Patent number: 12274398Abstract: According to one example, a cookware vessel includes a bracket attached to an exterior of a vessel, and a detachable handle. The bracket has upper and lower partial geometric surfaces. The handle includes a grip portion, a coupling, an actuator, and a spring. The coupling has a channel configured to surround at least a portion of the upper partial geometric surface. The actuator is rotatingly attached to the coupling, and has one or more hooks that are configured to engage the lower partial geometric surface when the actuator is rotated in a first direction and that are further configured to disengage from the lower partial geometric surface when the actuator is manually rotated in a second direction by the user. The spring is configured to apply a force to the actuator so as to rotate the actuator in the first direction, when the actuator is released by the user.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2023Date of Patent: April 15, 2025Assignee: Meyer Intellectual Properties LimitedInventors: Hing Fai Chan, Stanley Kin Sui Cheng

Patent number: 12004683Abstract: According to one example, an article of cookware includes a substantially horizontal bottom having an interior surface and an opposing exterior surface, and a sidewall extending upward from the bottom to terminate at a rim. The bottom, the sidewall, and the rim define an interior volume for one or more food items. The sidewall has an inverted frustoconical shape with an upper portion, and a lower portion positioned below the upper portion. The upper portion has an outward tilt of less than about 10 degrees from a vertical line. The lower portion has an outward tilt that is at least about 15 degrees greater than the outward tilt of the upper portion.Type: GrantFiled: November 24, 2021Date of Patent: June 11, 2024Assignee: Meyer Intellectual Properties LimitedInventors: Joshua Morenstein, Christopher Hibmacronan, Christian Scott Ross, Myungjae Park, Stanley Kin Sui Cheng, Stephanie Hai Yan Chen, Xi Zheng

Patent number: 11974701Abstract: According to one example, a cookware vessel includes a bracket coupled to an exterior of a vessel, and a detachable handle. The handle includes a grip portion, a coupling fixedly attached to the grip portion, an actuator rotatingly coupled to the handle, and a spring. The coupling has a channel that is configured to surround at least a portion of an upper horizontally extending rod of the bracket. The actuator has a top portion configured to engage and disengage an upper edge of the bracket when the actuator is rotated forward and backward. The actuator also has hooks configured to engage and disengage a lower horizontally extending rod of the bracket when the actuator is rotated forward and backward. The spring is configured to apply a force to the actuator so as to rotate the actuator forward, when the actuator is released by a user.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2021Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: Meyer Intellectual Properties LimitedInventors: Hing Fai Chan, Stanley Kin Sui Cheng

Publication number: 20230263335Abstract: An article of cookware has an interior cooking surface that with raised linear or curvilinear bands with an outer layer of a first material that is one of ceramic or metallic in nature to provide cut and abrasion resistance. Valleys or grooves between the raised bands have an outer layer of a second material with low surface energy to facilitate food release and cleaning of debris. The bands are arranged to protect the second material from cutting and abrasion that would damage the second material. The bands aid in enhancing distribution of cooking oil to enhance searing and browning of foods.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 16, 2021Publication date: August 24, 2023Applicant: Meyer Intellectual Properties LimitedInventors: Vincent Chi-seng Cheng, Tanawata Atichat, Li Kam Yuen

Publication number: 20210259452Abstract: Food stuffs are cooked at precise temperatures, which are optionally below 100° C., in a vessel that is evacuated to exclude air, in which low pressure steam replaces the air. When a sufficient quantity of air is excluded and replaced with water vapor, the temperature of vapor is accurately measured inside the vessel below the lid to control the temperatures within about 1° C. Air is preferably excluded via a controlled heated process for a relatively short period of time at high temperature to generate steam, the temperature is lowered to condense water vapor upon which the lid will sealingly engage the rim of the vessel, forming a partial vacuum in the cooking vessel.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 3, 2020Publication date: August 26, 2021Applicant: Meyer Intellectual Properties LimitedInventors: Stanley Kin Sui Cheng, Edward S.

Publication number: 20200349860Abstract: According to one example, a system includes a computing device having a processor that is operable to display a first portion of a cooking recipe. The system further includes a heat source system having a heat source operable to provide an amount of energy to be used to cook a food item in accordance with the cooking recipe, and a processor operable to adjust the amount of energy provided by the heat source based on one or more communications with the computing device. The system further includes an auxiliary button system having an interface operable to receive an instruction to move from a first step of the cooking recipe to a second step, and a processor operable to transmit, via a second communication link with the computing device, an indication of the instruction.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 20, 2020Publication date: November 5, 2020Applicant: Meyer Intellectual Properties LimitedInventors: Darren Erik Vengroff, Christoph Milz

Patent number: 10687671Abstract: A stackable cookware article system may include a stackable handle having a grip portion including a projection and a hole configured for stacking with similarly configured handles. The hole may be adapted to receive in at least an upper inner surrounding portion a complimentary downward extending projection that extends from a substantially similar grip portion. When stacked, cookware articles, such as a series of vessels having progressively decreasing diameters, deploying the handle may stably stack in nested arrangements external portions of an inner nested vessel contacting the internal portion of an outer surrounding vessel in which it nests.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2018Date of Patent: June 23, 2020Assignee: Meyer Intellectual Properties LimitedInventor: Kwong Wah Lee
