ZALA A. CHURCE AND WALTER E. THOMAS, or JEFFERSON, IOWA.
FOLDING AUTO AND CAMPER/S STOVE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 15, 1921.
Application filed August 25, 1919. Serial No. 319,771.
To all uihom. it may concem:
Be it known that we. ZALA A. CHUnoH and lVALTER E. THOMAS, each a citizen of the United States of America, and resident oi Jefferson, Greene county, Iowa, have invented a new and useful Folding Auto and Campers Stove, of which the following is a specification.
The object of this invention is to provide improved means for use in. out-door cookil. further object of this invention is to provide an improved construction for autoandcampers stoves adapted for folding on transverse and longitudinal lines for convenience in packing and transportation.
A. further object of this invention is to provide improved telescopic supporting means for a stove plate.
A further object of this invention is to provide improved means for detachably bracing a stove plate to supporting means.
A turther object of this invention is to provide improved means for detachably securing a stove plate to supporting means.
Our invention consists in the construction, arrangement and combination of elements hereinafter set forth, pointed out in the claims and illustrated by the accompanying drawing, in which- Figure 1 is a plan. and Fig. 2 a. side elevation showing our improved device 1pxtended and arranged for practical use. 3 1s a cross-section on an enlarged scale on M of Fig. 1. Fig. 5 of the parts the indicated line 15 a plan on an enlarged scale intersected by the dotted line st'1 in Fig. 1. Fig. 6 1s a vertical. sect-Ion on an en larged scale through the center of the device. illustrating the means for detachably connecting the folding plate to the support.
In the construction of the device as shown the numeral 10 designates a tubular mast or post adapted to receive a stake 11 telescopically, which stake is adapted to be fixed by upright position in the earth. A. head 12', preferably made of relatively thin metal and of circular form, is provided with slots 13 in an annular row concentric with its center and lugs 14 are formed on the upper end of the tubular mast 10, which lugs extend through the slots 13 and are clenched on the upper face of the head. Thus the head is rigidly secured to the mast. The head 12 is formed with a stud 15 centrally arranged and rigidly secured thereon and a washer 16 is loosely mounted on said stud. A cam lever 17, in this instance made of looped wire with outturned perforated ends flattened and en larged in width, is fulcrumed on the stud 15 outside of the washer 16 and is adapted, when closed, to; clamp the washer-rigidly to any device or object which may be interposed between said washer and the head 12 as hereinafter set forth. A series of holes are formed in the mast 10 in an annular row substantially midway in the length of said mast and devices, such braces 18, are mounted in said holes and extend obliquely upward therefrom. End portions of the braces extend I are adapted to be engaged by the upper end of the stake 11 and limit and determine telescoping movement of the stake in the mast in one direction, thus determining the altitude at which the mast, and devices carried thereby are held by the stake. The stove plate is mounted on thejmast, the
central portion of the plate being received.
and clamped between the head 12 and washer l6, and said plate is held and supported additionally by engagement of the outer ends of the braces therewith at points laterally removed from the mast as shown in Fig. 1. The stove plate is composed of a plurality of separate and like sections. in this instance four in number each section occupying substantially one-quarter of the expanse of the complete plate. The several sections of the stove plate are designated generally on the drawing by the letters A, B, C and D. Each section of the stove plate is made with an outer frame 19 of wire, which frame is substantially rectangular in form and endless. Cross-bars 20 and longitudinal bars 21 connect the sides and ends respectively of the frame 19 and the ends of said bars may be connected in any desired manner to the frame; but a metal clip is provided and shown for such purpose. The metal clip is designated by the numeral 22 and is folded and pressed in such manner as to embrace the frame and also to embrace an end of a. bar at right angles to and abutting the embraced frame. Some of the bars are shown with eyes on their ends embracing the frame. The bars 20 and 21 are shown interwoven and such arrangement is deemed preferable;
within the mast and portion of the lOO " (Fig, 3) is'formed Withan metal in order-that ,made therefor.
spaced providin centrally of the extended plate when the yet some other means of connection may be employed, such as electric; Welding at the points of crossing of the bars Without interweaving, Whichmeans of connection is common and Well known and no claim is Some of the adjacent sections of the plate, such as AC, C-D and are means of metal hinge-clips 23 embracing pivotally adjacent and parallel portions of frames 19.. Because of the hingingtogether of sections as stated, one section may be folded on another and the two together on the other two,rso that the plate may occupy a space or area ofsubstantiallyone-quarter that of the extended plate, for packing and transportation, after said plate is released from the mast. The corners of the frames 19 are rounded, and said framesare slightly apart by the hinge-clips 23, thus vide detachable connections between the sections A (and B, and when detached permit folding of said sections upon the, sections C and D respectively, by movement in opposite directions, after. which the sections AC may be folded upon the sections B-D, thus reducing each. of the greater di mensions of the grid by, one-halt; The hook-clips 24 preferably are made of spring the hooks thereof may spring over theframe members engaged thereby. Thehook-chps 2e are moved through arcs to and from latching positions after the sections A, B, C and i)- are extended in the same plane manually. lNhen in the positions shown, the hook-clips 21$. connect the sections A and B and tend to holdthe stove-plate in extended horizontal position preliminary to locking of the plate between the head 12 and washer 16. After the plate is locked to the mast, and thehoolcclips, 24 placed in latching positiomrthe braces 18 are placed as shoWnto uphold the laterally-extending portions of the stove plate. Thesections may be. made of desired size and strength of material, so to accommodate cooking utensils throughout its area and support them safely during theoperation or" cooking with a tire laid bepivotally connected together by :mast, a stake therefor, a

neath the stove plate. The mesh of the stove plate or grid may be varied as desired and bars or Wires of different diameters may be employed so that the plate or any part of it may be used for broiling meat or toasting bread in addition to supporting 7 cooking utensils.
We do not desire to be limited to the details of construction and materials described, as the same may be modified in many vparticulars Without departing from our invention.
We claim as our invention 1. A folding auto andcampers stove. comprising a central mast, a stake therefor, a sectional stove plate mounted on the upper end of the mast, means for hinging together sections of said plate on lines intersecting each other at right angles diametrically of the mast, and braces connecting said plate sections and mast circumferentially of the mast, the outer end portions of said braces being arranged substantially midway between the mast and a circle'intersecting corners oftheplate.
2. A folding auto and -campers stove,
comprising a central mast, a stake telescop mg relatlve to said mast, a stove plate .mounted on the upper end of said mast, and
braces connecting said plate and mast circumferentially of the mast, end portionsot said bracespenetrating the mast and servingas a stop for the stake.
3. In a campers. sectional stove, the 00111 bination with a sectional stove plate ota mast, a stake therefor, ahead on said mast, a stud on said head extending through said plate, a Washer adaptedto be loosely mount ed on said stud and overlie the separate"sec tions of said plate, a cam lever fulcrumed on said stud and adapted to clamp 'sai-d' Washer to said plate and thereby apply pressure to the sections axially of said mast, and braces detachably connecting the mast and plate circumferentially of-the mast.
t. In a campers sectional stove, the combination with a. sectional stove plate oin head onv said mast. a stud on said headextending through said plate, means for clamping said plate to said head and thereby applying pressure to the separate sections thereof axially of said mast, and removable means connecting the mast and plate circumferentially of the .mast.
