The figures studied in this paper are special convex bodies in Euclidean three-dimensional space which we shall call generalized convex bodies of revolution (GCBR). Such a set is obtained by the following procedure. Let K1 be a convex body of revolution and let x, y, z denote Cartesian coordinates in a system for which the z-axis is the axis of K1.
