Systems and methods are presented herein for a mounting apparatus configured to arrange a retractable kitchen within a vehicle enclosure. The mounting apparatus comprises a first slot configured to accommodate an alignment protrusion of a kitchen module. The mounting apparatus further comprises a second slot configured to accommodate a locking assembly, which, when actuated into a locking position prevents translation of the kitchen module along the second slot. The mounting apparatus shall be arranged on a bottom side of the vehicle enclosure and shall have a retractable kitchen module fixedly attached to the mounting apparatus. The retractable kitchen module comprises a kitchen module enclosure configured to move from a stored position to an extended positioned, and a kitchen work surface configured to extend away from the front side of the vehicle enclosure.

A bracket assembly is put to use in a cooking apparatus or else a food service table support system for attaching to a rail of a balcony or deck, or a tailgate of a pickup truck (or other vehicle, even the tailgate of a UTV or trailer, tube inserted inside the hitch receiver of a motor vehicle, or hung off the side of a passenger door of a motor vehicle.

A kitchen accessory for a recreational vehicle includes a box configured to be mounted within a side wall of the recreational vehicle. A vertical support post is anchored within said box and a drop-down support assembly is rotationally mounted on the vertical support post. The drop-down support assembly includes a plate on which a cooking component is mounted. The cooking component includes a stove and an optional table extension. The drop-down support assembly is configured to extend the cooking component from the box to a deployed position for use outside the vehicle, and to retract the cooking component completely into the box in a stowed position for storage within the box. An additional table assembly can be pivotably mounted to the box for storage within and extension outside the box. An auxiliary support component can be mounted on the vertical support post to support an auxiliary device, such as a television.

A gas range for a vehicle contains a gas range height. The gas range contains an oven having an oven cavity, and a cooktop located above the oven. The cooktop contains a gas burner having a gas burner height, and a cooking grate above the gas burner. The cooking grate has a cooking grate height. A gas oxidation height is the difference between the cooking grate height and the gas burner height. The gas oxidation height is from about 10 mm to about 40 mm and the gas range height is from about 350 mm to about 450 mm. A gas range also contains an oven, a cooktop and a lid. The oven contains an oven cavity and a plurality of oven exhausts. The cooktop contains a gas burner and a cooking grate above the gas burner. The lid covers the cooking grate and the lid has an open position and a closed position. An oven exhaust leads from the oven cavity to the cooktop and when the lid is closed the lid forms a flat top. A counter may contain the gas oven and a vehicle may contain the gas oven and/or the counter.

A work area is provided and includes a substantially horizontal work surface that can be translocated between a first location and a second location. The work area includes one or more tracks along which the work area can be moved between a first and a second location and the work surface remains slidably connected and substantially horizontal during translocation between a first location and second location. The first location may include a floor above which the work surface is situated when the work area is located in the first location and the second location may include a base above which the work surface is situated when it is in the second location. The floor and the base are not level with each other and when the work surface is located in the first location, its height above the floor is substantially the same as its height above the base when it is in the second location.

An accessory mounting arrangement is provided for vehicles wherein a removable accessory is mounted to the vehicle via a projecting arm which is slidably received within a tubular element, attached to the chassis and floor structure of the vehicle along a vehicle side, and abutting a structural wall which limits sliding motion of the projecting arm. Preferably, the tubular element is formed as a conventionally sized hitch receiver, and the projecting arm is telescopically received in the tubular element at one end of the arm, while the other end of the arm includes a vertical adjustment structure which supports a platform for positively locating and supporting devices for supplemental function, such as a bar-b-que grill. Multiple tubular elements can be so mounted along the side of the vehicle, so as to provide multiple alternative and cooperative accessory ports, and removable covers are provided for aesthetic benefits when a given port is not in use.
