Abstract: A toaster oven includes a housing having an internal heating compartment, at least one heating element within the internal heating compartment, a vent associated with at least one wall of the internal heating compartment, the vent being moveable between an open position where air is permitted to pass into the internal heating compartment through the vent, and a closed position where passage of air into the internal heating compartment through the vent is inhibited. The vent is configured to move from the closed position to the open position in response to a biasing force exerted by a food support tray received within the internal heating compartment.

Abstract: A magnetically engaged pump includes a pump housing with a rotatable magnetic drive assembly, a cylindrical canister and a rotatable driven magnet assembly. This magnetic coupling is associated with a pump rotor and a laterally positioned gear wheel to define a gear pump. This magnetic coupling is alternatively associated with a pump rotor with an impeller to define a centrifugal pump. Either pump includes a stationary shaft to mount the driven magnet assembly and pump rotor. A rotatable carrier with bushings and thrust bushings coaxially supports the rotatable driven magnet assembly and pump rotor.

Abstract: A shaving aid cartridge includes a base adapted to be coupled to a shaving implement and a body coupled to the base. The body is formed at least in part from a shaving aid preparation. The shaving aid cartridge defines a separation force at an interface between the body and the base of about 8 to about 30 pounds. Another embodiment of the shaving aid cartridge defines an energy to break of about 0.2 to about 2.0 foot pounds. Another embodiment of the shaving aid cartridge includes a body that defines an impact resistance of about 0.05 to about 0.40 inches. Another embodiment of a shaving aid cartridge includes a body that defines a wear rate of about 0.002 to about 0.040 millimeters per cycle. Yet another embodiment of a shaving aid includes a body that defines a hardness of about 0.2 to about 44.5 Newtons. In still another embodiment, the shaving aid cartridge includes a base adapted to be coupled to a shaving implement and a body coupled to the base.
