Abstract
A toy throwing disc that is tossed between players has a unique feature of having the compartment in the center filled with a liquid or gel that creates a stabilizing effect. The water disc is a plastic molded flying disc with an outside molded rim and a sealed compartment in the top that holds water, and additionally may hold gel, glitter, colorful beads, decorative parts, etc. The top and bottom of the center portion is clear to make the contents visible from both sides. The center compartment stabilizes the disc by centrifugal force, creating extra speed and stabilization. The compartment also serves as a chamber that allows for attractive designs to constantly change by movement of the liquid and glitter or objects incorporated in the liquid when the disc is tossed.
Claims5
A toy, comprising:
- an annular ring having a central opening and a circularly symmetric downwardly sloped outer periphery and operatively configured to aerodynamically glide when thrown with an imparted spin;
- a circular compartment attached across the central opening of the annular ring comprising transparent upper and lower windows;
- and
- decorative objects sized for movement placed in the circular compartment.
A toy, comprising:
- an annular ring having a central opening and a circularly symmetric downwardly sloped outer periphery and operatively configured to aerodynamically glide when thrown with an imparted spin;
- and
- a central compartment attached across the central opening of the annular ring comprising a lower reservoir cup projecting downwardly lower than the outer periphery of the annular ring and an enclosure to selectively close the lower reservoir cup;
- wherein the enclosure is operatively configured to open for filling the circular compartment, to seal when depressed into the lower reservoir cup for throwing, and to release allowing water to project out of the lower reservoir cup upon impact.
