Abstract: A cooking implement for toasting and similar purposes has an elongated handle and a pivotally mounted food holding member which comprises a pair of legs extending from a pivotal mounting to respective foot portions from which respective arms extend to lie adjacent the respective portions of the legs whereby food can be held between the respective arms and legs and the foot portions are such that the legs are resiliently displaceable in a transverse direction extending from one leg towards the other and the respective arms and legs are resiliently displaceable away from each other; the foot portions are sufficiently spaced in the transverse direction to provide stable support for the food holding member when it rests on a supporting surface. The food holding member can be made from a single thin rod, for example of stainless steel with the foot portions formed from respective curved loops of relatively large radius of curvature.

Abstract: A drum winch for a yacht has a drum rotatably mounted on a supporting shaft structure through roller clutch means to permit rotation of the drum in one rotary direction only and seal means are provided for sealing the roller clutch means from the exterior of the winch, the seal means preferably being of a stretched O-ring arrangement mounted over an annular ramp-like surface having a radially inwardly directed component. The roller clutch means is dimensioned relative to the exterior diameter of the shaft structure and/or relative to the internal diameter of a central bore in the drum so that a yieldable interference fit is established with lubricant whereby if the load applied to the drum exceeds a predetermined load which is less than the load which would cause damage or destruction of the roller clutch means, creep or slippage occurs at the yieldable interference fit.
