  • Patent number: 10300375
    Abstract: The present invention generally relates to an interchangeable gaming layout powered by a display element that shows the background graphics and table layouts of a gaming table. Specifically, embodiments of the present invention are configured to provide the background graphics and table layout for a gaming table that is presented by a full color display element and is conveniently reconfigurable between games without requiring the entire gaming table and/or layout to be resurfaced. Further embodiments of the present invention are configured to allow for the gaming table and/or layout to provide content (e.g., multimedia content) during downtime or other intermission periods in game-play. Additionally, some embodiments of the present invention are configured with player interface elements that allow players to control a game-play decision or select a supplemental command.

  • Publication number: 20060202671
    Abstract: A molded voltage sensor is provided that achieves excellent sensing accuracy over a wide temperature range by molding primary and secondary capacitances of a voltage divider into a solid dielectric material and wherein the capacitances are preferably fabricated from the same material, or at least materials having nearly identical temperature coefficients of permittivity. In a preferred arrangement, a first member of dielectric material includes a conductive pattern on the outer surface thereof and an electrical connection attached to the conductive pattern. The first member is then molded into a predetermined location with respect to a central conductor and a layer of the dielectric molding material is also molded over the exterior of the first member. Another conductive pattern is formed on the over-molded layer. The overall assembly is then molded to form a body of the desired shape and provides insulation between the conductor and the conductive patterns.
