Abstract: An oven for heating food and associated components and methods. The oven includes a food heating compartment bounding a food holding space for holding food to be heated. The food holding space has an open top. A bottom wall of the food heating compartment supports food in the food holding space and has gas flow inlets. A gas supply plenum is disposed below the food holding space and is in fluid communication with the food holding space via the gas flow inlets. A gas supply duct defines a gas supply passageway disposed below and fluidly coupled to the gas supply plenum. A heater heats the gas as the gas flows through the gas supply passageway. A blower blows the gas through the gas supply passageway, into the gas supply plenum and through the gas flow inlets into the food holding space for heating the food.

Abstract: A microwavable container for use in a microwave oven that includes provisions to stir or mix food during microwave cooking. This mixing action is achieved by utilizing the motor of the microwave oven. Such mixing provides more even heating of food, and reduces the need to stop the microwave oven to manually stir food.

Abstract: An electrical enclosure wherein an electrical component can be moved between various positions (e.g., connected, disconnected, test, etc.) without opening an enclosure door. The electrical enclosure supports a component for movement between a withdrawn position, a test position, and an inserted position. A handle is accessible by an operator from an exterior of the enclosure and is configured to move the component between the respective positions without having to open the enclosure. The handle is integral with the enclosure and thus an operator needs no special tool or other device to effect movement of the electrical component between its respective positions.

Abstract: A bus support system is disclosed that accommodates three-wire three-phase circuitry and four-wire three-phase circuitry. A main bus support element is designed to receive horizontal bus bars and vertical bus bars for installation in an electrical enclosure. The main support element is supplemented by an add-on bus support element where a neutral bus is required for four-wire three-phase operation.

Abstract: A handle is provided for sports equipment such as a lacrosse or hockey stick which includes cushioning and grip ribs. In one embodiment, the shaft of the handle defines one or more regions of reduced diameter or thickness including a plurality of elongate longitudinal grooves extending around the periphery thereof in circumferentially spaced-apart relationship. Interior cushioning ribs are defined in the region of the grooves by a layer of cover or coating material which is applied to the surface of the shaft and fills the grooves. In another embodiment, the shaft includes tapered regions in the shaft and the layer of cover or coating material fills the tapered regions to define cushioning ribs.

Abstract: A clip support member adapted for use with an article such as a golf bag adapted to be carried in an over-the-back relationship. The clip is defined by a neck and spaced-apart rigid but flexible arms which curve downwardly and inwardly away from the neck thus allowing the arms to follow the contour of the outer surface of the golf bag. The clip is preferably made from a shape memory or other suitable material which allows the arms to be flexed laterally away from each other by a user when the clip is engaged against the sides of the waist of the user. The clip is preferably secured to the golf bag in a relationship wherein the clip extends in the same direction as the longitudinal axis of the bag. Buckles on the golf bag secure a jacket to the golf bag which, in turn, secures the clip to the golf bag.

Abstract: A ball catching and delivery head including a frame and a base for a lacrosse stick is provided. In addition to a socket for receiving a handle, the base includes a cavity for receiving a flexible cartridge and also trusses laterally located relative to the base that terminally connect with the frame and the base. The frame is vertically flexible relative to the base and the extent to which the frame is so flexible is dependent upon the cartridge flexibility and compressibility. The trusses prevent lateral movements of the frame relative to the base. Different cartridges made of different materials may be substituted for one another to achieve different flexing characteristics.

Abstract: A protective sleeve or jacket for a golf towel or the like. The sleeve comprises an elongated waterproof sheath defining a hollow interior adapted to receive and house the towel. The sleeve has opposed ends or collars adapted to be independently opened to allow access to the opposed ends of the towel for drying and cleaning purposes such as, for example, drying or cleaning a golf club, a golf ball or the golfer's hands.

Abstract: A golf bag is disclosed which is adapted to be carried over the back of a user in a generally vertical relationship. The golf bag incorporates a shoulder strap assembly including a pair of elongate straps including upper ends adapted to extend and protrude through the top of the bag at a strap pivot/entry point which is located both above the open golf club receiving end of the bag and fore of the front face of the bag so as to eliminate the natural tendency of a bag to tip or sway at the bottom when picked up or set down. In one embodiment, the upper ends of the straps extend through respective apertures defined in a shield which extends from the top front face of the bag in the direction of the back face of the bag and merge into the arms of a link member located inside the bag interior and a strap leg which extends from the link member through the bag interior and is secured to the back of the bag.

Abstract: A handle for sports equipment such as a lacrosse or hockey stick including cushioning and grip ribs. In one embodiment, the shaft of the handle defines one or more regions of reduced diameter or thickness such as, in one embodiment, a plurality of elongate longitudinal grooves extending around the periphery thereof in spaced-apart relationship. Interior cushioning ribs are defined in the region of the grooves by a layer of cover or coating material which is applied to the surface of the shaft and fills the grooves. In another embodiment, the shaft includes tapered regions in the shaft and the layer of cover or coating material fills the tapered regions to define cushioning ribs.

Abstract: A head of a lacrosse stick including a frame defining a back stop wall at one end, a scoop wall at an opposite end and side walls therebetween. A plurality of fingers are spaced along the interior face of the back wall and side walls respectively. Each of the fingers protrude outwardly from the interior face of the back wall and side walls respectively and include an outer sloped surface adapted to guide and direct a lacrosse ball into the pocket of the head. Each of the fingers also include a lower sloped shoulder adapted to hold the lacrosse ball in the head and guide and direct the ball between the back wall and the scoop wall. In one embodiment, the length of the fingers increases between the back wall and the side walls to define a pocket for the ball and then decreases along the side walls in the direction of the scoop wall to define a ball ramp.
