Abstract: The present invention relates to an oven that includes, in an exemplary embodiment, a cooking cavity assembly, a controller, a halogen lamp and fan assembly, and a vent assembly. The halogen lamp and fan assembly, sometimes referred to herein as a convection module, includes one or more halogen lamps and a fan for circulating heat from the lamps into the cooking cavity. The oven can be operated in two modes, namely, thermal emulation and customized cooking. In the thermal emulation mode, the oven is pre-heated to a target temperature by lamps cycling on and off under the control of the controller. Once the target temperature is reached, the user places the food into the cooking cavity and the food is cooked for the same amount of time as in a conventional thermal oven. In the customized cooking mode, food is placed in cooking cavity for the entire cooking cycle, including pre--heat.
Patent CA-2369034-C (CA)

Abstract: A reclining device including a recess formed as a low-rigidity portion in a lateral portion of each of slide pawls which faces a lateral wall surface of a guide groove of a stationary disc (the lateral wall surface of a bearing wall portion). The stationary disc holds the slide pawls. If an enormous circumferential turning force is applied to the slide pawls from a ratchet, the recess functions as a point upon which a pawl body of each of the slide pawls is deflected in the direction in which the turning force is applied. As a result, the pawl body quickly sinks into the lateral wall surface of the bearing wall portion.  Thus, the slide pawls are prevented from moving away from the ratchet.
