Abstract

A surround for a fire pit is provided. The surround includes a frame with at least three legs, each leg having a connector on top. The surround also includes a number of tabletop sections, each configured to connect to the respective connectors of at least two of the legs, and also configured to quick disconnect from the connectors. The surround also includes a number of bezel sections, each extending radially inward from the inward facing side of a tabletop section. The inner edges of the bezel sections collectively define an inner perimeter of the surround.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A surround for a fire pit, comprising:
a frame comprising:
at least three legs, each leg of the at least three legs comprising a connector disposed at a top portion;

a plurality of tabletop sections, each tabletop section having lateral ends, an inward facing side, and an outward facing side and being configured to connect to the respective connectors of at least two of the legs and also configured to quick disconnect from the connector of said at least two of the legs; and
a plurality of bezel sections, each bezel section of the plurality of bezel sections comprising a plurality of ventilation holes and extending radially inward from the inward facing side of a tabletop section of the plurality of tabletop sections, each bezel section having lateral ends, an inner edge, and an outer edge, the inner edge of the plurality of bezel sections defining an inner perimeter of the surround.

2. The surround of claim 1 , wherein each bezel section removably extends from least one of the tabletop sections.

3. The surround of claim 1 , further comprising a fire pit support comprising a plurality of support arms extending radially inward from the at least three legs to a central intersection.

4. The surround of claim 1 , wherein the inner edge of the plurality of bezel sections form an entirely enclosed inner perimeter of the surround.

5. A surround for a fire pit, comprising:
a frame comprising:
at least three legs, each leg of the at least three legs comprising a connector disposed at a top portion;

a plurality of tabletop sections, each tabletop section having lateral ends, an inward facing side, and an outward facing side and being configured to connect to the respective connectors of at least two of the legs and also configured to quick disconnect from the connector of said at least two of the legs;
a plurality of bezel sections, each bezel section of the plurality of bezel sections extending radially inward from the inward facing side of a tabletop section of the plurality of tabletop sections, each bezel section having lateral ends, an inner edge, and an outer edge, the inner edge of the plurality of bezel sections defining an inner perimeter of the surround;
at least two support hoops removably attached to at least two of the legs; and
a plurality of vertically oriented panels removably attached to the at least two support hoops and disposed radially outward from the fire pit.

6. The surround of claim 5 , wherein at least one tabletop section, at least one bezel section, at least one leg, or at least one panel comprises an added color, pattern, image, or logo.

7. A surround for a fire pit, the surround comprising:
a frame comprising:
at least three legs, each leg of the at least three legs comprising a cradle disposed at a top portion of the leg;
at least two support hoops removably attachable to at least two of the legs;

a panel removably attached to the at least two support hoops;
a plurality of tabletop sections, each tabletop section configured to rest removably in the cradles of at least two of the legs; and
a plurality of bezel sections removably connectable to and extending radially inward from the tabletop sections, each bezel section of the plurality of bezel sections comprising an inner edge and an outer edge, the inner edge defining an inner perimeter of the surround.

8. The surround of claim 7 , further comprising a fire pit support comprising a plurality of support arms extending radially inward from the at least three legs to a central intersection.

9. The surround of claim 7 , wherein each support hoop comprises removable hoop sections, each hoop section comprising part of a circumference of the support hoop.

10. The surround of claim 9 , wherein the surround is configured such that a radial section of the surround, defined by a central axis of the surround and two of the legs, can be opened by removing removable hoop sections, the panel, a tabletop section, and a bezel section from within the radial section.

11. The surround of claim 7 , wherein at least some of the tabletop sections, at least some of the bezels sections or the panel are held in place by one or more removable fasteners.

12. The surround of claim 7 , wherein at least one tabletop section, at least one bezel section, at least one leg, or the panel comprises an added color, pattern, image, or logo.

13. A surround for a fire pit, comprising:
a frame comprising:
at least three legs, each leg of the at least three legs comprising a connector disposed at a top portion;
a fire pit support comprising a plurality of support arms extending radially inward from the at least three legs to a central intersection;

a plurality of tabletop sections, each tabletop section having lateral ends, an inward facing side, and an outward facing side and being configured to connect to the connector of at least two of the legs and also configured to quick disconnect from the connector of said at least two of the legs to provide access to the fire pit support; and
a bezel section comprising a plurality of ventilation holes and disposed radially inward from the inward facing side of a tabletop section of the plurality of tabletop sections.

14. The surround of claim 13 , further comprising a plurality of bezel sections, each bezel section extending radially inward from the inward facing side of a tabletop section, each bezel section of the plurality of bezel sections having lateral ends, an inner edge, and an outer edge, the inner edge of the plurality of bezel sections defining an inner perimeter of the surround.

15. The surround of claim 14 , wherein each bezel section removably extends from least one of the tabletop sections.

16. The surround of claim 14 , wherein the inner edge of the plurality of bezel sections form an entirely enclosed inner perimeter of the surround.

17. The surround of claim 14 , wherein the frame further comprises:
at least two support hoops removably attached to at least two of the legs; and
a plurality of panels removably attached to the at least two support hoops.

18. The surround of claim 17 , wherein at least one tabletop section, at least one bezel section, at least one leg, or at least one panel comprises an added color, pattern, image, or logo.

19. The surround of claim 17 , wherein each support hoop comprises removable hoop sections, each hoop section comprising part of a circumference of the support hoop.

20. The surround of claim 19 , wherein the surround is configured such that a radial section of the surround, defined by a central axis of the surround and two of the legs, can be opened by removing removable hoop sections, a panel, a tabletop section, and a bezel section from within the radial section.
