COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improved Frying Pan.
We, JOHN HENRY KENDLE, Tobacconist, 55, High Street, Bognor, Sussex, and
ARTHUR WARREN TWIBILL, Insurance Agent, London Road, Bognor, Sussex,
do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is
to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the
following statement;
The object of this invention is an improvement to frying, omelette, saute, pans
and other similar culinary utensils, to prevent the bottom of the pan from being
burnt more on one side than the other, to prevent its liability of upsetting

page_text: from the leverage of the handle by the removal of same, to enable it to be
placed in oven to keep the contents warm, to enable it to be used as a dish and
also to facilitate packing and transport.
For the purpose of our invention we provide a moveable handle which can be
attached or detached while on or off stove or fire and also allows the handle to
be shifted to different positions to suit the person using same. The pan A in
the annexed drawings to be made of metal or any other material is provided
with a rim B of a width suitable to the size of pan either stamped or blocked
out with pan or attached by brazing, rivetting or otherwise, the rim raised to
an angle of about 25 degrees from the edge of the pan and being of sufficient
width to have two or more slots C & D cut therein on opposite sides, with wider
space cut at one end of each slot to admit the stud or bar E fixed on handle
entering the slot freely and sliding along it to desired position, thereby fixing
the handle F firmly on under side of rim B. The construction of handle F is
as follows, it will be made wholly or partly of wrought or cast metal, length
and breadth varying according to size of pan, with one end curved to fit exterior
angle of rim and side of pan, a curved stud or bar with projecting rim at top.
either cast with or rivetted on to handle at a suitable distance from the curved
end so as to permit it entering slots C & D and holding pan firmly, the other
end to have if required a hole whereby to suspend it on rail or hook, the pan
may be provided if desired with a lip for the purpose of pouring out gravy or
other liquids. In the accompanying sheet of illustrative drawings Fig. I. shows
the top of rim attached to pan also two slots cut therein. Fig. II shows bottom
of rim giving approximate angle to which it is to be raised from edge of pan.
Fig. III shows handle with stud or bar fixed and Fig. IV shows stud or bar
partly in section.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that
what we claim is;-
1st. A frying, omelette, saute, pan or other similar culinary utensil admitting
of the use of a detachable handle that can be fixed and used in any position
extending to at least half the circumference of the pan.
2nd. A handle suitable to use with the aforesaid frying, omelette, saute, pan
or other similar culinary utensil.
3rd. A frying, omelette, saute, pan or other similar culinary utensil with
detachable handle constructed substantially as described with reference to the
drawings.
