Appl. No.:

13/623447

Inventors:

Michael Chance - Suwanee GA, US

International Classification:

F16M 13/02
F16M 13/00

US Classification:

2482319, 248315

Abstract:

Disclosed is a device comprised of a one-piece fabricated light holder structure attachable to a variety of cooking grills. The disclosed light holder comprises a rigid, symmetrically-bent channel member, at least one horizontally-oriented attachment arm culminating in a fastening tab, and at least one pre-drilled hole in each fastening tab, said holes, corresponding to the spacing of fastening holes commonly used to attach a handle to the lid of a cooking grill. The pre-drilled holes of the fastening tab of the light holder allow the light holder to easily be fastened and co-located in holes provided for the original manufacturer's grill cover handle. An appropriately-sized, batter-powered light fixture is then securely placed within the channel segment of the light holder.

A47J 37/07
F21V 33/00

Abstract:

Disclosed is a method for providing immediate, direct illumination of the cooking surface of an outdoor cooking grill. The method employs the installation of a one-piece metallic light fixture holder attachable to cooking grills which have a hinged, curvilinear grill cover. The light fixture holder comprises a rigid, symmetrically-bent channel member, at least one horizontally-oriented curvilinear attachment arm, fastening tabs, and at least one pre-drilled hole in each fastening tab, said holes, corresponding to holes commonly used to attach a handle to a grill cover. The pre-drilled holes of the fastening tab of the light fixture holder allow the light fixture holder to be easily fastened and co-located in holes provided for the original manufacturer's grill cover handle. An appropriately-sized LED or battery-powered light fixture is then securely placed within the channel segment of the light fixture holder.

Appl. No.:

14/742963

Inventors:

Michael Chance - Suwanee GA, US

International Classification:

A47J 37/06

Abstract:

The inventive concept presents a device and method to better provide cooking options to a user of an outdoor cooking grill. The disclosed “Plate Setter” is a reversible, circular plate-like structure having three legs integral to, and spaced symmetrically about, the circumference of the Plate Setter. The reversible structure is characterized by two integral, back-to-back cooking surfaces. Disclosed is a first cooking surface consisting of a plurality of parallel, raised ribs elevated above a walled, circular plate bed. The second cooking surface comprises a flat cooking surface reversible from, and precisely opposite to the first cooking surface. The second cooking surface further consists of three raised beams which intersect at a common point on the surface of the second cooking surface. The raised beams provide structural strength and also partition the second cooking surface into three equal cooking sections.
