In an elongated, hollow stick handle for a cooking apparatus, the improvement comprising a heat shield in the form of a metal tab bent over an open end of the stick handle facing the cooking apparatus, for at least partly closing the open end of the stick handle to reduce heating of the stick handle.

The invention describes a system for fastening a handle to a kitchen container that comprises a plate-like fastening element, configured for being irremovably constrained both to a wall of the kitchen container, and to the handle. The plate-like fastening element is configured to be housed and restrained in a corresponding blind hole obtained at an end of the handle. The plate-like fastening element comprises at least one inclined hooking wing, integral with the plate and projecting below one of its surfaces. Each inclined hooking wing is configured for inserting, through elastic deformation while switching from the disassembled configuration to the assembled configuration of the fastening system, into at least one corresponding concave portion obtained on an inner surface of the blind hole towards which each inclined hooking wing projects in the assembled configuration of the fastening system.

A cookware apparatus is utilized to efficiently drain liquids from itself. The apparatus includes a body having an upper bottom section including at least one orifice, a lower bottom section, and a sidewall section affixed to the upper bottom section. Shafts affixed to the lower bottom section may be disposed within each of at least one housing mounted to a surface of the sidewall section. Handle portions affixed to at least one of the body and the at least one housing each include a trigger mechanism for actuating linear movement of the shafts. Actuation of the trigger mechanism separates the lower bottom section from the upper bottom section and the sidewall section to allow liquid to drain through the at least one orifice and out the interior volume of the body.

The present disclosure relates to an expandable cover unit including a main body, a manipulation member installed on the main body to be rotatable or moveable upward or downward, an expanding portion installed on the main body at a position adjacent to the manipulation member and provided with at least one wing member installed on the main body to be slidable in a direction away from the manipulation member such that an end portion of the wing member protrudes outward from the main body, and a wing driving unit configured to operate the wing member to move the wing member according to the manipulation member rotated or moved upward or downward by a manipulation of a user.

A vessel with a suspension system for a handle assembly are described. For example, an apparatus can include: a hollow vessel having a body which includes one or more walls extending upwardly from a base portion to form an opening in fluid communication with an interior space of the body; a handle assembly movably coupled to the body, the handle assembly configured to slide outwardly or inwardly with respect to the vessel; and a flexible suspension member coupled to the body and to the handle assembly, the suspension member configured to at least partially suspend a weight of the vessel. The suspension member can stretch in response to outward motion of the handle assembly with respect to the vessel and compress in response to inward motion of the handle assembly with respect to the vessel.

The invention discloses an electric pressure cooker cover, comprising a steel cover, an exhaust valve component and a cover handle arranged on the steel cover, characterized in that, the electric pressure cooker cover is provided with a thermometer and pressure gauge component which is embedded in the cover handle, the thermometer and pressure gauge component comprises a dial arranged on the cover handle and a probe arranged under the dial, and the probe penetrates through the steel cover to extend into the cooker. By installing the thermometer and pressure gauge, the electric pressure cooker cover enables the user to directly and conveniently observe the temperature and pressure in the pressure cooker.
