Chimney crane : ウィキペディア英語版 | Chimney crane
Chimney Cranes, aka fireplace cranes and pot cranes,〔''(The Victorian Web )'', What the housewife used to cook meals: fireplace hangers, pot cranes,...〕 are a feature of the homes of the American Colonial period and 18/19th century of Western Europe. Although the chimney crane may be thought by some to be a Yankee invention, it was common in both British and American houses of the era.〔''(Fireplace Crane )'', in Blog and website for William Rubel, author and cook specializing in traditional cuisines〕 The purpose of the crane is to allow a cooking pot to be swung away from the fire, preventing burn injuries to the cook as well as regulating temperature of the pot. The chimney crane is an important step in open hearth cooking as it helped save lives and allowed cooks to be more creative. For centuries before the iron crane was introduced, colonial and European fireplaces used a chain that hung from first a green wooden chimney lug pole then a fixed iron pole directly over the fire.〔(Colonial Dames and Good Wives, Alice Morse Earle, 1895, p. 277 )〕〔( Home Life in Colonial Days, The Macmillan Company, 1899, p. 53 )〕〔J. Frederick Kelley, Early Domestic Architecture of Connecticut, Courier Dover Publications, 1963, p. 77 ()〕 The chimney crane, by contrast, was bolted to the wall and was hinged in order to swing easily. Numerous pots, kettles and other items could be hung on the crane to simmer and cook over the flames. == References ==
