Abstract: An RFID plaque box provides secure storage and protection of value tokens (e.g., gaming plaques and jetons) of all sizes and shapes (e.g., rectangular, square, oval or round) and delivers real-time counting and movement details in both high and low frequency RF environments. The RFID plaque box allows plaques or jetons to be accounted for as part of the table's inventory along with the RFID chip tray's inventory (when installed). The RFID plaque box is provided as a fixed storage area that is situated below the plan of the gaming table alongside the RFID chip tray (when provided) with a lid very similar to that of the RFID chip tray or provided in a pop-up mechanism whereby the RFID plaque box is integrated into a gaming table such that when the top surface of the RFID plaque box is pushed, the RFID plaque box will pop-up to lift the stacks of plaques or jetons for access.

Abstract: A flush valve mechanism for controlling the flushing action of water through the water outlet of a flush cistern, comprising, in combination: (a) a water outlet valve to effect the flushing action; (b) a buoyant device, at least indirectly engaging the outlet valve, to exert a maintaining force thereon at the completion of the lifting thereof and to hold it open while the cistern is emptying and until the completion of a predetermined flushing action; and (c) a shock damping device attachable to the outlet valve and, comprising an inverted cup-shaped member and a body member, the body member being configured to freely move within the inner surface of the cup, the cup-shaped member and the body member defining therebetween a changeable volume of substantially surrounded space and having restricted openings for the passage of water into and out of the space, whereby upon attachment of the device to the valve, any vertical movement of the water outlet valve will also be affected by the device, whereby, upon the
