Abstract: A rechargeable thermometer system is disclosed having a rechargeable thermometer and a charging assembly. The rechargeable thermometer is releasably engageable with the charging assembly, which in turn can be plugged into a household electrical outlet to provide charging electricity to a rechargeable battery housed within the thermometer. The thermometer is electrically connectable to the charging assembly to receive a charge so that when the thermometer is separated from the charger it can be used to sense the temperature of a food product into which the thermometer probe tip is introduced. The charging assembly has a pass-through plug to allow household appliances to be plugged into charger to receive electrical energy from the household outlet into which the charger itself is plugged. The thermometer can be held by the charger when not in use, thus ensuring the thermometer will always be fully charged prior to use.

Abstract: A wireless earpiece has a body with a speaker and various keys, and an adjustable ear support protruding from the upper body. The adjustable ear support is connected to the body by a first hinge and a rod. The first hinge allows a lower arm to rotate about a first axis with respect to the body. The rod allows the ear support to rotate about a longitudinal axis of the body. The lower arm is connected to a second arm through a second hinge. This allows the lower arm to rotate about a second axis. Such a configuration allows an operator to use and adjust a wireless earpiece with one hand.
