Abstract: A particulate fuel grill dust-blocking device effectively collects dust particles generated during combustion of biomass particles to ensure that the barbecue ingredients are hygienic and clean. The particulate fuel grill dust-blocking device includes a burner; a barbecue apparatus; and a meshed plate disposed between the burner and the barbecue apparatus, the meshed plate being a dust particle filter screen composed of a single or multiple layer(s).

Abstract: The present invention aims to provide an environmentally friendly barbecue apparatus that can prevent oil droplets from falling onto the fuel. The barbecue apparatus comprises a barbecue grill; the barbecue grill, under which is an oil collection device comprising an oil sump, comprises a plurality of spaced strip supports; the oil sump, provided under an interval between the corresponding supports or provided below the supports, is provided obliquely with respect to the horizontal direction, with its lower end connected to an oil tank. Ingredients can be heated directly. With the oil tank placed below the barbecue grill to collect the oil secreted by the ingredients themselves during the barbecue process, oil droplets are prevented from falling onto the fuel to cause smoke and odor, with the advantages of high barbecue efficiency and health and environmental protection.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to providing a spherical grilling apparatus. The spherical grilling apparatus comprises a spherical frame, which has a brazier inside and a supporting device outside; a half portion of the upper half of the spherical frame is a movable door, which can be rotated around the horizontal axis to such a position that this half portion substantially overlaps with the other half portion of the upper half of the spherical frame. The spherical frame provided outside the brazier can achieve the effect of isolation; the movable door of the spherical frame is easy to open, allowing easy addition of fuel to the brazier; the inner and outer diameters of the movable door are consistent with those of the frame body, so that the appearance of the apparatus is regular and beautiful.
