  • Patent number: 5951403
    Abstract: A hemispherically-shaped rolling toy for the amusement and exercise of children is disclosed. The invention is comprised of a hemispherically-shaped body made of a rigid material. The hemispherically-shaped body has a hollow interior which faces up to allow receipt of a child therein. The body has a rim which extends a predetermined distance outwardly, and upwardly at a predetermined angle relative to the vertical axis of the hemispherical body, forming a lip which is a deterrent to the possibility of the toy tipping over. A plurality of vertical slots horizontally encircle the body. A strap made of a strong material such as nylon is threaded through the vertical slots forming strap handles on the interior side of the device. The hollow interior is lined with a cushion made of a soft, pliant material such as foam. The cushion is covered by a liner made of an exposure-resistant material such as vinyl, the liner having an elasticized hem which secures the liner under the rim of the hemispherically-shaped body.
