Abstract

One is a floating platform made in the shape of a segment of a sphere (so in the shape of spherical dish,—previously in the text: “Dish”). The radius of the sphere is longer than the height of the center of gravity of the child ( 22 ). The Dish ( 10 ) is equipped with a round rim ( 12 ) and a flexible bellow ( 14 ) located on the edge of the Dish ( 10 ). The other is a round pool ( 20 ), mainly inflatable, for placing the Dish ( 10 ), so the pool ( 10 ) diameter is about that of the submerged Dish diameter, corresponding to the sum of the Dish's weight and the child's weight. The floating platform can be made also in the shape of a zone of a sphere (so in the shape spherical barrel,—previously in the text: “Barrel”). The Barrel's ( 16 ) radius is equal to the Dish's ( 10 ) sphere radius and the Barrel's ( 16 ) width is equal to the Dish's ( 10 ) diameter. For either the Dish ( 10 ) or the Barrel ( 16 ) the round pool ( 20 ) can be formed by placing a circular float ( 26 ) on the surface of the water, for example a swimming pool ( 24 ).

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . One is a floating platform for children made in the shape of a segment of a sphere (so in the shape of a spherical dish,—previously in the text: “Dish”), equipped with a round rim located on the edge of the said Dish. Curvature radius of the said Dish is more than the gravity distance of said child's center of gravity 
   
   
       2 . The Dish of  claim 1 , wherein said rim is equipped with a round flexible bellow, so one end of said bellow is attached to said rim edge, but another end of said bellow is free. 
   
   
       3 . The Dish of  claim 1 , wherein said rim is made in the shape of a floating, mainly inflatable, ring. 
   
   
       4 . The floating platform of  claim 1 , wherein said platform is made in the shape of a zone of a sphere (so in the shape spherical barrel,—previously in the text: “Barrel”). The said Barrel curvature radius is equal to the curvature radius of said Dish, but the said Barrel's width is equivalent to the said Dish's diameter. Both sides of the Barrel are equipped with said rims made analogously to the said Dish's rim. 
   
   
       5 . The other is a round pool, mainly inflatable, for placing said Dish (or said Barrel), so said pool diameter is about that of the submerged Dish diameter, corresponding to the sum of the Dish's weight and the child's weight. 
   
   
       6 . The round pool of  claim 5 , wherein the tangent fittings are installed for pressurized water supply: to force the water to move around. 
   
   
       7 . The round pool of  claim 5 , which is formed by placing a circular float on the surface of the water, for example swimming pool.
