Abstract: The present disclosure introduces a safety and convenience system for a gas grill. The disclosed system can have a grill assembly, a sensor assembly, and a system controller. The grill assembly can include a grill body, a grill lid, a grilling surface, one or more burners, a gas feed line, a grill adjustment valve, and an igniter. The sensor assembly may include gas sensors, temperature sensors, and these sensors can reside in a single or multiple sensor housings. The system controller can be connected to the sensors and receive a gas sensor value and a temperature sensor value. Based on the gas sensor value and the temperature sensor value, the system controller can be able to indicating a condition of the grill to a user, or control a feature of the grill for convenience or safety.

Abstract: A device having at least one screw plug for screwing into a first tapped hole of a housing or housing part of the device, the at least one screw plug including a device for sealing, such as a sealing ring, for the connection to the housing in a manner forming a seal, e.g., against the escape of oil. Introduced into the screw plug is a second tapped hole by which a sensor is releasably connectable, e.g., is able to be screwed in. The screw plug includes an end stop for conducting acoustical waves and for the simultaneous mechanical limit for screwing in the screw plug.
