Application July 9, 1957, Serial No. 670,750
2 Claims. (Cl. 12614) This invention relates to cooking devices and more particularly to a barbecuing device rotatably mounted in an opening in an outside-wall of a dwelling and thereby alternately accessible from the interior or exterior of the dwelling.
One of the principal objects of the invention is the provision of a barbecue of the character described which provides, in a compact assembly of modernistic design, a serving table, fire pot, fire hood and smoke-stack, vertically centralized between two panes of glass and rotatable therewith as a unit within a wall-opening hav ing the appearance of a conventional window.
Another object is to provide a device of this character which is of simple, durable and inexpensive construction, safe and eificient in operation and which can be readily installed in any wall of a building at a minimum of expense so far as labor costs are concerned.
The functional advantages of the invention are that in case of a sudden rain shower, for example, with the table set for outdoor serving and the fire exposed to the atmosphere, an attendant may quickly transpose the fire pot and table contents to the interior of the dwelling by merely rotating the assembly through 180 of a circle.
The foregoing and other objects and advantages which will become subsequently apparent reside in the details of construction and operation as more fully hereinafter described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof, wherein like numerals refer to like parts throughout, and in which:
Figure 1 is a fragmentary elevational exterior view of a wall of a building showing our rotary barbecue installed therein.
Figure 2 is a sectional side view taken approximately along the line 22 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a sectional top plan view taken along the line 33 of Figure 1.
Figure 4 is a fragmentary sectional detail view on an enlarged scale illustrating a pivotal mounting at the telescoped ends of the rotatable smoke-stack and a stationary smoke-stack.
Figure 5 is a view similar to Figure 4 illustrating the bottom pivotal support for the invention.
Figure 6 is a sectional detail view on an enlarged scale taken along the line 6-6 of Figure 5.
With continuing reference to the drawings, wherein for the purpose of illustrating the invention like reference numerals will designate like parts throughout the same, the reference numeral 1 in Figures 1 to 3 indicates generally a fragment of a wall of a building as viewed from the outside thereof and having a square or rectangular opening therethrough provided With a frame indicated at 2. The bottom end members 3 of the frame converge downwardly to a central portion 4 (see also Figure 5) secured as at 5 to a sill 6 built within the wall and supported by the usual studding 7 as shown in Figure 2. The central portion 4 is provided with an annulus 8 adapted to rotatably support a base 9 having a complementary downwardly opening annular groove 10 formed therein and thereby rotatably mounted'upon the bearing 8. Secured to and extending upwardly from the base 9 is a shaft 11 to whose top end is secured the bottom wall 12 of a fire pot indicated generally at 13. A skirt 14 is secured concentrically to the bottom wall of the fire pot and flanged outwardly as at 15 at its bottom end to provide a support for a circular table top 16 to which the flange is secured by means of fastening screws 17. The table top may be provided with any suitable weather-proof, water repellent covering suchas Formica or the like of any pleasing color or design.
The rim of the fire pot is provided with an inwardly tapering flange 18 to which is secured, by spot-welding or the like, the bottom end of a fire hood 19 provided with an access opening 20. The fire hood is of frustoconical shape as shown and at its top end is secured as at 21 in any approved manner to the bottom end of a smoke-stack 22 provided with a damper 23. The smokestack (Figures 2 and 4) extends upwardly through an enlarged opening 24 in the ceiling 25 of a room, and the opening is covered with a bearing plate 26 welded to-a standard underwriters approved collar 27. The bearing plate has a central opening 28 therethrough and is provided with a concentric annulus 29 on its top surface. An annular channel member 30 is welded as at 31 to 'the smoke-stack 22 and provided on its bottom surface -as it rotates with its related parts which are rotatably mounted upon the bearing 8, as aforesaid. The rotatable smoke-stack 22 extends upwardly into a stationary smoke-stack 33 which also extends upwardly and to the exterior of the building.
As best illustrated in Figures 1 and 3, channel members 34 are secured by spot-welding or the like to opposite sides of the rim of the fire pot, the fire hood and the smoke-stack 22. Inverted channel members 35 extend laterally from the top end of the channels 34 and unite at their outer ends with vertical channel members 36 whose bottom ends unite with lateral channel members 37 secured to the table top 16 and whose inner ends are united with the bottom ends of the channels 34.
Panes of glass 38 are secured about their perimeter by suitable mastic within the channels 34, 35, 36 and 37 and insulated (see Figure 6) from the fire pot and chimney by asbestos A within the channels 34. The outer edges of the channels 36 and the top edges of the channels 35 are provided with weather-stripping of any approved type for frictional engagement with the members of the frame 2.
From the foregoing it will be apparent that the table top 16, fire hood 19, smoke-stack 22 and panes of glass 38 are all rotatable as a unit by means of the top and bottom bearing members 26-30 and 4 and 9, respectively, from a position where the fire box and table setting are on the exterior of a building to a position where they are exposed to the interior thereof. To render the unit air-tight in either of the two positions just mentioned we provide, as shown in Figure 1, vertical plates 50 and 51 whose side edges are secured, by soldering or the like, respectively, to the channel members 34 and skirt 14 and whose top edges are secured to the underside of the fire pct 13 with their bottom edges cemented or otherscope of the invention.
