[0022] Example 1
[0023] like Figures 1-4 As shown in the figure, the reversible barbecue grill proposed in this embodiment includes a support member 9, a support frame 10, a grill assembly, an operation assembly, and a charcoal support assembly.
[0024] Two sets of operating components are symmetrically arranged along the width of the support frame 10. Each operating component includes a swinging member 6, whose two ends are rotatably connected to one end of the support frame 10 and the grill assembly, respectively, and a rocking member 7, whose one end is rotatably connected to the middle of the grill assembly via a rotating rod 8. The rocking member 7 is rotatably mounted on the top of the support frame 10, and its other end extends forward to form a grip between the rocking member 7 and the support frame 10 at the rotatable connection point and between the outer end of the rocking member 7 and the support frame 10. The grip is convenient for the user to hold and improves the ease of operation.
[0025] The grill assembly includes a grill 1, a grill 2 hinged at one end to a hinge 3, and a connecting assembly that detachably connects the other ends of grill 1 and grill 2. A rotating rod 8 is rotatably connected to the middle of grill 1. After opening grill 2 upwards, the user can place food on grill 1, then close grill 2, connecting grill 1 and grill 2 via the connecting assembly to clamp the food between them, preventing it from falling off during grilling. Both grill 1 and grill 2 feature a perforated design, which facilitates heat transfer from the burning charcoal and ensures even grilling of the food.
[0026] The connecting assembly includes a bolt 4 mounted on grill 1, a socket 201 mounted on grill 2 for the bolt 4 to pass through, and a nut 5 threadedly connected to the bolt 4. The nut 5 can be a regular nut or a butterfly nut; using a butterfly nut makes it easier to rotate.
[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support member 9 is located on top of the support frame 10, and the support member 9 is used to support the rotating rod 8. Furthermore, the top of the support member 9 has a groove 901, which makes it easier to support the rotating rod 8. After the grill assembly is lowered by the user, the rotating rod 8 rests precisely on the inside of the groove 901.
[0028] The charcoal holder is mounted on the support frame 10, located below the grill assembly. The charcoal is placed on the charcoal holder, which has a perforated design to facilitate ventilation, combustion, and ash removal. The charcoal acts beneath the grill assembly to grill the food placed on it.
[0029] This embodiment facilitates user flipping operations, reduces labor intensity, and improves ease of use. In the initial state, grill rack 2 is positioned above grill rack 1. The user flips grill rack 2 upwards, places food on grill rack 1, and connects grill rack 1 and grill rack 2 via the connecting assembly to begin grilling. When grilling from the other side is desired, the user holds the handle and presses down on the outer end of the rocker 7. The rocker 7, via the rotating rod 8, rotates grill rack 1, grill rack 2, food, and the oscillating component 6. When grill rack 1 rotates to be level with the oscillating component 6, it continues to rotate in the previous direction due to its own inertia, further rotating the oscillating component 6. At this point, the user lifts the outer end of the rocker 7, switching the positions of grill rack 1 and grill rack 2, thus flipping them. The rotating rod 8 rests on the top of the support member 9 for support, allowing grilling from the other side of the food. When it is necessary to flip them over again, follow the same procedure: first press down on the outer end of the rocker 7, then lift up the outer end of the rocker 7. If necessary, other tools (such as spatulas, brushes, wooden sticks, etc.) can be used to push the grill racks to assist in the flipping process of grill rack 1 and grill rack 2.
[0030] Example 2
[0031] like Figures 1-5 As shown in this embodiment, a flip-up barbecue grill is proposed. Compared to Embodiment 1, in this embodiment, the charcoal support assembly includes a charcoal rack 14 and two sets of adjustment components distributed at both ends of the charcoal rack 14. Each adjustment component includes a first connector 11, a second connector 12, and a linkage. The support frame 10, the first connector 11, the second connector 12, and the linkage are rotatably connected in sequence. The linkage is rotatably connected to the support frame 10. The height of the charcoal rack 14 can be adjusted through the adjustment components, thereby adjusting the distance between the charcoal rack 14 and the grill assembly, and thus adjusting the grilling heat. Multiple baffles 15 are arranged side-by-side along the vertical direction on the support frame 10. After the charcoal rack 14 is adjusted to the target height, the corresponding baffles 15 support and limit the adjustment components.
[0032] The linkage components in the two sets of adjustment components are rocking component 2 13 and connecting component 3 131, respectively. The length of rocking component 2 13 is greater than the length of connecting component 3 131, and rocking component 2 13 extends forward. Only one rocking component 2 13 is longer, which is convenient for the user to operate by hand. When the user lifts rocking component 2 13, it can drive the charcoal frame 14 to move upward through connecting component 2 12, and conversely, it can adjust the charcoal frame 14 downward.
[0033] like Figure 3As shown, when the second rocking member 13 is bent inward, it is offset from the stop 15. At this time, the height of the charcoal frame 14 can be adjusted by raising or lowering the second rocking member 13. When the second rocking member 13 is bent outward, it can be placed on a stop 15, which supports the second rocking member 13 and keeps the charcoal frame 14 at the corresponding height. The rotational connection of the support frame 10, the first connecting member 11, the second connecting member 12, the second rocking member 13, and the third connecting member 131 is not strictly limited to rotation within a circumference. In fact, the parts are loosely connected, and the second rocking member 13 can be bent in the left and right directions as appropriate.
[0034] This embodiment adjusts the height of the charcoal rack 14 using an adjustment component to regulate the heat during grilling, making it suitable for grilling different foods at different intensities and offering greater flexibility.
[0035] Example 3
[0036] like Figures 1-5 As shown, this embodiment of the reversible barbecue grill differs from Embodiment 2 in that both the support frame 10 and the charcoal rack 14 are assembled from multiple rectangular or round tubes, which can be connected by bolts and nuts or by welding. The oscillating component 6, the rocking component 7, the support component 9, the connecting component 11, the connecting component 2 12, the rocking component 2 13, and the connecting component 3 131 are all rectangular or round tubes. Other types of tubing can also be used, depending on actual production needs.
[0037] like Figure 5 As shown, the charcoal rack 14 has an upward-facing charcoal placement area on its inner side. The charcoal placement area is roughly trough-shaped, and the inner side can hold the barbecue charcoal to prevent it from falling off. At the same time, the charcoal rack 14, which is assembled from multiple tubes, forms a natural perforation, which is conducive to providing sufficient oxygen to the barbecue charcoal and also facilitates the cleaning of charcoal ash.
[0038] Most of the structures in this embodiment are made of tubing, which saves costs. Grill rack 1 and grill rack 2 can also be made of tubing, with multiple steel bars welded to the inside to clamp the food for grilling.
[0039] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
