Abstract: A multi-purpose poultry roaster and baking rack which has a drip pan, and an assembly of wires which forms a plurality of upwardly directed generally vertically oriented skewers positioned about the periphery of the interior surface of the drip pan, and a centrally located upstanding prong formed of the middle portions of the wire assembly, so that poultry or other similar foods can be roated on the inner prong, while potatoes, or apples, or other similar items can be baked on the skewers located about the periphery of the interior surface of the drip pan. The wire assembly is held together by interlocking notch and apex portions of the wire, and held to the drip pan by additional wires affixed to the assembly of wires, and curved to align with holes located about the periphery of the drip pan.

Abstract: A grinding mill for coffee beans and the like including a receiver for articles to be ground having in its lower region at least one passageway for gravitationally passing the articles, a relatively rotative discharge member beneath the receiver for discharging ground material, and grinding means communicating between said passageway and discharge member for grinding articles from said passageway and discharging ground material from said discharge member.

Abstract: A self-contained grinding device, for pepper corns and the like, includes only three molded plastic elements and can be attached to a suitable container which stores the material to be ground. The device includes two cylindrical housings which are end connected to form a rotary joint and an elongate gear member which has a grinding head portion which cooperates with a grinding chamber formed in a first housing remote from the container. The gear member has a shaft portion with a bifurcated end which extends from the first housing into a second housing connected to the container. The gear member is fixed to the second housing by a snap-fitting engagement of the bifurcated free end with a transverse bridge arm which is integrally formed with the second housing. The bridge arm is additionally connected to a hopper wall similarly integrally formed with the second housing, which hopper wall feeds the pepper corns from the container to the grinding chamber in the first housing.
