Barbecue Stove

Abstract

Disclosed is a stand for supporting a barbecue stove. The stand includes a frame, a guiding element, a first supporting unit and a second supporting unit. The frame is used to support a barbecue stove. The guiding element is connected to the frame, thus defining a space between the guiding element and the frame. The first supporting unit includes a beam pivotally connected to the frame, two struts extending from the beam, and two wheels each connected to a related one of the struts. The second supporting unit includes a beam inserted through the space and movable in and along the space and two struts extending from the beam thereof. Each of the struts of the second supporting unit is pivotally connected to a related one of the struts of the first supporting unit. The beam of the second supporting unit is movable in and along the space as the first and second supporting units are movable between extended and collapsed positions.

1 . A stand for supporting a barbecue stove, the stand including:
 a frame for supporting a barbecue stove;   a guiding element connected to the frame, thus defining a space S between the guiding element and the frame;   a first supporting unit including a beam pivotally connected to the frame, two struts extending from the beam, and two wheels each connected to a related one of the struts; and   a second supporting unit including a beam inserted through the space S and movable in and along the space S and two struts extending from the beam thereof, wherein each of the struts of the second supporting unit is pivotally connected to a related one of the struts of the first supporting unit, wherein the beam of the second supporting unit is movable in and along the space S as the first and second supporting units are movable between extended and collapsed positions.   
     
     
         2 . The stand according to  claim 1 , wherein the frame includes two lateral bones each including a horizontal face and an inclined face for contact with a barbecue stove. 
     
     
         3 . The stand according to  claim 2 , wherein an angle θ defined between the horizontal face and the inclined face is smaller than 180°. 
     
     
         4 . The stand according to  claim 2 , wherein the frame includes three crossbars for interconnecting the lateral bones, wherein the guiding element is connected to a middle one of the crossbars. 
     
     
         5 . The stand according to  claim 3 , wherein each of the lateral bones is made of a metal plate, wherein each of the crossbars includes two ends each connected to an internal side of a related one of the lateral bones. 
     
     
         6 . The stand according to  claim 1 , further including a handle connected to one of the lateral bones of the frame.
