An information device having a printer includes a body and a printer portion for housing the printer and a printing medium. The body has a display screen side in which a display screen is positioned and a printer side positioned opposite the display screen side. The printer portion is attached to the printer side of the body such that the printer portion remains concealed during operation of the printer when the information device is viewed from the display screen side.

Computer with attached printer

A device that manages kitchen information, including an information storage device that stores a plurality of recipes, a display device that displays at least one of the plurality of recipes stored in the information storage device and a microcontroller that selects at least one of the plurality of recipes having a main recipe and at least one subsidiary recipe, where the subsidiary recipe being a scaled version of the main recipe. The display device can further display at least one of the plurality of recipes including a cooking time associated with the recipe and one or more timers. By selecting a timer, the microcontroller automatically sets the selected timer equal to the associated cooking time.

Kitchen information and database management method and apparatus

An information device including a display portion in which a display screen is positionable and a removable keyboard with a first set of function keys. The information device can selectively assign different functions to each of the function keys. The display screen includes a second set of function keys. The functions assigned to the second set of function keys correspond to the functions of the first set of function keys. Both sets of function keys correspond in size, shape or number to allow the user to determine which function key is desired from either location.

A double container bag system for collapsible bicycles and the like is disclosed. The bag system serves as a protective container for transporting either a collapsible or a conventional bicycle. The system includes a series of double walled pockets sewn into the various disclosed bags and into which are inserted foldable panels. These panels and the bicycle container bag are fitted into a second container which becomes a saddle bag which fits over the rear of the bicycle when it is in use. Some of the parts of the disclosed system can be rearranged so as to join and form a hand carried piece of luggage.

Container bag system for bicycles

A collapsible bicycle using union coupling assemblies attached to bisected frame bars and a bisected handlebar gooseneck which allow the bicycle frame to be separated into two sections and the handlebars to be removed. The union coupling assemblies consist of a threaded memeber, a flanged member, and a threaded collar securing the threaded member to the flanged member. The handlebar gooseneck coupling assembly is further provided with an interlocking key to prevent relative rotation of the upper and lower sections. The end portions of the bisected frame bars and the bisected handlebar gooseneck to be joined are fitted within the interior of the union coupling assemblies which have an internal recess comprised of a cylindrical surface area. In the preferred means of attachment, the union coupling assemblies are non-galvanized and have a close-tolerance sliding fit to the external diameter of the frame bars and the gooseneck stem to provide for optimum conditions for brazed connections using a silver-brazing alloy for the brazing filler material which is flowed into the space between the internal recess of the union coupling assemblies and the external diameter of the frame bars and the gooseneck stem.
