Abstract
Chopsticks with a magnetic open device consists of a pair of chopsticks that each chopstick has installed a magnetic disc. The polarity of the magnetic discs of chopsticks is properly arranged to let chopsticks attract each other and to form a about 30 degrees of angle to facilitate grasping foods.
Description
THE BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

It is not easy for people other than the oriental people to use chopsticks. If chopsticks have a magnetic open device then any person can use it easily.


THE BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invented chopsticks with a magnetic open device have magnetic discs installed on chopsticks. The polarity of the magnetic disc of a pair of chopsticks is properly arranged to make chopsticks open at a certain angle to facilitate grasping foods.





THE DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS


FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a pair of chopsticks with a magnetic open device having a about 30 degrees of opening angle.



FIG. 2 is a perspective view of one chopstick of a pair of chopsticks with a magnetic open device that has installed a magnetic disc A.



FIG. 3 is a perspective view of another chopstick of a pair of chopsticks with a open device that has installed a magnetic disc B.



FIG. 4 is a perspective view of a removable magnetic disc A.



FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a removable magnetic disc B.





THE DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Referring now in detail to the drawing, numeral 10 of FIG. 1 is a pair of chopsticks with a magnetic open device opening in about 30 degrees of angle. Numeral 11 of FIGS. 1 and 2 is one chopstick of a pair of chopsticks 10 and has installed a magnetic disc A 13. Magnetic disc A 13 of FIGS. 1 and 2 has positive polarity (N) at upper end and negative polarity (S) at lower end. The direction of the polarity of magnetic disc A 13 is vertical and same to that of chopstick 11. Numeral 12 of FIGS. 1 and 3 is another chopstick of a pair of chopsticks 10 of FIG. 1 and has installed a magnetic disc B 14. Magnetic disc B 14 has negative polarity (S) at upper end and positive polarity (N) at lower end. The direction of the polarity of magnetic disc B 14 forms a about 30 degrees of angle to that of chopstick 12. Therefore when chopstick 11 of FIGS. 1 and 2 and chopstick 12 of FIGS. 1 and 3 stick together by magnetic discs A and B they form a about 30 degrees of angle because of the polarity of magnetic discs A 13 and magnetic disc B 14. Magnetic disc A and Magnetic disc B are of the same disc shape but they can be of different kind of shape such as round shape, star shape, flower shape, square shape, etc. The magnetic disc A 13 and B 14 can be built-in onto chopsticks or can be removable. Numeral 15 of FIG. 4 is a removable magnetic disc A 13. Numeral 16of FIG. 5 is a removable magnetic disc B 14. Numeral 17 of FIGS. 4 and 5 is an arched spring to catch in chopstick.

Claims
