摘要

The invention is a reinforcing support structure for a pan adapted to contain an object. The pan has a pan bottom and a sidewall extending upwardly from the periphery of the pan bottom. An outwardly extending rim is formed on the upwardly extending sidewall around the entire circumference of the pan. An outer support for holding the pan has an upper support portion and a lower support portion. The upper support portion is applied to the entire outwardly extending rim of the pan to support and reinforce the extending rim. The lower support portion also includes a plurality of horizontal support members wherein at least one of the horizontal support members is formed in a zigzag shape. An object support rack is disposed within the pan to support the object when the object is disposed in the pan. The object support rack includes a spacer for spacing the object apart from the pan bottom. Both the outer support and the object support rack are provided with handles for lifting and carrying the reinforcing support structure. The handles of the object support rack and the handles of the outer support are adapted to mate with each other.
