Abstract: A method and an apparatus for preparing food. In one example the method comprises the steps of: providing a cooking pan; filing the cooking pan with a food item; wherein the food item is at least partially liquid; placing the pan in thermal connection to a heat source; thermally connecting a temperature sensor to the cooking pan at the temperature sensing location; heating the food in the pan via a heat source having a first thermal output until the food reaches the boiling point; electronically detecting the temperature via the temperature sensor as the food is heated; detecting the temperature as the food item boils, resulting in a phase change and corresponding drop in temperature; and reducing the thermal output of the heat source to a second thermal output.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to the field of cooking ovens for the preparation of foodstuffs in an enclosed environment including a visual flame along with a rotating cooking plate upon which foodstuffs are placed and are transported through various cooking regions before being removed from the cooking oven for consumption.

Abstract: An oven debris collection system configured to be mounted to an oven wherein the debris collection system provides a shelf that food items may be placed on as they are placed in the oven or removed therefrom. The oven debris collection system having a perforated shelf surface, and at least one removable debris tray there below to catch and retain the debris.

Abstract: A ground check system for checking a ground conductor of a power supply comprising at least one line conductor comprises a pulse generator and a compare circuit. The pulse generator applies a test signal to a test circuit formed at least in part by the ground conductor and the at least one line conductor when an AC voltage on the at least one line conductor is approximately zero volts. The compare circuit compares the test signal passing through the test circuit with at least one test criteria indicative of an unacceptable ground.

Abstract: An oven having a central cooking chamber defined in part by a housing and in visual communication with a flame-producing element. The cooking chamber has a door with a transparent portion providing visual inspection of the cooking chamber and a view of the flame produced by the flame producing element. The cooking chamber has a heat source to provide heat to the cooking chamber.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to the field of electrolysis devices. A modular electrolysis unit is specifically disclosed comprising a plurality of interconnecting frames which may have an ion-permeable membrane, or a passive electrode attached and sealed thereto. A frame composing a manifold is also disclosed, in one form with the same attachment system as adjacent membrane frames, passive electrode frames, and endplates to as to allow modular assembly of the overall device.

Abstract: An electrolyte electrolyzer adapted to create hydrogen and oxygen from electrolyte fluid at or near atmospheric pressure. The electrolyzer is comprised in a preferred form of a plurality of cells which collectively create oxygen and hydrogen chambers separated by an ion permeable membrane. The electrolyzer is further defined by a passive electrode that is electrically interposed between a charged anode and cathode. The chambers defined by the cells are in communication with oxygen and hydrogen supply lines to transfer the hydrogen gas from the unit.

Abstract: A door control mechanism which is attached near the hinge region of a door to bias the door to a closed orientation, and after a prescribed location, bias the door toward an open location to a sufficient degree such that the door is noticeably open. The door control mechanism in one form may have a cam extension that engages a spring member to supply stored energy to and from the spring member to bias the door closed and to bias the door open after a prescribed amount of rotation.

Abstract: A vertical rotisserie open flame oven having a central flame post dispersing aesthetically pleasing flames and a secondary heater positioned outside the path of rotation of the food items. The oven has a central chamber area where the heat transfer to the food items is executed in a desirable manner to properly cook the food items without burning the surface thereof.
