Patent attributes
A pan holder includes a base plate, a handle, and a wrist support. The base plate has an interior surface and an exterior surface. The handle includes a first arc-shaped wall mounted to the exterior surface of the base plate. The first arc-shaped wall is sized to fit and rest within a palm of a hand when the pan holder is used. The wrist support includes a second arc-shaped wall mounted to the exterior surface to extend perpendicularly from the exterior surface. A minimum distance between the first arc-shaped wall and the second arc-shaped wall is selected to accommodate a thumb-wrist portion of the hand. The second arc-shaped wall is curved when projected into a first plane defined by the exterior surface. The second arc-shaped wall is concave relative to a second plane that extends through a lengthwise center of the handle and is perpendicular to the first plane.
