Claim 3

A device according to claim 1, wherein said body has a hollow cavity said cavity being filled with a material having substantially the same density as the average uncooked egg.

Claim 4

A device according to claim 2, wherein said cavity is filled with a solid material.

Claim 5

A device according to claim 2, wherein said cavity is filled with a liquid.

Claim 6

An egg temperature indicating device adapted to stand in a cooking pan of water containing at least one cooking egg and which comprises a body having the same general shape and of a material selected to have substantially the same density as the average uncooked egg, and a thermometer having a bulb containing temperature indicating liquid, and a shaft marked with temperature gradations along its entire length extending vertically from and integral with said bulb, said bulb being generally centrally located in a cavity in said body, said shaft of said thermometer in turn vertically projecting from said body so that said temperature gradations may be observable and the cooked egg immediately removed at a predetermined temperature, wherein said cavity is filled with a solid material and wherein said body of said device has an upper portion and an underside portion, a plurality of legs being provided extending from said undesired portion so that said device is adapted to stand.

Claim 7

An egg temperature indicating device adapted to stand in a cooking pan of water containing at least one cooking egg and which comprises a body having the same general shape and of a material selected to have substantially the same density as the average uncooked egg, and a thermometer having a bulb containing temperature indicating liquid, and a shaft marked with temperature gradations along its entire length extending vertically from and integral with said bulb, said bulb being generally centrally located in a cavity in said body, said shaft of said thermometer in turn vertically projecting from said body so that said temperature gradations may be observable and the cooked egg immediately removed at a predetermined temperature, wherein said cavity is filled with a solid material and wherein said body of said device has an upper portion and an underside portion, a plurality of legs being provided extending from said undesired portion so that said device is adapted to stand.

Claim 8

A device according to claim 5, wherein said shaft of said thermometer projects from the upper portion of said body a distance of about one-half its length above the rim of the cooking pan.

Claim 9
