In organic fields such as casinos, chips as organic substitute currency are largely stacked and placed on an organic table. However, there is a problem that the total amount cannot be accurately read with an IC tag reader formed under the organic table. If the sensitivity of the device is increased, there is a problem that the total amount of chips as organic substitute currency placed in different locations (win/loss depends on location) is summed up and the total amount of chips as organic substitute currency for each location cannot be grasped. .

In addition, conventionally, as shown in Fig. 2, the pattern of the chip 120 as the organic substitute currency is a complex one, and if a large number of chips as the organic substitute currency are stacked, it is a problem that the camera cannot accurately grasp the number of accumulated longevity. There is.

The chips 120 as the organic substitute currency are not only aligned and stacked in a vertical direction, but also shifted and overlapped as shown in FIG. 2. In this case, when the camera device 2 is positioned in the direction of the arrow X shown in FIG. 2 (or when the direction of the chip 120 as the organic substitute currency is relatively square), the chip 120 as the organic substitute currency ) Is assumed to be invisible (entering the square).

In addition, the dealer needs to collect or redeem the chips 120 as a substitute for organic currency placed on the organic table as a result of winning or losing. Even if it attempts to determine this by image analysis of the chip 120 as the organic substitute currency, the pattern of the chip 120 as the organic substitute currency is complicated, so that it corresponds to the chip 120 as the organic substitute currency. Whether or not the dealer correctly redeemed the chip 120 as a substitute currency for redemption could not be determined by the existing practical image analysis technology, and there was a problem that the prevention of mistakes was not sufficient.

According to the system of the present embodiment, even if a large number of chips 120 as organic substitute money are stacked, the longevity of the chips 120 as organic substitute money can be determined by image analysis. The chip 120 as a currency can also determine the total amount by location and color.

Hereinafter, with reference to the drawings, a chip measurement system in a table game in a table game in an organic field having an organic table 4 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described. 1 is a diagram showing an overall overview of the system, in which the system of the present embodiment in a game field having a plurality of game tables 4 shows the progress of the game played on the game table 4 by a game participant ( 6) and an image recording device 300 for image-analyzing the image of the progress of the recorded game while recording as an image through a plurality of camera devices 2 including the dealer 5 and the total chip amount measuring device ( 302), and a card distributing device 3 that determines and displays the result of winning or losing each game on the playing table 4. The card distribution device 3 is a so-called electronic shoe, already used and known to those skilled in the art, and the rules of the game are programmed in advance, and the information (rank and suit) of the distributed card 1 is read, and the game is won or lost. It has a structure that can determine For example, in a baccarat game, the banker's win, the player's win, and tie (draw) are basically determined by the rank of each 2 to 3 cards, and the decision result (win/loss result) is displayed on the indicator lamp (13). do.

The management control device 14 reads the information (rank and suit) of the card 1 obtained from the card distributing device 3 to determine the outcome of each game, and the game participant 6 The winner (6W) and the loser (6L) among the participants 6 in each game are determined using the measurement result of the position, type, and longevity of the chips 120 as a substitute currency. In addition, the amount of money repaid to the winners (6W) among the participants (6) from the total amount of the casino's income calculation (chips 120 as a substitute currency for organics earned by the loser 6L) on the game table (4). A calculation function is provided for each game to perform an amount obtained by subtracting the total amount of the chips 120 as a substitute currency for use.

The image recording device 300, the total chip amount measurement device 302, and the management control device 14 in the present measurement system have a structure in which a computer, a program, and a memory composed of an integral or a plurality of structures are complexly provided. .

Next, details of a chip as an organic substitute currency used in this measurement will be described. 3 is a front cross-sectional view of a chip 120 as a substitute for organic currency used in the present measurement system, in which layers of different plastics of a plurality of colors are stacked, and at least a colored layer 121 is provided in the middle. It has a multilayered structure in which a white layer 122 or a thin layer (not shown, but may have a lighter color than the colored layer 121) are stacked on both sides of the colored layer 121 in FIG. In this way, a colored layer 121 is provided, and a white layer 122 or a thin layer (not shown, but may be a layer having a lighter color than the colored layer 121) is laminated on both sides of the intermediate colored layer 121 By setting it as a multilayer structure, stripes in the stacking direction are formed on the side surfaces as shown in Fig. 6, and colored layers 121 for each type (10 points, 20 points, 100 points, 1000 points, etc.) of the chips 120 as organic substitutes. ) By changing the color of (red, green, yellow, blue, etc.), it is possible to specify the type of the chip 120 as a substitute currency for organic use.

