| 20080203746 | Folding pizza peel - A pizza peel features a blade and a handle that are pivotally-connected by a fastening arrangement featuring a knob. The handle may be moved between a storage position and a deployed position and may be locked in the selected position by manipulation of the knob. When the handle is in the stored position, the pizza peel may be easily stored. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20080203747 | Serving utensil - A serving utensil including a handle member, manufactured from a first predetermined material and having a first predetermined size and a first predetermined shape. A serving member, manufactured from a second predetermined material and having a second predetermined size and a second predetermined shape, is operably connected to such handle member. The serving member further includes at least one stationary portion operably connected to such handle member at a predetermined location thereon and a plurality of moveable segmented portions operably connected to the stationary portion at one end thereof for allowing the serving member to conform to a predetermined shape of a dish from which food is being removed. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20110049918 | Utensil handle - A handle for a kitchen utensil or the like includes a hand gripping section having a rearward push/pull valley with a varying, substantially elliptical cross-section that forms a floor, a push slope tapering up and forward from the floor, and a pull slope tapering up and back from the floor. The radial cross-sectional area of an end of the pull slope and a radial cross-sectional area of an end of the push slope each are substantially larger than a radial cross-sectional area of the floor. The handle section further includes a ring stop section disposed forward of the push/pull valley with one or more concentric rings extending above a surface of the handle member. The kitchen utensil includes a blade mating section disposed forward of the handle section and configured to receive a blade. | 03-03-2011 |
| 20110187137 | Heat Shield For Grilling Tools - A heat shield having at least one shield portion, a grip having a proximal end and a distal end, and a collar located proximal of said grip and adapted to receive the shaft of a tool is provided herein. The at least one shield portion is rotatable with respect to the grip and may be weighted such that it remains pointing downward when the grip portion is rotated about a longitudinal axis therethrough. The at least one shield portion may include a main shield and at least one secondary shield rotatably connected to the main shield. The heat shield may also be provided as part of a cooking tool having a shaft with a proximal end and a distal end and a cooking element attached at the distal end of the shaft. | 08-04-2011 |
| 20120119527 | BARBEQUE GRILLING UTENSIL - The present invention is a barbeque grilling utensil that includes a shaft body, an internal shaft that is placed internally within the shaft body, an L-shaped actuation lever to movably secure the actuation lever to the shaft body and a spatula portion that is disposed on the shaft body that is controlled by the actuation lever. The barbeque grilling utensil also includes a handle that is disposed on the shaft body and is squeezed together with the actuation lever to control and operate the spatula portion, an internal spring that is integral to the pin to pivot joint and a pair of serrated contact blades that are disposed on one or more sides of the spatula portion that is integral to the pin to pivot joint. | 05-17-2012 |
| 20140070555 | Spatula - A spatula having an elongated supporting core enveloped by a unitary molded plastic cover. The core has a longitudinally extending handle portion, terminating at a forward end thereof in a generally flat portion. The cover includes a generally flat blade disposed over and extending outwardly from the flat portion of the core, and a handle which envelops and extends from the handle portion of the core. The handle of the cover meets the blade at a narrow neck. The core is preferably made of a stiff thermally insulating material, while the cover is preferably made of silicone rubber. | 03-13-2014 |
| 20150097387 | ADJUSTABLE KITCHEN UTENSIL - An adjustable kitchen utensil includes a first component having a first handle portion, and a first serving portion attached to the first handle portion by a first connecting portion. An embodiment of the adjustable kitchen utensil includes a second component having a second handle portion, and a second serving portion attached to the second handle portion by a second connecting portion. This embodiment has an attachment mechanism for attaching the first and second components. The attachment mechanism permits adjustment of the size of a serving surface of the attached first and second serving portions. An alternate embodiment includes a removable handle subassembly. | 04-09-2015 |
| 20160143466 | FOOD SERVING ASSEMBLY - A food serving assembly for removing the first slice of a pie without breaking the crust of the slice of pie includes a handle. A blade is coupled to the handle. The blade is segmented. The blade is positionable in a deflected position to be slid beneath the slice of pie without breaking the crust of the pie. The blade is positionable in a locked position to lift the slice of pie. | 05-26-2016 |
