Abstract
A barbecue grill for cooking an object. The barbecue grill includes a first resistive element subassembly energizable for generating heat to cook the object, and a second resistive element subassembly energizable for generating heat to cook the object.
Claims6
A barbecue grill for cooking an object, the barbecue grill comprising:
- a first resistive element subassembly energizable for generating heat to cook the object;
- a second resistive element subassembly energizable for generating heat to cook the object;
- the barbecue grill being movable between at least one grill position, in which the grill is located for grilling the object, and at least one broil position, in which the grill is located for broiling the object, the grill being energizable in said at least one grill position and in said at least one broil position;
- a frame to which the first and second resistive element subassemblies are attached such that the frame supports the first and second resistive element subassemblies;
- a bus bar positioned at least partially in the frame, for distributing electrical power to the first and second resistive element subassemblies;
- and
- the bus bar being partially located in tubes attached to two opposing sides of the frame respectively to connect with supply wires at respective supply connections in the tubes.

A barbecue assembly for cooking an object, the barbecue assembly comprising:
- a barbecue grill comprising:
- a first resistive element subassembly energizable for generating heat to cook the object;
- a second resistive element subassembly energizable for generating heat to cook the object;
- a tub in which the barbecue grill is mounted, for supporting the barbecue grill in at least one predetermined position;
- a grill frame movable relative to the tub to which the resistive element subassemblies are attached, for supporting the resistive subassemblies;
- a bus bar at least partially positioned in the grill frame, for distributing electrical power to the first and second resistive element subassemblies;
- and
- the bus bar being partially located in tubes attached to two opposing sides of the grill frame respectively to connect with supply wires at respective supply connections in the tubes.
