A creative and industrious American, by the name of Charles Fey, began inventing, designing and manufacturing slot machines in early 1894 from his workshop in San Francisco, United states. Charles Fey later went on to pioneered many innovations of coin operated gambling devices, including the original three reel and bell slot machine in the year 1898.
The “Liberty Bell” design is considered to be the precursor of all modern slot machines as its basic design continues to be incorporated in all of the mechanical and online gaming devices played today. The simple mechanical devices with three old-style reels holding 20 symbols have evolved into microprocessor-controlled software with up to five spinning reels holding hundreds of symbols.
The Liberty เว็บสล็อตใหม่ล่าสุด Bell machine differed a lot from the slots we know today. The Liberty Bell machine was made almost entirely of cast iron, and weighed over 100 lbs. The symbols integrated into the reels were stars, horseshoes, and cards suits.
The Operator Bell Slot machine was the next instalment from Charles Fey. However this time round he used different fruit for the symbols. The Bell Fruit company produced the ‘fruit machines’ which paid fruit-flavoured chewing gums to the winners, instead of coins which was previously the case.
