Abstract

A tray assembly for a barbecue device has a support rod composed of two telescoping tubes, multiple sleeves and multiple trays. Each sleeve is pivotally and detachably mounted on the support rod and has at least one lateral rod extending from the sleeve. The multiple trays are individually and detachably mounted on the lateral rods of the sleeves, wherein each of the multiple trays has a connecting tube engaged one corresponding lateral rod. By rotating the sleeves, the multiple trays can be adjusted to different positions in horizontal plane. By adjusting the two telescoping tubes, the multiple trays can be adjusted in height. Therefore, the tray assembly is convenient and versatile in use. Moreover, all elements in the tray assembly can be detached so that the tray assembly is also convenient for store.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A tray assembly for a barbecue device comprising: 
 a support rod  1  composed of an upper tube  11  and a lower tube  12  telescoping with each other;    multiple sleeves  2  pivotally and detachably mounted on the upper tube  11  of the supporting rod  1 , wherein each of the multiple sleeves  2  has at least one lateral rod  21  extending from the sleeve  2  and a screw nub detachably fixing the sleeve  2  on the upper tube  11 ; and    multiple trays  3  individually and detachably mounted on the lateral rods  21  of the sleeves  2 , wherein each of the multiple trays  3  has a connecting tube  31  engaged one lateral rod  21  on the corresponding sleeve  2 .    
   
   
       2 . The tray assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the upper tube  11  has a top; and 
 the tray assembly has a barbecue stove  4  with a socket  41  to engage the top of the upper tube  11 .    
   
   
       3 . The tray assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the support rod  1  has a bottom end; and 
 the tray assembly further has a tripod  5  to detachably combine with the bottom end of the support rod  1 .    
   
   
       4 . The tray assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the support rod  1  has a bottom end; and 
 the tray assembly further has a dome-shaped base  6  to detachably combine with the bottom end of the support rod  1 .    
   
   
       5 . The tray assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein each of the multiple sleeves  2  has two lateral rods  21  oppositely formed on the sleeve  2 .  
   
   
       6 . The tray assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein each of the multiple the sleeves  2  has three lateral rods  21 .  
   
   
       7 . The tray assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein each of the multiple sleeves  2  has four lateral rods  21 .  
   
   
       8 . The tray assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein each of the multiple sleeves  2  comprises two arched brackets  28 ,  29  and a threaded rod  27  combining the two arched brackets  28 ,  29  together; 
 each of the two brackets  28 ,  29  is half-circular and has    two distal ends;    an outer periphery;    a wing  283 ,  293  formed on one of the distal end of the arched bracket  28 ,  29 ; and    a lateral rod  284 ,  294  attached to the outer periphery, extended outward and upwardly, and having a top edge and an angle less than 90° C. defined between the outer periphery and the top edge of the lateral rod  284 ,  294 ;    wherein, one of the two arched bracket  28  has a tongue  281  perpendicularly formed on the other distal end opposite to the distal end having the wing  283 ; the other of the two arched bracket  29  has a slit  291  defined in the other distal end opposite to the distal end having the wing  293  to engage the tongue  281 .    
   
   
       9 . The tray assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein each lateral rod  21  and each connecting tube  31  are polygonal.
