The paints 30 are supplied one by one to predetermined reading ports 37-.
and a kicking device 31 for kicking out the distributed mahjong tiles 4 in the same direction.

The mixing tool 27 is a rotary drum 3 in the shape of a cylinder with an open top.
2, and a side plate 33 that surrounds the rotating drum 32 in a square shape, for example.
A baffle plate 35 protrudes from the inner surface, and a two-way pipe 36 is attached with its top facing through the through hole 32b around the bottom plate 32a of the rotating drum 32, and allows the mahjong tiles 4 to pass through one by one.
and.

The number of double barrels 36 is greater than, for example, the four reading ports 37- corresponding to each nearby position of the mahjong table 2, and preferably an odd number, for example seven, are arranged at equal angular pitches. .

Further, the baffle plate 35 has a pin 39 installed on the inner surface of the side plate 33.
An abutment shaft 40 whose lower end is close to the bottom plate 32a of the rotating drum 32 is attached to the rotary drum 32 via a flexible shaft 41 such as a spring.

As a result, as the outer m46 rotates, the elastic member 43 protrudes from the notched groove into the inner cylinder 45 at a rotation period, and protrudes and retreats on the slope of the inner cylinder 45 (by repeating the rotation, the elastic member 43 is oriented diagonally). The mahjong tiles 4 entering the inner cylinder 45 are aligned vertically.

Therefore, the delivery tool 28 moves the mahjong tiles 4 thrown into the rotating drum 32 into the inside of the outer cylinder 46 by pushing up one end of the outer cylinder 46 by rotating the top of the outer cylinder 46 and by cooperating with the baffle plate 35. By allowing the inner cylinder 45 to pass through the mahjong tiles 4 only in the vertical direction, the tiles 4 are aligned vertically, and the mahjong tiles 4 in the rotating drum 32 are doubled without being accumulated. It passes through the tube tool 36 and is sent out one after another in the same direction.

The dispensing tool 30 is the double tube tool 36 attached to the rotary plate 57.
The tiles 4 falling into the mahjong table 2 can be fed to, for example, four reading ports 37, located on each side of the mahjong table 2. The cough feeding tool 30 includes the double barrel 36, a pressing tool 63 attached to the upper fixing plate 62, and the horizontal lower fixing plate 65 located near the lower end of the double barrel 36.

The lower fixing plate 65 is a disc body capable of supporting the lower ends of the mahjong tiles 4 that have fallen inside the double barrel 36, and is fixed to the lower plate 53 using support pieces. Further, the lower fixing plate 65 is provided with an outlet portion 67 by cutting out a position directly above the reading outlet 37 and allowing the tiles 4 to fall therefrom.

Also, as the receiving plates 23 and 24 rise, they are lifted onto the table board 10.

The blade plate 22 on the counter 16 is pivotally supported on the four sides of the substantially square input port 19, and
The input port 19 can be closed leaving behind. Each wing plate 22 is connected to each end portion thereof by a string body 230 that is tensioned when the wing plate 22 is lowered by a predetermined angle. Also one wing plate 22
A notch 231 is provided at the front end of the handle to enable it to be flipped up by hand. The vane 22 is rotated using an electric motor M4 and a sling 215 shown in FIG.

However, in the mahjong device 1 of the present invention, when the drive switch s1 provided in the automatic dice rolling device 17 is turned on at the end of one game, the slot 19 is opened by rotating the wing plate 22 downward, and the slot 19 is opened. Mahjong tiles 4 on 19
Insert. Next, when the drive switch s1 is pressed again, the vane plate 22 is closed and the straight part 149 under the extrusion device 9 is pressed.
As the deceleration motor M3 rotates, the push-up tool 11 moves the mahjong tile rows A, B, and C or the mahjong rows A and B that have been waiting as described above.
One extrusion piece 133 passes through the curved part 150 and the upper straight part 151, pushes it out onto the receiving plates 23.24, and lifts it from the lifting port 20.21 by raising the receiving plate 23.24.

At that time, when the selection tool 10 is flipped up, the wall tile 6
As a result, 2 rows of 11 mahjong tiles A and B, 1 row of 12 mahjong tiles C are waiting in line as hand tiles 7, and therefore, by lifting, 11 wall tiles 6 and 12 hand tiles are stacked in 2 rows. Place tiles 7 and 7 on the bottom of the table.

When the selection tool 10 is pressed down, the 17 tiles are arranged in two stacks as shown by the dashed line in FIG.

The automatic dice shaking device 17 is further equipped with four gate switches S2, and when the switch S2 facing the parent is pressed, the dice 17a are vibrated for a predetermined period of time. The gate switch s2 continues to light up and display the parent until the next parent presses the switch S2 facing it.

As described above, the device of the present invention includes a mixing tile mixer, a sending device, a guide path, and a selection tool, and can be used to mix tiles in two tiers and only hand tiles in one tier or only wall tiles in two tiers. You can select and arrange them on the tabletop, increasing the flexibility of mahjong games. In the mahjong apparatus of the present invention, in addition to those shown in the above embodiments for the mixing tiles, separation device, extrusion device, lifting device, etc., a so-called parts feeder is used for mixing and dispensing, and the mahjong tiles are provided with chamfers. Various types of tiles can be used, such as a mixing tile that arranges the front and back sides of the tiles, a dispensing device, etc.
