Description

Technical fields:

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of barbecue equipment, specifically referring to a barbecue grill. Background technology:

[0002] A Chinese utility model patent (authorization announcement date CN217408518U) discloses a barbecue grill, which includes a grill body and a heat source device. A flexible support member is rotatably connected to the grill body, and a flip-door shell is connected to the grill body. The bottom of the flip-door shell is hinged and rotatably mounted on the grill body, and the top is a free end that can be fixed in position to the heat source device through a connecting component. A linkage member is connected between the flexible support member and the flip-door shell, and the flip-door shell flips outward, causing the flexible support member to bend outward through the linkage member. The top of the barbecue skewer is engaged and rotatably connected to the flip-door shell, and the bottom is inserted into the top of the flexible support member. The flexible support member drives the barbecue skewer to rotate together.

[0003] In the aforementioned structure, the hinged door shell is connected to the oven body via an existing hinge mechanism. Disassembling and assembling the hinged door shell and the oven body is inconvenient, requiring users to spend considerable time and effort, and it is difficult to complete the disassembly and assembly without damaging the components. Furthermore, since the skewers are grilled between the hinged door shell and the heat source, frequent cleaning of the hinged door shell and the oven body between it and the heat source is inevitable during daily use. If the hinged door shell is not disassembled before cleaning, the cleaning operation is difficult, and it is impossible to clean thoroughly, leaving some hard-to-reach areas. Summary of the Invention:

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a barbecue grill in which the flip door is hinged to the grill body via a hinge shaft and an upward-facing hinge slot. This not only allows the flip door to flip inwards and outwards, but also allows the flip door to be easily separated from the hinge slot by simply lifting it upwards. The operation is simple, convenient, and inexpensive.

[0005] This invention is implemented as follows:

[0006] A barbecue grill includes a grill body and a heat source component disposed in the middle of the grill body. One or more flip doors are disposed around the outer periphery of the heat source component. The bottom of the flip door is hinged to the grill body, and the top is a free end that can be fixed to the position of the heat source component through a connecting structure. A hinge bracket is disposed on the grill body below each of the flip doors. The top of the hinge bracket has an upward-facing hinge groove. The bottom of the flip door is provided with a hinge shaft that is inserted into and hinged in the corresponding hinge groove.

[0007] In the aforementioned barbecue grill, the opening of the hinge groove is arranged vertically upward, or inclined upward and inward, or inclined upward and outward.

[0008] In the above-mentioned barbecue grill, the opening of the hinge groove is inclined upward and inward, the heat source component and the grill body are detachable separate structures, and when the flip door is fixed to the position of the heat source component through the connecting structure, the angle between the flip door and the horizontal plane is greater than the angle between the opening direction of the hinge groove and the horizontal plane.

[0009] In the above-mentioned barbecue grill, the grill body located below each of the flip doors is provided with two or more hinge brackets arranged side by side, and the number and position of the hinge shafts provided on the flip doors correspond one-to-one with the hinge brackets.

[0010] In the aforementioned barbecue grill, the hinge bracket includes a support rod with its bottom end fixed to the grill body, and the top end of the support rod extends upward and outward to form an inclined portion, with the hinge groove located at the top end of the inclined portion.

[0011] In the aforementioned barbecue grill, the hinge shaft includes a fixing seat that is fixed to the bottom wall of the flip door by fasteners. The fixing seat is provided with a hinge pin in the horizontal direction for insertion and hinge engagement in the corresponding hinge groove. There is a fitting gap between the hinge pin and the inner wall of the flip door.

[0012] In the aforementioned type of barbecue grill, the opening of the hinge groove is tilted upward and inward at an angle of 0-60°.

[0013] In the aforementioned barbecue grill, the flip-up door has an arc-shaped structure, and the flip-up door surrounding the heat source component forms a cylindrical structure. The connecting structure includes an annular positioning groove on the top surface of the heat source component. The top of each flip-up door is provided with a fan-shaped top cover that is radially distributed along the heat source component and located above the heat source component. The lower surface of the fan-shaped top cover is provided with a positioning protrusion that can be engaged in the annular positioning groove.

[0014] The outstanding advantages of this invention compared to the prior art are:

[0015] The invention has a simple overall structure, reasonable design and low cost. The flip door and the furnace body are hinged together by the hinge shaft and the upward-facing hinge slot. This not only enables the flip door to flip inward and outward, but also allows the flip door to be separated from the hinge slot simply by lifting it upward. The disassembly and assembly are convenient, time-saving and labor-saving, and frequent disassembly and assembly will not damage the parts. Attached image description:

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. See also: Figure 1 —4:

[0022] Example 1:

[0023] A barbecue grill includes a grill body 1 and a heat source component 2 disposed in the middle of the grill body 1. One or more flip doors 3 are disposed on the grill body 1 surrounding the heat source component 2. The bottom of the flip door 3 is hinged to the grill body 1, and the top is a free end that can be fixed to the position of the heat source component 2 by a connecting structure. A hinge bracket 4 is disposed on the grill body 1 below each of the flip doors 3. The top of the hinge bracket 4 has an upward-facing hinge groove 5. The bottom of the flip door 3 is provided with a hinge shaft 6 that is inserted into and hinged in the corresponding hinge groove 5.

