Provided is an article of cookware and a method of making same. The cookware is made from a bonded, multi-layer composite comprising a core construction having a central core disc of a high heat conductive material and an outer ring-shaped core disc surrounding and spaced from the central core disc by a gap to minimize thermal conduction from the central core disc to the outer ring-shaped core disc.

A compact apparatus for automatically making a plurality of flat edibles includes a storage and dispensing unit that makes it unnecessary for a user to pre-measure ingredients. The apparatus also includes a mixing and kneading unit for making dough of optimal consistency. The mixing and kneading unit may be configured to prepare dough. The dough may be prepared by mixing and kneading the ingredients dispensed by the dispensers. The dough prepared may be transferred onto a lower platen from a transfer base by a transfer sweeper. The dough may be flattened in a platen unit. An upper platen and the lower platen of the platen unit may be heated to a pre-programmed temperature for cooking the flat edible. The temperature may also be manually set by the user based on user's preference. The flat may be cooked (e.g., heated, roasted and/or puffed) by the platen unit.

Techniques for designing and creating energy efficient cookware are provided. In accordance with the techniques cookware can include a cookware base having a cooking surface and heating surface. The heating surface can have a pattern of fins forming heat exchange channels. The fins can effectively increase surface area and the channels can guide thermal energy to the perimeter of the cookware base while the fins absorb the thermal energy. The channel fins can improve energy transfer while providing even distribution throughout the cooking surface. The use of fins can also improve the mechanical strength to the cookware. Methods of making the energy efficient cookware are provided. A piece of cookware with a thick base can be provided by casting and by bonding a metal plate to the cookware body. Within the base, heat exchange channels are created by manufacturing processes such as casting or cutting to improve heat transfer.

A passive heater including a carriage actuatable to move along a cooking surface and a cover. In one exemplary embodiment, the carriage may be positioned on a guide bar to direct movement of the carriage along the cooking surface. The cover may be connected to the carriage and positionable near the cooking surface. Advantageously, positioning the cover near the cooking surface provides for the retention of nearby heat. Thus, the top surface of a food item cooking on the cooking surface may be heated by placing the cover over the food item. In another exemplary embodiment, the cover has a lifted position and a lowered position. By moving the cover from the lifted position to the lowered position, the cover may contact the cooking surface to surround food cooking thereon. In another exemplary embodiment, the lowered positioned may be spaced upwardly from the cooking surface, allowing the cover to cap food thereon.

An article of cookware is assembled by the rivet attachment of a handle. The rivets are simultaneously attached to both the cookware vessel and the handle. The co-aligned holes for receiving the rivet in the wall of the cooking vessel and the handle flange are bevel such that exterior of the rivet is relatively flush with the interior of the cookware article and the exterior of the handle flange. Deformation of the rivet head also deforms the beveled edges of the through hole in the cookware article, locking it with the corresponding portion of the handle flange through hole.

A modular cooking apparatus (100). Apparatus (100) comprises a container (102) having an open top and a sidewall for holding and cooking food, a lid (104) for closing the open top of container (102), a heating tube (116) fixedly installed on the bottom of container (102) for heating food, a universal base (112) disposed underneath container (102) for supporting container (102), an adapting member (110) fixedly installed on the bottom of container (102) for adapting container (102) to removably stand in position on universal base (112), and a thermostat (122) installed on universal base (112) and adapted to detect and control the temperature of the bottom of container (102).
摘要:
A cookware safety lock device for installation on a stovetop, wherein a heat-resistant base is secured to the stovetop with height-adjustable, pivotable arms extending therefrom, wherein the heat-resistant movable arms accommodate virtually any size pot or pan by locking into position thereabout, and wherein handle ports are defined therein for directing and retaining cookpot handles in a selected position, thereby preventing unintentional and/or unauthorized access thereto.
摘要:
A container includes a body and a heat concentration assembly securely formed on the bottom face of the body. The heat concentration assembly is composed of multiple protrusions formed on the bottom face of the body. The protrusions on the bottom face of the body absorb heat from a heating device and deliver the absorbed heat directly to the bottom face of the body to reduce heating time.

Devices, systems and methods for operating a deep fat fryer are shown and described. In one particular embodiment, the fryer incorporates a cooking pan, a burner, and flue wrap; the pan has a substantially flat base; the burner is positioned under the pan, and the flue wrap is adapted to receive gaseous combustion products from the burner and direct it toward the pan.
摘要:
A more efficient flat bottom pot or pan is obtained by (a) the introduction of an initial central downward depression in the bottom plate in the order of twice the plate thickness to avoid the undesirable upward bulging of the pot bottom as a result of aging, (b) providing heat transferring fins in a spiral pattern to the bottom and helical pattern to the side wall of the pot or pan for more effective heat transfer from the stove flame to the pot or pan, and to stabilize the pot with its central depression for placement on flat surfaces, and (c) providing a detachable shielding skirt around the pot to reduce the heat loss from radiation and convection.
