Dual action push-type button

摘要

A dual action button assembly permits a user to depress a portion of a push button or to rotate the push button to provide input. The dual action button assembly comprises a push button having a plunger which is moveable relative to a housing to actuate a first electrical switch. The push button is rotatably mounted to a button support. Rotation of the push button causes an actuator to actuate a second electrical switch. The dual action button assembly may be custom configured with a push button or be configured as an attachment for use with an existing single-action push button to retro-fit such a button to a dual action button. The dual action button has particular utility to wagering type gaming machines.
