Abstract:
1. A food cooking container comprising: a food cooking portion, a handgrip or handle functionally attached to the food cooking portion; a heat dissipating metal mass comprising a cold terminal, a sheath defining a cavity and having a prolongation, the handgrip or handle containing a first recess for accommodating the sheath, and a second recess for accommodating the cold terminal, wherein the prolongation of the sheath is traversed by a fixing screw, the fixing screw located to receive heat originating from the food cooking portion of the food cooking container, the fixing screw together with the sheath acting as a hot terminal by the transmission of heat originating from the food cooking container through the screw to the sheath prolongation, an electronic temperature monitoring device, to be powered, by converting thermal energy into electrical energy by the parasitic exploitation of temperature differences generated between the hot terminal of the container and the cold terminal of the heat dissipating metal mass, and to activate a piezoelectric buzzer or LEDs, to indicate preset safety temperature limits, the electronic temperature monitoring device and the cold terminal being located in the interior of said handle recesses.
