FIG. 1 is an isometric view of a pasta cooker in an operative position showing my new design with an basket fitted on a base;
FIG. 2 is an exploded isometric view of the pasta cooker in an open position thereof with the basket off the base;
FIG. 3 is a top plan view of the pasta cooker in the operative position of FIG. 1 thereof showing a topside of the basket with an aperture pattern, which aperture pattern is symmetric to a corresponding aperture pattern in the underside of the basket;
FIG. 4 is an enlarged bottom plan view of the pasta cooker in the operative position of FIG. 1 thereof;
FIG. 5 is an enlarged left side elevation view of the pasta cooker in the operative position of FIG. 1 with the left side elevation view being symmetric to a right side elevation view thereof;
FIG. 6 is an enlarged front elevation view of the pasta cooker in the operative position of FIG. 1 thereof, with the front elevation view being symmetric to a rear elevation view thereof; and,
FIG. 7 is an enlarged widthwise cross-sectional view of the pasta cooker in the operative position of FIG. 1 thereof that is taken midway widthwise across section lines 7-7 of FIG. 5.
The underside of the basket is flat and normally hidden from view in the operative position of FIG. 1. An entirety of a topside of the bottom of the base is flat, plain and unornamented in the manner partially shown in FIG. 2. The base has a wall that is plain and unornamented and has curvature along its entirety in the manner partially shown in FIG. 2. The curvature of the inside surface of the wall includes convex curvature along entireties of each of the two ends of the wall and concave curvature along entireties of each of the elongated portions of the wall that extends between the two ends.
