Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of outdoor oven technology, and in particular relates to an outdoor oven with an adjustable grill height. Background Technology

[0002] Outdoor grills are a common piece of equipment in outdoor barbecue activities. Traditional outdoor grills usually do not have height adjustment functions, and users can only grill at a fixed height. This fixed height design cannot meet the needs of different users with different heights and different usage scenarios. As people's requirements for the outdoor barbecue experience have increased, some height-adjustable outdoor grills have emerged.

[0003] However, existing adjustable height ovens have some problems in the adjustment process. The height adjustment structure of some ovens is relatively simple. When adjusted to a higher height, the oven is not stable and is prone to shaking or even tipping over, posing certain safety hazards. Moreover, these ovens often do not take into account the deployment of auxiliary support structures during the height adjustment process, and cannot effectively improve the stability of the oven at different heights.

[0004] To address these issues, we offer outdoor grills with adjustable grill height. Utility Model Content
