Throwing disc

The invention is directed to a throwing disc which is used as a game and sports device and has an approximately plate-shaped one Shape.

Such clay targets are conventionally made of relatively hard plastic with a relatively high specific weight. They are as play- and sports equipment extremely popular, depending on the skill of the thrower or catcher Realize very different trajectories and airspeeds. However, then there is if these clay targets are handled by inexperienced people or children, there is a not inconsiderable risk that the flight takes an uncontrolled course and there is consequent damage to objects or under unfavorable circumstances it can even result in personal injury.

Proceeding from this, the invention is based on the object such a throwing disc while maintaining the typical flight characteristics of conventional such

Design throwing discs in such a way that the risk of injuries and damage is practically eliminated will.

According to the invention, this is achieved in that the throwing disc is made of foam. Preferably Polyurethane foam is used, which can be colored through as well as subsequently can be provided with a lacquer coating.

Such a foam has a relatively low specific weight «af, so that the momentum the throwing disc is low even in fast flight. In addition, such foams are soft, see above that there is an elastic rebound in the event of an impact, the energy being replaced by a momentary elastic deformation is destroyed.

To despite the use provided according to the invention It is intended to preserve the characteristic flight properties of foam that are important for playing stimulus, that the throwing disc has an approximately flat base plate, an outer edge that is drawn approximately vertically downwards and a centrally arranged, approximately cup-like bulge having. This configuration enables the trajectory to be varied depending on the throwing angle and the Twist given to the throwing disc when it is thrown. In particular, however, there are also, above all, defined straight-ahead flight characteristics achieved.

Further features, advantages and details of the invention emerge from the following description of a preferred embodiment based on the drawing.
