Abstract
A leveling mechanism is provided for a campstove which includes a base and a plurality of legs which are pivotally attached to the base. The leveling mechanism is a ring-shaped band which is inserted between the legs and the base. A camming ramp extends over a portion of the circumference of the band and progressively increases the thickness of the band. The band is rotatable to position the camming ramp between one of the pivoting legs and the base for pivoting the leg away from the base.
