  • Cookware Article with Internally Flush Rivets
    Publication number: 20110217146
    Abstract: An article of cookware is assembled by the riveted attachment of a handle. Novel rivets are first attached from the interior of the cookware article via a flush hole such that the deformation of the cookware article around the rivet locks the rivet to the cookware article yet leaves the rivet head flush with the interior surface of the cookware article. The handle is subsequently attached by deforming the opposite end of the rivet.

  • Cookware article with substantially flush rivets
    Patent number: 7966710
    Abstract: An article of cookware is assembled by the rivet attachment of a handle. The rivets are simultaneously attached to both the cookware vessel and the handle. The co-aligned holes for receiving the rivet in the wall of the cooking vessel and the handle flange are bevel such that exterior of the rivet is relatively flush with the interior of the cookware article and the exterior of the handle flange. Deformation of the rivet head also deforms the beveled edges of the through hole in the cookware article, locking it with the corresponding portion of the handle flange through hole.

  • Anodized Aluminum Cookware with Exposed Copper
    Publication number: 20110017603
    Abstract: Anodized aluminum cookware having an exposed copper base or ring is formed by anodizing the completed vessel using a protective cap to cover most of the copper. The portion of copper that is exposed to the anodizing bath only tarnishes slightly and is preferably polished off after a protective lacquer is applied, creating a clean even margin with the anodized aluminum portion of the vessel.

  • Cookware with Tarnish Protected Exterior
    Publication number: 20100247273
    Abstract: An article of cookware in the form of a cooking vessel exposes only a portion of a copper inner layer on the upper portion of the exterior sidewall. The layer does not change color or tarnish as it sufficiently distal from the bottom of the cooking vessel that it is not subject to direct heat and oxidation during normal use. The unique bright color of the native copper is further protected from tarnish caused by fingerprint by a protective coating that can withstand moderate heating.

  • Cookware with flat interior surface
    Patent number: 7761971
    Abstract: An article of cookware is fabricated by a combination of a deep drawing a metal sheet or laminate to form a fluid retaining preform and then using an impact bonding process to attach a medallion to the outside bottom surface of preform. In another aspect, the impact bonding process alternatively provides a means to achieve a slightly concave exterior bottom surface, while maintaining a substantially flat and/or slightly concave interior bottom surface to minimize the use of cooking oil.
