Abstract:
A lightweight, portable cooking unit for use in tents is disclosed. It is designed for use in the mountains, where lightweight equipment is essential. The unit will fit in a backpack when disassembled. The heating chamber has a lower burner unit to hold a common mountain stove burner such as those developed by MOUNTAIN SAFETY RESEARCH. The heating chamber vents to a stack that transmits the combustion gases and moisture safely outside the tent by means of a tent roof jack that protects the fabric from the heat. The stack is also fed with ambient air that mixes with the combustion to cool the exhaust to safe levels. The device can be disassembled and stored in a compact package.
