Description

ABSTRACT:
A hoop toy related to the well-known "Hula Hoop" is constructed in the form of detachable arc segments, different numbers of which can be used by the player in fastening the entire hoop, allowing the hoop toy to be adjustable as to diameter, and further allowing complete disassembly for ease and convenience in storage and transportation. The fastening by which said arc segments are joined provide integrity and rigidity for the hoop and maintain the orientation of the entire hoop in a single geometric plane.
