Abstract

A slant type gaming cabinet includes a housing having an operating member, a display tiltably supported in the housing and a linking device which links tilting movement of the display with an operation of the operating member. On the display, games such as roulette, keno, poker, bingo and lotto can be displayed. When the operating member is operated by a player, the display is tilted by the linking device in conjunction with the operation of the operating member. The operating member may be a rotating handle. Moreover, a button may be used as the operating member and the display may be tilted by an operation of a motor according to an operation of the button.

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A gaming cabinet comprising:
 a housing having an operating member;   a display tiltably supported in the housing; and   a linking device configured to link tilting movement of the display relative to the housing with an operation of the operating member.   
   
   
       2 . The gaming cabinet according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the operating member is a rotating handle to be rotated by a player in a direction corresponding to a tilting movement direction of the display, and   the linking device has a power conversion element for converting rotation of the rotating handle into the tilting movement of the display.   
   
   
       3 . The gaming cabinet according to  claim 1 ,
 further comprising: a drive source connected to the linking device so as to be capable of transmitting power to the linking device and configured to be driven according to operation contents of the operating member,   wherein the operating member is operated with operation contents that vary depending on a tilting movement direction of the display, and   wherein by use of the power transmitted from the drive source, the linking device tilts the display in the tilting movement direction corresponding to each of the operation contents of the operating member.   
   
   
       4 . A gaming cabinet comprising:
 a housing having an operating member;   a frame tiltably supported in the housing;   a display supported by the frame; and   a linking device configured to link tilting movement of the frame relative to the housing with an operation of the operating member.   
   
   
       5 . The gaming cabinet according to  claim 4 , wherein
 the operating member is a rotating handle to be rotated by a player in a direction corresponding to a tilting movement direction of the frame, and   the linking device has a power conversion element for converting rotation of the rotating handle into the tilting movement of the frame.   
   
   
       6 . The gaming cabinet according to  claim 4 ,
 further comprising: a drive source connected to the linking device so as to be capable of transmitting power to the linking device and configured to be driven according to operation contents of the operating member,   wherein the operating member is operated with operation contents that vary depending on a tilting movement direction of the frame, and   wherein by use of the power transmitted from the drive source, the linking device tilts the frame in the tilting movement direction corresponding to each of the operation contents of the operating member.   
   
   
       7 . A gaming cabinet comprising:
 a housing having an operating member;   a frame tiltably supported in the housing;   a display supported by the frame;   rotating reels being rotatably supported by the frame, being arranged behind the display, and being visible through the display; and   a linking device configured to link tilting movement of the frame relative to the housing with an operation of the operating member.   
   
   
       8 . The gaming cabinet according to  claim 7 , wherein
 the operating member is a rotating handle to be rotated by a player in a direction corresponding to a tilting movement direction of the frame, and   the linking device has a power conversion element for converting rotation of the rotating handle into the tilting movement of the frame.   
   
   
       9 . The gaming cabinet according to  claim 7 ,
 further comprising: a drive source connected to the linking device so as to be capable of transmitting power to the linking device and configured to be driven according to operation contents of the operating member,   wherein the operating member is operated with operation contents that vary depending on a tilting direction of the frame, and   wherein by use of the power transmitted from the drive source, the linking device tilts the frame in the tilting movement direction corresponding to each of the operation contents of the operating member.
