The present disclosure relates to an electric cooktop safety system. More particularly, the electric cooktop safety system pertains to safety cookware vessels having special fastening components that secure these safety cookware vessels to an electric cooktop, preventing a user from accidentally tipping or pulling off the safety cookware vessels from the electric cooktop. In one implementation, the fastening components may include a safety stem having keyed members and stem locking members disposed on a safety cooktop to secure the safety cookware vessel to the safety cooktop. In another implementation, the fastening components may include electro-magnetic fastening components to secure the safety cookware vessel to the safety cooktop.

A modular cooking apparatus is disclosed. The modular cooking apparatus includes a housing for containing a first and second interchangeable cooking modules. The first interchangeable cooking module contains a first oven, and the second interchangeable cooking module contains a second oven. A grease shield is located within the first oven. The second oven is different from the first oven. The modular cooking apparatus also includes a control panel for receiving cooking inputs, a controller for controlling the first and second interchangeable cooking modules, and a single power plug for receiving electrical power from a wall outlet.

A heater includes a body, a burner assembly, a gas tank, and a reflecting plate. The burner assembly is installed on the body. The gas tank is arranged in the body and directly below the burner assembly, and has an interface end connected to a fuel inlet end of the burner assembly via a valve. The reflecting plate is installed in the body and located between the burner assembly and the gas tank. The reflecting plate prevents heat coming from a bottom portion of a burner of the burner assembly from being radiated directly to the interface end of the gas tank and allows heat coming from around the burner to be radiated to a periphery of the interface end of the gas tank and heat the gas tank.
