Abstract:
A gas grill assembly comprising a housing, a grill, and a retractor arm assembly. The housing encloses the assembly and is permanently mountable in the wall of a recreation vehicle. The retractor arm assembly supports the grill and is connected between the housing and the grill such that the grill can be extended from the housing for use. The grill is advantageously mounted to the retractor arm assembly by means of a post such that, in this extended position, the grill can rotate approximately 180 degrees in either direction about a vertical axis. The retractor arm assembly is operably coupled to the main gas supply valve such that the valve is rotated to an open position as the grill is pulled out of the housing for use. Conversely, when the grill is pushed back into the housing, the movement of the retractor arm assembly rotates the gas supply valve to a closed position, thereby automatically shutting off the supply of gas to the grill.