The chip 120 as a substitute for organic currency is a structure having a colored layer 121 and a white layer 122 or a thin layer at least in appearance so as to form a stripe in the axial direction on the side surface, and the colored layer 121 Accordingly, it has a configuration capable of specifying the type of the chip 120 as a substitute currency for organic use. 4A and 4B are different examples, respectively, but as an example in which the colored layer 121 and the white layer 122 or the thin layer are formed by injection molding, the colored layer 121 is first in a molding mold (not shown). ) Is formed, and then the white layer 122 or the thin layer is formed by so-called two-color molding.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, the chip 120 as an organic substitute money is printed on the surface (top and lower surface) of the white layer 122, indicating the type of the chip 120 as an organic substitute money. (100 points, etc.) are implemented. As shown in Fig. 3, a transparent layer 124 is formed on the outermost layer, and the layers are thermocompressed to form at least a five-layer structure. The chips 120 as these organic substitutes are thermally pressed between each layer (the colored layer 121, the white layer 122, and the transparent layer 124) in an elongated state by using an elongated plastic material. Is formed in a tightly adhered state (such as a five-layer structure), and then is formed by punching into a circular or rectangular shape by pressing or the like. When punching by a press, dimensions of the die and punch of the die for punching are designed, and R processing (round corners) is performed on the end of the outermost transparent layer 124.

That is, when manufacturing the chip 120 as a substitute currency for organic use, first, a colored layer 121 made of a plate-shaped plastic, and a white layer 122 made of a plate-shaped plastic or a thin layer are laminated to form a plurality of plastics. To form a laminated structure consisting of layers of. Then, a pattern is printed on the upper and lower surfaces of the laminated structure, and a transparent layer 124 is formed thereon again. And each layer of the laminated structure and the transparent layer 124 is heat-pressed, and each layer is thermally welded to produce a substitute currency original plate. The thus-produced substitute currency original plate is punched out by means of a mold to obtain a plurality of chips 120 as organic substitute currencies having a predetermined shape. During this punching process, the upper and lower corners of the outside of the chip 120 as an organic substitute currency are R-processed with a mold.

In addition, on the chip 120 as a substitute currency for organic use, a face code made of UV ink or carbon black ink is formed on the surface of the white layer 122 (see Fig. 5). This face code indicates the authenticity of the chip 120 as a substitute currency for organic use, and when exposed to ultraviolet rays (or infrared rays), the mark becomes visible, indicating the authenticity by a combination of its shape and number. Fig. 6 is a perspective view of a state in which chips 120 as organic substitute currency are stacked, and a combination of a long cord FL and a short cord FS is a face cord F. A transparent layer (printing layer) 124 is thermally pressed or coated (applied) on the outermost layer to cover the printing 123 or the face code, but the transparent layer 124 is embossed to form a chip as a substitute currency for organic use. It is preventing 120 from coming into close contact with each other. In addition, in the present embodiment, an example in which a face code is printed on the surface of the white layer 122 has been described, but instead of the face code or together with the face code, either a security mark or an optical variable device (OVD) Or you may print both.

The end of the outermost transparent layer (printing layer) 124 on which printing 123 (100 points, etc.) has been applied is subjected to R processing (R), and in the punching process of the chip 120 as a substitute currency for organic use, The surface of the white layer 122 is prevented from being deformed and appearing on the side surfaces. In addition, the chip 120 as an organic substitute currency is prevented from leaving a sharp edge and damaging the hand or the chip 120 as another organic substitute currency.

The colored layer 121 may be formed of a plurality of colored layers (three layers in FIG. 3 ), as shown in FIG. 3. Since a plurality of colored layers (three layers in Fig. 3) are thermocompressed to each other, the three-layer structure is not visible to the naked eye as shown in Fig. 3, and Fig. 3 shows three layers for explanation. Furthermore, in the middle of the three layers of the colored layer 121, a partially cut-out portion (B) is formed, in which the RFID 125 is incorporated.

In addition, the RFID 125 is disposed between the colored layer 121 on the flat surface and the white layer 122 on the flat surface without forming the cut-out portion (B) in the colored layer 121, and as it is, the colored layer By thermo-compressing the 121 and the white layer 122, they may be incorporated into the chip 120 as an organic substitute currency. By constituting at least one of the colored layer 121 and the white layer 122 from a material capable of thermally deformable such as plastic, the colored layer 121 and the white layer 122 sandwiching the RFID 125 by thermal compression bonding Since the inner plastic layer is thermally deformed, the RFID 125 is tightly fixed between the layers even if the cut-out portion B is not formed.

Fig. 7 is a perspective explanatory photographic view illustrating a state in which chips 120 of different types are stacked as a substitute currency for organic use. In the drawing, the management control device 14 captures an image of a chip 120 as an organic substitute currency placed by the player 6 of the game on the playing table 4 with the camera device 2, and the placed area 8 ) Measured by a total chip amount measuring device 302 equipped with an image recording device 300 for each (Banker, Player, Pair, or TIE) In addition, the number and color of the colored layer 121 (or thin layer) or the white layer 122 of the chip 120 as a substitute for organic currency stacked in each area is determined by the total chip amount measuring device 302 ( Using the information obtained by the image recording apparatus 300) analysis and measurement are performed to determine the type and number of chips 120 as a substitute currency for organic use.
