According to various connecting profiles, the dining utensils can form a bracelet, necklace or an ornament.

Abstract: A loopable and wearable dining utensil comprises a rigid function portion for engaging food, a holder for holding the dining utensil, and a flexible connector for connecting the rigid function portion and the holder. One end of the rigid function portion also serves as a male linker and the opposite end has a first linking part. One end of the holder serves as a female linker for linking with the male linker, and the opposite end has a second linking part for linking with the first linking part. When the female linker is linked with the male linker, the dining utensil forms a loop, and when the second linking part is linked with the first linking part, the dining utensil forms a regular utensil. According to various connecting profiles, the multiple dining utensils can form a bracelet, necklace, belt or an ornament of handbag or hand-held mobile device.

Abstract: A food utensil has an elongate member that has a first end, a second end and a longitudinal surface extending from the first end to the second end. The first end includes a plurality of protrusions disposed circumferentially around the longitudinal surface at the first end. A pair of tongs includes at least one such elongate member, hingedly interconnected to another such elongated member. In one embodiment, the utensil is a chopstick, and preferably is provided as a pair of two such chopsticks. A method of making a food utensil includes forming an elongate member having a first end and a second end, and forming a plurality of protrusions circumferentially around a first end of the elongate member.

Abstract: A two-section chopstick with an improved structure has an upper section, a lower section, and a limiting element. The limiting element is mounted around the sidewall near the bottom end of the upper section. The limiting element has a bent fixing part going through a through hole on the sidewall near the bottom end of the upper section. The fixing part extends into an accommodating space inside the upper section. The fixing part holds a connecting section of the lower section to secure the connection between the upper section and the lower section. Alternatively, a holding section in the lower section can be inserted into the accommodating space, thereby storing the chopstick.

Abstract: A retractable chopstick includes a hollow mounting sleeve, and a shank retractably mounted in the mounting sleeve and movable relative to the mounting sleeve between a retracted position where an upper end of the shank is locked in an upper end of the mounting sleeve and a lower end of the shank is received in a lower end of the mounting sleeve and an expanded position where the shank protrudes outwardly from the mounting sleeve and the upper end of the shank is locked in the lower end of the mounting sleeve. Thus, the shank can be retracted into the mounting sleeve when not in use, so that whole volume of the retractable chopstick is reduced largely, thereby facilitating the user carrying, packaging and storing the retractable chopstick.

Abstract: A set of chopsticks having a main body with a cavity therein that, starting from the side opposite a mouthpiece of the chopsticks extends in the longitudinal direction into the chopsticks. An object, particularly an information carrier, is placed inside the cavity. The open end of the cavity is preferably closed by a stopper.

Abstract: Novelty themed stick holders for food items include an elongate holder having an external surface and opposing top and bottom portions defining an elongate receiving cavity therebetween. The cavity is configured and sized to receive a stick therein. In some embodiments, the holder tapers inwardly from a top portion to a bottom portion and defines a handle portion of a miniature baseball bat. Other themes and shapes are also described.

Abstract: A chopstick comprises an upper body having a penetrating receiving chamber; an upper inner side of the receiving chamber being formed with an annular groove; a lower end of the upper body having two through holes; a lower body having an insertion section at an upper end thereof; a wall surface of the insertion section having a receiving chamber; one end of the receiving chamber having a through hole; a ball, a spring, and a retaining block being sequentially installed in the receiving chamber; the ball being protruded into the through hole; the retaining block being retained in the receiving chamber; and the spring and ball are positioned in the receiving chamber. A clamping unit is attached to the upper body. The clamping unit has two holes for receiving a pair of chopsticks. A lower end of the lower body has a brush; and the brush has brush hairs.

Abstract: A telescopic chopstick including an upper section, a lower section and a press member. The upper section is a hollow rod formed with an upper opening and a lower opening. A locating section is formed on an inner side of the upper section. The lower section has an upper end and a lower end. The upper end has a peripheral length larger than a peripheral length of the lower end. The upper end of the lower section has a connecting section for engaging with the lower end of the upper section. The press member is fitted in the upper opening of the upper section and located by the locating section of the upper section. A leaf spring integrally extends from a bottom end of the press member. When the lower section is retracted into the upper section, the leaf spring resiliently abuts against and engages with a lateral wall of the connecting section of the lower section. The lower section can be easily taken out from the upper opening of the upper section for washing.

Abstract: A telescopic chopstick set including pair of chopsticks and a jacket for receiving the chopsticks. Each chopstick has an upper half and a lower half extendably nested in the upper half. An upper end of the upper half has an upper opening, while a lower end of the upper half has a lower opening. The lower half can be fitted into the upper half from the upper opening. A press member is fitted in the upper opening of the upper half. A pair of opposite first protuberances and a pair of opposite second protuberances are formed on inner wall face of the upper half near the upper opening. When the lower half is retracted into the upper half, the first protuberances abut against the lower half. The second protuberances serve to engage with and fix the press member with the upper half. A clip is disposed on outer side of upper section of the jacket for easy carriage of the telescopic chopstick set.

Abstract: A pan for use in connection with a trash receptacle with or without a trash bag inserted into the receptacle. The present pan has brackets formed to engage the rim of the receptacle's opening so that debris can be swept directly into the pan and ultimately deposited into the receptacle. Furthermore, the pan elevates the rim of the receptacle so that debris tends to slide toward the bottom of the receptacle. Once the trash receptacle is stood erect, the pan facilitates the moving of all debris easily and quickly into the container or bag.

Abstract: A bowl extends almost perpendicularly from a straight handle to serve as a ladle and spoon. An indentation on the edge of the bowl on each side allows a small quantity of food to be poured from the bowl on either side for pouring or tasting. A front edge of the bowl is straight across and wedge-shaped with flat top and bottom surfaces adjacent to the edge serves as a spatula and scraper. A thick portion of the handle serves as an ergonomic grip.
