The invention refers to a multifunctional tool for holding and handling hot items and products that consists of a horizontal support section that at one end comprises a vertical grip section, at the upper end of which a hook element is defined; said horizontal support section comprises on its lower face a pair of arms projecting perpendicularly downwards, the ends of which are fixed in a second reinforcing section that also defines a second gripping section that extends diagonally until it joins the lower face of the end edge of said horizontal support section; a covering layer of thermal insulating material is attached from the upper part of the hook element, passing through the vertical gripping section and to the lower face of the horizontal support section where a gripping surface is defined for the user to avoid the direct contact with the tool and thus avoid contact with hot parts, items or products that will be grasped by the tool.

An ergonomic handle and utensil holder accessory has tubular main body with a wrist rest extending from the distal end. A grip extends upward from the main body and is threadingly engaged with the main body. The handle of a pot, pan, utensil, or other object is inserted into the main body and the grip is screwed in to tightened the holder to the target object. The user grabs the grip by hand such that the user's wrist and forearm rests on the wrist rest. The holder enhances the user's grip on the target object and provides enhanced ergonomics and lifting power.

Disclosed is a substantially tubular device reversibly applicable to a knockbox bar for espresso coffee machines to cover the bar. The device is elastically deformable and is applicable to a knockbox bar by spreading a slot extending longitudinally into the device over the entire length thereof. The device protects the knockbox bar on which it is applied from both the impact against the filter holder assembly and the coffee powder ejected therefrom. The device includes, close to a first end, flaps arranged longitudinally allowing easy cleaning of the filter edge from any powder possibly compacted therein. The device further includes, close to a second end opposite the first, grooves acting as facilitated cutting lines and by virtue of which it is possible to shorten, if required, the device so as to adapt it to the length of the knockbox bar to which it is be applied.

A pot gripper comprises a first lever and a second lever joined at a fulcrum. The first lever has a first jaw extending from the fulcrum, and the second lever has a second jaw extending from the fulcrum. The first jaw and the second jaw define a clamping area for a pot when the first lever and the second lever are rotated from an open position into a closed position. The first jaw has at least one support slot, the support slot being shaped to fit to the contour of a gripping area of the pot to be held in the clamping area. The first lever has a first locking feature and the second lever has a second locking feature. The first locking feature engages with the second locking feature in the closed position so that the first lever and the second lever are locked in the closed position.

A steaming device includes a first chamber, a second chamber, and a block formed from a porous ceramic material. The first chamber comprises a surface and sidewalls extending from the surface. The second chamber comprises a cooking surface and sidewalls extending from the cooking surface and is configured to receive a foodstuff. The cooking surface defines a plurality of openings. The block is disposed between the surface of the first chamber and the cooking surface of the second chamber. The block is configured to absorb and retain water when the water is in a liquid state and to release the water as steam when heated. The steam passes into the second chamber via the plurality of openings arranged in the cooking surface to distribute the steam to the second chamber to thereby steam the foodstuff.

Devices include a base, and first and second pairs of arms extending from the base in opposite directions along a longitudinal axis of the device. Each of the first and second pairs of arms is spaced apart in a lateral direction of the device. The device further includes a first recess defined by and between the first pair of arms and a second recess defined by and between the second pair of arms to define first and second receptacles, respectively. Each recess has a perimeter exceeding one-half of a circumference of a circle. Accesses to the recesses are disposed on the longitudinal axis of the device and defined between opposing distal ends of the first and second pairs of arms. The first and second pairs of arms define, respectively, first and second sets of handles of the device.

A cooking pot support assembly includes a support rack that has a grapple portion and a support portion. The grapple portion is positionable to engage a front edge of a sink having the support portion angling downwardly into the sink. The support portion has a cooking pot positioned thereon to support the cooking pot at an angle. In this way the support portion assists with pouring liquid from the cooking pot into the sink. A support is rotatably coupled to the support rack. The support is positionable in a deployed position to extend into the sink. The support includes a stop portion extending upwardly from the support rack to inhibit the cooking pot from sliding along the support rack into the sink.
