Abstract

See full text

A flexible lighting strip in the form of a T-molding covers a board edge of a video or arcade game cabinet, allowing decorative lighting to be applied to the cabinet. The T-molding includes a flexible casing having a head portion with an upper surface formed of a transparent or translucent plastic material, and a hollow channel formed in the head portion that extends along the casing. The channel accommodates insertion of a flexible lighting strip formed of a flexible printed circuit board substrate with light emitting diodes mounted on the substrate, so emitted light shines through the transparent upper surface of the casing. The casing has an anchor strip for insertion into a groove formed in the cabinet board edge to anchor the casing to the board edge via frictional engagement. A method is provided for applying the lighted T-molding to a video or arcade game cabinet.
