Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for lighting charcoal with the help of an inflammable, renewable material, in particular a wood material.
- ignition aids For lighting charcoal, different ignition aids are used, which either consist of an easily flammable, solid, pasty or liquid fuel or a carrier impregnated with a highly flammable fuel.
- a disadvantage of these known ignition aids is that they form localized sources of fire, which provide for individual embers in the accumulated charcoal, from which an ember stick covering the entire charcoal must be fanned, which usually requires the use of blown air.
- ignition aids should meet the corresponding requirements with regard to taste and odor neutrality and the safety of their use in connection with food.
- the invention is therefore based on the object to design a device for lighting charcoal of the type described so that a uniform glow stick is achieved regardless of the skill of a person cheering on the charcoal, without having to use blown air.
- the invention solves the problem by a charcoal receiving cage, which has a peripheral wall provided with through openings made of the renewable material.
- the charcoal to be fired is held together within the peripheral wall of the cage and heated from all sides over the burning peripheral wall, the through openings in the peripheral wall not providing a good supply Ensure only the ignited cage, but also the charcoal enclosed by the cage, with combustion air.
- the combustion of the circumferential wall of the cage results in a bundling of the heat in the area of the charcoal surrounded by the cage, which ensures an embers stick which evenly penetrates the accumulated charcoal without having to use additional blown air.
- the average volume of charcoal to be used is at least roughly predefined via the holding volume of the cage and the amount of material used to form the peripheral wall of the cage can be matched to this amount of charcoal, overall there are very advantageous conditions for firing up the charcoal required for a grilling process.
- the layout of the cage is not critical for the successful lighting of the charcoal, a cage with a polygonal peripheral wall is recommended, which is composed of straight walls is because it is generally easier to manufacture straight walls.
- Such walls can consist of plates into which the passage openings for the combustion air are punched, drilled or milled.
- the walls of the peripheral wall of the cage can advantageously consist of bars of a renewable material spaced one above the other, so that the through openings between the bars result automatically.
- the joining of the bars to cage walls can be done differently, for example by attaching the bars to corner posts.
- particularly simple construction conditions result if the ends of the bars of adjacent cage walls alternately lie one above the other and are connected to one another, so that the bars of one wall serve as spacers for the bars of the other wall.
- the stacked rod ends also require sufficient cohesion during the firing of the charcoal due to the larger amount of fuel in the corner area.
- the bars of adjacent cage walls in the superimposed end area can be connected to each other in different ways, there are particularly advantageous constructional relationships when the ends of the superimposed bars are connected through them penetrating wooden dowels, because in this case the connecting means also burn without residue.
- the wooden dowels can be held non-positively in the through holes in the bars that receive them in order to avoid glue connections.
- a floor for the cage there is no need for a floor for the cage if the cage is placed on a grate that receives the charcoal.
- a cage floor has advantages because the coal is held by the cage floor before it is burned. Such cages can therefore form a packaging unit together with the charcoal. So that a simple, less expensive floor can be used for the cage, the cage can have a bottom made of cardboard, which is preferably held between the two bottom shelf positions when the cage walls are constructed from bars.
- Ignition aids can be used to ignite the cage which receives the charcoal.
- the peripheral wall of the cage can be impregnated at least in regions with an easily flammable fuel, wax being a natural fuel.
- the cage it is also possible for the cage to have ignition aids in the corner regions at the bottom, which are impregnated with an easily flammable fuel and which consist, for example, of cotton cords soaked in wax.
- the peripheral wall will generally consist of wood material. However, if there is sufficient availability, it is also advantageous to process other renewable raw materials, such as straw or reeds.
- FIG. 1 shows a device according to the invention for lighting charcoal in a partially broken open, simplified side view
- FIG. 2 shows the device according to FIG. 1 in a top view.
- the device shown consists according to the illustrated embodiment of a cage with a square peripheral wall plan 1 from each other in pairs opposite cage walls 2 and 3.
- These cage walls 2 and 3 are each composed of rods 4 of sawn wooden strips, which are spaced one above the other are.
- the ends of the bars 4 of adjacent cage walls 2, 3 lie alternately one above the other, as can be seen in FIG. 1.
- wooden dowels 5 are provided, which pass through the bars 4 in aligned through holes 6.
- a non-positive holding of the wooden dowels 5 in the through bores 6 is sufficient.
- the cage 1 is not subjected to tension in the direction of the wooden dowels 5.
- a bottom 9 made of cardboard is inserted, which is also penetrated by the wooden dowels 6.
- the charcoal to be fired can thus be poured onto the floor 9 between the cage walls 2, 3 before the cage walls 2, 3 are lit.
- ignition aids 10 can be provided, which consist, for example, of a cotton cord 11 soaked in wax, each looped in the corner regions of the cage 1 on the bottom side around the corner posts formed by the superimposed rod ends and by twisting the cord end is held together. By igniting such ignition aids 10 in the area of all cage corners, a sufficiently uniform ignition of the peripheral wall 1 of the cage is ensured.
- Another way to ignite the peripheral wall 1 of the cage is to impregnate the rods 4 of the individual cage walls 2, 3 with an easily flammable fuel, preferably wax, so that the rods 4 themselves can be easily ignited. In this case, it is sufficient to soak the lower shelf layers, because the rising flames and smoke gases ensure rapid ignition of the upper shelf layers.
- an easily flammable fuel preferably wax
- the invention is of course not limited to the illustrated embodiment, because it is only important to manufacture a cage with a passage for the combustion air forming peripheral wall, which is a sufficient fuel to fire the charcoal and made of a renewable, easily available material consists of how it is formed in particular by wood.
- the peripheral wall can also be made of other combustible materials, such as reeds or straw. It is only necessary to ensure that the circumferential wall provides a sufficient fuel supply in order to fire up a quantity of charcoal, determined by the holding volume of the cage, to embers.
- the outline shape of the cage does not play an essential role, although a square outline shape ensures simple manufacturing conditions, especially if the walls are composed of individual bars.
