  • the cavities having an orifice through which the marking agent may pass and be deposited onto the second object upon impact of the first object with the second object.
  • FIG. l is a perspective view of an embodiment of a discus.
  • FIG. 2 is a partial section view of the discus of FIG. 1 taken along line 2-2.
  • FIG. 3 is an exploded view of the discus of FIG. 1 .
  • FIG. 4 is an exploded view of a lower portion of a discuss with a tamper indicator.
  • FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the discuss from figure 4 in process of the tamper indicator being installed.
  • FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the discuss from figures 4 and 5 with the tamper indicator installed.

  • FIG. 1 1 is a perspective view of a tool for removing the cap 1 4.
  • FIG. 47 A first preferred embodiment is shown in figures 1 - 3 that shows a thrown object 1 0.
  • This thrown object is a substantially lenticular disc or discus 1 2 comprising one or more cavities 1 8.
  • the cavities 1 8 may alternatively be circumferential or central to the object 1 0.
  • the internal cavity provides storage for marking material that can pass from the interior of the cavity to the outside of the cavity when the thrown object comes into contact with the ground. Because the first point of contact of the thrown object with the ground is the point measured by officials, the discus 1 2 can come into contact with either the top or bottom surface or an outer edge. Because the first point of contact can be the outer edge the reservoir further extends to the outer edge of the thrown object.
  • FIG. 4 is an exploded view of a lower portion of a discuss 33 with a tamper indicator.
  • the tamper indicator is a hub 49 that fits into one side of the discuss housing 33 and is retained by a "C” that fits into a recess groove 62 in the hub 49.

Abstract

L'invention concerne des améliorations apportées à un système de marquage destiné à être utilisé avec des objets lancés dans le cadre d'une compétition tels que des disques, des poids, des marteaux et des javelots. Le système de marquage présente une cavité qui contient un agent de marquage qui est déposé automatiquement depuis la cavité sur le sol lorsque l'objet lancé heurte le sol. Le système de marquage est destiné à l'entraînement et au lancer de compétition et est un système au moyen duquel le point d'impact d'un premier objet avec un second objet peut être marqué avec justesse, précision, efficacité, de manière durable, sûre et responsable sur le second objet par un agent de marquage acquis avec le premier objet. Le mécanisme de distribution peut être mis en oeuvre avec divers objets d'impact, y compris, mais pas exclusivement, des disques, des poids, des marteaux et des javelots. Ceci peut être mis en oeuvre de multiples manières avec chaque objet d'impact, y compris, mais pas exclusivement, au centre, radialement et sur la circonférence.
