The fourth region d extends in the vertical direction and connects the tips of the upper and lower third regions c. As shown in FIG. 2, the fourth regions d of the two main body handle parts 20 in the use state are close to each other, and the user can hold the fourth regions d of the two main body handle parts 20 together. 1, in the stored state, the upper and lower second regions b bend from the upper and lower ends of the first region 20a and extend outward in the X direction along the outer surface of the side plate 11c to the outer end of the side plate 11c, and the upper and lower third regions c bend from the tips of the upper and lower second regions b and extend along the outer surfaces of the side plates 11b, 11d. In this way, the main body handle 20 of this embodiment can be placed in a stored state along the outer surface of the stove main body 11 (the outer surfaces of the side plates 11b, 11c, 11d) and in a usage state in which it stands up from the outer surface of the stove main body 11 (the outer surface of the side plate 11c) and can be gripped.

[0025] As shown in Fig. 5, the mesh body 12 is a member on which food to be cooked can be placed and grilled. The mesh body 12 is detachable from the upper end of the stove body 11. The mesh body 12 in this embodiment is formed slightly smaller than the upper end opening 14 of the stove body 11, and when in use, it is placed inside the upper end opening 14 and supported from below by the mesh body support part 19 (see Fig. 3). Note that in this embodiment, the mesh body 12 is exemplified as the food support part, but this is not limited thereto, and for example, the food support part may be a food support part having a plurality of rod-shaped members arranged in parallel to each other, or may be an iron plate, etc.

[0026] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the lid 13 is a member capable of closing the upper opening 14 of the stove body 11, and is detachable from the stove body 11. The lid 13 of this embodiment is capable of closing the upper opening 14 with the mesh 12 attached to the stove body 11. The lid 13 of this embodiment has a substantially rectangular upper plate 13a and four lid side plate parts 13b (two lid side plate parts 13b are shown in the figure) that bend downward from the outer edge of the upper plate part 13a. A stove handle part 21 that can be gripped when carrying the stove 10 is provided on the upper surface of the upper plate part 13a.

[0027] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the stove 10 of this embodiment is provided with a snap lock 22 that prevents the lid 13 from being removed from the stove main body 11. The snap lock 22 is provided on the outer surface of the upper end of two of the four side plate portions 11b, 11c, 11d, 11e of the stove main body 11 that face each other. The snap lock 22 has a lever 22a and a locking arm 22b. When preventing the lid 13 from being removed from the stove main body 11, the lever 22a is lowered downward, so that the locking arm 22b presses the upper plate portion 13a of the lid 13 from above to lock it. On the other hand, when making the lid 13 removable from the stove main body 11, the lever 22a is raised, so that the locking of the lid 13 by the locking arm 22b is released. 5, the snap lock 22 of this embodiment can also lock the net body 12 when cooking on the stove 10. The "snap lock" may also be called a "clack lock," a "snap lock," or a "zipper fastener."

[0028] Next, a description will be given of an example of a method of using the stove 10. Note that the method of using the stove 10 is not limited to the method described below, and the stove 10 can be used in any desired manner.

[0029] As shown in FIG. 3, when starting a fire, first, the rotating lid 18 is operated to open the ventilation opening 17. Next, the ignition agent A is inserted from the ventilation opening 17 into the area below the grate 16 in the internal space 15 of the stove body 11. Next, the lid 13 (see FIG. 1 and FIG. 2) is removed, and a piece of wood B such as a disposable chopstick, which is relatively easy to burn, is placed on the grate 16 from the upper end opening 14 of the stove body 11. Next, charcoal C is placed above the piece of wood B from the upper end opening 14 of the stove body 11. Finally, by lighting the ignition agent A, the charcoal C can be ignited early by the chimney effect. In FIG. 3, the main body handle 20 is in a usable state, but this is not limited to this.

[0030] As shown in FIG. 4, when putting out a fire, first, the rotating lid 18 is operated to completely close the ventilation opening 17. Next, the lid 13 is removed, and the used charcoal C is placed on the grate 16 from the upper end opening 14 (see FIG. 3) of the stove main body 11. However, when putting out the fire of the charcoal C that was used in the internal space 15 of the stove main body 11, the used charcoal C is already placed on the grate 16. Next, as shown in FIG. 4, the lid 13 is attached to close the upper end opening 14, and locked with a snap lock 22. This blocks air to the internal space 15 of the stove main body 11, making it impossible to burn, and the fire of the charcoal C is extinguished. In FIG. 4, the main body handle 20 is in a used state, but this is not limited to this.

[0031] As shown in Figure 5, when using stove 10 as a stove in the normal way, first, start the fire using the method described above. Next, place net 12 on net support 19 (see Figure 3) of stove main body 11. Next, operate rotating lid 18 to adjust the size of ventilation opening 17 appropriately while adjusting the heat, and place food D on net 12 to grill. Note that, although main body handle 20 is in the use state in Figure 5, the present invention is not limited to this.

[0032] As shown in FIG. 6, when the charcoal C after starting a fire by the above-mentioned method is to be removed from the stove main body 11 to be moved to another location, first, the handle 20 is changed from the stored state to the use state. Next, as shown in FIG. 6, while holding the handle 20, the stove main body 11 is tilted so that the upper end opening 14 opens to the side. At this time, when the handle 20 is on the upper side, the side plate 11e, which does not have the mesh support part 19, among the four side plate parts 11b, 11c, 11d, and 11e of the stove main body 11 is located at the bottom. As a result, since the side plate part 11e, which does not have the mesh support part 19, is located at the bottom, the charcoal C in the internal space 15 can be slid along the inner surface of the side plate part 11e and removed from the upper end opening 14 without getting caught on the mesh support part 19.

[0033] In the stove 10 configured as described above, the stove body 11 has a grate 16 that is placed in the internal space 15 and capable of supporting charcoal C, a ventilation opening 17 that is located below the grate 16 and connects the outside to the internal space 15, and a rotating lid 18 that can adjust the size of the ventilation opening 17. Therefore, as described above, a fire can be easily started using the stove 10.

[0034] In addition, the rotating lid 18 is capable of closing the ventilation opening 17, and is also provided with a lid body 13 that is capable of closing the upper end opening 14 of the stove main body 11, so that the stove 10 can also be used as a fire extinguisher, as described above.

[0035] Furthermore, since the stove has a simple structure consisting of the stove body, mesh 12, and lid 13, the number of parts is small and the stove 10 can be used as a compact stove.

[0036] Thus, according to this embodiment, a stove can be provided that can start a fire, can be used as a fire extinguisher, and can be used as a compact stove 10.

[0037] In addition, the mesh support portion 19 is not provided on the inner surface of the upper end portion of at least one side plate portion 11e of the stove body 11. Therefore, as described above, the charcoal C can be easily removed from the stove body 11 after starting the fire.

[0038] Furthermore, a main body handle 20 that serves as a handle for the stove main body 11 is provided on the side facing the side plate 11e on which the mesh support 19 is not provided. Therefore, when removing charcoal C from the stove main body 11 after starting a fire, the main body handle 20 can be grasped to support the stove main body 11, and the work of removing the charcoal C can be performed stably.

[0039] Furthermore, the main body handle portion 20 can be stored along the outer surface of the stove main body portion 11, so that the main body handle portion 20 can be stored compactly when not in use.

[0040] Although the present invention has been described based on the above embodiment, the present invention is not limited to the contents of the above embodiment, and can be modified as appropriate without departing from the scope of the present invention. In other words, all other embodiments, examples, and operational techniques made by those skilled in the art based on this embodiment are naturally included in the scope of the present invention.
