CULINARYDEVIOE.
sPncIFIcATIoN forming part of Letters Patent No. 740,384, dated october e, 1903. Application filed February 5., 1903. Serial No. 1122.047. (No model.)
To all 1012.071?, it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM H. BARNES,
--lof Rochester, in the county of Monroe and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Culinary Devices; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of thisI specication, and to the reference-numerals marked thereon.y i
Mypresent invention reiatesto culinary debroiling meats or iish or for toasting bread or the like; and it has for its object to providea device in which the handle may be held above the fire or source of heat, while the support for the material to be broiled or toasted is so arranged that it is heldin a horizontal plane whichever side is uppermost, thereby permitting all portions to besubjected to the action of the heat evenly throughout.
My invention has for its further objectto provide a hood or attachment that may be employed in connection with said device to facilitate its use with the ordinary and usualv form of cooking-stoves, whereby it may be employed without interfering with the fire and the smoke and fumes arising therefrom conducted into the chimney.
To these and other endsA my invention consists in certain improvements and combinations of parts, all as will be fully described, and the novel features pointed out in the claims at the end of the specidcation.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a device constructed in accordance with my invention. Fig. 2 is a similar view of the broiling-chamber employed in connection therewith. Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view through a portion of a stove, illustrating the operation of my invention. Similar reference-numerals in the several figures indicate similar parts. v
A device constructed in accordance with my invention is adapted to be used with the usual or any preferred form of cooking-stove, and in the illustrations I have shown the latter as embodying a top section 1, provided with an aperture arranged above the tire-pot 2. Thisapertureis normallyclosedbymeans of a section 3, which rests upon a step or flange 4. and is provided with the usual centercasting and covers. The top section 3 may be pivotally attached at one side tothe stovetop and adapted to be held in the open position by means of an arm or bar 7.
8 indicates a convenient operating-handle arranged at the edge of the section. This arrangement of the parts of the stove provides Van enlarged aperture through which the broiling or toasting operation may be performed. v
The broiling device embodies two parallel gridirons or frames 9, constructed of wire or similar material and formingthe usualf rames, connected at their rear ends by links i0, andA which are adapted to support between them the meat, fish, bread,'or like material. The
\ forward ends of the gridirons are loosely pivoted or joined to the ends of the supporting frames or handles 1l and 1 2,which extend over them and are pivoted at 13, as shown. The upper handle l1 crosses the lower one l2 at the pivotal point, and beyond the latter the handles are arranged to `diverge slightly, whereby as they are drawn together when grasped by the operators hand they will operate to force the forward ends of the gridirons 9 toward each other, causing the latter to iirmly engage the material arranged between them. An offset is provided in each handle, as indicated by 14, and Vextending in the plane thereof, so that the gridirons are permitted a slight rotarymovement at their rear ends when in the closed or parallel position. These olset portions extend for a sufficient distance at each side of the pivot I3 so that the outer end of the lower arm when the device" is vheld in the normaiposition will extend in plane substantially parallel with the surface of the fire, and the gridirons being permitted a movement thereonA will gravitate into contact therewith, thus permitting the material to be broiled or toasted to be. submitted to an even temperature' over its entire surface.
When a broiling operation is performed over a coal tire with the top of the stove open, the intensity of the tire is soon decreased, and to avoid this inconvenience, as well as to prevent the escape of smoke or fumes into the room, I may employ a broiling-chamber in the form of a hood or cover adapted to be used in connection with the device before described. In the present illustration I have shown the hood adapted to inclose the aperture in the stove-top 1, consisting of a frame 15, adapted to be supported in said aperture. Extending above the frame 15 is a curved semicircular top, one portion of which (indicated by 16) is provided with the ends 17, and the other portion 18, having the ends 19, is pivoted, as indicated at 20, and adapted to rotate within the section 16, as will be understood, a small handle 2l being provided for this purpose. Dependingfrom the lower side of the hood are bars or supports 22, pivotally connected to ears or lugs 23 on the framel, which extends in proximity to the tire and serves as a support for the broiler, as shown in Fig. 2.
A device such as I have described is simple and may be constructed cheaply. By the arrangement of the parts which Iemploy the gridirons are held in engagement by the pressure on the handles or supports, and means for attaching or locking them in the closed position are unnecessary, and by permitting the gridirons to revolve between the handles the device may be conveniently operated through the top of the stove and held in proximity to t-he tire.
I do not claim herein the broiling-chamber or hood which I have shown and described,
as this feature of my invention is reserved to form the subject-matter of a subsequent application.
I claim as my invention- 1. The combination with two gridirons, of separate handles pivotally attached to each gridiron and to each other and a hinge connection between the gridirons.
2. The combination with two handles journaled together, of gridirons arranged between the handles and attached thereto and a hinge connection between the gridirons arranged between the ends of the handles andv their point of connection.
3. The combination with two handles journaled together and provided with offset portions between their outer ends and the journal, of gridirons pivotally connected to the arms and extending toward the journal and hinge connections between the gridirons.
4. The combination with two handles crossing each other and pivoted together and provided with oiset portionsextendiug in the plane of the handles and arranged between the ends of the latter and their pivotal point, of gridirons arranged between the handles and pivotally attached thereto and connections between the gridirons.
WILLIAM H. BARNES.
