ABSTRACT:
A collapsible camp stove having a frame supporting a grate therein for cooking meat or other food. A pair of end plates attached to the frame by hinges which allow pivotal movement of the end plates between a collapsed and erected position. A latching means locks the end plates in the collapsed or erected positions. The grate is of expanded metal to provide better gripping of the food items. The frame has a handle for convenient carrying of the camp stove when collapsed. The handle may be recessed flush with the frame when not in use. A removable cooking plate is provided which contains one or more apertures for exposing less than all of a pot or pan seated over the aperture or apertures to direct heat of the camp fire while reducing exposure of the cook or sides of the pots or pans from direct exposure to the camp fire. The bottom edges of the end plates opposite the hinges have crescent cutouts to provide four point footing for the camp stove. The frame is designed in conjunction with the teardrop hinge plates to collapse into a compact, flat carrier secured by the latching means with rounded ends for safe handling. The cooking plate, when not in use, may be set up as a wind break along one side of the camp stove. The cooking plate has a convenient handle which lies flush on the cooking plate when the cooking plate is in place over the grate for cooking. The cooking plate is seated on the grate for storage and is held by the end plates in the collapse position of the camp stove.
