Abstract

The present invention provides a device for improving the flying characteristics of conventional flying discs. The flying disc comprises a hollow tubing of a length sufficient to encircle the inner circumference of the flying disc forming a continuous hollow ring. The hollow tube encloses ball bearings, which can freely roll inside the hollow tubing, and the number of ball bearings could be manipulated by removing the ball bearings from the hollow tube or adding additional ball bearing inside the tube. The device could be affixed to the inner circumference of the flying disc for adjusting the weight of flying disc. Furthermore, the hollow tubing could further comprise an illumination source allowing the use of flying disc for playing in dark.

1 . A flying disk with improved flying characteristics comprising:
 a. a saucer shape disc having a rim located around a perimeter of said saucer shape disc, said rim is curved downwardly;   b. a hollow tubing encircled around an inner circumference of said flying disc; and   c. a plurality of ball bearing encompassed inside said hollow tubing, said plurality of ball bearing having a diameter less than a lumen diameter of said hollow tubing permitting free rolling of said plurality of ball bearing inside said hollow tubing.   
     
     
         2 . The flying disc of  claim 1 , wherein the opposite ends of said hollow tubing are removably coupled using a cylindrical sleeve forming a continuous hollow ring. 
     
     
         3 . The flying disc of  claim 1 , wherein said flying disc is produced from plastic material. 
     
     
         4 . The flying disc of  claim 1 , wherein said hollow tubing further comprise a lubricating agent. 
     
     
         5 . The flying disc of  claim 1 , wherein said hollow tubing further comprise a means for illumination. 
     
     
         6 . The flying disc of  claim 1 , wherein said hollow tubing is affixed to said rim using an adhesive. 
     
     
         7 . The flying disc of  claim 1 , wherein said hollow tubing is produced from a flexible material. 
     
     
         8 . The flying disc of  claim 1 , wherein additional ball bearings could be added into said hollow tubing or a portion of said plurality of ball bearing could be withdrawn permitting adjusting the weight of said flying disc. 
     
     
         9 . The flying disc of  claim 1 , wherein said plurality of ball bearing is made of steel material. 
     
     
         10 . A method of adjusting a weight of a flying disc for improving flying characteristics of said flying disc, said method comprising the step of providing a hollow tubing comprising a plurality of ball bearings, affixing said hollow tubing around an inner circumference of said flying disc such that said plurality of ball bearings could freely roll inside said hollow tubing, inserting additional ball bearings into said hollow tube to increase the weight of said flying disc, removing a portion of said plurality of ball bearing of decreasing the weight of said flying disc. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein said method further comprise a step of providing a cylindrical sleeve for removably coupling opposite ends of said hollow tubing affixed around said inner circumference of said flying disc, said cylindrical sleeve adapted to frictionally overlap the opposite ends of said hollow tubing, said cylindrical sleeve permitting removal said portion of plurality of ball bearing or inserting said additional ball bearings. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein said method further comprises a step of adding a means for illumination to said hollow tubing. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein said step of affixing said hollow tubing around said inner circumference of the flying disc comprises the use of an adhesive. 
     
     
         14 . A device for improving the flying characteristics of a flying disc, said device comprising
 a. a hollow tubing of a length such that said tubing can almost completely encircle around an inner circumference of said flying disc;   b. a plurality of ball bearing encompassed inside said hollow tubing, said ball bearing having a diameter less than a lumen diameter of said hollow tubing permitting free rolling of said plurality of ball bearing inside said hollow tubing;   c. a connecting means for removably coupling opposite ends of said hollow tube forming a continuous hollow ring, said connecting means permitting removal of a portion of said plurality of ball bearing from said hollow tubing and adding additional ball bearing into said hollow tubing; and   said device configured to couple along said inner circumference of said flying disc.   
     
     
         15 . The device of  claim 14 , wherein said device further comprise a means for illumination. 
     
     
         16 . The device of  claim 14 , wherein said hollow tubing further comprising a lubrication means. 
     
     
         17 . The device of  claim 14 , wherein said device is coupled to said inner circumference of said flying disc using an adhesive.
