  • Publication number: 20240085028
    Abstract: A cooking appliance comprises an outer frame surface defining a cooktop and the cooktop defines an outlet port. An inner frame surface defines a heating cavity disposed below the cooktop and within the outer frame surface. The inner frame surface defines an inlet port and a chimney extends between a first end connected to the inlet port and a second end connected to the outlet port for directing steam from the heating cavity outside of the cooking appliance. A nozzle apparatus is connected around the outlet port and includes an inner wall defining at least one aperture. The at least one aperture is oriented at an acute angle relative to the cooktop. The nozzle apparatus includes at least one post for connection to the cooktop.

  • Patent number: 5217094
    Abstract: A parking brake control in which a spiral spring is loaded between a sector and a pedal and unwinds to take up slack in the cable of a vehicle parking brake and tension the cable when a locking pin is removed following installation of the control and connection of the cable to the sector. A pawl coacts with the same sector to hold the sector in its brake-applied position and to enable release of the brake by pushing on the pedal. A cam is carried by the pedal and acts against the cable to produce a mechanical advantage which progressively increases as the brake is progressively applied.
