| 20110083658 | DISPOSABLE CHARCOAL LIGHTING APPARATUS - A portable, disposable apparatus for lighting charcoal or other flammable material contained therein. A central compartment generally in the shape of a tube extends from a bottom portion of the apparatus up through the center of the main body of the apparatus. An ignition strip extends within the tube. The apparatus is made of paper or paperboard or other lightweight flammable, yet durable, material. The apparatus is used by lighting the bottom of the ignition strip, which thereby starts a fire within the central compartment. The fire in the tube then ignites the charcoal within the main body of the apparatus. As the charcoal burns, the apparatus eventually burns away, leaving the burning charcoal in a pile. | 04-14-2011 |
