Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oven technology, specifically to an adjustable grill with an adjustable distance between the grate and the fire source. Background Technology
[0002] As a globally popular cooking method, the design of the core tool, the "grill," directly affects the grilling effect, usability, and heat utilization efficiency. Currently, the mainstream grills on the market are charcoal grills (including clay grills and metal charcoal grills), which have long dominated the core market for home outdoor grilling and small-scale catering due to the unique charred flavor brought by charcoal grilling. However, as users demand more precise control over the taste of grilled meat and adaptability to various ingredients, traditional charcoal grills are gradually revealing their technological shortcomings in the two core aspects of "grate adjustment" and "heat distribution," making it difficult to meet the demands for efficient and flexible use in diverse grilling scenarios.
[0003] The core functional component of existing charcoal grills, the "grill," is generally installed directly on the top of the grill body using fixed brackets, clips, or welding. The distance between the grill and the charcoal (fire source) is a fixed value preset by the factory and cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the characteristics of the ingredients or the stage of grilling, becoming a key bottleneck restricting the grilling effect. The distance between the grill and the fire source cannot be adjusted when grilling ingredients that are resistant to grilling, easily cooked, or easily charred.
[0004] Meanwhile, traditional charcoal stoves generally adopt a structure where a "single-level grill grate" directly corresponds to the fire source, lacking intermediate buffers and heat dissipation components, resulting in the local high temperature generated by charcoal combustion not being evenly distributed.
[0005] In summary, existing charcoal grills have significant technological gaps in meeting the two core requirements of "flexible adjustment of the distance between the grate and the fire source" and "uniform heat transfer." There is an urgent need for an innovative design that is structurally simple, cost-controllable, adaptable to multiple scenarios, and can achieve precise control of the distance through "lifting adjustment" and uniform heat distribution through "double-layer grate" to meet the efficient grilling needs of diverse scenarios such as home, outdoor, and small catering. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a barbecue grill with an adjustable distance between the grill and the fire source, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an adjustable grill with adjustable distance between the grill and the fire source, including a charcoal stove, a fixed support frame fixedly connected to the top of the outer wall of the charcoal stove, a liftable grill bracket provided on the fixed support frame, and a grill placed on the grill bracket.
[0008] Preferably, the top of the charcoal furnace is provided with a heat dissipation grate.
[0009] Preferably, a first water ring is provided between the carbon furnace and the heat dissipation grate.
[0010] Preferably, the grate bracket and the fixed support frame are connected by a lifting and adjusting mechanism.
[0011] Preferably, the lifting and adjusting mechanism includes a guide groove disposed on a fixed support frame, one end of the grate bracket is slidably connected to the guide groove, and a rotating screw is rotatably disposed on the inner side of the guide groove, the rotating screw being threadedly connected to the grate bracket.
[0012] Preferably, a guide rod penetrating the grate bracket is also provided on the inner side of the guide groove.
[0013] Preferably, a second water ring is placed on top of the grill rack, and the grill rack is placed on top of the second water ring.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: This adjustable grate-to-heater grill addresses the issue of traditional charcoal grills where the grate spacing is factory-preset and cannot be flexibly adjusted. The adjustable lifting mechanism allows for dynamic changes in the grate-to-heater distance. For thick cuts of meat requiring high-temperature grilling, such as steaks and lamb chops, the distance to the heat source can be shortened. For easily cooked and charred cuts of meat, such as asparagus and thinly sliced meat, the distance can be increased to prevent localized charring. This effectively solves the limitation of traditional equipment where a single distance is insufficient for various ingredients, meeting users' needs for different grilling results. To address the issues of traditional single-layer charcoal grills lacking heat buffering and difficulty in dispersing localized high temperatures, the double-layer grate design creates a more efficient heat transfer path. The lower heat dissipation grate disperses the concentrated high temperature of the charcoal fire across the entire surface, reducing scorching of food in the central area while increasing the temperature of the edge areas. This reduces the cooking speed differences among the same batch of food, decreases the workload of frequently turning the food, and also reduces direct heat loss, thus improving heat utilization efficiency.

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0018] Please see Figure 1-8 This utility model provides a technical solution: An adjustable grill with adjustable distance between the grate and the fire source includes a charcoal oven 1, which can be a clay oven. A fixed support frame 3 is fixed to the top of the outer wall of the charcoal oven 1, and the fixed support frame 3 is fixed to the edge of the charcoal oven 1 by screws. The fixed support frame 3 is mainly used to support the grate bracket 6.
[0019] A grate bracket 6 is installed vertically on the fixed support frame 3. The grate bracket 6 and the fixed support frame 3 are connected by a lifting and adjusting mechanism. The horizontal height of the grate bracket 6 is adjusted by the lifting and adjusting mechanism. A barbecue grate 8 is placed on top of the grate bracket 6. The grate bracket 6 uses a metal plate, and a ring is provided at one end of the metal plate to facilitate support for the barbecue grate 8.
[0020] The top of the charcoal stove 1 is provided with a heat dissipation grate 9, which is a metal mesh grate with good thermal conductivity, and is placed between the roasting grate 6 and the fire source.
[0021] A first water ring 2 is provided between the carbon furnace 1 and the heat dissipation grate 9. The outer wall of the first water ring 2 should fit with the top of the inner wall of the carbon furnace 1, and is mainly used to support and place the heat dissipation grate 9.
[0022] The lifting and adjusting mechanism includes a guide groove 4 mounted on a fixed support frame 3. One end of the grate bracket 6 is slidably connected to the guide groove 4. A rotating screw 5 is rotatably mounted on the inner side of the guide groove 4, and the rotating screw 5 is threadedly connected to the grate bracket 6. A motor or knob is mounted at one end of the rotating screw 5 to control its rotation. By rotating the rotating screw 5, the lifting and lowering of the connected grate bracket 6 can be controlled.
[0023] The inner side of the guide groove 4 is also provided with a guide rod 10 that passes through the grate bracket 6. The guide rod 10 is slidably connected to the grate bracket 6. The guide rod 10 is used to improve the stability of the grate bracket 6 and can also place the drooping end of the grate bracket 6 where the barbecue grate 8 is placed.
[0024] A second water ring 7 is placed on top of the grill rack 6, and the grill rack 8 is placed on top of the second water ring 7. The outer wall shape of the second water ring 7 is adapted to the ring of the grill rack 6; the inner top of the second water ring 7 is used to place the grill rack 8. An annular water groove is provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the second water ring 7 to collect the grease flowing along the edge of the grill rack.
[0025] Working principle: When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the grill rack 8 and the fire source, the rotating screw 5 is driven to rotate by a motor or knob. When the rotating screw 5 rotates, since the grill rack bracket 6 is threadedly connected to the rotating screw 5 and is limited by the guide groove 4 and the guide rod 10, the grill rack bracket 6 will move up and down in the vertical direction, thereby driving the grill rack 8 placed on it to rise and fall, thus realizing the adjustment of the distance between it and the fire source.
