used to structures

Confirmed?

It's missing the usual use of the verb 'use'.
"This knife is used to cut meat."

So I can use your point when teaching.

 

[Roman55]

I am not a teacher.

Or, "This is the knife I used to use to cut meat."

Another example:

A butcher is used to cutting meat; a knife is used to cut meat.

Yes. I think the reason it isn't on that diagram is that is not really an idiomatic "used to" structure. It's the verb "used" following by a prepositional phrase beginning with "to". But if you're teaching "used to", you might as well point it out to avoid confusion.
