Abstract: A double action hinge unit is disclosed which comprises a first base element, a second base element and at least two connection elements. Each base element has at least two upward extensions. Each connection element is hingedly connected with an extension of the first base element and an extension of the second base element. The double action hinge unit is changeable among at least three combination states. When the double action hinge unit is in a second combination state, the at least two connection elements are arranged side by side, such that the double action hinge unit is rotatable about a rotational axis at one side into a first combination state and is also rotatable about a rotational axis at the other side into a third combination state.
Abstract: This invention relates to an apparatus for baking letters of the alphabet and/or numerals. The apparatus includes a cake pan blank foldable into a cake pan, a grid insert template and one or more space-occupying insert blanks foldable into space-occupying inserts. The grid template insert contains removable grid-defined sections which sections are selectively removable so as to leave openings in the grid template insert. The space-occupying inserts are interfitted with the openings and the grid template insert and space-occupying inserts are then placed into the cake pan so that the volume of the cake pan not occupied by the space-occupying inserts takes the shape of a letter or numeral for receiving batter.
