Patent ID: 11796177

Abstract:
The present disclosure describes a chimney vent cap for controlling the flow of exhaust gases exiting a vent stack or chimney of a grill, cooker, smoker, or other device. The chimney vent cap is adapted to receive and reside about the vent stack or chimney and is configurable in multiple configurations using single plane movement and absent insertion of a user's hand into the exhaust gases, with each configuration corresponding to a particular flow rate of exhaust gases through the chimney vent cap and, hence, through the vent stack or chimney. The chimney vent cap is adapted to retain such configuration absent user intervention during movement of the vent stack or chimney caused by opening and closing of the lid or top of such grill, cooker, smoker, or other device, such that the flow rate of exhaust gases after such movement is substantially the same as prior to such movement.
