A multi-zone food holding bin has a continuous food supporting surface with multiple food holding zones. Each food holding zone is independently controllable so that different food temperatures may be maintained in adjacent food holding zones.

Disclosed is a baby bottle warmer, including a machine body, a baby bottle basket and a lifting device. The lifting device includes a rotating member, the rotating member rotates to drive the baby bottle basket to move up or down; and since the rotating member is always located on the same plane and position during rotation, a heating plate is arranged in the rotating member without affecting the function of the rotating member. Furthermore, the baby bottle warmer provided by the present disclosure has a compact and exquisite structure.

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.

An air fryer comprises a main body and a lid assembly. The lid assembly is operable to removably cover the main body. The air fryer comprises a support structure removably assembled to the lid assembly; wherein the support structure is operable to be seated on a working surface for supporting the lid assembly, thereby providing convenient placement of the lid assembly.

Radiant furniture made of a concrete mix includes one or more heating elements or hot water supplied hydronic tubing that provide comfortable radiant heat. Tabletops can be heated to a temperature that is comfortable for people seated at the table. Benches and seats can be heated to provide comfortable heated seating. Combinations can also be used together, such as a heated tabletop with heated seats. A controller senses the temperature of the furniture and the ambient temperature, then applies power to one or more heating elements in the furniture according to programmed temperature thresholds to provide comfortable radiant heat from the furniture. The controller includes a calibration mode that allows calibrating the controller to a particular heated surface. The controller further comprises a knob that determines an operating mode for the controller and allows adjusting a temperature threshold for the heated surface up or down.

An actively heated drinkware container includes a vessel with a chamber that receives and holds a volume of liquid. The drinkware container includes a heating module with a first heating element operable to heat one portion of the chamber and a second heating element operable to heat another portion of the chamber, the second heating element spaced from the first heating element. Operation of the first and second heating elements generates a circulation current in the volume of liquid in the chamber that mixes the liquid and diffuses a temperature of the liquid to thereby reduce temperature stratification of the liquid in the chamber and so that a temperature of the liquid throughout the volume of liquid in the chamber is approximately uniform.

A hot food holding station is a device that can keep food warm, especially food that has been deep fried or cooked, thereby providing consumers convenience of serving heated ready-to-eat food. The device further ensures that edibles that are being held are evenly heated across the storage unit. In order to accomplish this, the device uses a heated airflow system that includes multiple air flow passages and a multi-functional grease tray ramp. The heated airflow system includes an air blower unit, an airflow unit, a heated air chamber and a food holding compartment that are fluidly communicated with one another. Further, the device utilizes fresh air from the atmosphere for heating the food, thereby preventing recirculation of air within the system.

A portable thermal device includes a housing having a thermally conductive container accessible through an opening. Batteries are contained in the housing. A power supply circuit is in electrical communication between an electrical heater and batteries contained in the to power the electrical heater. In one aspect, an electrical heater uses metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs) in thermal contact with the thermally conductive container that are driven in a heat generating range by the power supply circuit. In another aspect, a controller: (i) identifies a thermal profile associated for preparing and maintaining a particular food in the thermal conductive container; (ii) associates the thermal profile with stored power in the one or more batteries; and (iii) communicates via a user interface a limitation on performing the thermal profile based on the stored power.
