Abstract
Two methods or apparatuses for separating two enantiomorphs of a chiral object. First, the apparatus includes a bended channel, for which the first opening is the orthogonal projection of one enantiomorph in a certain orientation, and the second opening is a different orthogonal projection of the same orientation. At the bend, the channel surface is complementary to the three-dimensional shape of the enantiomorph, which permits one enantiomorph to pass through the second opening, but blocks the other enantiomorph. Second, the apparatus includes a single asymmetric opening that is a small orthogonal projection of the chiral object. Both enantiomorphs of the chiral object can pass through the opening by manual manipulation. By free falling, one enantiomorph will pass through while the other will be blocked. These separation apparatuses are applied to toys, puzzles, and educational tools.
