FRED A. FRYE, OF AZUSA, CALIFORNIA.
DEVICE FOR SUPPORTING UTENSILS OVER CAMP FILRES.
Application 1ed. October 8, 1921 Serial No. 506,428.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, FRED A. FRYE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Azusa, in the county of Los Angeles, and State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Devices for Supporting Utensils over Camp Fires, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a device for supporting utensils over camp fires, and the object is to provide a standard, the lower end of which may be forced into the ground, and suitable devices being carried by the standard for supporting such cooking utensils as are customarily employed in preparing meals over a campfire.
A further object is to provide means for supporting such utensils in position so that they may be directly over the flame or coals, and in the path of the currents of heated aironly a small fire being required for cooking the contents of the several receptacles or utensils.
A still further object is to provide particular means for supporting a frying pan `or the like, an adjustable arm for supporting a kettle, and other devices serving the purpose indicated below.
A still further object is to provide a device which shall be light in weight, and therefore readily carried even in the pocket of a coat, and one in which the elements are foldable or collapsible.
With the foregoing and other objects in view, the invention consists in the novel construction and arrangement of elements described and claimed, it being understood that modifications may be made within the scope of the claims, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the drawings, Figure 1 shows the device in side elevation, a bucket being illustrated in dotted lines at the left, and a pan appearing on a supporting element at the right; Figure 2 shows the structure of Figure 1 in elevation. from another angle, the utensils being omitted; Figure 3 is a top plan view showing especially the elements forming the shelf of Figure l; Figures 4 and 5 are views in elevation, showing the device folded.
The standard 1() may be formed of angle iron, that is of a section of an angle bar, the flanges at the lower end being beveled as shown at l1 and 12, in order that the standard may readily be forced into the ground.
Pivotally connected with the standard at the point 14 is an upwardly extending bar 14', having its upper end deflected or bent into the form of a. hook 16, permitting a kettle or other utensils to be supported therefrom.
Two flat bars 18 and 19 are pivotally connected at 9.0 with bar 14, and these bars 18 and 19 are provided with notches 22 on their lower edges. These bars, which extend laterally, diverge as shown, being spaced apart a distance equal to the width of one of the flanges of the angle bar. Connected with said angle bar near its upper end is a transverse element constituting a plate 2d which engages the aforesaid notches in the bars 18 and 19, thereby forming a type of locking device for retaining the bar 1d and bars 18 and 19 in proper relation relative to the Standard 10.
Rigidly connected with the bar 14 near the upper' end thereof is a short arm 25 projecting in an inclined direction with reference to the har 145, and provided at its upper end with a hook 26 for supporting a kettle or other utensil.
A bar 27 is pivotally connected at 28 with the bar 11 and normally extends outwardly therefrom, but is foldable with reference to the bar 14, as are alsothe arms 18 and 19. This bar 27 is provided with a hook 2S near its outer end, for supporting` any suitable utensil, and the shorter end of the arm 27 is connected by means of a hook 30 with one of the notched portions 31 or 32 of the bar 1d. The arni 27 is therefore adjustable and may be retained at different angles.
That is claimed is:
I 1. In a device of the class described. a standard, an element connected therewith, and foldable with reference to the standard.y a foldable arm connected with said element and including a device for supporting a utensilll means for retaining the said arm in a plurality of positions with reference to said element, a member pvoted to the element connected with the standard and projecting from the standard on the side opposite to that in which the utensil is snpported7 and means on the standard for engaging the member so projecting.
2. In a devine of the class described, sul porting means lflcludng` a transverse element mounted near the upper end of said 10 means, an element pivoted to the support? ing means, notched arms pvoted to said element, the notched portions being adapted to engage the transverse element when the arms are in an approximately horizontal position and said arms being held n dvergng relation when so engaged.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
FRED A. FRYE.
