    摘要: The invention resides in an oven which is capable of recirculating air in a laminar pattern around food stuff supported within the oven cavity. The heating elements of the oven are disposed at the lower portion of the oven with the food stuff being supported thereabove. Air which is drawn in by an impeller at the top of the cavity is driven downwardly through a duct and redirected below the food and across heating element(s) and thereafter redirected upward in a recirculating pattern to effect uniform cooking of the food stuff located therein.

    摘要: A beverage vessel or carafe 20 includes a container 22, an upper body 24 which is secured to the container, a handle 28 which extends between the upper body 24 and the container 22, a spout 30 formed in the upper body and a lid 34 which located in an opening 32 of the upper body. A seal 52 or 52a is located between, and compressed by, the container 22 and the upper body 24 to preclude the beverage from undesirably entering a chamber 70 of the carafe 20. A rib 98 of the upper body 24 cooperates with a pocket 110 of the container 22 to secure the upper body with the container. A fastening element 142 is attached within a pocket 140 formed on an outer surface of the container 22 and includes a sleeve 148 which fits snugly within a hole 156 of an end 38 of the handle 28 and is secured in this firm assembly by a threaded fastener 164. A compliant handle cover 180 is assembled with the handle 28 to provide a firm but tactile comfort for one who uses the carafe 20.

    摘要: By providing a plurality of portals in a housing which forms a hair dryer attachment which is merely fixed to the exist portal of any conventional hair dryer, a hair dryer attachment is realized which is capable of substantially reducing the drying time required for drying the hair of any individual, while also being easily employed and comfortable. In the preferred embodiment, at least one raised, sloping panel is formed adjacent the inlet portal of the attachment with the panel sloping outwardly from the generally circular shaped inlet portal. In addition, a plurality of apertures or portals are formed in the panel for enabling ambient air to freely flow therethrough. In this way, the heated air flowing through the central portion of the attachment creates a low-pressure zone on the inside surface of the portals, drawing ambient air through the portals into the interior of the hair dryer attachment, thereby enabling the quantity of the air reaching the hair of the user is substantially increased.

    摘要: By providing a shaving system having at least one separate and independent hair trimming assembly employed in direct association with an apertured foil or mesh screen cutting assembly in a manner enabling the hair trimming assembly to be movable into a plurality of alternate positions by a single control element for being employed simultaneously with the apertured foil cutting assemblies, a unique shaving system is achieved for cutting both short hair and long hair. Furthermore, in order to accommodate the typical variety of conditions experienced by most users of an electric dry shaving system, whether the system is being employed by men or women, it has been found that the hair trimming assemblies are preferably able to be placed in at least three alternate positions quickly and easily by the simple movement of a single button or switch. In this way, the varying contours of an individual skin surface are easily accommodated and a smooth, comfortable, close shave is realized.

    摘要: A knife sharpener is disposed adjacent a second electrical appliance of a design family. In an inoperative position, the knife sharpener includes design features mimicking the remainder of the design family. When moved to an operative position, the knife sharpener makes its sharpening wheel accessible to the edges of a knife blade. An energizing switch is coordinated for actuation as the knife sharpener reaches its operational position. In a combination that uses the same electric motor to drive the knife sharpener and a second appliance, different motor speeds are produced appropriate for the two functions to be performed. A bi-directional spring loading assembly permits deflection of the sharpening wheel in opposed lateral directions from a positively controlled neutral position to maintain substantially uniform application of sharpening force on the knife edges. An articulating knife guide permits the use of a single guide slot which can be inclined on either side of the sharpening wheel. An integral detent spring ensures that the guide slot may remain in only permitted inclinations.

    摘要: A coffeemaker (30) includes a lower housing (32) and an upper housing (34). A water reservoir (44) sets atop a portion of the lower housing (32). A top cover (56) extends in cantilever from the upper housing (34). A brew basket holder (58) is mounted pivotally to the upper housing (34) and contains a brew basket (76), having a brewed-beverage outlet (88), and a filter (78). When the coffeemaker (30) is in use, the holder (58) is located beneath the top cover (56). A releasable latch unit (62) is employed to retain the holder (58) in this. As a carafe (64) is placed in the coffeemaker (30), an actuator (132) is moved by the carafe to operate a switch (130), whereafter, upon operation of a control switch by a user, the coffeemaker (30) will process through a beverage brewing cycle. When the actuator (132) moves, the outlet (88) is opened to allow the flow of the beverage to the carafe (64). The actuator (132) is formed with a belly section (134) for collecting any drops of the brewed beverage as the carafe (34) is being removed and the outlet (88) is being closed.

    摘要: A coffeemaker includes a housing and a water reservoir supported within the housing in a reservoir storage portion. A carafe is supported on a base portion of the housing. A spreader is mounted within the housing. The coffeemaker includes a hot water generator having an inlet connected to the water reservoir and an outlet connected to the spreader. The water reservoir includes a front wall having a handle extending outwardly therefrom for grasping by the user of the coffeemaker. The front wall is concave-shape to increase the space formed between the wall and confronting surface of the handle. The water reservoir is releasably latched into the storage portion of the housing.

    摘要: By providing a separate and independent hair trimmer or trimming assembly which is incorporated into a shaver system and is controllably movable directly into a variety of alternate positions for providing enhanced cutting of hair fibers, a substantially improved, close and comfortable shaving system is obtained which effectively cuts both short hair and long hair. By employing a single, multi-positionable, switch member which cooperates with a movement control system incorporated into a trimmer assembly, user control is provided for altering the position of the trimmer assembly for placing the trimmer assembly directly and any precisely desired orientation or location. In addition, in the preferred embodiment, the trimmer assembly incorporates a pair of specially constructed cutting elements formed thereon for providing enhanced cutting and/or trimming capabilities in a wide variety of alternate operations.
