Abstract: A gas lighter burner having a porous throttle disc for controlling the flow of gas therethrough and a mechanism which interacts with the throttle disc as a result of changes in its axial length due to changes in temperature whereby the throttle disc maintains a desired gas flow despite such variations in temperature.
Abstract: An element guard for an electric toaster is formed from a sheet metal blank and has at least one grid formed by extending a slotted area of the blank. The guard defines a toasting chamber within the toaster and the grid has openings therein so that heat radiated by a heating element of the toaster can toast bread in the toasting chamber.
