Publication number: 20220071431Abstract: A juicer includes a container, a crank, a strainer, and a reamer. The strainer includes a floor having a plurality of through-holes, and a peripheral sidewall. The container has a pair of spouts, each configured to selectively support a crank support formed in the strainer. The reamer is supported above the strainer and coupled to the crank for rotation by the crank so that juice expressed from a fruit will flow down the reamer to the strainer, with pulp being captured by the strainer while juice flows through the through-holes provided in the strainer and into the container.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 7, 2021Publication date: March 10, 2022Applicant: Progressive International CorporationInventors: Joseph Kent, Sascha Kaposi, Geoff Woo

Publication number: 20220071432Abstract: A juicer includes a container with a spout and a central support pillar extending upwardly from a floor of the container. A strainer having a handle and a reamer is configured to be removably supported by the container and the central pillar. The strainer is mounted for rotation by grasping the handle and rotating the strainer with respect to the container so that juice expressed from a fruit will flow down the reamer to the strainer, with pulp being captured by the strainer while juice flows through the through-holes provided in the strainer and into the container.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 7, 2021Publication date: March 10, 2022Applicant: Progressive International CorporationInventors: Joseph Kent, Sascha Kaposi, Geoff Woo

Publication number: 20220048683Abstract: A container with a terracotta lid includes a container having a attached to the container and movable between an open position allowing access to the container interior space and a closed position enclosing the container interior space, with a lid opening arranged to allow air to travel from the container interior space through the lid opening when the lid is in the closed position. An access panel allows access to the container interior space through the lid opening. A moisture-retaining insert such as a terracotta material is removably retained between the lid and the access panel when the access panel is in the closed position.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 12, 2021Publication date: February 17, 2022Applicant: Progressive International CorporationInventor: Justin Bagley

Patent number: 11122936Abstract: A hand-crank operated food processor includes a container with a removeable lid. The lid incorporates a number of gears that are operable by the hand crank to cause a drive shaft to spin, imparting a rotational force to a food processing implement such as a blade or a paddle carried on the drive shaft. The crank can be inserted into any one of a plurality of attachment points such that rotation of the crank handle in a selected attachment point will rotate the gears, and therefore the drive shaft, at a different rotational speed as compared to the rotational speed achieved at a different one of the plurality of attachment points at the same input speed from the crank.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2019Date of Patent: September 21, 2021Assignee: Progressive International CorporationInventor: Joseph Kent

Patent number: 11109715Abstract: A manual food processor includes a container with a removeable lid. The container includes a plurality of container undulations spaced along an upper portion of the container to form a seat. The lid is removably attachable to the container to enclose the interior space, and includes a food processing tool carried on a drive shaft. The lid further has a plurality of lid undulations which are complementary to and engageable with the plurality of container undulations, preventing the lid from rotating with respect to the container, and allowing removal of the lid without rotation of the lid.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2019Date of Patent: September 7, 2021Assignee: Progressive International CorporationInventor: Joseph Kent

Patent number: 11112290Abstract: A measuring cup or spoon includes a handle having a distal end and a proximal end, with a bowl positioned at the distal end of the handle, the bowl forming an interior space and terminating in an upper rim, the upper rim defining a plane and having a first side and a diametrically opposite second side. A wiper is attached to the handle by an arm, and is biased toward a first position at the first side of the upper rim, the wiper being selectively movable upon application of a force by a user to a second position at the second side of the rim, such that when the wiper is moved from the first position to the second position the wiper scrapes over the upper rim.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 2020Date of Patent: September 7, 2021Assignee: Progressive International CorporationInventor: Joseph Kent

Patent number: 10906199Abstract: An onion chopper includes a container having a bottom and a plurality of sidewalls extending upwardly and terminating in a rim. A lid is attached to the container at a pivot location for movement between a closed position adjacent the rim and an open position pivoted away from the rim. A tray is removably supported atop the container, and defines a central opening positioned between a forward end and a rearward end. A spiralizer insert is removably attached to the tray within the central opening, the spiralizer insert having a central spindle and a blade extending radially outward from the central spindle.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2019Date of Patent: February 2, 2021Assignee: Progressive International CorporationInventor: Justin Bagley

Patent number: 10888190Abstract: A peeler is formed with a tubular main body having a first open end, an opposing second open end, and a hollow interior extending from the first open end to the second open end. The tubular main body is formed from a first flexible material allowing the tubular main body to deform under pressure by a use. A pick is attached to the first open end and extends away from the second open end, the pick being formed from a second material, the second material being different from the first material and further being relatively more rigid than the first material.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2017Date of Patent: January 12, 2021Assignee: Progressive International CorporationInventor: Lawrence Michael Hauser
