LU86399A1 - REMOVABLE BARBECUE - Google Patents

Description

-, 1 *

The present invention relates to a removable barbecue, the elements of which are made by molding in concrete, can be assembled by simple sliding and interlocking and are kept mounted by a pair of metal rods.

5 The elements of this barbecue are: - a couple of feet - a horizontal tray resting on these feet - at least a couple of vertical side partitions having horizontal grooves for the positioning of the grill - a vertical bottom fitting on the heels of the side partitions.

Each of these elements can itself be subdivided to obtain the overall shapes and dimensions of the barbecue.

15 On the horizontal plate are distributed the elements of a refractory assembly delimiting the hearth receiving the charcoal, and ensuring the circulation of the draft air.

An essential characteristic of this construction is that all of these elements can be obtained in a single molding, that is to say in a single concrete mold, which facilitates its handling and transport. Another essential characteristic is the rapid assembly and disassembly method without any tools. Finally, another characteristic is the efficiency of its operation, thanks to the appropriate forms of various elements.

The accompanying drawing illustrates in exploded views the components of this barbecue. In this drawing: - Figure 1 shows the concrete elements, - Figure 2 shows the elements of the refractory assembly and, - Figure 3 is a partial section illustrating the assembly of the bottom and a side wall.

The barbecue according to the invention consists of two legs 1-1 ', identical to each other, namely having recesses 2, for various uses, for example for receiving bottles, said recesses of one foot facing those of the other ; a horizontal plate, represented here in three elements 3-3'-3 ", resting one behind the other on the feet 1-1 ', also hollowed out in 4 and provided with lower grooves 5 for their positioning on feet 1-1 '; of side partitions 2

vertical 6a-6b-6c and 6'a-6'b-6'c, positioned in upper grooves 7 of elements 3-3'-3 '', and which will be described in more detail below; and finally a vertical bottom, shown here in two superimposed elements 8a-8b, which will also be described below.

If we consider the elements of side partitions, each, for example 6a, is hollowed out at 9, and has horizontal grooves 10 and a horizontal perforation 11 '.

The successive elements 6a, 6b, 6c are progressively increasing in height from front to rear, and here respectively have 2, 4 and 6 grooves, which allows, the grooves of the elements 6 and of the elements 6 'being made face, adjust the height of a grid (not shown) to six different values. Once in place in the housings 7, the elements 15 6 and 6 ′ are held together by rods 11, and tightened by nuts 12 and 13, locked at their front part by a bar 14.

The bottom 8 is constituted by the two superimposed panels 8a-8b. These panels have notches 15 serving as 20 slides at edges 16 of the rear of partitions 6c-6c ’.

Referring now to FIG. 2, it can be seen that the set of refractory elements consists of perforated horizontal plates 17 surrounded by bricks on their four sides, corresponding to the surface of the plate 3 25 delimited by the side partitions 6, the bottom 8 and the bar 14.

The latter serves to hold the refractory elements 20 which retain the ashes on the front of the grid. The side bricks 18 serve to insulate the side partitions. The bottom bricks 19 and the front bricks 20 are hollowed out by bridges 21 and 22 to provide ventilation and draft, and at the same time protect the concrete against the thermal shock of the hearth.

The barbecue according to the invention therefore consists of a small number of relatively light elements, which can be marketed in "kit", easy to assemble without any tools, and which can be molded on conventional automatic presses. .

Claims (6)

1. Removable barbecue, characterized in that it is produced by dry assembly of standard elements molded in concrete, namely: - a couple of feet - a horizontal plate resting on these feet 5 - at least a couple of lateral partitions vertical having grooves for the installation of a grid - a vertical bottom fitting onto the rear heels of said side partitions, a set of refractory blocks arranged on the horizontal plate 10 ensuring ventilation of the hearth and its thermal insulation from vertical partitions. 2. Barbecue according to claim 1, characterized in that the horizontal plate is subdivided into several juxtaposed transverse slabs, having on their lower face 15 grooves for their positioning on the feet and on their upper faces of other grooves for the positioning of the side partitions. 3. Barbecue according to claim 1, characterized in that each lateral partition is made up of sections juxtaposed one behind the other and of increasing height, the number of mounting grooves of the grid being a function of the height of the section , the grooves of the successive sections being in line with one another. 3 ^ \ i * 4. Barbecue according to claim 1 characterized in that the bottom consists of two superimposed panels each having at its ends grooves coming to cooperate with rebates provided on the edge of the highest section of the side partitions. 5. Barbecue according to claims 1,3 and 4, characterized in that the sections constituting each lateral partition are held together by a rod passing through them from end to end and the rear end of which is concealed in the assembly with 35 4 <the back panel. 6. Barbecue according to claims 1 λ 5, characterized in that the refractory elements comprise bridges and perforations ensuring the circulation of air at the level of the 5 concrete elements, to protect the latter from the thermal shock of the hearth, and ensure a homogeneous combination over the entire surface of the fireplace. 10 15
