In addition, one other straight-line window 68 is provided between the two of the straight-line windows 66. Furthermore, multiple through-holes 69 are formed in the inner portion of the cooking plate 9.

[0015] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the fire pit base 1 is constructed by combining two side plates 3, one back plate 5, one support plate 7, and one cooking plate 9. As shown in Figures 2 and 8(a), the L-shaped hook portion 19 of the side plate 3 engages with the vertical horizontal window 31 of the back plate 5, so that the two side plates 3 are attached to both sides of the back plate 5 in the left-right direction in Figure 1, forming a U-shaped frame 71 in plan view. The support plate 7 is attached to the lower side of the U-shaped frame 71 in Figure 1 to reinforce the U-shaped frame 71 in plan view. As shown in Figure 2, the tongue-shaped insertion portion 43 of the support plate 7 is inserted into the second horizontal horizontal window 35 from the bottom in Figure 2 of the back plate 5. As shown in Figures 1 and 8(b), the T-shaped locking portion 45 of the support plate 7 is engaged with the engaging recess 15 of the second inverted L-shaped hook portion 11 from the bottom in Figure 1 of the side plate 3.

[0016] Furthermore, the cooking plate 9 is positioned on the upper side of the support plate 7 in Figure 1. As shown in Figure 2, the tongue-shaped insertion portion 53 of the cooking plate 9 is inserted into the sixth horizontal window 35 from the bottom in Figure 2 of the back plate 5, and the tip of the tongue-shaped insertion portion 55 of the cooking plate 9 abuts against the back plate 5. As shown in Figures 1 and 8(b), the T-shaped locking portion 57 of the cooking plate 9 is engaged with the engaging recess 17 of the sixth inverted L-shaped hook portion 13 from the bottom in Figure 1 of the side plate 3.

[0017] As shown in Figure 1, a gas burner 81 or the like, which serves as the source of the fire, is installed in the lower part of Figure 1 within the fire pit base 1, passing through the center of the support plate 7. Cooking utensils such as a mess kit 83 are placed on the cooking plate 9 mentioned above.

[0018] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 9, the position of the cooking plate 9 in the height direction (up and down direction in Figure 1) can be set arbitrarily. In Figure 9, the cooking plate 9 is installed on the 13th level from the bottom. In this case, the pot 84 is placed on the cooking plate 9 mentioned above.

[0019] Next, the operation according to this first embodiment will be described. The above-mentioned fire pit base 1 consists of two side panels 3, one back panel 5, one support panel 7, and one cooking panel 9. Therefore, when transporting or storing, for example, the side panels 3, back panel 5, support panel 7, and cooking panel 9 can be stacked, and when in use, they can be assembled and used as the fire pit base 1. The L-shaped hook portion 19 of the side plate 3 engages with the vertical straight window 31 of the back plate 5, thereby attaching two side plates 3 to both sides of the back plate 5 in the left-right direction in Figure 1, forming a U-shaped frame 71 in plan view. The tongue-shaped insertion portion 43 of the support plate 7 is inserted into the horizontal straight window 35 of the back plate 5, and the T-shaped locking portion 45 of the support plate 7 engages with the engaging recess 15 of the inverted L-shaped hook portion 11 of the side plate 3, thereby attaching the support plate 7. The tongue-shaped insertion portion 53 of the cooking plate 9 is inserted into the horizontal straight window 35 of the back plate 5, and the T-shaped locking portion 57 of the cooking plate 9 engages with the engaging recess 15 of the inverted L-shaped hook portion 11 of the side plate 3.

[0020] A gas burner 81 or the like is placed inside the fire pit base 1, and cooking utensils such as a mess kit 83 are placed on the cooking plate 9 to cook.

[0021] Next, the effects of this first embodiment will be described. First, the inadvertent expansion of the left and right side plates 3, 3 in the U-shaped frame 71 in plan view can be effectively restricted. This is because, in the U-shaped frame 71 in plan view, the tongue-shaped insertion portion 43 of the support plate 7 is inserted into the second horizontal window 35 from the bottom in Figure 2 of the back plate 5, and the T-shaped locking portion 45 of the support plate 7 engages with the engaging recess 15 of the second inverted L-shaped hook portion 11 from the bottom in Figure 1 of the side plate 3, thereby firmly supporting the U-shaped frame 71 in plan view. In particular, the neck portion of the T-shaped locking portion 45 is dropped into and engaged with the engaging recess 15 of the inverted L-shaped hook portion 11, thereby effectively restricting the inadvertent expansion of the left and right side plates 3, 3. Furthermore, the above effect is doubled when the tongue-shaped insertion portion 53 of the cooking plate 9 is inserted into the horizontal window 35 of the back plate 5 and the T-shaped locking portion 57 of the cooking plate 9 engages with the engaging recess 15 of the inverted L-shaped hook portion 11 of the side plate 3, thereby installing the cooking plate 9 on the U-shaped frame 71 in plan view. The interior of the fire pit base 1 is open to the front, and a fire source can be secured below the fire pit base 1 to allow cooking by placing food on the cooking plate 9 or other items to be heated, such as pots, on the cooking plate 9. This configuration can be provided with a simple structure and simple operation.

[0022] Furthermore, the horizontal window 35 of the back panel 5 is provided in multiple rows in the vertical direction in Figure 5, and the inverted L-shaped hook portions 11 and 13 of the side panel 3 are also provided in multiple rows in the vertical direction in Figure 4, so the vertical position of the cooking panel 9 can be set arbitrarily. Furthermore, the above-mentioned fire pit base 1 is composed of two side panels 3, one back panel 5, one support panel 7, and one cooking panel 9. Therefore, it is easy to transport and store. In particular, all parts fit within the rectangular area in which the side panels 3 are placed, making it highly portable and easy to transport, for example, on a two-wheeled vehicle.

[0023] Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figures 10 to 13. As shown in Figures 10 and 11, the fire pit base 101 according to this second embodiment has substantially the same configuration as the fire pit base 1 according to the first embodiment, but two cooking plates 9 and a fire source plate 103 as a flat plate are installed on the U-shaped frame 71 in plan view.

[0024] As shown in Figure 12, the heat source plate 103, like the cooking plate 9, has tongue-shaped insertion portions 105 formed on both the left and right sides of its rear edge (upper edge in Figure 12) in Figure 7. In addition, T-shaped locking portions 107 are provided on the left and right front edges (lower left and right edges in Figure 12) of the cooking plate 9.
