Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an electric cooktop safety system. More particularly, the electric cooktop safety system pertains to safety cookware vessels having special fastening components that secure these safety cookware vessels to an electric cooktop, preventing a user from accidentally tipping or pulling off the safety cookware vessels from the electric cooktop. In one implementation, the fastening components may include a safety stem having keyed members and stem locking members disposed on a safety cooktop to secure the safety cookware vessel to the safety cooktop. In another implementation, the fastening components may include electro-magnetic fastening components to secure the safety cookware vessel to the safety cooktop.

An electric cooktop safety system comprising:
- a safety cooking vessel having a safety stem coupled to a bottom portion of the safety cooking vessel, wherein the safety stem includes a stem body, a first keyed member disposed along a first end of the stem body, and a second keyed member disposed along a second end of the stem body;
- and
- a safety cooktop of an electric range having a bottom stem locking member disposed within a topside portion of the safety cooktop, wherein the second keyed member is detachably coupled to the bottom stem locking member, preventing the safety cooking vessel from tipping over when the second keyed member is fastened to the bottom stem locking member.
A safety cooking vessel for cooking food on an electric range comprising:
- a cooking body having at least a cookware surface, a bottom portion, and a handle;
- a safety stem coupled to the bottom portion of the cooking body, wherein the safety stem includes a stem body, a first keyed member disposed along a first end of the stem body, and a second keyed member disposed along a second end of the stem body, wherein the second keyed member engages with a bottom stem locking member configured to be disposed within a safety cooktop of the electric range, preventing the safety cooking vessel from tipping over when the second keyed member is fastened to the bottom stem locking member
- wherein the safety cooking vessel includes a top stem locking member disposed on the bottom portion of the cooking body, wherein the first keyed member is detachably coupled to the top stem locking member.
A safety cooktop of an electric range with a safety cooking vessel comprising:
- a planar cooking surface disposed on a top portion of the electric range;
- a bottom stem locking member disposed within a topside portion of the planar cooking surface, wherein the bottom stem locking member is configured to receive a second keyed member;
- the safety cooking vessel;
- said safety cooking vessel comprising a cooking body having at least a cookware surface, a bottom portion, and a handle;
- a safety stem coupled to the bottom portion of the cooking body, wherein the safety stem includes a stem body, a first keyed member disposed along a first end of the stem body, and the second keyed member disposed along a second end of the stem body, wherein the second keyed member engages with the bottom stem locking member disposed within the safety cooktop of the electric range, preventing the safety cooking vessel from tipping over when the second keyed member is fastened to the bottom stem locking member
- wherein the safety cooking vessel includes a top stem locking member disposed on the bottom portion of the cooking body, wherein the first keyed member is detachably coupled to the top stem locking member.
