. are controlled automatically by a control device (also not shown) arranged in the housing 1 as a function of the also automatically scanned winning number.
  • a display 7 for displaying the respective winning number so that it only from the position of the player who operates the turntable 3 and takes over the role of the croupier, but is not visible to the other players.
  • This display 7 is timed by the automatic scanning and control device in front of the light sources 6, specifically with the disk 3 still rotating, as soon as the ball has fallen into a compartment of the disk 3 and was scanned there.
  • the display 7 can thus serve the croupier as an indication of the "rien ne va plus".
  • Fig. 2 shows on the left side a section through the roulette wheel 2, which is designed for the insertion of the ball by hand, and through the roulette wheel 3, which is also operated by hand, for example by means of the turnstile shown in Fig. 1 and rotatable on a bearing pin 8 is mounted.
  • the disk 3 has compartments 9 into which the ball 10 can fall.
  • the bottom of each compartment 9 is made of translucent material 11.
  • the light reflection is low due to the translucent material 11, when passing the ball 10 lying in a compartment, which is usually white anyway and therefore highly reflective, increases suddenly the Lioht reflection and the light sensor 13 emits a pulse to a counter 14.
  • cutouts 16 are attached to the individual compartments 9 or winning number, which are scanned by a light barrier 17 with a light source and light sensor.
  • the cutouts 16 are attached at regular intervals on the circumference of the disk 3 corresponding to the compartments 9, with two exceptions. There is no cutout 16 at any starting field, ie there is a gap 18 between the cutouts 16. At another, around a few fields adjacent to the field there are two closely adjacent cutouts 19 instead of a single cutout 16.
  • the light sensor 17 thus generates a pulse train with each rotation of the disk 3, a cutout of which is shown at a in FIG.
  • the reflection light barrier 12, 13 generates, when the disk 2 rotates, as soon as the ball 10 has fallen into a compartment 9, the pulse curve shown in FIG. 2 at B with a single pulse, the position of which relative to the gap 18, which denotes a starting field the random location of the ball 10 depends.
  • the pulse train A generated by the light sensor 17 reaches a diacriminator stage 20, which starts the counter 14 each time the pulse gap 18 occurs.
  • the counter 14 is stopped again by the pulse generated by the reflection light barrier 12, 13 and corresponding to the scanning of the sphere 10.
  • the counting result corresponds to the distance of the compartment 9 in which the ball is located from the starting field.
  • This counting result is entered in a position determination stage 21.
  • a signal from discriminator 20, which corresponds to the direction of rotation of disk 3 determined in discriminator 20, also enters this, i.e. which is different, depending on whether the double pulse 19 occurs before or after the pulse gap 18.
  • the stage 21 can uniquely identify the compartment 9 in which the ball 10 lies and thus the winning number X.
  • This winning number X is input into a computer 22, in which the individual winning chances (red-black, etc.) are stored in a pre-programmed manner for each winning number X.
  • the computer 22 accordingly controls the light sources 6 assigned to the profit fields of the playing field 4.
  • the display device 7 which directly displays the winning number, e.g. by means of light-emitting diodes, LED displays or the like arranged in the form of number segments.
  • This activation is preferably carried out before the light sources 6 of the profit fields light up at a point in time at which the players have not yet positioned the ball on the rotating disk 3 Eye can see. This point in time can serve as a point of reference for the player performing the croupier function as to when he has to end the placing of tokens by the announcement "rien ne va plus".
