Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a mahjong table equipped with a mechanism that facilitates the alignment of mahjong tiles during a mahjong game.

Conventionally, the alignment device for automatic mahjong tile alignment machines is as follows:
A stirring mechanism for the mahjong tiles in the center of the mahjong top, a cylinder provided on the outer periphery of the stirring mechanism, a feeder mechanism provided at the top of the cylinder group, a detection mechanism provided below the cylinder, A detection mechanism located at the bottom, a detection mechanism that detects the front and back sides of the mahjong tiles, a bone tile mechanism that distributes the mahjong tiles into quarter circles with an intermediate wall, and a middle wall that presses toward the center and stacks them in two layers to form four rules. There was a structure in which the mahjong tiles were automatically stirred, made into bone tiles, and pushed up after being aligned using an alignment mechanism that arranged the tiles and a tabletop setting mechanism that pushed the aligned mahjong tiles onto the chassis.

However, these systems not only make the arrangement and arrangement of mahjong tiles complicated and expensive because they are fully automatic, but they also generate mechanical noise, which impairs the enjoyment of the game for those playing mahjong games. That's what happens.

Furthermore, fully automatic machines have a very complicated mechanism, so even the slightest malfunction can easily cause a breakdown, requiring the game to be interrupted each time.

This invention starts from a viewpoint different from that of the conventional automatic alignment mechanism, and aims to provide a manual mahjong table equipped with a simple mahjong tile alignment mechanism having a structure completely different from that of the conventional one.

An embodiment of this invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view of the Mahjong table of this invention, viewed from the surface.

Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA in Fig. 1, showing the state in which the mahjong tiles have been arranged according to this invention, and Fig. 3 is a partial cross-sectional view taken in the direction perpendicular to Fig. 2. The figure is a partial explanatory diagram of FIG. 3.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a rectangular table stand with legs for playing a mahjong game, and recesses 4 are provided between the table table surface 2 and the table base 3 on the inside of the four sides of the table stand.

Reference numeral 5 denotes a rectangular movable plate that fits into the recess 4, and the movable plate 5 is hinged at the upper part 6 of the inner surface of the vehicle chassis of the recess 4 with a hinge 7 so as to rotate outward from the chassis. It is inclined so that it is flush with the tabletop 1.

Further, inside the recess 4, there is disposed a support bar 11 whose lower end is pivotally connected by a bearing 8 fixed to the base 3 and a pin 9, and whose upper end has a wheel 10 pivoted to abut the lower surface of the movable plate 5.

The support bar 11 is directly fixed or pivoted to the knob shaft 14 fixed to the knob 19 which moves along the substantially arc-shaped slit 13 provided in the side plate 12 of the tabletop 1, thereby supporting the movable plate 5.
I'm trying to move it up and down.

The substantially arc-shaped slit 13 can function as a stopper for the knob shaft 14 by providing a slightly descending portion at the top.

The vertical width of the movable plate 5 is equal to the slit 13 of the knob shaft 14.
Since the angle of inclination of the movable plate 5 within the recess 4 can be freely determined, the angle of inclination of the movable plate 5 within the recess 4 can be freely determined.

Further, the support bars 11 are provided at two locations at required locations in the recess 4, and the two support bars 11 are rotatably supported by pins 15 and 15' to construct the connecting rod 21.
The vertical movement of the movable plate 5 can be made smooth and the stability of the movable plate 5 can be made stronger.

Furthermore, a guide plate 17 is disposed on the table stand 1 or the movable plate 5 itself at the side end of the movable plate 5 in the rotation direction to prevent the mahjong tiles 16 from falling to the side. In order to arrange mahjong tiles 16, a notch 20 is provided on the inner surface of the side plate 12 so that the sides of the side plate 12 and the alignment plate 18 coincide with each other. The tiles 16 can be easily aligned.

To use this device with the above configuration, first, at the end of the game, turn the knob 19 along the slit 13 in the direction of the arrow to connect the support bar 11 (if there are two support bars, connect the connecting rod 21). ) and move the movable plate 5 into the recess 4.
Lower and tilt inward.

Then, 34 mahjong tiles 16 are placed in the four movable plates, and the mahjong tiles 16 are arranged in two stages using the alignment plate 18.

Furthermore, the game is started by turning the aligned mahjong tiles 16 in the direction of the arrow in the opposite direction to the above, raising them onto the chassis surface 2, and pushing forward the mahjong WIs 116 aligned in two stages by hand.

This invention allows you to play mahjong games relatively easily by repeating these operations.

As mentioned above, according to this invention, mahjong tiles can be easily arranged without the need for complicated equipment, and there is no mechanical noise, making it much easier to align the mahjong tiles than traditional mahjong games. In addition, it has excellent effects such as being easier to align and more accurate than conventional primitive ones while remaining unchanged.

According to this invention, the conventional fully automated mahjong table not only reduces manufacturing costs, but also has been completed in such a way that the structure does not spoil the taste of the mahjong game.
