A composite card shuffling apparatus for shuffling a first set of cards and a second set of cards, comprising:
- a first card input assembly having a first card input housing and a first card input guiding device, wherein the first card input housing is configured to accommodate the first set of cards, and the first card input guiding device is configured to sequentially move out the first set of cards from the first card input housing;
- a first card slot rotating assembly having a first main body and a first rotating device, wherein the first main body has a plurality of card slots defined thereon, and the first rotating device is connected to the first main body for rotating the first main body, so that the plurality of card slots of the first main body respectively receive the first set of cards sequentially moved out from the first card input housing;
- a first card output assembly having a first card output housing and a first card output driving device, wherein the first card output driving device is configured to respectively move each of the first set of cards from the plurality of card slots into the first card output housing;
- a second card input assembly disposed with the first card input assembly side by side and having a second card input housing and a second card input guiding device, wherein the second card input housing is configured to accommodate the second set of cards, and the second card input guiding device is configured to sequentially move out the second set of cards from the second card input housing;
- a second card slot rotating assembly disposed with the first card slot rotating assembly side by side and having a second main body and a second rotating device, wherein the second main body has a plurality of card slots defined thereon, and the second rotating device is connected to the second main body for rotating the second main body, so that the plurality of card slots of the second main body respectively receive the second set of cards sequentially moved out from the second card input housing;
- a second card output assembly disposed with the first card output assembly side by side and having a second card output housing and a second card output driving device, wherein the second card output driving device is configured to respectively move each of the second set of cards from the plurality of card slots into the second card output housing;
- and
- a rotary alignment assembly having a first rotating arm, a second rotating arm and a transporting carrier, wherein after the first set of cards enter the first card output housing, and the second set of cards enter the second card output housing, the first rotating arm and the second rotating arm respectively rotate by a predetermined degrees, so that the first card output housing and the second card output housing are aligned along a straight line;
- and wherein after the first card output housing and the second card output housing are aligned, the transporting carrier pushes upward along the straight line from a position below a bottom of the first and the second card output housings, so that the first set of cards and the second set of cards are stacked and pushed to a card picking opening.
