The invention presented is a combined tea making apparatus, including teapot and tea filtering bodies; the teapot body has a body and handle, the center connection between body and handle is the first articulation attachment point; two cone projections are set horizontally opposite under the inner edge of the teapot body opening; the two curved grooves on the outside edge of the tea filtering body fit the teapot main body's cone projections. The center points of the cone projections are on the same vertical surface as the first articulation point, allowing tea pouring and filtering without touching the lid. The teapot handle of the teapot, makes it easy to operate with one hand, simplifying tea making and avoiding burn injuries caused by touching. The teapot and tea filtering bodies can both be rotated through 360°, enabling users to enjoy the tea making process, and avoiding scalding hands on the teapot.

Cookware lids are provided having a collapsible handle that is movable between a first extended configuration for use during cooking, and a second collapsed configuration with a reduced profile to enable the lids to be stored. In certain exemplary embodiments, the lids can include attachment features to allow the lids to be arranged in a stacked configuration, with the collapsible handle mated to the attachment feature on an adjacent lid.

A cooking container includes a container unit and a temperature information processor disposed on the container unit. A bottom of the container unit is a heated region to carry a heat source, and a side wall of the container unit is provided at least with a temperature-sensing element channel which is extended to a location close to a center of the heated region. A temperature-sensing element which is connected with the temperature information processor is extended deeply into a location close to the center of heated region from the temperature-sensing element channel, allowing the temperature detected to be close to the actual heated temperature of the cooking container.

A cooking appliance is provided. The cooking appliance comprises a cooker body for receiving food and a lid for covering the cooker body. The cooking appliance has a front side for facilitating cooking operations and a rear side spaced apart from the front side. The cooker body comprises at least one latch slot disposed on an inclined rear side of the cooker body. The lid comprises at least one latch bar disposed on a periphery thereof and extending outwardly therefrom. When the lid is detached from the cooker body, the latch bar is operable to be inserted into the corresponding latch slot to secure the lid at the inclined rear side of the cooker body, allowing a user to secure the lid to the latch slot without reaching a rear side of the cooker body by hand, and to retrieve the food without accidentally contacting the lid.

The present technology provides a hard-anodized pan that has a steel induction plate and a hybrid coating composition of round ceramic particles. The pan is formed of aluminum with an induction plate affixed. The aluminum is formed into the desired pan shape. The aluminum is sandblasted with beads of a particular size. The sandblasted pan is hard-anodized. The pan is coated with a hybrid coating of round ceramic particles to provide scratch-resistance and a non-stick quality. The pan is coated with a non-stick topcoat.

A device for cooking foodstuff includes a frame having an opening; and an insert removably coupled to the frame at the opening. The coupled frame and insert form a cooking plate comprising a top cooking surface for supporting foodstuff thereon and a bottom heat-receiving surface for receiving heat from a heat source. The insert comprises a first side having a generally flat surface and a second side having a corrugated surface comprising a pattern of ridges. The insert can be coupled to the frame with the first or second side facing up so that the side that is facing up forms a part of the top cooking surface. A set of cookware is also provided, which includes the frame and a plurality of such inserts, wherein the inserts differ from one another in at least one of dimension, shape, and composition.

A cooking vessel includes a molded pan made of aluminum casting alloy. The aluminum casting alloy used includes at least 94.5 mass % of aluminum and a cumulated content of between 4 and 5 mass % for the following elements: silicon, manganese, magnesium, nickel. The pan is at least partially anodized. The thickness of the anodized layer of the pan is higher than, or equal to, 25 μm.

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.
