KITCHEN-CONNECTED INDOOR STATIONARY SOLAR COOKING DEVICE
A modular kitchen-connected indoor stationary solar cooking device (102) is disclosed. The solar cooking device (102) includes a housing (202), a thermal battery (204) disposed in the housing (202) and adapted to store thermal energy, and a first heater (206) disposed to be in contact with the thermal battery (204). The first heater (206) is coupled to a solar array (104) and adapted to receive solar energy for charging the thermal battery (204). The solar cooking device (102) includes a second heater (208) disposed to be in contact with the thermal battery (204). The second heater (208) is coupled to a mains supply and adapted to receive electrical supply for charging the thermal battery (204). The solar cooking device (102) includes a heat control assembly (210) disposed on a cooktop (802) and adapted to accommodate a cooking vessel. The heat control assembly (210) is adapted to rotate for controlling a heat supply for cooking in the cooking vessel.

Portable warming assembly
A portable warming assembly includes a canister and a lid that is removably attachable to the canister for closing the canister. A roll of solid fuel is positionable inside of the canister and the roll of solid fuel is comprised of a combustible material. A container containing a liquid fuel is provided and a pre-determined amount of the liquid fuel is pourable onto the roll of solid fuel when the roll of solid fuel is positioned in the canister. In this way the liquid fuel enhances combustion of the roll of solid fuel. A plurality of rocks is provided and each of the rocks is positionable on top of the roll of solid fuel when the roll of solid fuel is positioned in the canister. Each of the rocks heats the ambient air when the roll of solid fuel and the liquid fuel are burned for heating an interior space.

Cooking grill using pellet fuel
A cooking grill includes a container defining a combustion area and a cooking surface over the combustion area. The grill features a pellet burner unit disposed within the container under the cooking surface and a pellet feeding device arranged to feed pellets into the burner unit. The burner unit comprises a trough into which the pellets are fed. The trough is mounted in a movable support which can be pulled out from within the container. The feeding device includes a removable cartridge for containing pellets and a receptacle for receiving the cartridge inserted thereon so that the cartridge supplies pellets for transfer to the pellet burner unit. In addition, a gas burner system is arranged in the container adjacent to the pellet burner unit so as to apply heat from the gas burner system to the cooking surface in addition to or as an alternative to the pellet burner unit.
