Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a tile conveyance device in an automatic mahjong table.

In an automatic mahjong table, a belt conveyor with a flat belt is normally used to transport the tiles mixed together on the turntable in tandem to the next operating section. For example, as an operating unit for correcting the posture of tiles by turning them inside out, a basket is used that is rotatably installed facing the end of the transfer of a belt conveyor, and this basket accepts the tiles being transferred one by one and adjusts the posture. It is equipped with a function that can be corrected. However, if the tiles that are transferred on the belt conveyor are continuous, the preceding tiles can be pushed by the following tiles and completely enter the basket, but if there is a large gap between the tiles before and after them. , when the last tile is transferred, the tile will stop due to a slip between it and the belt with part of it stuck in the basket, and also stop as soon as the rear end leaves the belt. This often causes problems such as not being able to completely enter the basket.

When the tiles stop at a halfway position like this,
This affects other synchronized movement members, causing a disturbance in the subsequent movement progress, and significantly deteriorating the original function of the automatic mahjong table.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a tile conveyance device for an automatic mahjong table that eliminates the problem of tiles being pushed out from a belt conveyor stopping halfway.

The tile conveyance device for an automatic mahjong table, which is a feature of the present invention, will be explained below with reference to the attached drawings. , this transfer end portion is supported by rollers 3, and a large number of extrusion pieces 5 are provided on the belt 4 of the belt conveyor 2 along its length direction so as to be able to rise and fall freely with respect to the belt 4, and these extrusion pieces With the free end 5a of the piece 5 facing in the direction opposite to the traveling direction of the belt 4, the extruded piece 5 is
is placed almost flush with the belt conveyor 2 by its own weight, and is configured to stand up at the end of the conveyance, and the extruded piece 5 is placed on the roller 3 at the end of the conveyance. When the push-out piece 5 reaches the tangential direction of the roller 3, it stands up, presses the tile p, and can feed the tile p completely into the operating section 1.

In the above configuration, the illustrated extrusion piece 5 is formed from a U-shaped notch provided on the belt 4, but it may also be V-shaped.
It is also possible to provide extruded pieces like fish scales on the belt 4. In the figure, 6 is a driving roller, 7 is a driven roller, and 8 is a guide roller.

The present invention is as described above, and the push-out piece 5 stands up at the roller 3 portion at the end of the transfer of the belt conveyor 2 and exerts the effect of completely feeding the tiles P to the next moving section 1, so that the tiles are not removed halfway. If the system is stopped, problems that occur can be resolved. Therefore, by changing the length of the pushing piece 5, it is possible to adjust the pushing distance of the tiles, which is extremely effective in smoothly operating an automatic mahjong table, and has a simple structure. Its practical value is great, as it is easy to implement.

[Brief explanation of the drawing]

FIG. 1 is a side view of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the same essential parts. In the figure, 1 is an operating part, 2 is a belt conveyor, 3 is a roller, 4 is a belt, 5 is an extrusion piece, and 5a is a free end.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] A transfer end portion of the belt conveyor is made to face an operating part such as a freely rotatable basket, and this transfer end portion is supported by rollers,
On the belt of the belt conveyor, a large number of extruded pieces are placed along the length of the belt, and the horizontal part of the belt conveyor is placed almost flush with the belt conveyor due to its own weight, and the roller at the end of the conveyance What is claimed is: 1. A tile conveying device for an automatic mahjong table, characterized in that parts of the extruded pieces are provided so as to be freely raised and folded so as to stand up from the belt surface, and the free ends of each of the extruded pieces are directed in a direction opposite to the traveling direction of the belt.
