  • Publication number: 20130167778
    Abstract: A flying disc for canines featuring a non-reflective, anti-glare surface that eliminates the possibility of misses caused by the reflection of sunlight from the glossy surface of a typical flying disc (sunflash), thereby allowing said disc to be more consistently caught by dogs. The anti-glare surface of the disc is obtained by incorporating into the surface, of an injection mold, a special frosted texture that is transferred to each disc produced in the mold. The frosted texture must contain enough fine detail to eliminate glare yet be non-abrasive in nature so as not to cause undue wear to canine teeth. The frosted surface texture may also be applied by processes including, but not limited to, in-mold decorating, decal, water-born graphic transfer, heat transfer, painting, acid bath, or other similar process.

  • Patent number: 6887119
    Abstract: A flying disc has a smaller diameter and lower profile which allow it to be more easily caught by dogs, children, and other less experienced players. The disc has an increased thickness and weight at the rim enabling the disc to travel greater distances. The disc has an increased thickness along a flight plate and along a transition area which helps deter puncture and other breakage due to aggressive canine catches. The disc has gripping surfaces positioned along an upper surface and on the underside of the disc which help a person retain better control of the disc while it is being thrown or caught. The gripping surfaces are segmented, staggered, uni-directional, and present a low profile. These gripping surfaces help prevent the accumulation of foreign matter that can render it difficult to grip or catch the disc and which can harm a dog's teeth when catching the disc.
