SWINGING COOKER Filed Dec. 17, 1947 IN V EN TOR. 650/265 0. JENSlE V ATTORNEY Patented Aug. 29, 1950 UNITED STATES PATENT @FFICE 2,520,412 SWINGING cookies George G. Jensen, Port Orchard, Wash. Application December 17, i947, Serial No. 792,128 4 Claims. (o1. iii-191) This invention relates to cooking apparatus for ships and particularly to adjustable devices therefor.
In the practice of cooking in galleys it is important that the cookers or stoves shall remain horizontal while the ship pitches or rolls. It
particularly important that the top surfaces of the cookers shall be suspended for swinging against the movements of the ship and that such top surfaces shall extend forwardly from the supporting means to enable the operator to use cooking utensils with handles extended laterally therefrom without interference from the support" ing means. It is further important that the assembled apparatus may be folded against tle side of a galley to provide space therein, and that the stove may be easily disassembled for use in cooking on the shore.
It is therefore an object of this invention to provide an apparatus of relatively few parts to meet the foregoing requirements. It is a further object to provide a cooking apparatus which may be supported from the sidewall of a galley adapted to'be swung" against the wall when not needed for cooking and adapted to be swung outward from the wall for cooking purposes and provided with rotary supports vertically disposed therefor and horizontally disposed adapted to remain horizontal with a stove top when the ship pitches longitudinally or and rolls from side to side. And particularly to provide a stove top and support therefor extended outward from the supporting means for disposition of cooking utensils thereon in free relation from supporting means to avoid upsetting thereby.
With these and other objects to be hereinafter stated I have illustratively exemplified my invention by the accompanying drawings of which:
Figure 1 is a vertical side elevation of the assembled apparatus attached to leaning portion of a galley wall with a supporting yoke and gimbal ring extended beyond the yoke in horizontal position with a cooker suspended therewith, Figure 2 is a top plan of the apparatus; and Figure 3 is a detail perspective view of a gimbal ring in re duced dimensions.
Like characters on the different figures represent like parts. The letter A indicates a fractional part of a side wall or bulkhead of a galley in a leaning position similar to that caused by the rolling of the ship to the port side, or to the left. A bracket plate 4 is attached to the wall by bolts or screws 4 and a tubular socket is vertically attached to the front of the plate. A post 6 is rotatably mounted in the socket adapted to swing sidewise. An elbow 8 is carried on the top of the post from which a side arm 9 is projected at right angles to thepost, and rotatably mounted on the armis a sleeve In from which side arms 5 !'--i! are extended on the same plane with the sleeve. A set screw i2 is preferably provided for retaining the sleeve loosely upon the arm, but is easily removed for disassembling or removing the yoke, p
The outer ends of the arms carry cradles I3 for rotatable support of pintles l5 which are extended from opposite sides of a gimbal ring it for which the yoke is designed. With this arrangement the top of the ring will remain level when the ship rolls sidewise. Dependent from the sides of the ring are straps it having a series of notches I? along the edges thereof for sup porting the top rim for a stove. This rim car-1 ifies lugs extended outwardly therefrom Which fit into the notchesfor holding or supporting the top of the stove in varying distances below the ring as may be desired When a cooking utensil is positioneddirectly upon the ring. A suitable cooking utensil is indicated by dotted lines B,
with a handle C extended horizontally therefrom,
which is rested within the ring upon the rim.
The rim I3 or top of the stove is preferably provided with grate bars 29 for supporting a small utensil or one indicated by B. Legs 2! are extended downward below the rim which carry any conventional oil or fuel tank 22 with a burner element 23 or stove supplied by a vapor tube 23'. An ordinary filler cap 24 is shown for the tank. The weight of the gimbal ring and the stove causes the same to swing or remain pendulum like when the ship rolls sidewise or pitches longitudinally. In the latter case the sleeve from the yoke rotates upon the arm.
With this construction the outer half or area of the gimbal ring and also of a stove rim extend forward beyond the cradles, providing supporting means for the cooking utensils free from all disturbance by the supporting means when the ship rolls. It will be understood that where supporting means would project around the outer edge of the gimbal ring that the supporting means would contact with an extended handle from the utensil and upset the same when the vessel rolls to the left as shown in Figure 1.
With this construction it will be seen that the apparatus may be used for cooking in a small galley when the yoke is extended from the wall,
or may .be folded up alongside the wall, and when used for cooking the gimbal plate and stove will remain horizontal when the ship 3 pitches and rolls, and utensils over the ring may be used without danger of upsetting. It will also be understood that all the parts of the apparatus are easily assembled and disassembled without the use of any special tools therefor.
Having described my invention I claim as new for Letters Patent:
1. A device of the character described, comprising, a bracket arm for attachment to a longitudinal ship wall for extension at right angles therewith, a sleeve rotatably connected to the extended end of the arm to roll thereon when the arm is rotated, by the pitching of the ship longitudinally, a pair of bars affixed to the outer end of the sleeve and extended forwardly therefrom in spaced relation from each other for a yoke, cradles on the outer ends of the yoke arms to support pintles, a gimbal rin having pintles extended laterally from each side thereof and rotatably supported in said cradles, to facilitate horizontal position of the ring when the ship rolls laterally, straps depending from and below the ring havin notches along the edges thereof for supporting the top of a stove at various distances below the ring, a top rim of a stove having lugs extended laterally therefrom for adjustment within the notches for supporting the stove, the forward portions of said ring and rim bein extended outward laterally beyond the ends of the yoke for supporting cooking utensils having handles thereon in spaced relation beyond the yoke to prevent the upsetting of the utensil when the ship rolls.
2. A device of the class described, including a bracket for attachment to side wall of a ship galley, a post rotatably supported by the bracket, an arm extended from top of the post at right angles therewith adapted to be swung outward to support a stove and adapted to be swung laterally toward the wall to provide space in the galley, a pair of yoke bars spaced apart and rotatably connected on the arm and extended outward on same lane therewith, and adapted to remain parallel horizontally when the ship pitches longitudinally, cradles open at the top on the extremities of the yoke arms, a gimbal ring having pintles extended from opposite sides thereof, said pintles being pivotally disposed in the cradles for supporting the ring to facilitate 5 continued horizontal position of the ring for supporting cooking utensils thereon horizontally, When the ship rolls, the outer half of said ring being extended as above described horizontally outward beyond the cradles to support and maintain such utensils having handles extended laterally therefrom in free relation from the yoke arms and prevent the tipping of the utensils when the ship rolls.
3. Structure described in claim 2, together with straps depending from the sides of the ring, having notches along one ed e of each thereof, a stove having a top rim provided with lugs extended laterally therefrom for easy assembly in the notches for supporting the stove beneath the ring and for easy removal of the stove for use elsewhere.
4. A device for cooking in a ship galley, cornprising a bracket arm and sleeve rotatably mounted thereon for supporting a yoke from the galley wall in pivotal relation therewith, a yoke having cradles on the outer ends thereof for supporting a gimbal ring and stove horizontally when the ship pitches, a gimbal ring pivotally connected to the cradles adapted to swing laterally when the ship rolls, said gimbal ring having the front portion thereof extended forwardly beyond the yoke, for supporting a relatively long handled cookin utensil thereon.
