  • Patent number: 8792781
    Abstract: A temperature-regulating device for a personal fluid includes a housing having an exterior wall defining an inner space and having an opening therethrough. A dividing wall within the inner space defines a reservoir sector and a heating system sector on opposite sides. A cap portion is affixable adjacent the opening, has a closable aperture therethrough, and is movable between a storing position in covering relation to the opening and a dispensing and filling position wherein the opening is exposed, for enabling a fluid to be placed within and removed from the reservoir sector. A heating system within the heating system sector includes a heating element adjacent the dividing wall, for enabling heat transfer to the wall and then to the reservoir sector. An activator affixed adjacent the exterior wall is in signal communication with the heating system. An illumination element is provided for facilitating visualization in low-light conditions.

  • Patent number: 8555513
    Abstract: A hand held rotary cutting device having an annular cutting blade with an interior diameter entirely protectively enclosed by a housing, and with a sharpened periphery partially protectively enclosed by the housing, wherein the housing has similarly configured front and rear components that are movable between an open position that permits removal of the cutting blade for cleaning, and a closed position wherein the front and rear components cooperate to rotatably support the cutting blade, and to define an elongate handle that overlies a housed portion of the cutting blade. Cutting pressure, stability and unusually effective guidance are supplied to the cutting blade by novel C-shaped lower portions of the front and rear components of the housing that extend continuously along opposite sides of the cutting blade just above and quite near to where selected portions of a long, exposed C-shaped reach of the sharpened periphery of the cutting blade is available to sever thin food such as pizza.
