Abstract: An electronic gaming machine is described. The electronic gaming machine includes a pedestal including a monitor configured to display an electronic game, a podium configured to receive user input during play of the electronic game, and a drive mechanism operable to selectively move the monitor relative to the pedestal between an open position and a closed position, the drive mechanism including at least one biasing element, a wire harness coupled to the monitor, at least one cable coupled to the podium, and a tensioner, wherein the podium and the tensioner provide a force to control movement of the monitor between the open position and the closed position.

Abstract: An electronic gaming machine includes a cabinet, a monitor configured to display an electronic game, a mount configured to secure the monitor to the cabinet, the mount including a carriage and a linkage assembly pivotably coupled to the carriage and the cabinet, and a lift assembly for moving the mount relative to the cabinet. The lift assembly includes a harness coupled to the carriage and a drive mechanism coupled to the harness and operable to selectively release and retract the harness for moving the monitor relative to the cabinet.

Abstract: A bill validator mount holds a bill validator in a bill insertion position relative to an electronic gaming machine (EGM), such that the bill validator is configured to receive a bill from a player in the bill insertion position. The mount cage assembly facilitates tilting the bill validator backward from the bill insertion position to a servicing position that allows access to the bill validator for servicing from a back of the EGM cabinet. The mount cage assembly additionally facilitates lowering the bill validator from the bill insertion position to a collections position, such that the cash box can be accessed for collections. The mount cage assembly provides a way to easily service the bill validator while keeping the cash box secure.

Abstract: An electronic gaming machine includes a monitor configured to display an electronic game, a cabinet, and a mounting assembly removably coupling the monitor to the cabinet. The mounting assembly includes a carriage moveably coupled to the cabinet, a frame coupled to the monitor for supporting the monitor on the carriage, and a bearing assembly rotatably coupling the frame to the carriage. The bearing assembly includes an arcuately extending guide track and a sliding connector moveably engaged with the guide track, wherein movement of the sliding connector along the guide track causes the monitor to rotate relative to the cabinet.

Abstract: A convertible garment is presented having an opening and a fabric insert. The opening can be releasably closed to cause the leg regions of the garment to tighten around the leg of a user. The garment may be configured for use in sports activities including bicycling and underwater diving.
