  • Publication number: 20100207003
    Abstract: A support comprising a generally C-shaped body having two free ends and bridging section. A threaded clamping bolt extending through the clamping bolt has a pivoting jaw at one end and a knob at the other end. The clamp body has a first passageway extending through the bridging section of the clamp body, the first passageway extending in a direction generally parallel to a direction defined by a position of the clamping bolt. The clamp body has second passageway extending through its distal end. The second passageway is generally perpendicular to the first passageway. The two passageways intersect at a grip point, and a set screw or bolt at the grip point communicates with the first and second passageways. The set screw is adapted to hold an elongated member in fixed positions while the elongated member extends through either one of the two intersecting passageways.

  • Patent number: 7344173
    Abstract: Removable handles for use with a cooking utensil. In the preferred embodiment of the present inventions, the cooking utensil is a griddle which is intended for use on a grill to provide for the frying of foods. The removable handles are easily put into or out of engagement with a griddle, and have downwardly extending legs which elevate and support the griddle when placed on a flat surface. It is intended that the handles be removed from the griddle during the period of time that the griddle is used for cooking, such that the handles and leg supports always remain cook. Thus, when the food is cooked, the griddle can be removed from the grill using the handles without the use of oven mitts. Furthermore, the griddle can be set on a flat surface for use as a serving platter. Because the legs will elevate the griddle, it is not necessary to use trivets to prevent heat damage to the surface.
