Abstract:

A grill of the type cut from a steel barrel the rough edges of which are faced with angle iron. Front and rear angle irons are supported by legs. The horizontal rear angle irons provide flat surfaces for wings of the lid hinges. Access to the top of the grate is through a grate door and a lower door with arcuate bottom allows raking out of ash with an arcuate lower edged removal tool stored on the grill. Wheels at one end provide ease of transport because a shelf at the other end serves also as a lifting handle. The draft regulation damper hinges to the top of a chimney. The angle iron facing members at the front and back of the lower barrel section support the legs and so serve as special frame members. These special frame members have projecting portions on the opposite end of the grill from the wheels. It is to these projecting portions which are strongly of one piece with the special frame members that a handle is attached for lifting one end of the grill during transport thereof across the ground.
