Furthermore, individual features or combinations of features from the different exemplary embodiments shown and described can also represent independent, inventive or inventive solutions.

In Fig. 1, a preferably portable receptacle 1 is shown, which may be formed in the manner of a carrying container, for example as a carrying case 2 with carrying handles 3. In a suitably sealed interior 4 of the receptacle 1 is a combustible material 5, e.g. Coal, preferably charcoal arranged. On a footprint 6 of the receptacle 1, an auxiliary fuel 7 is arranged in this embodiment on the side facing away from the interior 4 outside. This auxiliary fuel 7 is formed by a wood material 8, for example, by strips of solid wood or pressed wood fibers, optionally bound via binder or the like. In the field of additional fuel 7, which may be formed in the manner of a grate 9, means for supplying and / or distribution of combustion air - indicated schematically by wavy arrows 10 - provided. These means may be formed by channels 11, recesses, openings, apertures or the like. Regardless, it is also possible that the receptacle 1 is provided in the region of its footprint 6 with distributed over these recesses or channels 11 for combustion air supply and / or - distribution. It is also advantageous if the entire receptacle 1, and optionally the additional fuel 7, is sealed dust-tight.

In the region of the grate 9 or of the additional fuel 7, preferably in the region of side walls 12 of the receptacle 1, it is also expedient to arrange an ignition aid 13, for example a firing cube consisting of readily combustible materials or a firing paste or a firing paste. Of course, it is also possible to provide other Zündhilfen 13, such as impregnated with wax wood shavings, sawdust or other highly inflammable materials, and to attach or support the auxiliary fuel 7. N 98/04000 • ♦ ♦ ♦ · · »· 4 · · * > ·····································································.

Essential in this embodiment of the portable receptacle 1 is that both the portable receptacle 1 and the auxiliary fuel 7 consist of combustible materials and that a flash point of at least the additional fuel 7 is lower than the flash point of the combustible material 5 and the coal, the energy release during combustion causes the initiation of the oxidation of the combustible material 5. Conveniently, the flash point of the material of the receptacle 1 is equal to or lower than that of the auxiliary fuel 7, so that the outer envelope of the combustible material 5 immediately after the ignition of the auxiliary fuel 7 also burns and sufficient oxygen or air access to the combustible material 5 during heating by the burnup of the additional fuel 7 is given.

The receptacle 1 may be placed on the auxiliary fuel 7 or be arranged on this and be connected by gluing, stitching or similar attachment methods with this. Of course, it is also possible that instead of the arrangement of the additional fuel 7 on the outside of the footprint 6 of the receptacle 1 forming bottom, the additional fuel 7 inserted before filling the combustible material 5 in the interior 4 in the region of the bottom part and then the combustible Material 5 is arranged distributed on the auxiliary fuel 7 in the interior 4.

Of course, it is also possible to arrange additional fuels 7 in the region of one or more of the side walls 12, and if desired or instead, also in the region of a cover 14, so that the receptacle 1 can be placed in any position in the grill and still a safe Ignition and a safe triggering of the oxidation of the combustible material 5 can be achieved.

As further indicated schematically, it is possible in the side walls 12, and / or in the footprint 6 and / or in the cover 14, if necessary, make openings 15 to achieve an air supply into the interior 4 of the receptacle 1, wherein both the size the opening 15 and their position or distribution with respect to the side walls 12, the footprint 6 and the cover 14 can be chosen freely.

The openings 15 can be produced in that the receptacle 1 can be broken through, for example, can be pierced, or are provided in these openings, which can be exposed by the removal of closure means. This is especially easy to implement, N 98/04000 • * ί · · * ·· ·· • * * # * * »·» · · If the receptacle 1 is made of paper and / or cardboard or a similar material.

Of course, it is within the scope of the invention readily possible, in the interior 4 of the receptacle 1 more layers of additional fuel 7 and combustible material 5, as for example, with dash-dotted lines, to arrange, so that a sandwich-like storage of the layers is formed, ie, that in each case superimposed layers of combustible material 5 are separated from each other by layers of additional fuel 7. By openings to be produced in this way, even if the ignition aid 13 is located in the interior 4 of the receptacle 1, the access to the same can be exposed. An advantageous solution is that an opening tab delimited by weakening lines, for example, can be used after being torn open as a wick or as a starting aid for the ignition aid 13 or for the auxiliary fuel 7. Of course, the tab or attached to this priming in the form of a fuse directly connected to the ignition aid 13 or be poured into this.

One of the possible embodiments is also that the ignition aid 13 may be formed at least by parts of the side walls 12, the footprint 6 and the cover 14.

