We are pleased to announce that Oliver & Grimsley, LLC successfully secured U.S. Patent No. 9,220,307 entitled, “Dual-Use Clingable Handcovering for Protecting the Hand of Wearer from the Atmospheric Conditions in the Surrounding Environment”.  The invention relates to a handcovering typically worn by an individual who is running for exercise in non-ideal atmospheric conditions, in order to keep warm and make time outdoors more comfortable.  Although various styles of gloves and mittens exist on the market, this handcovering is unique in that it encloses all fingers and the entire thumb together in a capped enclosure to assist the individual with maintaining body heat, while allowing the individual to remove the capped portion when use of the individual’s fingers are needed.

Congratulations to Susan Clayton on her recently issued patent!

We are pleased to announce that Oliver & Grimsley, LLC successfully secured U.S. Patent No. 9,220,277 entitled, “Form Insert for Use with a Springform Pan to Make a Uniform Thickness Crust” that proceeded through the patent office in one year and six months, as a prioritized application.

The invention is designed to allow a baker to utilize a baking form in combination with a springform pan to cut and trim excess crust in order to achieve a consistent and substantially uniform thickness crust for a baked good.  Use of the baking form is particularly suited for a baker in making a single or multiple baked goods on a repeated basis.  The uniform crust thickness provides for consistent baking throughout the baked good and also provides for aesthetic visual appeal.
