Abstract:

Disclosed is a broadband, miniaturized, slow-wave antenna for transmitting and receiving radio frequency (RF) signals. The slow-wave antenna comprises a dielectric substrate with a traveling wave structure mounted on one surface, and a conductive surface member mounted on the opposite surface. The traveling wave structure, for example, is of the broadband planar type such as various types of spirals and includes conductive arms which are coupled to feed lines which are routed through the dielectric substrate and the conductive surface member for connection to a transmitter or receiver. The dielectric substrate is of a predetermined thickness which is, for example, less than 0. 04. lambda. sub. 1, where. lambda. sub. 1 is the free space wavelength of the lowest frequency f. sub.

Abstract:

A gaming machine has a cabinet, one or more first displays, and a topper mount which supports a topper display above the cabinet and the first display(s). The topper mount may comprise a tower which extends upwardly from the cabinet and arms which extend upwardly from the tower to support the topper display. The topper mount extends behind the topper display while supporting the topper display outwardly in alignment with the first display(s) and directly adjacent to the first display(s). The topper mount may define an internal cable routing path from the topper display into the cabinet.
