DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0017] With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to
FIGS. 1 through 5 thereof, a new cooking device embodying the
principles and concepts of an embodiment of the disclosure and
generally designated by the reference numeral 10 will be
described.
[0018] As best illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 5, the multiple
burner cooking assembly 10 generally comprises a table 12 that is
positionable on a support surface 14. The table 12 comprises a
frame 16 and a plurality of legs 18 that is each coupled to and
extends downwardly from the frame 16. The frame 16 comprises a
plurality of first members 20 each extending a pair of second
members 22. The first members 20 are spaced apart from each other
and are distributed along a full length of the second members 22.
The frame 16 and each of the legs 18 may be comprised of metal or
other type of heat resistant material.
[0019] A plurality of burners 24 is each coupled to the table 12 to
have a cooking pot positioned thereon for cooking. Each of the
burners 24 is attached to the frame 16 and each of the burners 24
is positioned in a respective space 26 between a respective pair of
the first members 20. Each of the burners 24 is directed upwardly
on the frame 16 and each of the burners 24 has an input 28. As is
most clearly shown in FIG. 2, each of the burners 24 may include a
cylindrical shield 30 extending therearound to inhibit wind from
blowing on the burners 24. Additionally, as is most clearly shown
in FIG. 4, each of the burners 24 may include a plurality of
supports 32 that are coupled to the frame 16 for supporting the
cooking pot. Each of the burners 24 may comprise a propane burner
of any conventional design.
[0020] A plurality of conduits 34 is each coupled to the table 12
and each of the conduits 34 is fluidly coupled to a respective one
of the burners 24. The plurality of conduits 34 joins together at a
common inlet 36 and each of the conduits 34 is fluidly coupled to
the input 28 of a respective one of the burners 24. A plurality of
supports 37 is each coupled between a respective pair of the legs
18 and the conduits 34 are coupled to a respective support 37.
[0021] A plurality of valves 38 is each fluidly coupled to a
respective one of the conduits 34 and each of the valves 38 is in
fluid communication with a respective one of the burners 24. Each
of the valves 38 is positionable in an open condition to pass fuel
to the respective burner for combustion. Conversely, each of the
valves 38 is positionable in a closed condition to inhibit passing
the fuel to the respective burners 24. Each of the valves 38 has a
lever 40 that is movably coupled thereto for moving the valves 38
between the open condition and the closed condition. Additionally,
each of the valves 38 may comprise a gas valve that is approved for
use with propane fuel.
[0022] A plurality of regulators 41 is each fluidly coupled to the
input 28 of a respective one of the burners 24 and each of the
regulators 41 comprises a gas regulator approved for use with
propane. A plurality of grates 42 is each coupled between a
respective pair of the first members 20 for having an object being
positioned thereon. Each of the grates 42 is positioned between a
respective pair of the burners 24. Additionally, each of the grates
42 is comprised of a plurality of intersecting members 44 such that
each of the grates 42 passes air therethrough. Each of the grates
42 is comprised of a heat resistant material such as steel, iron or
other metallic material.
[0023] A supply hose 46 is fluidly coupled to the plurality of
conduits 34 and the supply hose 46 is attachable to a fuel source
48. In this way the supply hose 46 can deliver the fuel in the fuel
source 48 to the conduits 34. The supply hose 46 has a first end 50
and a second end 52, and the first end 50 is fluidly coupled to the
common inlet 36 of the plurality of conduits 34. A supply regulator
54 is provided and the supply regulator 54 is fluidly coupled to
the second end 52 of the supply hose 46. The supply regulator 54
engages the fuel source 48 to deliver the fuel into the supply hose
46. The supply regulator 54 may comprise a propane regulator
approved for use on a liquid propane tank. Additionally, the fuel
source 48 may be a liquid propane tank ranging between 20.0 pounds
and 100.0 pounds.
[0024] In use, the table 12 is placed in a desired location for
cooking, such as a fairground, an outdoor festival or any other
occasion that would commonly see the use of gas grills, charcoal
grills and other types of portable 12 cookers. The supply regulator
54 is coupled to the fuel source 48 and selected ones of the valves
38 are opened. In this way one or more of the burners 24 can be
employed for cooking. Additionally, objects can be positioned on
either of the grates 42 for storage without exposing the objects to
heat.
[0025] With respect to the above description then, it is to be
realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts
of an embodiment enabled by the disclosure, to include variations
in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation,
assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one
skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those
illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are
intended to be encompassed by an embodiment of the disclosure.
[0026] Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only
of the principles of the disclosure. Further, since numerous
modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in
the art, it is not desired to limit the disclosure to the exact
construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly,
all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to,
falling within the scope of the disclosure. In this patent
document, the word "comprising" is used in its non-limiting sense
to mean that items following the word are included, but items not
specifically mentioned are not excluded. A reference to an element
by the indefinite article "a" does not exclude the possibility that
more than one of the element is present, unless the context clearly
requires that there be only one of the elements.
