Abstract

Means are provided for sensing a physical shock to an amusement machine of the type in which a user attempts to obtain a payment of coins from the machine. The means for sensing a physical shock comprises a piezoelectric sensor (1) and a signal provision means (2). The piezoelectric sensor (1) is mounted to the machine. The signal provision means (2) receives signals for the piezoelectric sensor (2) and outputs signals to a control section of the amusement machine when a physical shock is detected.
