ABSTRACT:
A charcoal lighter device having a tubular housing adapted to rest vertically on a support surface and a handle assembly positioned outside of and attached to the housing. A charcoal support grate fits in the housing and has a first edge pivoted in the housing and a second edge. A grate support finger is connected to the handle assembly and is positionable, by the movement of the handle assembly relative to the housing, between an extended grate support position and a grate release position. The second edge is positionable on the grate support finger such that the grate is in a generally horizontal charcoal support position spaced above the support surface when the grate support finger is in its grate support position, and the second edge pivots downwardly from said generally horizontal position to a charcoal dumping position when the grate support finger is subsequently moved to its grate release position, thereby safely dumping the lit charcoal into a barbecue grill positioned beneath it.
