Intellectual Property
PROTECTED BY
PROTECTED BY
US PATENT LAW.
The StumpHog™ has been filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office under a Provisional Patent Application — establishing an official priority date and 12 months of patent-pending protection.
Prior art research confirms no identical device exists in the patent record. The closest existing patent (US6257555B1) is an A-frame design that is fundamentally different in both form and function.
The StumpHog™ is positioned to receive full utility patent protection, giving investors and licensees a strong, defensible IP position.