It is of course also possible that no additional elements forming a grate 9 or the like. Are required to form the additional fuel 7, but it is also possible to form the receptacle 1 such that it itself has a sufficient amount of additional fuel 7 that sufficient heating of the combustible material 5, eg the coal, so that the oxidation of the coal can be initiated or started.

For this purpose, it is also possible that, for example, the receptacle 1 may consist of a molding of Holzpreßmaterialien or Faserpreßmaterialien or a composite material of wood material and cardboard or paper.

The carrying handles 3 can either be attached to the receiving container 1, preferably opposite the additional fuel 7. But it is also possible that the carrying handles 3 extend into the area of the additional fuel 7 or the ignition aid 13. In the latter case, the carrying handle 3 can then preferably be designed or used as an ignition aid for the ignition aid 13.

2 and 3, a grill device 16 is shown, in which at least one fuel insert 17, consisting of a portable and combustible and filled with combustible material 5 receptacle 1, is arranged.

Each of the fuel inserts 17 is provided with at least one carrying handle 3, so that it can be easily inserted into a combustion trough 18 of the grill device 16. The fuel insert or inserts 17 is associated with an additional fuel 7, which forms a pad or footprint for the receptacle 1, and channels 11 for combustion air supply and distribution has. The flash point of this additional fuel 7 is lower than the flash point of the combustible material 5, which is filled in the fuel inserts 17 and receptacles 1. The fuel inserts 17 are preferably formed dustproof or provided with a dust-tight envelope, which is only immediately before or after insertion into the combustion trough 18 of the grill device 16, is removed. It has proven to be advantageous when the auxiliary fuel 7 is connected to the receptacle 1, and thus forms the fuel insert 17.

In the simplest case, the additional fuel 7 may be formed by a grid made of wood. This is formed from at least two layers of intersecting, superimposed wooden rods, which form the channels 11 between the wooden rods. In this area, an ignition aid 13 may also be provided or connected to it. Preferably, the fuel insert 17, or the receptacle 1, and the additional fuel 7 form separate packaging units.

Then, when the auxiliary fuel 7 forms a separate part from the fuel insert 17, this is preferably prepared as a combustible grate 9 made of wood material, so that, as already explained above, through this grate 9, the channels 11 are formed for combustion air supply and distribution. The combustible grate 9 is integrally formed as a coherent transport unit. Furthermore, this combustible grate 9 is provided with a support for a fuel insert 17 with the combustible material 5, in particular charcoal.

But it is also a variant possible, in which the combustible grate 9 is formed by a pressing part of wood fibers or wood parts with openings or recesses. Preferably, this grate 9 is formed by a spatially shaped component. In such a component, the Anzündhilfe or ignition aid 13 miteingebaut or be integrated into this.

Of course, it is also conceivable that the packaging unit, consisting of the fuel insert 17 and the combustible grate 9, also includes an ash tray. This ash collecting tray must be made of a temperature-resistant material, for example of a steel sheet or an aluminum sheet, and be formed in the form of a shell or a tub. The temperature resistance of the material must be chosen so high in all cases that the shell can be used to hold the ash or embers.

4, a grill support 19 for a grill device 16 is shown. This grill support 19 consists of a plurality of mutually parallel, adjacent grate bars 20, which are arranged one above the other in several levels 21,22. The grate bars 20 in the lower level 21 here are opposite to the grate bars 20 in the other plane 22 offset from each other so that longitudinal side edges 23 of mutually immediately adjacent grate bars 20 in the plane 22 have a transverse distance 24 to each other, which is smaller than a total width 25 of a individual associated with this grate bar 20 in the plane 21st

In this case, the plane 22 is arranged in a vertical direction above the plane 21. Furthermore, the grate bars 20 in the lower plane 21 in the direction of the plane 22 open channels 26 from.

The plane 21 is inclined here relative to the plane 22, so that the grooves 26 have a slope, wherein the lower ends 27, a collecting channel 28 may be associated. Of course, it is also possible that the grooves 26 are inclined in different, for example, opposite directions, and each of the lower stimuli 27 is assigned its own collection channel 28.

Preferably, the grate bars 20 are formed in both planes 21, 22 as Pröfilstäbe, and preferably have a V, U, C-shaped or other kind, suitable cross-section.

The advantage of this solution is that by the overlap of the individual grate bars 20, in particular their longitudinal side edges 23, which can not drip from the grilled products emerging juice or the fat applied to these in the embers or flames, but collected and can be separated. This prevents the formation of carcinogenic substances that are harmful to health.

For the sake of order, it should finally be pointed out that, for a better understanding of the construction of the receiving container 1, additional fuel 7, in particular the grate 9, and the N 98/04000. · «Φ · φ« * ♦ * φ φ φ φ φ φ -8-
