ABSTRACT:
A reel spin mechanism for use in an amusement or game device includes a reel mounted for rotation, and a disc having notches in its periphery is attached to the reel. A drive lever mechanism having a drive member at its distal end is pivotally mounted, and a system for pivoting the drive lever mechanism toward and away from the disc is provided to engage and disengage the drive member with a notch on the disc. The pivoting system effects full engagement of the drive member with a notch and then effects a few degrees of controlled rotation of the reel in a first direction of rotation. Another mechanism thereafter imparts spin to the reel in a direction opposite the first rotative direction of the reel.
