Abstract

An exemplary dunking tool may have a sinusoidal shape as a result of the interconnection between a handle, a stem, and a body that has feet and elastic or plastic features. The dunking tool may be designed to hold food items and dunk the same in a medium without significant risk of dropping the food item into the medium.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A dunking tool having a sinusoidal shape, comprising:
 a handle;   a stem extending downwardly from the handle; and   a body coupled to the stem, the body having a bottom and at least one foot connected to the bottom,   wherein the body is configured to elastically deform in order to hold a food item therebetween,   wherein at least two of the handle, the stem, and the body contribute to the sinusoidal shape of the dunking tool.   
     
     
         2 . The dunking tool of  claim 1 , wherein the body comprises at least one rib, at least one shoulder, at least one clutch, and at least one opening in the bottom. 
     
     
         3 . The dunking tool of  claim 2 , wherein the body comprises a plurality of ribs. 
     
     
         4 . The dunking tool of  claim 2 , wherein the body comprises a plurality of shoulders. 
     
     
         5 . The dunking tool of  claim 2 , wherein the body comprises a plurality of ribs and a plurality of shoulders. 
     
     
         6 . The dunking tool of  claim 2 , wherein the body comprises a plurality of clutches. 
     
     
         7 . The dunking tool of  claim 5 , wherein the body comprises a plurality of clutches. 
     
     
         8 . The dunking tool of  claim 2 , wherein the stem extends substantially over the food item held in the body. 
     
     
         9 . The dunking tool of  claim 2 , wherein the handle is substantially parallel to the bottom and is aligned with a center of the body. 
     
     
         10 . The dunking tool of  claim 1 , wherein the body deforms outwardly away from each other to hold the food item. 
     
     
         11 . A dunking tool having a sinusoidal creature shape, comprising:
 a handle that is shaped like a creature's head;   a stem extending downwardly from the handle that is shaped like the creature's neck; and   a body that is shaped like the creature's body, the body having a bottom and at least one foot connected to the bottom,   wherein the body is configured to elastically deform in order to hold a food item therebetween,   wherein at least two of the handle, the stem, and the body contribute to the sinusoidal shape of the dunking tool.   
     
     
         12 . The dunking tool of  claim 1 , wherein the body comprises at least one rib, at least one shoulder, at least one clutch, and at least one opening in the bottom. 
     
     
         13 . The dunking tool of  claim 2 , wherein the body comprises a plurality of ribs. 
     
     
         14 . The dunking tool of  claim 2 , wherein the body comprises a plurality of shoulders. 
     
     
         15 . The dunking tool of  claim 2 , wherein the body comprises a plurality of ribs and a plurality of shoulders. 
     
     
         16 . The dunking tool of  claim 2 , wherein the body comprises a plurality of clutches. 
     
     
         17 . The dunking tool of  claim 5 , wherein the body comprises a plurality of clutches. 
     
     
         18 . The dunking tool of  claim 2 , wherein the stem extends substantially over the food item held in the body. 
     
     
         19 . The dunking tool of  claim 2 , wherein the handle is substantially parallel to the bottom and is aligned with a center of the body. 
     
     
         20 . The dunking tool of  claim 1 , wherein the body deforms outwardly away from each other to hold the food item.
