Detachable coupling arrangement for connecting a handle to a utensil
A detachable coupling arrangement (1) for connecting a handle (2) to a utensil comprises a male portion (5), a female portion (4) adapted to receive the male portion (5), and a stop element (6) for preventing movement of the male portion (5) relative to the female portion (4) in an upward direction (A) A first retention element and a resiliently deformable second retention element (8) are configured to cooperate to prevent movement in a downward direction (B) when the female portion (4) is coupled to the male portion (5). The first retention element includes a retention surface and a lower surface (23). The second retention element (8) engages the lower surface (23), as the male portion (5) is received in the female portion (4) in the upward direction, and resiliently deforms so that the second retention element (8) locates over the first retention element and abuts against the retention surface.
Cookware System with Removable Handles
A cookware system, including a cookware member, with an internal region for heating food and an outer edge disposed about a perimeter of the cookware member. The outer edge including a first pair of adjacent slots extending through a thickness of the outer edge and inwardly from the perimeter; the first pair of slots defining a first notch having a top surface and a bottom surface. There is a first removable handle, including a grip member at a first end, an engagement member at a second end, and an extension member interconnecting the grip member to the engagement member. The engagement member includes a first leg, a second leg, a first crossbar, and a second crossbar; and the first crossbar is interconnected between the first leg and the second leg and the second crossbar is spaced from the first crossbar and interconnected between the first leg and the second leg.

GRILL BASKET
A grill basket including a basket portion having a bottom with sides extending upwardly and outwardly therefrom. A handle is removably engageable with one of a plurality of engagement assemblies that are provided on different sides of the basket portion. The handle is selectively engaged with different engagement assemblies in order to change the orientation in which the grill basket is able to be used. The grill basket further includes one or more removable dividers that are movable between a storage position and a use position. In the storage position the one or more dividers are located proximate one or more sides of the basket portion and an interior compartment of the basket portion is substantially the same size as when the one or more dividers are completely removed from the basket portion. In the use position, the dividers are placed to divide the interior compartment into smaller compartments.
Removable handle for cooking utensil
A removable handle for a cooking utensil is provided. The removable handle includes a proximal end including a gripping surface, a distal end including a plurality of tines, and an elongated shaft extending from the proximal end to the distal end and being bent so that the distal end including the plurality of tines are oriented at an angle that is greater than 45°.
Removable handle equipped with a movable latch
A removable handle is designed to cooperate with a cooking container having a side wall extended upwards by an outwardly-curved portion including a free end and includes a latch that can be moved between an open and a closed positions. The latch includes a locking panel designed to generate a force on the free end in the closed position, under the action of a means of pressurization, the force having a vertical component F for locking the free end against an upper supporting body. The latch has a protruding body and the handle includes a hollow body or reciprocally. In the closed position, the protruding body and the hollow body are fitted into each other to prevent the latch from recoiling when the free end generates, on the locking panel, a force having a component F1 opposite to the vertical component F with an intensity greater than a predetermined value.
Removable handle, particularly for cooking containers for food
A removable handle, particularly for cooking containers for food, includes a base portion adapted to be fixed immovably to a wall of a cooking vessel and having a coupling body; and a handle portion adapted to be detachably fixed to the base portion and including a coupling cavity to receive the coupling body of the base portion. The coupling body is insertable in the coupling cavity along a main coupling direction. A locking and unlocking lever which can be activated to lock and unlock the coupling body inside said coupling cavity is also part of the removable handle. The lever is hinged to the handle portion about an axis of rotation substantially parallel to the main coupling direction. The lever includes at least a first relief, the coupling body has at least a second relief to engage with the first relief.
HANDLE ELEMENT FOR RELEASABLE FASTENING TO A COOKING VESSEL
A handle element for releasable fastening to a cooking vessel, including a carrying body, on which a claw provided by a single-armed lever is arranged, wherein: a clamping-surface pair with a first clamping surface on the carrying body and with a second clamping surface on the claw is provided. The claw can be pivoted between an open position, in which the two clamping surfaces are spaced apart from one another, and a closed position, in which the two clamping surfaces are in close proximity to one another. A closing lever is provided on the carrying body. The closing lever is connected to the claw via a tension rod and includes a control cam, which, as a result of the closing lever being displaced from a not-in-use position into an in-use position, causes the claw to be displaced from its open position into its closed position.
REMOVABLE GRIPPING DEVICE FOR EAR-SHAPED HOLDING MEMBER OF A KITCHEN UTENSIL
The removable gripping device for an ear-shaped holding member of a kitchen utensil includes a case with a housing in the form of a slit with a height to at least partially accommodate the latter by nesting and with functional play. The case also has a latch able to occupy at least a locked position and an unlocked position in order, depending on the case, to block or free the removable gripping device on this holding member. In combination with and independently of the locking/unlocking function, at least one retaining pad extends at least partially in the slit-shaped housing so as to define, in the latter, at least one passage section adjusted to the thickness of the holding member. The pad, in its part at least extending in the housing is made from a flexible material to retract under stress.
ATTACHMENT FOR FIXING TO A COOKING UTENSIL
The invention relates to an attachment (1) for handling a cooking utensil, comprising a rigid supporting element (4) which can be fastened directly or indirectly to the cooking utensil, and at least one elastically deformable shaping area (6). In order to ensure that the cooking utensil is fastened securely whilst adapting to the hand of the respective user, the shaping area (6) is formed by a plurality of lamellas (7) which are arranged at a distance to each other.
