If I own a patent with two claims:
Claim 1: A tool, including:
A) a handle (wood)
b) an anvil (metal) attached to an end of the handle; and
c) a light source attached to the anvil.
Claim 2: A tool, including:
A) a handle (wood)
b) a anvil (metal) attached to an end of the handle; and
c) means for illuminating an object to be struck by the anvil.
Accused Product:
Has a handle (durable plastic), a mallet (metal) instead of an anvil, with a lighter assembly (controls the flame and insures that flame doesn't touch the plastic handle) attached, and a switch (turn flame on and off).
Does the accused product infringe claim 1 and/or 2. How do you resolve?
