The profile shape of the vessel body and of handle portion is formed from a single sheet of metal to create a flat by cutting, stamping or blanking. An opening is created in the handle portion to reduce heat propagation. The shape of the pan body is formed by spinning with the flat handle portion. The handle is formed by creating three-dimensional contours in the handle portion of the blank. The neck portion has a flat section adjacent the pan body followed by sections of different curvature. One section of the neck portion has a deeply curved cross-section. That neck portion transitions to the hand grip portion which has a reduced curvature, particularly toward the unattached end of the handle. The neck portion may have a W cross sectional shape. The handle grip portion may have a U shaped cross-section for comfort.

A sheet pan that includes a baking surface with an upwardly-extending tension bow formed therein that provides structural reinforcement to the baking surface; a sidewall portion surrounding the entire baking surface and defines an interior surface of the sheet pan and an exterior surface of the sheet pan, wherein the sidewall portion further includes a structural reinforcement rib formed therein, wherein the topmost region of the sidewall portion is rolled downward and away from the baking surface to form a rim having both an outside portion that defines the outer edge of the sheet pan, and an inside portion, and wherein the inside portion of the rim abuts the sidewall portion on the exterior surface of the sheet pan, and a reinforcing wire surrounding the upper region of the sidewall portion, wherein the wire is completely enclosed by and sealed within the rim, and wherein any significant open volume between the wire and the rim has been eliminated.

Provided is a method of manufacturing an item, notably a culinary item, including a support provided with a sol-gel covering, which method involves a pressing step performed after the sol-gel covering has been applied to and pre-densified on the support.

A physical non-stick pan with a convex-concave structure, and a manufacturing method thereof are provided. The physical non-stick pan includes a pan body, where the convex-concave structure is formed on an inner surface of the pan body, the convex-concave structure comprises a convex edge protruding from the inner surface of the pan body and a recess enclosed by the convex edge, and a physical non-stick layer is at least arranged on an inner surface of the pan body in the recess. In the convex-concave structure, the convex edge protects a non-stick layer arranged in the recess, reduces a direct friction between a spatula and the non-stick layer, and prolongs a non-stick effect of the pan body.

The invention relates to a coated metal cooking rack compatible with induction healing, comprising a metal body including a heating face bearing a protective coating and a cooking face bearing an anti-adhesive coating forming a cooking surface. According to the invention, the metal body is made of two-sided aluminized ferromagnetic low-carbon steel sheet comprising a ferromagnetic low-carbon steel substrate having on each of its two faces an outer layer comprising an aluminum-based matrix, an intermediate layer comprising iron/aluminum intermetallic compounds being arranged between the ferromagnetic low-carbon steel substrate and the outer layer, and at least on the bottom of the heating face the outer layer has a thickness of less than 27 m, preferably less than 20 m, and even more preferably less than 18 m. The invention also relates to a culinary article, an electric cooking appliance and a method of obtaining a coated metal cooking rack.
