Abstract: This invention describes an ignition flame for a gas cooking burner that uses an ignition flame system to reignite a gas burner when the burner's flame is extinguished due to drafts or cross winds, when the gas burner is set on very low settings, even in the presence of a side wind.
Abstract: A Wheel Spoke Adjuster Guard that comprises a visually pleasing outer shape with an internal cavity, where the internal cavity has a lower portion shaped complimentary to the wheel adjuster nuts on the wheel spokes of either motorcycles, bicycles, or other motor conveyances using spoked wheels. The upper portion of the internal cavity has a shape complimentary to the existing diameters of the spokes of the wheel assemblies. The adjuster guard has a means to lock the Wheel Spoke Adjuster Guard onto the wheel spoke, preventing any unwanted motion.
Abstract: A multi piece gas burner assembly that is machined or cast and having a burner base that contains holes for primary air where the hole dimensions do not exceed the height of a jet mounted therein. The burner base is fastened onto an appliance. The burner head rests upon a boss on the burner base and has a tube that directs a flammable gas-air mixture from the burner base into a cavity created between the burner head and the burner cap. The burner cap rests upon the burner head and contains an outer edge that is turned downwards in order to allow fluid to drip away from the flame. A groove is cut into the burner cap just inside the down turned outer edge and provides a location for a support flame. The location of the groove prevents fluid and dust from collecting inside the groove. The groove captures the flammable gas-air mixture, which provides a constant ignition source for the gas-air mixture through slots in the burner cap when ignited.
Abstract: A fluid storage tank that comprises a tank shell. The tank shell is fabricated from a top, a bottom, a front end cap, a rear end cap, a first side, and a second side. The tank shell has an interior defining an open volume inside. The tank shell is supported by at least one baffle that is fastened onto the tank shell. The top has a hatch that contains a conventional hinge means and is capable of being latched by a conventional latch means. A drain hole is located on the bottom of the tank, or on a bottom sump that is attached onto the bottom of the fluid storage tank assembly. The top and the bottom of the tank assembly are generally parallel in relationship. The first side and the second side of the tank assembly are both attached to the top and the bottom of the tank assembly. The top is shown smaller than the bottom creating a trapezoidal shape.
Abstract: This invention describes a floatable, collapsible utility trailer which can be filled with gear and towed behind a boat or, alternatively, pulled behind a person on dry land. The unit is collapsible for easy carrying and storage and comes with a carrying handle.
Abstract: The current invention is a linearly regulated gas valve for a gas burner, utilizing a central plug to control the gas flow. This valve has the capability of providing a smoothly increasing or decreasing gaseous flow between the highest setting and the lowest setting, allowing the user a wide choice of settings for any particular food that is being prepared on the gas burner.
This invention also does not require an additional jet to operate at the low setting.
Abstract: A simple flower pot stand that is inserted into the soft ground wherein the device encompasses a tube with a beveled end and a flat end that is frictionally inserted into a receiving boss on the flower pot support. The flower pot support comprises a disk with a outer flange and an inner pocket to provide a reservoir for liquid that overflows from the plant pot. The receiving boss on the flower pot support is mounted on the bottom of the flower pot support.
Abstract: A motorcycle suspension using an air bag in place of a spring, having a front bag bracket that is fixed to the motorcycle main frame and a pivoting rear bag bracket that is attached to a swing arm of a motorcycle. An air bag is sandwiched between the front bag bracket and the rear bag bracket and is compressed and extended with the action of the rear bag bracket and the swing arm. A shock absorber is mounted in its conventional place and dampens the motions of the swing arm and the rear bag bracket. The air bag is capable of being inflated or deflated by the driver either while driving or stationary. The front bag bracket and rear bag bracket are pivotably attached to the main frame of the motorcycle with a common pivot axis, allowing a scissor like motion, which allows the suspension to react in a conventional manner.
Abstract: This invention uses a group of components set in parallel transmission lines and terminated with hi-speed switching circuits. The charging and discharging of the circuits are controlled by the opening and closing of the switching circuits causing a percentage of the unused energy to be reflected back to the charge source, returning a portion of the unused charge to be used at a later date when the source is needed to drive a component.
Abstract: The present invention is an improved igniter assembly for electrical ignition of a gas burner. The improved igniter assembly includes an electrode mantle that has a wavy surface.
Abstract: A rotisserie basket for cooking whole chickens, roasts, etc. without the need to pierce the food with a spit or rod as in other, conventional rotisserie baskets. The rotisserie basket consists of a pair of end plates secured in a parallel relationship by a set of parallel rods. A gate is hingeably attached to a hinge rod, and when closed, bears against a latch rod. The gate is secured into position by a latch that positions the latch rod in a “U” shaped portion of a centrally located rod. A leaf spring holds the food to be cooked onto the set of rods, securely positioning the food for cooking.
Abstract: This invention describes a grill cabinet with a small footprint when stored. The cabinet holds at least one swing-out shelves that contains a cooking burner that can be used to cook warm foods, and at least one standard pull-out drawer which can hold cooking supplies or for preparing foods. A smoker oven can be added in the base of the cabinet. The cabinet has an area that can hold a small bottle of LP gas, valves and gas supply lines, as well as the smoker.
Abstract: This invention describes a heat dissipation system that uses a pair of panels rotatably mounted in a grill, which allows a cook to equalize the heat radiated within a gas or electric grill to provide more even heat distribution and prevents wind from extinguishing the burner flame, even in the presence of a crosswind. A grease drainage system is also described for a gas or electric grill.
Abstract: This invention incorporates a multi-ring burner assembly utilizing at least two flame rings to gently and evenly warm food and a third flame ring in conjunction with the first two flame rings for cooking food.This design has the further advantages of easy replacement of both the igniters and the gas jets from the top of the appliance without having to remove the unit from the appliance.
