Abstract
A gaming machine is provided, a cabinet having a longitudinal axis, a display coupled to the cabinet, and a display transition system. The display transition system is configured for selectively moving the display relative to the cabinet in a direction substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis and between a closed position in which game play at the gaming machine is enabled and an open position in which game play is disabled.
Claims20
A gaming machine comprising:
- a cabinet having a longitudinal axis;
- a display coupled to the cabinet;
- and
- a display transition system comprising at least one support cylinder, the support cylinder comprising a cylinder base and a piston arm slideable with respect to the cylinder base, the display transition system configured to selectively move the display relative to the cabinet in a direction substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis and between a closed position in which game play at the gaming machine is enabled and an open position in which game play is disabled.
