Definitions

  • the subject of the invention is the ball launching mechanism for roulette, wherein each ball launching is performed manually by one of the players.
  • the invention-based mechanism is preferably designed for roulette intended for a single player and without a croupier, who is replaced by a computer.
  • the technical issue, solved by this invention reflects on how to design a ball launching mechanism for roulette that will enable one gambler to launch the ball in every game, and that will, in addition to the feeling that he influenced the launching speed of the ball, and by that the outcome of the game, with the help of a mechanism ensure a sufficient randomness of the game that is expected or required by those who pay out the winnings.
  • the present invention provides a mechanism for launching a roulette ball according to claim 1.
  • another coaxial piston with its own spring and firing pin is located inside the piston affecting the ball. The spring of the smaller piston pushes the piston to the back position according to the movement direction of the bigger piston during ball launching.
  • the channel leading the ball from the invention-based mechanism to the roulette wheel may be designed and so placed that in the beginning the ball inside rises and then after a certain period of time descends back into the roulette wheel.
  • This kind of construction also enables most random speed of the ball to correspond to the rules of the roulette.
  • the computer steering other roulette functions, measures every ejecting speed of the ball and in accordance to this speed adapts the speed of the revolving part of the roulette wheel through random coefficients, which are generated by the computer and cannot be influenced by anyone. This completely ensures the sufficient randomness of the winnings.
  • Ball ejection mechanism 1 for the roulette wheel 2 is constructed on the periphery of the roulette's housing 3.
  • the roulette wheel 2 is used as an arbitrary roulette wheel that may ensure a sufficient degree of randomness for the winnings by manually turning its revolving part 4 or electromechanical drive of the revolving part 4, but favourably by electromechanical or electropneumatic computerized steering of individual game, and by computerized input of random values than cannot be influenced by anyone.
  • Mechanism 1 is designed based on the housing 5 inside which a coaxial piston 6, pushed in one direction by a spring 7, is placed. Piston 6 reaches outside the housing, where spring 7 is located, with a handle which may be pulled for a chosen length by the player and by doing so straining the spring according to its own discretion. Later on, a description is given on how it is ensured that the launching speed of the ball following the player's actions is not too slow which might lead to insufficient randomness or even non-randomness of the game.
  • the restriction of the piston movement 6 will be executed by a fit 9 that restricts the movement of the piston 6 after the player pulls the handle 8 and thus straining the spring 7 and after releasing the handle 8 so that the spring 7 has without restriction pushed the piston 6 towards the fit 9.
  • the fit 9 will be located within the area of the channel 10 intended for leading the ball 11 to the track 12 inside the roulette.
  • a smaller axial moving piston 13 is placed and is continuous with the firing pin 14 in the channel direction 10 and is pushed with the spring 15 in the direction of the handle 8.
  • the mechanism 1 is placed on the housing's periphery 3 of the roulette wheel 2 in such a manner that the axle of the pistons 6 and 13 and the pin 14 are placed coaxial to the launching channel 10 located inside the housing 3.
  • Modem roulette wheels normally include a device 17 for removing balls 11 from their slots 18, determining the winnings of the game and for returning balls back to the ball-launching area at each game.
  • the mechanism 1 is designed in such a manner that the bus 19 leading the ball 11 to the mechanism 1 leads the ball 11 directly in front of the pin 14 in the partially tensioned piston 6, while the pin 14 in the non-tensioned position of the piston 6 prevents the movement of the ball from its bus 19 in front of the pin 14. This assures the minimum manual straining of the spring 7 of the piston 6 on account of minimum launching speed of the ball 11 that presupposes sufficient randomness of the winnings.
  • the mechanism 1, placed on the periphery of the housing 3, can be linked to the roulette wheel 2 with a longer ejection channel 10, which can also be placed outside of the housing 3 as shown in the image 3.
  • the launching channel 10 is led in such a manner that it rises forward from the mechanism 1, and then lowers back to the roulette wheel 2.
  • Such construction and mounting of the launching channel 10 prevents, in addition to the construction for achieving sufficient launching speed of the ball described within basic construction, insufficient launching speed of the ball that may lead to insufficient randomness or even non-randomness of the game.
  • the described construction of the launching channel 10 forces the player to additionally regulate the launching speed of the ball, which has after leaving the mechanism 1 (due to two pistons 6 and 13, and two springs 7 and 15, and arbitrary manual pressure to the spring 7 of the bigger piston 6) become very coincidental, by pulling the handle 8.
  • speed sensor at the launching of the ball 11 is built into the mechanism 1.
  • Microprocessor inside the roulette wheel annuls the game, if the launching speed of the ball 11 falls, due to any reason whatsoever, under the minimum required speed. By performing the correction to the revolving part of the roulette wheel, the microprocessor also takes into consideration the launching speed of each ball 11. The attempt of the player lessens, on account of the manual launching of the ball 11, to the range of randomness as expected by the roulette operator.
  • the mechanism 1 is functioning in such manner that in stationary state the ball 11 is not located in front of the pin 14 since this is prevented by the position of the pin 14 through the bus 19 of the ball 11.
  • the pin 14 loosens the bus 19 and the ball 11, prepared for launching, appears in the channel 10.
  • the abovementioned manual pull of the handle is a minimum pull since the launching of the ball 11 is possible only on account of ensuring minimum launching speed of the ball 11.
  • the player then arbitrarily pulls the handle 8 based on his intention to "influence" the movement of the ball.
  • the spring 7 pushes the larger piston 6 in the direction of the fit 9.
