  • Patent number: 12266235
    Abstract: A display mounting system includes first and second base supports, a lateral support system, and display module hanger brackets. The lateral support system includes a first lateral support element and second lateral support element and is adapted to be placed in a display module receiving configuration in which the lateral support system is connected to the first and second base supports in a supporting configuration. Each display module hanger bracket has a respective hanger structure and a respective stabilizing structure. When one of the display module hanger brackets is placed in an installed position on the lateral support system, the hanger structure of that respective display module hanger bracket is supported along a height axis by the first lateral support element while the stabilizing structure of the display module hanger bracket cooperates with the second lateral support element to position the stabilizing structure relative to the second lateral support element.

  • Publication number: 20240342619
    Abstract: A chair sled attachment assembly includes a base structure and a chair sled receiver supported on the base structure. The base structure is connected to a gaming machine cabinet in a base position projecting in a front direction from a front side of the cabinet and a base cover of the base structure defines a base volume separate from a secure volume of the cabinet. The chair sled receiver includes a chair sled receiving feature adapted for receiving a portion of a chair sled assembly when a chair sled is placed in an operating position on the gaming machine. A removable cover portion of the base structure is removably secured to the base structure in a cover position covering the chair sled receiving feature.

  • Patent number: 12023595
    Abstract: A chair sled attachment assembly includes a base structure, a support bracket, and a base access panel. The base structure is connected to a gaming machine cabinet in a base position projecting in a front direction from a front side of the cabinet and defines a base volume separate from a secure volume of the cabinet. The base structure also defines a base access opening to provide access to the base volume. The support bracket is located within the base volume adjacent to the base access opening and includes a support bracket connecting arrangement to which a chair sled receiver is connectable in a chair sled receiver operating position. The base access panel is removably secured to the base structure in a cover position substantially covering the base access opening.
