Abstract: A cooking appliance kit includes a housing having a plurality of walls defining a heating cavity. A cooking vessel is configured to be inserted into the heating cavity. The cooking vessel includes a first rounded end, a second rounded end, and an intermediate necked portion that defines first and second wells that at least partially intersect. First and second distinct heater plates are disposed in the first and second wells, respectively. First and second drive arms are removable coupled to the housing in an operable communication with the drive system. The first drive arm includes a flipping wand and the second drive arm includes a stirring wand.

The cooking vessel includes a first rounded end, a second rounded end, and an intermediate necked portion that define first and second wells that at least partially intersect. First and second distinct heater plates are disposed in the first and second wells, respectively. An arcuate dividing wall is disposed in the heating cavity and is removably engaged with the intermediate necked portion between the first and second distinct heater plates. The arcuate dividing wall defines a circular cooking zone and a crescent cooking zone. A drive arm is removably coupled to the housing and extends over the circular cooking zone. The drive arm includes one of a flipping wand and a stirring wand.

Abstract: A stirring system for a cooking appliance kit includes a housing having a drive system and a cooking vessel including a bottom wall, a first rounded end, a second rounded end, and an intermediate necked portion that define first and second wells that at least partially intersect. First and second drive arms are removably coupled with the housing in an operable communication with the drive system. A flipping wand is configured for removable engagement with the first drive arm and a stirring wand is configured for removable engagement with the second drive arm. The stirring wand includes a substantially vertical portion configured to slide along a second rounded end of the cooking vessel and a substantially horizontal portion configured to slideably rotate over the bottom wall of the cooking vessel.

The cooking vessel includes a first rounded end, a second rounded end, and an intermediate necked portion that define first and second wells that at least partially intersect. First and second drive arms are removably engaged to a top portion of the housing and in operable communication with the drive system. A flipping wand is configured for removable engagement with the first drive arm and a stirring wand is configured for removable engagement with the second drive arm. A lid is pivotally coupled to the housing and operable between an open position and a closed position.

Abstract: A chair for transporting a patient includes a base frame, a plurality of casters mounted to the base frame, a patient support, and a push bar mounted to a back section of the patient support for use when transporting the patient. A wheel is coupled to the base frame for movement between a downward brake-steer position, facilitating steering the chair during transport of the patient, and an upward neutral position. The patient support includes articulated leg and seat sections. A handle is coupled to the patient support and is movable between a position in which movement of the handle moves the leg section relative to the seat section and a position in which movement of the handle does not move the leg section relative to the seat section.

Abstract: A chair for transporting a patient includes a base frame, a plurality of casters mounted to the base frame, a seat, and a push bar mounted to a back section of the seat for use when transporting the patient. A wheel is coupled to the base frame for movement between a downward brake-steer position, facilitating steering the chair during transport of the patient, and an upward neutral position. A brake mechanism brakes the casters when the brake mechanism is in a braking position and permits rotation of the casters when the brake mechanism is in a releasing position. A brake-steer shaft is coupled to the brake mechanism. Movement of the shaft moves the brake mechanism between the braking position and the releasing position. The brake-steer shaft is pivotably coupled to the base frame. The brake-steer shaft is coupled to the wheel so that rotation of the brake-steer shaft moves the wheel between the brake-steer position and the neutral position.

Abstract: A vehicle instrument panel includes a movable storage bin positioned in a center stack area of the instrument panel. The storage bin is movable between a closed position for storage and an open position for convenient driver access. The movable storage bin includes a faceplate having vehicle system controls exposed thereon, such as radio and HVAC controls. The radio or other electronic components associated with the system controls are preferably mounted elsewhere in the vehicle, and connected by flex cable, flat wire or transmitted signals to the system controls.

Abstract: A chair for supporting a patient above a floor comprising a base frame, an intermediate frame coupled to the base frame for pivoting movement relative to the base frame about a generally horizontal transverse axis thereon and wherein the intermediate frame is lockable relative to the base frame. An articulated patient support including longitudinally spaced back and seat sections mounted to the intermediate frame for movement relative to one another and relative to the intermediate frame and wherein the back and seat sections are movable relative to the base frame about the horizontal transverse axis when the intermediate frame is locked relative to the base frame.
