Abstract

The lenticular throwing disc for aquatic sports is made of a single lighter-than-water material. The ratio of its diameter to thickness in the region of the axis is 10 : 1. Used as a sports article or toy, this disk has considerably enhanced acrodynamic characteristics as well as improved floatability and gliding behaviour.

Description

Diskusartige, linsenförmige Wurfscheibe für Wassersport Disc-like, lenticular disc for water sports
Die Erfindung betrifft eine diskusartige, linsenförmige Wurfscheibe für Wassersport, die aus einem einheitlichen Material besteht, das leichter als Wasser ist.The invention relates to a disc-like, lenticular throwing disc for water sports, which consists of a uniform material that is lighter than water.
Sine derartige Wurfscheibe ist beispielsweise in der FR-PS 1,021.303 beschrieben. Dieser Druckschrift sind keine näheren Angaben bezüglich der Linsenform zu entnehmen.Such a throwing disc is described for example in FR-PS 1,021,303. No further details regarding the lens shape can be found in this publication.
Die Form der Linse ist jedoch besonders wichtig. Falls die Dicke der linsenförmigen Wurfscheibe zu groß ist im Verhältnis zum Durchmesser, wird die Scheibe schwerfällig und sind keine besonderen Geschwindigkeiten zu erzielen. Eine zu dünne Scheibe hingegen wird keinen ruhigen Flug erreichen und vor dem Aufprall am Wasser flattern und beim Gleiten auf dem Wasser schaukeln.However, the shape of the lens is particularly important. If the thickness of the lenticular spreading disc is too large in relation to the diameter, the disc becomes cumbersome and no particular speeds can be achieved. On the other hand, a pane that is too thin will not achieve a smooth flight and will flutter before the impact on the water and rock while sliding on the water.
Diese Nachteile einer Wurfscheibe werden erfindungsgemäß dadurch beseitigt, daß das Verhältnis von ihrem Durchmesser zu ihrer Dicke im Bereich ihrer Achse 10:1 beträgt.According to the invention, these disadvantages of a throwing disc are eliminated in that the ratio of its diameter to its thickness in the region of its axis is 10: 1.
Hiedurch wird ein besserer zielgerichteter Flug der rotie - renden Scheibe und ein länger andauerndes gleichmäßiges Glei - ten derselben an der Wasseroberfläche ersielt.In this way, a better targeted flight of the rotating disk and a longer continuous smooth gliding on the water surface are obtained.
Die erfindungsgemäße Wurfscheibe wird nun anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert. In dieser ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel derselben dargestellt:The throwing disc according to the invention will now be explained in more detail with reference to the drawing. An embodiment of the same is shown in this:
Figuren 1 und 2 zeigen die erfindungsgemäße Wurfscheibe in Auf- und Grundriß. In Fig. 3 ist der Querschnitt der Wurf - scheibe abgebildet. Fig. 4 zeigt zwei Spieler beim Spiel mit der Wurfscheibe.Figures 1 and 2 show the spreading disc according to the invention in elevation and plan. The cross section of the throwing disc is shown in FIG. 3. Fig. 4 shows two players playing with the throwing disc.
Die erfindungsgemäße Scheibe weist einen Durchmesser --a-- und im Bereich ihrer Achse eine Dicke --b-- auf, wobei der Durchmesser --a-- zehnmal so groß ist wie die Dicke --b-- Wie aus Fig. 3 hervorgeht, besteht die Wurfscheibe aus einem einheitlichen Material, das leichter als Wasser und daher schwimmfähig ist.The disk according to the invention has a diameter --a-- and a thickness --b-- in the region of its axis, the diameter --a-- being ten times the thickness --b-- as in FIG. 3 emerges, the spreading disc is made of a uniform material that is lighter than water and therefore buoyant.
In Fig. 4 sind zwei Spieler --A-- und --B-- dargestellt, die mit einer erfindungsgemäßen Wurfscheibe im Wasser spielen. Diese Scheibe wird beispielsweise von einem Spieler --A-- mit einem Ruck aus dem Handgelenk in Richtung auf einen Spie ler --B-- bewegt. Dabei nimmt der Spieler --A-- die Scheibe so in die Hand, daß sie durch rasches Ausstrecken des Armes ver bunden mit ruckartiger Bewegung aus dem Handgelenk Antriebs kraft in der gewünschten Wurfrichtung und Drehmoment erhält.In Fig. 4 two players --A-- and --B-- are shown, who play with a throwing disc according to the invention in the water. This disc is moved, for example, by a player --A-- with a jerk from his wrist towards a player --B--. The player --A-- takes the disc in his hand in such a way that by swiftly extending his arm connected with jerky movement from the wrist, he receives drive force in the desired throwing direction and torque.
Der Yerlauf der Flug- und Gleitrichtung der erfindungsge maßen Wurfscheibe hängt von Geschicklichkeit und Zraft des Spielers --A-- ab.The course of the flight and glide direction of the throwing disc according to the invention depends on the skill and strength of the player --A--.
Durch die besondere Formgebung der Linse ist es durchaus möglich, daß sie sich nach der ersten Wasserberührung mehr - mals von der Oberfläche des Wassers abhebt, wodurch das be - kannte Springen der Linse am Wasser erzielt wird. Due to the special shape of the lens, it is quite possible that after the first contact with water it lifts off the surface of the water several times, which results in the known jumping of the lens on the water.
