The diagram illustrates the desgin of a home smokery and its usage.

Overall, the entire process contains three main stages, starting with the air penetration, followed by burning logs to generate smokes, which are used to heat food.

The smokery consists of a lid, a central fire sector containing stacked logs, and a smokery box with a top lid. These design are connected by a pipe. Initially, the air penetrates into the smokery due to the opening of a lid. These air follow the pipe to access the fire sector, which use logs to ignite and maintain fire. The fire chamber is covered by a lid placed above the surface, preventing the smokes go outside

In the next stage, the smokes created by the fire go through a pipe to smoke and heat the food that are hanged by a box. Before smoking the foods, the smokes have to cross over the bricks in order to disperse and circulate around the foods.
