No, but people tend to use the word "Adobe" to refer to pretty much anything - they could mean an Illustrator sketch but Adobe do not have their own 3D model format, nor do they produce any 3D CAD software.

That is not true. I use 3D models on Adobe all the time. Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro, not the reader.

Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader can display a 3D model within a PDF file, embedded in U3D or PRC format as per the PDF ISO standard, but those models are purely for interactive display. Adobe does NOT produce 3D CAD software and never has. There is no such thing as an "Adobe stick diagram", nor any such thing as an "Adobe" 3D model.
