US Patent 10219653 Foldable and portable grilling apparatus

A foldable and portable grilling unit includes a body and a plurality of upright corner leg members which together support the body spaced above a support surface. The body has front and back walls and opposite side walls extending between them so as to form a grilling chamber when the body is in an erected operational configuration. The side walls each are formed by a pair of panels, inner hinged connections between the panels of each pair, and outer hinged connections of the panels of each pair to the front and back walls. The panels of each side wall may be folded to convert the body to a compacted portable configuration in which it may be transported in a container sleeve by a user.
