Abstract

A toy disc having a recess formed by an upstanding edge connected to a bottom structure. A stabilizing member is disposed in the recess. The toy disc may be thrown in a desired direction.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A toy disc comprising a bottom-flight structure having a thickness, and an upstanding edge integrally coupled to the bottom-flight structure and having a thickness greater than the thickness of the bottom-flight structure. 
   
   
       2 . The toy disc of  claim 1  wherein said bottom-flight structure having a structure defining a recess generally concentrically disposed thereon. 
   
   
       3 . The toy disc of  claim 2  additionally comprising an elevated structure circumscribing the recess. 
   
   
       4 . The toy disc of  claim 3  wherein said elevated structure has a sloping outer surface. 
   
   
       5 . The toy disc of  claim 4  additionally comprising a stabilizing member disposed on said bottom-flight structure. 
   
   
       6 . The toy disc of  claim 5  wherein said bottom-flight structure and said upstanding edge respectively comprise a bottom recess and an edge recess, and said stabilizing member lodges in said bottom recess and said edge recess. 
   
   
       7 . The toy disc of  claim 5  wherein said stabilizing member comprises a planar base member and an upstanding stabilizing edge coupled to the planar base member. 
   
   
       8 . A toy disc comprising a bottom-flight structure, an upstanding edge integrally coupled to the bottom-flight structure to form a recess, and a stabilizing member disposed in said recess. 
   
   
       9 . The toy disc of  claim 8  wherein said stabilizing member comprises a ring member. 
   
   
       10 . The toy disc of  claim 9  wherein said stabilizing member additionally comprises a safety member coupled to said ring member. 
   
   
       11 . The toy disc of  claim 9  wherein said safety member comprises a vertical cross section defining a curved edge and a generally straight edge terminating in said curved edge. 
   
   
       12 . The toy disc of  claim 9  wherein said stabilizing member comprises a planar base member, and an upstanding stabilizing edge coupled to said planar base member. 
   
   
       13 . The toy disc of  claim 12  additionally comprising a safety member coupled to the planar base member. 
   
   
       14 . The toy disc of  claim 13  wherein said bottom-flight structure and said upstanding edge respectively comprise a bottom recess and an edge recess, and said safety member and said upstanding stabilizing edge respectively lodge in said bottom recess and in said edge recess. 
   
   
       15 . The toy disc of  claim 8  wherein said stabilizing member comprises a circular plate member, and an upstanding stabilizing edge coupled to the circular plate member. 
   
   
       16 . The toy disc of  claim 15  wherein said circular plate member comprises a structure defining a recess. 
   
   
       17 . The toy disc of  claim 15  wherein said upstanding edge is thicker than said bottom-flight structure, and said upstanding stabilizing edge is thicker than said circular plate member. 
   
   
       18 . A method for throwing a toy disc comprising providing a recess defined by a bottom-flight structure coupled to an upstanding edge, and a stabilizing member disposed in said recess; and throwing the toy disc in a desired direction. 
   
   
       19 . The method of  claim 18  additionally comprising spinning the toy disc on a finger inserted into a bottom recess in said bottom-flight structure. 
   
   
       20 . The method of  claim 18  additionally comprising disposing said toy disc in water, said toy disc possessing sufficient buoyancy such that a structure of the toy disc extends above the water.
