Abstract: An odor eliminating solution comprises the active deodorizing and antimicrobial agents of silver nanoparticles dispersed in colloidal suspension in a solution containing excess sodium tetraborate decahydrate, commonly referred to as borax. The silver nanoparticles provide deodorizing and antimicrobial properties through the colloidal dispersion which provides a high surface area to volume ratio for the suspension. The sodium tetraborate decahydrate provides deodorizing and antimicrobial properties through its co-complexing ability with various substances. The combination of both provides the present invention with long term stability and deodorizing and antimicrobial activity. Furthermore, the present invention includes the method for formulating the odor eliminating solution through the combination of a silver nanoparticle source solution and an aqueous sodium tetraborate solution which results in a chemical reaction that synthesizes the silver nanoparticles from the silver cations.

Abstract: A gas range has a plurality of burners each of which extend through a respective burner opening in a range top of the gas range. A gap is formed between each burner assembly and its respective opening. Each burner assembly includes a burner head which includes an annular air stability ring which extends into the gap between the burner assembly and the range top. The air stability ring deflects flue products escaping through this gap away from the burner ports. By deflecting the flue products away from the burner ports, the flame eminating from the burner ports is stabilized permitting more efficient combustion of the gas.

Abstract: A combustible readily ignitable rectangular container is erected from its originally flat folded state and inserted into a free-standing octagonal vented metal ignition sleeve resting on a grill surface. Crumpled paper is placed within the bottom of the ignition sleeve beneath pivoted vertically swinging grate members thereof and below the bottom of the combustible charcoal container. The quantity of charcoal briquettes is dumped directly from a briquette package into the combustible container to fill the same. The crumpled paper is ignited, which in turn ignites the combustible container and the charcoal briquettes in an efficient manner. After a short interval, a handle member is inserted through apertures of the metal ignition sleeve and the latter is bodily lifted from the grill surface to dump the ignited charcoal briquettes thereon, the vertically swinging grate members swinging downwardly to permit the dumping of the burning briquettes.
