Gaming machine archway with overhead display screen

Gaming machine

An electronic gaming machine (EGM) archway includes a first EGM including at least one first curved display device, the at least one first curved display device defining a first portion of the archway. The EGM archway also includes a second EGM including at least one second curved display device, the at least one second curved display device defining a second portion of the archway, the second EGM spaced apart from and diametrically opposing the first EGM. In addition, the EGM archway includes an overhead display portion including at least one third display device, the at least one third display device defining a third portion of the archway, the overhead display portion extending overhead between the at least one first curved display device and the at least one second curved display device.

Electronic gaming machine archway with overhead display devices

Display screen device

An overhead display assembly includes a display monitor coupled to a monitor tray. The monitor tray is positionable in an operational position and a maintenance position. A support stanchion has an anchoring part, a coupling part, and a stanchion body extending from the anchoring part to the coupling part. The anchoring part is coupleable to a fixed vertical or horizontal supporting structure. A counter-balanced hinging mechanism has one or more pivots upon which monitor tray is configured to rotate with respect to said support stanchion. A force producing device is configured to apply a variable amount of force to the monitor tray based upon a position of the display monitor, the variable amount of force being at least a force sufficient to maintain the monitor tray stationary in an intermediate position between the operational position and the maintenance position.

Method and system for display assembly hinging

A gaming machine island includes a plurality of electronic gaming machines and one or more pedestals upon which the gaming machines are positioned and supported. A support stanchion supports one or more components associated with the gaming machines. The support stanchion has a first anchor end, a second coupling end, and a stanchion body extending therebetween. The first anchor end is coupled to a supporting structure different from the one or more pedestals. A counter-balanced hinging mechanism is coupled to the second coupling end of the support stanchion and at least one monitor frame. The counter-balanced hinging mechanism has first and second arm linkage assemblies that permit the monitor frame to pivot. At least one bias member is coupled to the first and second arm linkage assembly. The at least one bias member applies a variable amount of force to maintain the monitor frame stationary in intermediate positions.
