20140348987 | LOW-PRESSURE COOKING METHOD AND COOKWARE VESSEL ADAPTED FOR THE SAME - Food stuffs are cooked at precise temperatures, which are optionally below 100° C., in a vessel that is evacuated to exclude air, in which low pressure steam replaces the air. When a sufficient quantity of air is excluded and replaced with water vapor, the temperature of vapor is accurately measured inside the vessel below the lid to control the temperatures within about 1° C. Air is preferably excluded via a controlled heated process for a relatively short period of time at high temperature to generate steam, the temperature is lowered to condense water vapor upon which the lid will sealingly engage the rim of the vessel, forming a partial vacuum in the cooking vessel. | 11-27-2014 |
20130306646 | Nested Cookware Set - A set of cooking vessels includes 2 or more fluid containing vessels that nest within each other for compact storage. Side gripping handles on opposing sides of the vessel also and asked with each other, as the larger vessel has cite handles with a laterally extending cavity that accommodates the contour of the smaller vessel handles which are mere extension of the rim thereof. The vessel set may also accommodate a sieve or strainer that nest within the smaller vessel, as well as a third nestable vessel that can optionally be used as a lid to cover the larger vessel during cooking. | 11-21-2013 |
20130161336 | Laminated Cookware Having Microscopic And Macroscopic Clad Constructions - An article of cookware has a laminated construction in which at least one core macroscopic layer, which be of a laminate or clad construction is surrounded by a covering macroscopic layer that extends over the inner and outer surface of the cookware body, including the rim where the inner and outer surface meet. This covering layer is in turn covered or surround by one or more thin film layers or microscopic thickness. | 06-27-2013 |
20130161335 | Cookware Article with a Hollow Handle - An article of cookware has a hollow outward extending handle that is subdivided into a flange, a tubular or hollow grip portion and a terminal portion that seals the grip portion. The terminal portion is also hollow, but has a downward facing aperture to facilitate storage in a vertical position. | 06-27-2013 |
20130115157 | CALCINING CHAMBER AND PROCESS - Solid materials capable of producing toxic and/or corrosive gases by thermal decomposition are heated in a stirred in a sealable crucible. The stirring rod is supported on a downward extending shaft using a combination of a lip seal or other mechanical seal and a ferro-fluidic seal or rotary feed through. The lip seal region is evacuated to reduce the chance that the small upward flow of corrosive gas will detrimentally react with components of the ferro-fluid. In a process for calcining sodium fluorosilicate to product silicon tetra-fluoride gas, the lip seal and ferro-fluidic seal regions are purged and/or blanked to prevent the absorption of water during an initial drying phase. A preferred embodiment of the process of synthesis of a high purity corrosive gas generated by decomposition of a precursor solid at high temperature deploys a dry vacuum pump and a compressor in series so that the corrosive gas is pressurized as it fills storage containers. Accordingly, the reaction of water with silicon tetra-fluoride to produce corrosive hydrogen fluoride gas is prevented. | 05-09-2013 |
20130098920 | Nestable Cookware Assemblies - A nested cookware assembly deploys at least one cookware vessel having a pair of opposing handles, each handle disposed proximate to the rim of the cookware vessel and being adapted with a stair like upper surface to receive in a mating orientation a complementary stair like lower surface on the opposing handles of either a similar cookware vessel or a lid particularly fitted to the lid of a cookware vessel. | 04-25-2013 |
20130087470 | Wine Bag - A bag for transporting one or more wine bottles has a detachable strap for secure attachment to a car seatbelt to prevent tipping over of the bag during transport. Further, the bag preferably has two or more elastic sides that conform to the bottle(s) shape to prevent movement within the bag, which along with other sides may provide cushioning and thermal insulation. | 04-11-2013 |
20110139795 | Insulated Cooking Vessel - A dual wall cooking vessel has an inner cooking portion or shell with a thermally conductive outer cladding that terminates prior to the interior of the rim of the cooking vessel. The construction provides uniform temperature during the cooking process, yet minimizes heat loss after cooking. | 06-16-2011 |
20110056957 | Combination Multiple Vessel Cookware - A cookware set has an inner and outer vessel and a lid that sealingly covers the outer vessel. The inner vessel is shorter than the outer vessel and nests therein at the rim with a passage for steam generated by simmering water in the outer vessel. The steam enters the passage to cook, steam or warm food held in the inner vessel. The combination is particularly suitable for cooking rice. | 03-10-2011 |
20110056956 | Anodized Clad Copper Cookware - An article of cookware has a copper core and is surrounded by relatively thinner outer aluminum layers. The outer aluminum layers are preferably anodized to provide a relatively inert hard and scratch resistant durable finish. This anodized finish also readily accepts non-stick finishes. | 03-10-2011 |
20100247273 | Cookware with Tarnish Protected Exterior - An article of cookware in the form of a cooking vessel exposes only a portion of a copper inner layer on the upper portion of the exterior sidewall. The layer does not change color or tarnish as it sufficiently distal from the bottom of the cooking vessel that it is not subject to direct heat and oxidation during normal use. The unique bright color of the native copper is further protected from tarnish caused by fingerprint by a protective coating that can withstand moderate heating. | 09-30-2010 |
