A cooking appliance includes a body that defines a cooking cavity, a door that defines a storage pocket, and a partition. The door is movable relative to the body between a closed position, wherein the door covers an opening to the cooking cavity, and an open position, wherein access to the cooking cavity is provided. The partition is operable between a stowed condition, wherein the partition is disposed within the storage pocket defined by the door, and the use condition, wherein the partition is positioned within the cooking cavity and divides the cooking cavity into a first sub-cavity and a second sub-cavity.

Cooking appliance

A cooking appliance includes a housing that defines a cooking cavity. A first temperature sensor is coupled to the housing and is configured to detect an air temperature of the cooking cavity. A rack is disposed within the cooking cavity and includes a second temperature sensor that is coupled to a frame of the rack.

Temperature sensors for a cooking appliance

A probe assembly for a cooking appliance includes an outer case that includes a cap, a body, and retention features that are coupled to each of the cap and the body. A first temperature sensor is operably coupled to the cap of the outer case. A probe is operably coupled to the body of the outer case and is selectively concealed by the cap. A second temperature sensor is operably coupled to the probe. A controller is communicatively coupled to each of the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor. The controller is configured to receive a first signal from the first temperature sensor when the cap is directly coupled to the body of the outer case.

Probe assembly for a cooking appliance

A gravity-driven fluid filtering system that includes a universal fluid (typically water) filter and a plurality of differently sized fluid dispensing adapters. The universal fluid filter includes: at least one gravity-driven fluid filter media; a housing having an interior and at least one fluid inlet aperture configured to allow a fluid to be treated to enter the interior of the housing by a force of gravity and into contact with the at least one gravity-driven water filter media spaced within the interior of the housing; and at least one treated fluid outlet aperture configured to deliver treated fluid to at least one of a plurality vessels each having a differently sized fluid receiving aperture. The plurality of differently sized fluid dispensing adapters each having a sloped and contoured fluid receiving portion, which is different for each adapter.

Gravity fluid/water filter system

A gravity-driven water filtering system comprising: a gravity-driven water filter configured to engage and deliver treated water through apertures of various sizes and a filter receiving device. The gravity-driven water filter includes: a bottom portion; a water filter; and a top portion. The water filter is configured to be removably engaged by hand without the use of tools from the bottom portion and the water filter, the bottom portion and the top portion are each configured to be removably engaged and disengaged to allow for replacement of the filter and reassembly of the overall gravity filter assembly by hand and without the use of tools. The filter receiving device is a) a flat bottomed stand; b) a carrying device; or c) an adapter.
