A system of interchangeable chafing dish components may comprise a water pan comprising a holding portion configured to receive and hold at least one of liquid and ice, a food pan capable of being restably coupled to the water pan, the food pan comprising an interior portion configured to receive and hold at least one of a food and a liquid, a lid capable of being interchangeably coupled to at least one of the water pan and the food pan, and a plurality of knobs comprising a first knob and a second knob that is different from the first knob, wherein each of the first knob and the second knob is capable of being interchangeably coupled to the lid.

Certain embodiments herein relate to a chafer skirt that comprises a band that may be removably attached to the perimeter of a chafer dish frame via a securing mechanism. The chafer skirt may further comprise a plurality of plates coupled to the band via a plurality of fasteners, where each of the plurality of plates further comprise an attachment mechanism, to individually attach each of the plates to the perimeter of the chafer dish frame, such that the band wraps around the chafing dish frame and the plurality of plates extend downward from the band to form a wall around one or more sides of the chafing dish frame, thereby enclosing a heat source below the chafing dish frame.

A solid-fuel grilling device comprises a direct-current power source. A direct-current sensor is in communication with the direct-current power source. The direct-current sensor is configured to gather power characteristic data in relation to the direct-current power source. A solid-fuel grilling component is in communication with the direct-power source. The direct-power source provides power to the solid-fuel grilling component. A processor, in communication with the direct-current sensor, is configured to analyze the power characteristic data and determine operational health of solid-fuel grill components.

The present invention relates to a more efficient chafing dish basin or Bain Marie for the hotel/catering and hospitality industry, that has a first exterior basin with a heating element, a second basin comprising an insulating base, one or more heat conductive layers and a third food basin. The first exterior basin has a heating element that extends through the insulation base, and heat conductive layer(s) to contact the bottom of the food basin. The heating element can be heated by naked flames or electrically. Sufficient heat is transferred to the food basin to obviate the need for water or allows for significantly less water to be used, increasing the safety profile of these chafing dishes.

The present invention is a candle warming image display lamp (CWIDL) for use in displaying user selectable images while providing light such as to light a room brightly or as a night light, while also warming a preferably spill resistant wickless scented candle, without spilling hot molten candle wax.

A chafing dish and frame assembly including a lower frame section for supporting a disposable food tray for holding food, an upper frame section pivotally attached to the lower frame section; a disposable food cover supported by the upper frame section; and a pivot hinge that pivotally connects the upper frame section to the lower frame section. The pivot hinge allows the disposable food cover to be pivoted up to ninety degrees relative to the disposable food tray from a closed position, wherein the disposable food cover rests on top of the disposable food tray, to an open position wherein the disposable food cover is pivoted upwardly so that the food in the disposable food tray may be accessed.

A chafer device is provided to offer protection against wind, helping keep sterno burners from being extinguished so that food can be kept warm. The present invention provides a chafer device that comprises a skirt member and an attachment member. The skirt member is removably attached to a top perimeter of a chafing dish frame via the attachment member. The skirt member wraps around the chafing dish frame and extends downward from the top perimeter of the chafing dish frame to form a wall around the chafing dish frame, thereby enclosing a heat source below the chafing dish frame.
