- Gaming machines which facilities for payment of money won are already there known for a long time. On such devices, however manipulations were constantly carried out to make this happen in the devices to unlawfully withdraw the money it contains. This happens particularly often, if the installation locations are confusing or the devices available in a number that is difficult to control are. The latter is especially true in larger casinos the case.
- GB-A-2 208 737 discloses a gaming machine which no longer wins in a certain amount Form of cash paid out directly on the gaming machine will. Rather, from this amount on the gaming machine a voucher will be issued and the winning data will be transferred to a central club computer. At The transferred data will then be presented as a receipt compared with the data of the receipt and the amount of profit paid. This gaming machine will be bigger Amounts were not paid directly, so that Gaming machine an ever increasing sum of money remains.
- the safest protection against unauthorized withdrawals is in that there is no money in these devices, which is intended for payment. That for money thrown into the game can be stored in a safe, which is arranged in the device base, for example, be kept with sufficient security.
- EP-A-0 208 857 provides that everyone on a gaming machine achieved profit in the form of a voucher is issued. This voucher is then redeemable to be sent to a prize allocation office.
- the invention has for its object a device to create by means of which it is possible on a designated for payout and in the gaming machine to waive the contained cash reserve and nevertheless pay out tamper-proof money winnings.
- the solution according to the invention goes in its preamble from EP-A-0 208 857 and is characterized by it from that on such gaming machines with one central control unit connected button, key switch or the like are provided, according to their Actuation via the device-internal device device-specific Characteristics and the final status of the profit storage are expendable, and that on and / or in the gaming machine a display is provided on which after input the previously issued device-specific characteristics via an arranged on or in the gaming machine and input unit connected to the central control unit the assigned to the respective characteristics and saved amounts of profit can be displayed.
- An alternative design variant of the invention Solution (claim 2) is that on such gaming machines one connected to the central control unit Key, key switch or the like provided are, after their actuation via the device internal Device specific characteristics and the device Final status of the profit storage are output, and that on and / or a signaling device in the gaming machine is provided after entering the previously issued device-specific characteristics and the profit amount via an arranged on or in the gaming machine and with input unit connected to the central control unit, that determined by the central control unit Match or disagreement of such entered data with the assigned data in the profit memory signals.
- the device internal device for outputting the device-specific characteristics of accrued profits and / or the final status of the profit memory as a data printer trained to output a print log which is removable from the player from the gaming machine and can be presented at a cash register as proof of payment is.
- Another advantageous embodiment of the invention provides that the input unit has a keyboard for Entry of the device-specific characteristics.
- the device-specific characteristics can be used to unambiguously and largely forgery-proof identification a device number and / or the date and / or time and / or contain further data.
- you can the device-specific characteristics in a coded Form can be output.
- Another advantageous design variant of the invention The basic idea is that in accordance with the invention trained gaming machines a device for automatic detection and / or transfer of the on the print log or memory card Data is arranged. This variant would then a possible check again by the service personnel on the gaming machine.
- the data carrier (s) would be inserted into the device entered for automatic data recognition and from the central control unit of the gaming machine compared with the data stored in the gaming machine will. A match found (or disagreement) would then be caused by the central control unit of the gaming machine signals. The payment of the amount won would be at established agreement at the checkout.
- the gaming machine 1 shown in Fig. La has one integrated printer 4, however, no payout unit for the payment of money won.
- This Printer 4 either prints after each one Winning money or after pressing button 3, what to Example can be done after completing the game a print log 7.
- Print protocol 7 are next to the amount of money won 24 device-specific characteristics 21 to 23 included. A later identification is made by means of the device number 21 of the gaming machine 1, on which the expression was created. Furthermore, these include device-specific characteristics 21 to 23 the date 22 and the time 23 of the respective creation of this print log 3. All data can also be in an encoded form 25 on the print log 7 included be.
- print log 7 comes the player to a cash register 8, where he is on the print log 7 noted amount of winnings 24 is paid out. If there are doubts about the authenticity of print log 7, so the service personnel on the gaming machine 1 over a keyboard 10, which is on or in the gaming machine 1, by entering the device-specific characteristics 21 to 23 the display of the in the gaming machine 1 initiate saved winnings 24 on the display 9. The visual comparison of the data of the Print protocol 7 and that of the display 9 a match, so the amount won will be 24 at checkout 8 paid.
- Gaming machines have a device for automatic Detection and / or adoption of those on the print log or the data contained in the memory card is. This variant would then be a necessary one Control by the service staff on the gaming machine. To do this, the (or the) disk in the device for automatic Data recognition entered and from the central control unit of the gaming machine with those in gaming machine stored data are compared, with a possibly incorrect data entry via the keyboard 10 is unnecessary. A definite agreement (or disagreement) would then through the central control unit of the gaming machine signals. The payment of the amount won would at checkout if there is a match respectively.
