Skull Shaver v. Ideavillage: Federal Circuit affirms, per Rule 36, the district court's (entirely correct) ruling that the accused Ideavillage product does not infringe the asserted design patent:
Remember, a design patent protects the actual shape and/or surface design that is shown in the drawings, *not* the larger design or product concept.
