Abstract
This disclosure relates generally to gaming equipment and/or accessories, such as dice and dice spinners. In various aspects, disclosed dice spinners include a housing having a top and a bottom, the top defining one or more windows, and a spinner housed within the housing, the spinner having a locking mechanism and at least one dice disk. Disclosed dice spinners may further include a crown in mechanical communication with the spinner such that applying pressure to the crown causes the spinner to spin and display one or more numbers through the one or more windows of the housing.
Claims19
A dice spinner comprising:
- a housing comprising a top and a bottom, the top defining one or more windows;
- a spinner housed within the housing, the spinner comprising:
- a locking mechanism comprising:
- two opposing bodies as a unitary piece,
- a single pivot point, the two opposing bodies each directly connected to the single pivot point,
- a first stopper positioned at an end of one of the two opposing bodies, the first stopper extending along a same curvature as the two opposing bodies,
- a second stopper positioned at an opposite end of the two opposing bodies from the first stopper, the second stopper extending along the same curvature as the two opposing bodies;
- and
- at least one dice disk;
- and
- a crown in mechanical communication with the two opposing bodies of the spinner such that applying pressure to the crown causes the locking mechanism to pivot about the pivot point and release the first stopper and the spinner to spin and display one or more numbers through the one or more windows of the housing.
A dice spinner comprising:
- a housing comprising a top portion and a bottom portion, the top portion defining one or more windows;
- a first spinner housed within the housing, the spinner comprising a locking mechanism comprising:
- a body comprising two ends,
- a single pivot point,
- a first stopper positioned at a first end of the two ends of the body and extending along a same curvature as the body and a second stopper positioned opposite the first end at a second end of the two ends of the body and extending along the same curvature as the body,
- a platform disposed over a portion of the locking mechanism, and
- a dice disk disposed on the platform;
- and
- a crown in mechanical communication with the body of the locking mechanism such that applying pressure to the crown causes the locking mechanism to pivot about the single pivot point and release the first stopper and to disengage the platform, allowing the platform and the dice disk to spin.
