Have you ever imagined how amazing it is to think that before we needed slot machines to be mounted on a specific way to work properly? These machines were designed to include three coils mounted on a central cable. The center cable supported three toothed disks, which are connected with the three coils. A second cable below the center supports a kicker, a piece of metal including three beaters. The kickers of the kicker are aligned so they can push against the teeth on all three discs. The second disc also supports a series of connected teeth, which lock into the disc teeth. The kicker and the latches are both connected to springs, which hold them in a holding position. The kicker is held in place behind the discs, while the latches are held against the discs by locking them in place.
We all know you love to hear that buzzing noise that comes from the slot machines. From the point of view of the player, things happen like this: he pulls the lever, then hears a blow and the three coils begin to spin. The parts stop abruptly, one at a time, followed by payment (if necessary). Stopping one at a time creates suspense. If the first reel stops at the grand prize symbol, you have to wait for the next reel to stop to see if it will fall into the grand prize and finally the third. If all three show the right symbol, the player wins. Conventional mechanical slot machines eventually gave way to electric machines, which worked with similar principles. In an electric machine, the coils are rotated by motors and the latches are activated by solenoids, but the game works basically the same way. And at Luck. Info all you have to do is choose a game and press a button!
