摘要

The housing for a pinball machine is in two parts. The lower (12) is fixed to the floor (14) and provides a base for the upper part (20). This is formed to suit the shape and playing area of the game in question and contains the game playing area (30) shielded by a transparent panel (29). The two parts are joined together by flexible mountings (42, 48) between them, the arrangement permitting the players to participate in the game by tilting the playing area. If required, sensors can be fitted to record the tilt and influence the socre.
