Abstract: A safety timer device, for a cooking appliance connected to an energy source, the cooking appliance having a heat generating component in communication with a heat controller. A timer communicates with the heat controller configured to count down a predetermined cooking time. An alarm unit, in communication with the timer, is configured to communicate an alarm signal for a predetermined alarm time after the cooking time expires.

An alarm unit, in communication with the timer, is configured to communicate an alarm signal for a predetermined alarm time after the cooking time expires. An ON/OFF device in communication with the timer, the energy source and the heat generating component, is configured to disconnect the energy source from the heat generating component after the alarm time expires. A reset device in communication with the timer, the alarm unit and the ON/OFF device configured to reset the timer to the predetermined cooking time, terminate the alarm signal after the cooking time expires, and reconnect the energy source with the heat generating component after the alarm time expires.

Abstract: A bicycle propelled by stepping motion comprises a frame, forward and rear wheels, and a steering wheel. A pair of elongate pedals extend rearward from a pivot connection to the frame. An axle is mounted for rotation to the frame and has a crank arm at either end. A drive sprocket is fixed to the axle for rotation in a vertical plane, and an endless chain couples the drive sprocket to a rear wheel sprocket. Each pedal carries a connecting structure that receives an associated connecting element that extends horizontally from one of the crank arms. The connecting structure defines an arcuate path along which the associated connecting element is constrained to displace. The path is so shaped that the connecting structure engages the connecting element with a contacting surface oriented normal to the circle which the connecting element is constrained to follow by virtue of connection to the crank arm. Less force is misdirected and smoother operation is obtained.
