  • Modified playing card shuffler and method of modifying a playing card shuffler to accommodate playing cards of different sizes
    Patent number: 10493358
    Abstract: A card shuffler or other card handling apparatus defines a card receiving and/or dispensing area that accepts cards of multiple sizes. In one embodiment, structural elements such as sidewalls and an end-wall cause the card receiving/dispensing area to have a first size for accommodating cards of a first size. One or more spacers may be removably located in the card receiving/dispensing area, thus causing the card receiving/dispensing area to reduce the effective size of the receiving/dispensing area, such as to reduce its width, so as to accept or accommodate cards of a second size which is smaller than the first size.
