A timer-thermal shutoff apparatus can control and protect an electrical appliance. The timer-thermal shutoff apparatus comprises a housing; male connector extending from the housing; female receptacle to receive a male connector from one or more electrical appliances; timer device; and thermal safety device. The timer device and thermal safety device are connected in series with the male connector and female connector receptacle to form a current path. The electrical appliance is in series with the timer device and thermal safety device. The timer device can control off-on switching and cycles for the electrical apparatus connected to the timer-thermal shutoff apparatus, and the thermal safety device providing thermal overload protection if at least one of the timer-thermal shutoff apparatus and electrical appliance reach a temperature so the thermal safety device opens the current path to protect at least one of the timer-thermal shutoff apparatus and electrical appliance.

1. A timer-thermal-overload shutoff apparatus for controlling and protecting at least one electrical appliance, the timer-thermal-overload shutoff apparatus comprising:a housing; at least one male connector extending from the housing; at least one female receptacle in the housing, the female receptacle adapted to receive a male connector from one or more electrical appliances; at least one timer device; a high current protection device that can provide protection for the electrical appliance and close current flow to the at least one electrical appliance; and at least one thermal safety device, wherein the at least one timer device, high current protection device, and at least one thermal safety device are connected in series with the at least one male connector and the at least one female connector receptacle to form a current path, so an electrical appliance that is connected into the at least one female receptacle connector is in series with the at least one timer device, high current protection device, and the at least one thermal safety device; the at least one timer device being able to be set for controlling off-on switching and on-off cycles for the electrical apparatus connected to the timer-thermal shutoff apparatus, the thermal safety device providing thermal overload protection if at least one of the timer-thermal shutoff apparatus and the electrical appliance reach a temperature so the thermal safety device opens the current path through the timer-thermal shutoff apparatus to protect at least one of the timer-thermal-overload shutoff apparatus and electrical appliance; and the high current protection device that can provide further protection for the electrical appliance and close current flow to the at least one electrical appliance.
