- The present invention relates to devices for protecting gambling ships stored in a chip rack.
- Prevention of theft of gambling chips at gambling tables is a constant concern for gambling facility operators. While monitoring of gamblers may prevent thefts from being successful after illegally grabbing gambling chips from a gambling chip rack, preventing the thief from gaining possession of the chips is preferable. However, any device that prevents such theft must also permit the gambling chips to be visible to gamblers, so that the gamblers may have confidence in the transactions in chip exchanges made by the individual in control of the gambling chip rack. Accordingly, there is a need in the art for a structure that can protect gambling chips stored in a gambling chip rack while still permitting viewing of the chips.
- This background information is provided to reveal information believed by the applicant to be of possible relevance to the present invention. No admission is necessarily intended, nor should be construed, that any of the preceding information constitutes prior art against the present invention.

In some embodiments, the shield section may have a curvature. In further embodiments, the curvature of the shield section may defines a concavity on a lower surface thereof.
- In some embodiments, the shield section may be attached to a portion of the attachment section that is proximate to the chip storage section of the gambling chip rack. In some embodiments, the shield section may be attached to a portion of the attachment section that is distant from the chip storage section of the gambling chip rack.
- In some embodiments, the attachment section and the shield section may be integrally formed as a single member. In some embodiments, the shield section may be transparent. In some embodiments, the shield section may be configured to extend such that it vertically overlies a chip cover of the gambling chip rack. In some embodiments, the gambling chip shield may have a length that is less than a length of the chip storage section of the gambling chip rack.
