  • Publication number: 20260272222
    Abstract: A foldable griddle including first, second, and third chassis portions. The first and second chassis portions pivotable relative to the second chassis portion between open and packed states. A first burner support frame is pivotally attached to the first chassis portion and operably slidably supported by the second chassis portion for lateral and vertical movement relative to the second chassis portion. A second burner support frame is pivotally attached to the second chassis portion and operably slidably supported by the second chassis portion for lateral and vertical movement relative to the second chassis portion. Transitioning from the open state to the packed state adjusts the vertical positioning of the first burner support frame relative to the second burner support frame and reduces a distance between laterally outermost extents of the first and second burner support frames.