[0024] The present invention has a simple overall structure, reasonable design and low cost. The flip door 3 and the furnace body 1 are hinged together by the hinge shaft 6 and the hinge opening through slot with the opening facing upward. This not only enables the flip door 3 to flip inward and outward, but also allows the flip door 3 to be hinged and separated from the hinge slot 5 simply by lifting it upward. The disassembly and assembly are convenient, time-saving and labor-saving, and frequent disassembly and assembly will not damage the parts.

[0025] In this embodiment, the opening of the hinge groove 5 is inclined upwards and inwards. Simultaneously, the heat source assembly 2 and the furnace body 1 are detachable separate structures. When the flip door 3 is fixed to the heat source assembly 2 via the connecting structure, the angle between the flip door 3 and the horizontal plane is greater than the angle between the opening direction of the hinge groove 5 and the horizontal plane. This limiting angle ensures that the flip door 3 will not be accidentally separated from the hinge groove 5 during inward and outward flipping.

[0026] Furthermore, in order to ensure that the flip door 3 can flip stably inside and out, the furnace body 1 located below each flip door 3 is provided with two or more hinge brackets 4 arranged side by side, and the number and position of the hinge shafts 6 provided on the flip door 3 correspond one-to-one with the hinge brackets 4.

[0027] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the hinge bracket 4 has the following specific structure: the hinge bracket 4 includes a support rod 7 with its bottom end fixed to the furnace body 1, and the top end of the support rod 7 extends upward and outward to form an inclined portion 8. The hinge groove 5 is formed at the top end of the inclined portion 8. Correspondingly, in this embodiment, the hinge shaft 6 has the following specific structure: the hinge shaft 6 includes a fixing seat 9 fixed to the bottom wall of the flip door 3 by fasteners. The fixing seat 9 is provided with a hinge pin 10 in the horizontal direction for insertion and hinged engagement in the corresponding hinge groove 5. There is a fitting gap between the hinge pin 10 and the inner wall surface of the flip door 3. The top end of the inclined portion 8 of the hinge bracket 4 can be relatively hinged and rotated in the fitting gap formed between the hinge pin 10 and the inner wall surface of the flip door 3. When the flip door 3 is flipped outward to its extreme value, the lower edge of the flip door 3 abuts against the furnace body 1, or the lower edge of the flip door abuts against the support rod 7 or the inclined portion 8 of the hinge bracket 4.

[0028] Furthermore, in this embodiment, since the opening of the hinge groove 5 is set upward and inward, the top of the inclined part 8 of the hinge bracket 4 can play a limiting role in the fitting gap. When the heat source component 2 is not disassembled from the furnace body 1 to make room, the flip door 3 cannot move relative to the hinge groove 5 in the upward and inward direction due to the limiting effect of the top of the inclined part 8 of the hinge bracket 4 and the fitting gap, thus forming a fitting structure that locks the flip door 3 in the disassembly and assembly. Correspondingly, in this embodiment, only by first disassembling and separating the heat source component 2 from the furnace body 1 to make room can the flip door 3 be flipped inward into the original assembly space of the heat source component 2, and then the flip door 3 can be pulled out in the upward and inward direction along the opening of the hinge groove 5 to realize the disassembly of the flip door 3.

[0029] Furthermore, the opening of the hinge groove 5 is inclined upward and inward at an angle of 0-60°.

[0030] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the specific configuration of the connection structure between the flip door 3 and the heat source component 2 is as follows: the flip door 3 has a planar or arc-shaped structure, and the flip door 3 surrounding the heat source component 2 forms a prism or cylindrical structure. The connection structure includes an annular positioning groove 11 or an annular positioning protrusion provided on the top surface of the heat source component 2. The top of each flip door 3 is provided with a fan-shaped top cover 12 distributed radially along the heat source component 2 and located above the heat source component 2. The lower surface of the fan-shaped top cover 12 is provided with a positioning protrusion that can be engaged in the annular positioning groove 11 or a positioning groove that can be engaged in the annular positioning protrusion.

[0031] Example 2:

[0032] This embodiment is basically the same in structure as the first embodiment above, the main difference being that the opening of the hinge groove 5 is set vertically upward. That is, due to the limiting effect of the top of the inclined part 8 of the hinge bracket 4 and the fitting gap, the flip door 3 can only be lifted vertically upward along the opening of the hinge groove 5 when it is flipped to the vertical direction, thus realizing the disassembly of the flip door 3.

[0033] Example 3:

[0034] This embodiment is basically the same in structure as Embodiment 1 above, the main difference being that the opening of the hinge groove 5 is inclined upward and outward. Compared with Embodiments 1 and 2 above, this structure makes the disassembly of the flip door 3 more convenient. The flip door 3 can be directly lifted outward along the opening of the hinge groove 5 to achieve disassembly.

[0035] The above embodiments are merely one of the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the shape, structure and principle of the present invention should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
