This article is a version of our “Training Chopsticks” design patent as issued by the USPTO, converted to a web-friendly view, for wider dissemination. The issued patent is found as US D933,430 S at USPTO (USD933430S). The specification and accompanying drawings are now in the public domain. And we can now re-upload them to our website without repercussions.

This design patent follows from our utility application on the same, Training Chopsticks – US20210196065A1. This is what we call “model T” training chopsticks, and it is covered in 3D training chopstick models. This design patent documents a 3D-printable model that you can freely print yourselves. See for instance, Model T: Training Marcosticks. Training chopsticks teach learners to not only hold chopsticks with the Standard Grip pose, but also to roll the top chopstick with planetary gear finger motions. These training chopsticks in turns gave birth to our third utility patent application on chopstick buddies: Chopstick Buddies – US2021282579A1.

As we stated in our mission page, we want everyone to be able to print these and even sell them without royalty fees. The patent disclosure establishes prior arts that preempt anyone from claiming these inventions, so no one can stop enthusiasts from freely reproducing these chopstick training tools. With the grant from USPTO, we can now enforce our Mark-and-Go license where we simply ask that folks attribute produced training tools to marcosticks.org.

This application claims the benefit of my U.S. patent application entitled “Training Chopsticks”, assigned Ser. No. 16/731,037, filed Dec. 31, 2019, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
