Abstract
An apparatus includes a bottom, a top including an opening, a first sidewall coupled to the top and the bottom, a second sidewall coupled to the top and the bottom, an interior defined at least in part by the bottom, the top, the first sidewall, and the second sidewall, and a central vertical axis. A first vane couples to the first sidewall, within the interior, and follows a spiral trajectory about the central vertical axis in a direction between the bottom and the top. A second vane couples to the second sidewall, within the interior, and follows a spiral trajectory about the central vertical axis in the direction between the bottom and the top.
Claims20
A fire pit comprising:
- a bottom;
- a top including an opening;
- a first central axis;
- a first half-circular section including:
- a second central axis spaced apart from the first central axis in a first direction,
- a first interior surface,
- a first bottom surface coupled to the bottom, and
- a first top surface coupled to the top;
- a second half-circular section including:
- a third central axis spaced apart from the first central axis in a second direction that is opposite the first direction,
- a second interior surface,
- a second bottom surface coupled to the bottom, and
- a second top surface coupled to the top;
- a first inlet formed between the top, the bottom, the first half-circular section, and the second half-circular section;
- and
- a second inlet formed between the top, the bottom, the first half-circular section, and the second half-circular section.
A device comprising:
- a first half-circular sidewall including:
- a first central axis,
- a first interior surface,
- a first top surface,
- a first bottom surface,
- a first side, and
- a second side;
- a second half-circular sidewall including:
- a second central axis offset from the first central axis,
- a second interior surface,
- a second top surface,
- a second bottom surface,
- a third side, and
- a fourth side;
- a first vane extending along the first interior surface;
- a second vane extending along the second interior surface;
- a bottom coupled to the first bottom surface and the second bottom surface;
- a top coupled to the first top surface and the second top surface;
- a first inlet formed between the bottom, the top, the first side, and the third side;
- and
- a second inlet formed between the bottom, the top, the second side, and the fourth side.
An apparatus comprising:
- a bottom;
- a top including an opening;
- a first half-circular sidewall coupled to the top and the bottom, the first half-circular sidewall having a first central axis;
- a second half-circular sidewall coupled to the top and the bottom, the second half-circular sidewall having a second central axis offset from the first central axis;
- an interior defined at least in part by the bottom, the top, the first half-circular sidewall, and the second half-circular sidewall;
- a first vane coupled to the first half-circular sidewall, within the interior, the first vane following a spiral trajectory about the first central axis;
- and
- a second vane coupled to the second half-circular sidewall, within the interior, the second vane following a spiral trajectory about the second central axis.
