As shown in FIG. 1A, a barbecue grill assembly 1 includes a barbecue unit 11, a pedestal 12, four bolts 13 and a plate construction 14. Wherein the barbecue unit 11 may cook food or have some outdoor barbecue. The pedestal 12 is disposed beneath the barbecue unit 11 and supports the barbecue unit 11. The pedestal 12 includes four holes 121 and each of the hole 121 is disposed corresponding to a bolt 13. The bolt 13 contains a body 131 and a head 132. The body 131 has threads on it which connects to the head 132. The bolt 13 might be fitted to the hole 121 by fastening the body 131 into the hole 121 by taking advantage of the threads; in this manner, the bolts 13 might be matched with and fixed on the holes 121. Moreover, the bolts 13 might be tightened or released by rotating the heads 132. Besides, the plate construction 14 includes four L-shaped slots 143; each slot 143 is disposed at side of the plate construction 14 and corresponding to the bolt 13. When installing the plate construction 14, it is needed to align the opening of the four L-shaped slots 143 with the bodies 131 of the bolts 13 and move the bodies 131 to reach bottom of the slots 143 along with the L-shaped path, and then the plate construction 14 might be combined and fixed on the pedestal 12. When disassembling the plate construction 14, it is needed to grasp at the plate construction 14 by user's hand and separate the slots 143 from the bodies 131 along with L-shaped path, and then the plate construction 14 might be easily and conveniently disassembled. In this manner, the plate construction 14 and pedestal 12 might be installed or disassembled by means of fitting or separating the bodies 131 and the slots 143.
Next, please refer to FIG. 1B, FIG. 1B is the second installing diagram of the barbecue grill assembly of the 1st embodiment in present invention. As shown in FIG. 1B, the barbecue grill assembly 1 further includes a first handle 15 disposed at side of the barbecue grill assembly 1. The plate construction 14 further includes a second handle 142 and four leg unit 141. The second handle 142 might be fastened and jammed by the first handle 15. The leg unit 141 is pivotally disposed under the plate construction 14 so as to rotate around the contact area of the plate construction 14 and the leg unit 141. When rotating the leg unit 141 and making it parallel to the plate construction 14, the leg unit 141 might be received. When rotating the leg unit 141 and making it perpendicular to the plate construction 14, the leg unit 141 might be unfolded. Besides, as shown in the enlarged diagram of FIG. 1B, each leg unit 141 includes a first leg 1411 and a second leg 1412. One end of the first leg 1411 is pivotally disposed on the plate construction 14; the second leg 1412 is overlapping disposed in the first leg 1411 and might be stretched out from or received in the first leg 1411 by slipping.

In this manner, the plate construction 14 might be treated as dining table to place food, cooker, sauce or dishes. It's definitely convenient to barbecue.
Additionally, the reason why plate construction 14 and bolt 13 might be fastened is: the body 131 might be a cylinder and the diameter W1 of the body 131 is small than the width W2 of the slot 143. Thus, the body 131 might be disposed penetrating the slot 143 and then the body 131 might be linked up with the slot 143 by disposing across the slot 143. Besides, the diameter W1 or the width W2 might be modulate to make them close fit, i.e. the diameter W1 being slightly small than width W2, so that the plate construction 14 and the pedestal 12 as a result might be firmly fixed without wavering and falling off. Moreover, in the other embodiment, the body 131 might be designed as square column, pentagonal column or hexagonal column; correspondingly, the hole 121 might be designed as quadrilateral, pentagon or hexagon. In these circumstances, the aforementioned benefits can also be achieved if the body 131 is disposed across the hole 121 by close fitting.
