Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a group of viewers used in recreational machines that provide the player with cash prizes, viewers that, based on the supply of changing images, allow different combinations to be established between the figures of the different viewers, susceptible to prize according to a duly pre-established profit plan.
  • the object of the invention is to provide said group of viewers with a series of features complementary to the classic and previously mentioned, which allow to greatly enhance the gaming capacity of this type of machines with a minimum screen space occupancy of these, giving the aforementioned viewers a multifunctional character.
  • visors or rollers carrying each of them a plurality of figures or images, generally established on a continuous band, are used to achieve the plays. so that such figures appear cyclically in the corresponding viewer to be directly visualized by the player, usually three being the number of viewers participating in the combination, and three also the number of figures that are visible simultaneously in each viewer, through the corresponding window.
  • the group of viewers that the invention proposes has been conceived and structured in order to allow a wide variety of gaming systems, resolving the problems of space, duplicity of mechanisms and versatility mentioned above, specifically allowing in a single space, the corresponding to a single group of viewers or rollers, establish a wide range of alternatives or possibilities of complementary games to the base game.
  • each of said viewers also incorporates three numerical displays, positionally consistent with the three figures just cited, so that regardless of the combinations to be obtained with said figures, specifically three horizontal alignments and two diagonal alignments, it is feasible to obtain at the expense of the aforementioned numerical displays three other horizontal, three vertical and two diagonal combinations, totally independent of those obtained based on the figures and usable for different types of complementary games.
  • These numerical alpha displays are also usable as counters, for example as counters of the number of "advances" which the machine offers to the player, to validate a combination, for the identification of double or single plays, etc.
  • each viewer is assisted by a shutter cover, which allows, in addition to the display of the three figures of each viewer, to hide one or two of them, which in turn once again it supposes another wide range of possibilities in the development of the game to be able to restrict to a greater or lesser extent the images that are visible through the group of viewers.
  • Figure 1 shows a schematic representation in front elevation of a group of combinatorial visors for recreational machines made in order to the present invention, in which part of its figures are hidden by respective shutter caps, specifically in two of them.
  • Figure 2. Shows a representation similar to the previous figure, but in which the shutter covers are fully retracted, showing all the viewfinders.
  • the aforementioned viewers (1), (1 '), (1 ") are provided, as is conventional, with respective groups of figures or images (2) capable of appearing cyclically before the observer through the windows of said viewfinders (1), preferably in number of three as seen especially in figure (2).
  • each viewfinder (1), (1 '), (1 ") also incorporates three alphanumeric displays (3), positionally located in correspondence with the three figures (2) that they are visible in each viewfinder (1), these displays (3) being static and resulting or not operational depending on whether they are illuminated or not and, logically depending on the number they express at each moment.
  • each viewfinder also incorporates a shutter cover (4) capable of allowing the display of the three figures (2) of the viewfinder (1), (1 '),
  • Any of the displays (3) can be used as a "progress meter” for the corresponding viewer (1) or for any of the viewfinders (1), (1 '), (1 ").
  • the sealing caps (4) allow validating, varying, restricting or extending the extension of the value of a play.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un nombre déterminé de fenêtres de visualisation (1), (1'), (1''), comme par exemple trois, à travers lesquelles on peut voir trois figures (2) susceptibles de former plusieurs lignes gagnantes (5), horizontales et diagonales. De plus, lesdites fenêtres de visualisation incorporent des écrans numériques (3), coïncidant en nombre et en position avec lesdites figures visibles (2), tout en étant statiques. Lesdits écrans numériques sont opérationnels lorsqu'ils sont éclairés et en fonction du propre chiffre qu'ils indiquent à chaque moment. Lesdits écrans numériques (3) s'utilisent pour obtenir huit autres lignes gagnantes (6), trois horizontales, trois verticales et deux diagonales, et pour compter simultanément les 'progressions' indicatives des changements qui peuvent être effectués dans les figures et les chiffres montrés par les fenêtres de visualisation. De plus, chaque fenêtre de visualisation (1), (1'), (1'') comprend un couvercle obturateur (4), qui permet de cacher une ou deux figures et leurs écrans numériques correspondants de la fenêtre de visualisation correspondante, afin de valider, de varier, de restreindre ou d'élargir l'extension ou la valeur d'un jeu.
