Description

PORTABLE FOLDING GLASS

The invention refers to a grill device for grilling meat, with the traditional grilling technique in front of the grill or oven (http://www.cretannutrition.gr/wp/?p=5159)

It is a common practice to grill meat using the face-to-face method (a technique found in the mountainous countryside) in different types of grills. The basic principle of all types of grills is that the meat is cooked on spits, after it has first been cut so that it is not too thick and the spit is placed sideways (opposite) from the fire. The spit does not rotate and the meat is first cooked on one side. To complete the cooking, after cooking the meat on one side, the spit should be placed in the opposite direction so that the other side is also cooked.

Typical older technique for baking with this technique are improvised structures, usually from common metal or wood. The spits are made of metal or wood and their two ends rest on stones or other non-burning materials, such as bricks, which are placed around the fire. Another older technique is the use of metal stakes with metal hooks that are nailed into the ground while the spits are placed on the hooks.

Grills such as those described above and especially the improvised ones, require a long time to set up, are bulky, are difficult or even impossible to transport, while many times the grilling result is not the desired one due to the materials used and the irregular, non-standard construction . All the above technical difficulties prevent the widespread use of the technique in question among the general consumer public, distancing them from a traditional and healthy technique of baking antichrist.

According to the embodiment of the present invention, the portable foldable Antichristiera is characterized by a single body consisting of frames with hooks connected to each other by a hinged connection of cylindrical rings. The frames are stainless steel, in a trapezoidal shape, which are connected to each other and on one diagonal side they have hooks for placing the skewers. According to a characteristic of the invention, the hooks are placed at such an angle with respect to the plane of the frame, as to ergonomically and functionally optimize the placement of the spit. According to another feature of the invention the frames are connected together by a hinged connection so that they fold together. According to another characteristic of the invention, the frames are made of stainless steel rod which is bent into the desired trapezoidal shape and between the diagonals of the trapezoidal shape, straight bars (strings) are glued, parallel to the parallel ones of the trapezoidal shape and which strengthen the construction. The number of parallels is usually equal to the number of frame tiers. According to another feature of the invention, the hinged connection can be permanent or fused. Permanent connection is preferred as it makes construction simpler, lighter and more durable. According to another feature of the invention, when the portable folding Antichristiera is set up, the frames form part of a polyhedral pyramid and it stands alone without requiring any additional support or anchoring to the ground. The Portable Folding Anti-Crystal is expandable and there is practically no limit to the maximum number of frames that can be connected together. A portable folding Grill can also be placed side by side to create a larger grill. Thus the device of the portable folding Anti-Crystal has various types depending on the number and size of the frames. Frames can be of one or more tiers. Levels are defined as the number of skewers each frame can take in height. This is how different types of portable folding Anti-Grills arise depending on its capacity, i.e. the quantity-capacity of meat it can cook depending on the spits that can be placed on it at the same time. Common types are for 6 (three frames, two tiers), 12 (four frames, three tiers), 18 (six frames, three tiers), and proportionally 36 and 64 positions.

The advantage of the invention of the portable folding Anti-Crystal is that it is collapsible, standardized and expandable? Thus, it provides solutions to all the above technical difficulties, as it is fully adapted to today's health standards and can be commercialized, enabling anyone to make use of this specific baking technique anywhere, both in the home and in the professional area by simply choosing the type of portable foldable Antichristiera that fits the need at a time.

Its well-thought-out construction allows the ideal distribution of meat on it, as well as the ability to have stable and more appropriate calls that allow it to make the most of the heat produced by the stove. For example, a wrong grilling angle can vary the grilling time or the size of the hob, i.e. making it much larger than it normally needs, and ultimately the quality for the desired result.

The present invention may be fully understood from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:

Figure 1 shows the front view of a typical frame (1) which consists of the bar (2) bent into a trapezoidal shape and which carries the hooks (3) and the rings (4). The parallels (5) are shown in the same figure.

Figure 2 shows the top view of the frame (1) where the angle at which the hooks (3) and the rings (4) are placed can be seen

Figure 3 shows the perspective view of a 6-seater type of portable folding Antichrister with three frames (1) (6) and (7) and two steps in each frame. The same figure shows the detail N in which the hinged connection with the rings (4) between the frames (6) and (7) can be better distinguished. Figure 4 shows a perspective view of the portable folding Antichristier during the folding phase.

Figure 5 shows a perspective view of the portable folding Anti-Crystal when it is fully folded.

Figure 6 shows two portable collapsible Countertops side by side, forming a single extended system. This figure shows how the Portable Collapsible Anti-Crystal is expandable.

Figure 1 shows the front view of a frame (1) with two steps as it has two hooks (3) on one diagonal for placing two skewers and two parallel ones (5). The way the spits are placed is shown in figure 3. In the same diagonal where the hooks (3) are glued, the rings (4) are also glued with which the hinged connection between the frames is created.

Figure 2 shows the top view of the same frame (1) where the angle at which the hooks (3) and rings (4) are attached can be seen. The hooks (3) are attached at an angle to the plane of the frame (1). The rings (4) are glued onto the longitudinal plane.

Figure 3 shows the perspective view of the 6-seater type of portable folding Antichristiera with three frames (1) (6) and (7). The second frame (6) and third frame (7) are similar to those described in figure 1 and 2. The first frame (1) differs from the following ones as it has hooks (3) on both diagonals of the trapezoidal shape. In this figure, the fixed folding Anticristiera is set up ready for use and carries, for reasons of design simplicity, only two spits (9) in the second frame (6), while the first (1) and third (7) frames do not bear spits. The spits (9) press on one side on the hooks (3) of the frame (1) and on the other side on the hooks (3) of the frame (6). To make the hinged connection between the first frame (1) and the second frame (6), the rod (2) of the frame (6) passes through the rings (4) of the first frame (1). The parallels (5) of the second frame (6) are then glued after first connecting the frames ( 1) and (6) to each other and thus the connection is now permanent. In a similar way the second frame (6) is connected to the third (7). The hooks (3) are stuck at such an angle to each frame as to form a similar relative angle and with the adjacent frame The angle between the frames (1,6,7) is variable and adjustable and determines the how open or closed will be the final shape of the portable folding Antichristiera, according to the wishes of the user and the particularities of the hearth and the intensity of the fire.

Figure 4 shows a perspective view of the portable folding Anti-Crystal during the folding phase. It appears that the folding of the frames is done alternately clockwise and anticlockwise. This is achieved by making the rings (4) twice the diameter of the rod (2).

Figure 5 shows a perspective view of the portable folding Antichristiera fully folded.

Figure 6 shows two portable collapsible Anticristiers (10, 11), similar to those described in Figure 3, side by side, forming a single extended system with a common hearth. This figure shows how the Portable Collapsible Anti-Crystal is expandable.
