Definitions

  • the present invention relates to game machines, and in particular it refers to an illuminated push-button for such machines.
  • the known illuminated push-buttons essentially include a body for engaging the game machine and for housing a sliding element, intended for carrying out the opening and closing stroke of the push-button electrical connection, and for supporting at its upper end an overbody providing a seat for a transparent cap fit for enabling the light passage emitted by a lamp opportunely housed inside the sliding element.
  • a drawback of the known illuminated push-button is that they incorporate a lamp support different from the micro-switch support which is separated from the electrical means of the push-button connecting to the control card of the game machine.
  • the main object of the present invention is to propose an illuminated push-button incorporating a single supporting means for the lighting, commutation and connecting means.
  • numeral 1 indicates an illuminated push-button for game machine, known and not shown, that is essentially including a body 2, a sliding element 3, a fixing element, the so-called overbody 4, a cap 5, a supporting means 9, a light source 6, electrical commutation means 7, connecting means 8 and a bolt 11.
  • the body 2 is internally hollow and houses the sliding element 3 with the interposition of a spring, not shown, and outside is provided with a threaded zone to facilitate the hooking of the push-button 1 to the game machine by means of the bolt 11.
  • the sliding element 3 is internally hollow, it houses the light source 6, that consists of a LED cup 6a, 6b that, in the preferred embodiment, they produce light of the same color and that, in a variant, have different coloring.
  • the overbody 4 is fixed to the upper portion of the body 2 and constitutes the peripheral viewable portion of the push-button 1.
  • the electrical commutation means 7 consists of a microswitch.
  • the connecting means 8 include at least a pin connector for housing the corresponding connector for the electrical connection of the push-button to the control card of the game machine.
  • the supporting means 9 of the light source 6, of the electrical commutation means 7 and of the connecting means 8, consists of a single board where the components are tinned thereon and are made of the two LED 6a, 6b, the microswitch 7 and the connector 8.
  • the operation of the push-button 1 provides the activation of the light source whose brightness hits the inside wall of the cap 5, back-illuminating this latter and allowing the primary lighting of the bright push-button 1.
  • the brightness of the light source and therefore the brightness and coloring of the cap 5 depends on the activation of one or both LED, and, as already said, it/they can emit light of the same or different color.
  • the main advantage of the present invention is to supply an illuminated push-button incorporating a single supporting means for the lighting means and for the commutation and electrical connecting means.
