Cyclic viewer for slot machines
First Claim
1. A cyclic viewer for slot machines comprising:
- a. a dihedral support having a first face and a second face oriented along a different plane than said first face and a window formed in at least one of said first and second faces; and
b. a flexible disc having a circumference and images arranged on said circumference, said flexible disc being adapted for rotation within said dihedral support and said images being viewable through said window of said dihedral support during said rotation of said disc;
c. wherein said dihedral support maintains said flexible disc in a dihedral, substantially “
L”
-shaped configuration during rotation of said disc.

Abstract
A viewer for slot machines has a dihedral support (7) equipped with a large circular window (8) extended through the faces of the support (7), for the display of a disc (1) of flexible transparent or translucid plastic provided along its circumference with an alignment of images (2). The disc (1) is retained by the support (7) across its circumference and, in one embodiment, permanently maintains a dihedral configuration, showing an observer an alignment of images (2) according to a circumferential arc of variable amplitude according to the level of concealment of the front face of the assembly. In another embodiment, the disc is supported by two bracings so as to assume a “U”-shaped configuration, with two semicircular sectors and one intermediate sector.

7. A cyclic viewer for slot machines comprising:
-
a. a housing having a front door and a pair of orthogonal supports contained therein; and
b. a flexible disc having a diameter and a circumference and images arranged on said circumference;
c. said flexible disc being supported within said housing by said pair of orthogonal supports arranged in a spaced apart parallel relationship on either side of a diameter of said flexible disc such that said flexible disc forms a substantially “
U”
-shaped configuration having a first and second substantially semi-circularly shaped sectors and an intermediate diametric sector disposed therebetween;
d. said flexible disc adapted for rotation within said housing while in said “
U”
-shaped configuration and said images being viewable along said intermediate sector during said rotation of said flexible disc.- View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
