Abstract
A device has a platform with an upward facing receptacle therein. A base supports the platform at a predetermined height and a fuel burning insert is removably retained in the upward facing receptacle by retention means affixed to the receptacle. The fuel burning insert provides for combustion of liquid fuel proximate the predetermined height of the platform. The fuel burning insert may be removed, exchanged, and refilled by a user without tools.
Claims20
A device comprising:
- a horizontal platform with an upper planar surface having an upward facing receptacle therein;
- a base supporting the platform at a predetermined height;
- and
- a fuel burning insert removably retained in the upward facing receptacle by retention means affixed to the receptacle;
- wherein the fuel burning insert provides for combustion of liquid fuel proximate the predetermined height of the platform;
- wherein the fuel burning insert may be removed, exchanged, and refilled by a user without tools.

A device comprising:
- a base having a width at a bottom end that is greater than a width at an upper end;
- a horizontal platform with an upper square, planar surface suspended proximate the upper end of the base and defining a receptacle therein;
- and
- a fuel burning insert in the receptacle having a fuel reservoir below an upper surface of the platform;
- wherein the fuel burning insert is retained in the receptacle with sufficient restraint that the fuel burning insert will not be dislodged by an upset of the base but may still be removed without tools by a user.
2 more elements
A device comprising:
- a liquid fuel burning insert comprising a fuel reservoir;
- a receptacle defined in a horizontal platform with an upper, planar surface that suspends the liquid fuel burning insert such that combustion of fuel takes place substantially at or above the level of the upper, planar surface with the fuel reservoir substantially below the upper, planar surface;
- and
- a base having a taper from a bottom end to a top end, the top end fitting within a peripheral skirt of the horizontal platform and supporting the horizontal platform at a predetermined height;
- wherein the receptacle allows removal of the liquid fuel burning insert by user applied traction but provides sufficient restraint of the liquid fuel burning insert such that the liquid fuel burning insert is not dislodged from the receptacle if the base overturns.
