Abstract: A device for measuring a pressure of a vehicle closure member includes a pressure sensitive tip, a base, a plurality of electrical conductors, and a neck. The pressure sensitive tip is configured to output an electronic signal that corresponds to a pressure at the pressure sensitive tip. The electrical conductors electrically couple the pressure sensitive tip to the base. The neck includes an inner layer and an outer layer. The inner layer is disposed about the electrical conductors. The outer layer is disposed about the inner layer. The neck is flexible along a length of the neck.

Abstract: The disclosure describes various aspects of techniques that can be used for making hermetic feedthroughs for enclosures. For example, a panel that provides a hermetic seal to a system enclosure can include an enclosure board made of a printed circuit board (PCB) and configured to have a size and shape that precisely covers an access to the system enclosure, the enclosure board including multiple inner connectors on an inner side of the PCB facing the inside of the system enclosure and multiple outer connectors on an outer side of the PCB facing the outside the system enclosure for feeding one or more of signals or fluids (e.g., gases, liquids, vacuum) through the PCB by having inner and outer connectors connected through the PCB. The panel may further include a gasket fitting the size and shape of the enclosure board and used with the enclosure board to provide the hermetic seal.

Abstract: An apparatus for converting a barbecue into a pizza cooking oven includes an open door frame and vertical side panels pivotally attached to the vertical side posts of the open door frame. The side panels can be pivotally adjusted on the open door frame to extend rearward of the open door frame at different pivot positions. When the side panels are extended rearward of the open door frame, the bottom edges of the side panels provide a support base for setting the apparatus onto the top rim of a bottom bowl of a barbecue and the top edges of the side panels support a cover of a barbecue in an elevated position above the bottom bowl of the barbecue. The elevation of the cover creates an expanded cooking chamber above the bottom bowl of the barbecue and the open door frame provides access to the expanded cooking chamber.

Abstract: A cooking utensil has a food container, such as a cooking basket, and a lift bracket attached the sidewall of the food container. The lift bracket includes a riser portion having a catch opening and an outwardly extending upper ledge portion having an insertion opening in vertical plane alignment with the catch opening of the riser portion. A lift handle engages the lift bracket on the food container through the insertion opening in the lift bracket. An inwardly projecting catch tip on the engagement end of the lift handle can be made to catch the catch opening in the riser portion of the lift bracket when the lift bracket engagement end of the lift handle is fully inserted in the lift bracket. When the food container is lifted by the handle, the weight of the food container will maintain the engagement of the lift handle and lift bracket.
