Abstract:
The present invention relates to a thermometer for measuring the temperature in foods, preferably meat dishes which thermometer (1) comprises a main element (3), a outer element (4) disposed on the latter, and a sensor (5) which extends through the outer element (4) and is intended to be inserted into food (2) in order to measure the temperature thereof, the outer element (4) being movable relative to the main element (3) and the sensor (5) With the object primarily of protecting the whole sensor (5) outside the main element (3) when the sensor is not in use, the outer element (4) is configured and arranged to conceal the sensor (5) entirely and engages the sensor movably in the main element (3) in order, in the course of movement, to expose variously long portions (5a) of the sensor (5) relative to the outer element (4) so that the exposed portions (5a) can be inserted into the food (2).
Abstract:
A filtering apparatus for separating solid particles from gases includes an inlet end-wall member, an outlet end-wall member, and a filter unit disposed therebetween. A filter element is disposed within the filter unit in surrounding relationship with a power unit for moving gas through the filter element. The filter unit includes a filter enclosure extending between the end-wall members and releasably connected therewith. The filter enclosure has open ends and sides defined by an inner wall and an outer wall, the inner and outer walls together defining a filter compartment for the filter element. The inner wall also defines an interior compartment for the power means and the outer wall forms a casing detachably connected to the end wall members. The filter compartment communicates through one of its open ends with the inlet end wall member and communicates through the other of its open ends and through the interior compartment with the outlet end wall member.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a screen for holding refuse sacks (7) open. The screen (1) is shorter than the refuse sack (7) such that open parts (7b) of the refuse sack (7) can be folded into the screen (1). The screen (1) is designed to stretch the refuse sack (7). A locking device (11) is provided to lock the open parts (7b) of the refuse sack (7) and the screen (1) to each other.
Abstract:
A device comprising a compartment attached to a container that keeps a first component, which may be moisture sensitive, from a second component, preferably a liquid, until a selected time before use. The compartment has improved manufacturability and decreased leakage.
Abstract:
A dosing device (1) for sprinkling granules (2) comprises upper elements (3) which delineate a storage space (4) for the granules, and lower elements (5) with a portion (6) which forms the bottom (6a) of the storage space and is provided with delivery apertures (7) for the granules. For rapid and even distribution of the granules (2), the delivery apertures (7) are distributed along the whole surface of the portion (6) of said lower elements (5) which forms the bottom (6a) of the storage space (4), and said lower elements comprise a dosing arrangement (8) in the form of a delivery element (9) which surrounds the delivery aperture, runs upwards in the storage space and is provided with an upper inlet aperture (10) and a delivery duct (11), and of a hoodlike element (12) which covers the delivery element, narrows upwards in the storage space, delineates between itself and the delivery element a flow duct (13) and runs to the vicinity of the bottom of the storage space, the section (4a) of the storage space which is situated radially within an imaginary downward extension of the hoodlike element being in communication with the delivery aperture so that granules in that section, upon rapid vertical and/or substantially vertical movements downwards, are guided in by the flow duct to above the inlet aperture of the delivery element in order to be able, via the inlet aperture, to fall through the delivery duct of the delivery element to the delivery aperture.
