    The authors consider co-Minkowski planes and co-Minkowski cones over a field \(F\). Assuming that the field \(F\) has only two square classes and that \(-1\) is not a square in \(F\), they introduce a reflection structure on the cone of a co-Minkowski plane. From this situation they obtain a \(K\)-loop. If \(2\) is a square in \(F\), then this \(K\)-loop is fibered.
