"Lighter that can be assembled according to the modular principle"

Compared to the manufacturing cost of the individual parts One of the lighters do the cost by that assembly the lighters arise from a considerable portion of the total costs, simplifications of the assembly process are therefore of extreme importance.

. With regard to these requirements, "there is Lighter according to the invention from a tank container, a as a unit designed ignition mechanism and a Hank. The tank container has two openings which are provided for the introduction of the ignition mechanism or the tank. Both the ignition mechanism and the sink are each with a Pührungsflache provided, which after the introduction of the ! Thanks and the ignition mechanism through the designated Openings in the tank container are in contact with one another in such a way that the ignition mechanism can now be removed from the tank container is impossible. The sink can be achieved by a fixed sliding seat, Sennap seat or held in the Xank container by means of a cap that closes the bottom opening «

By, the inventive construction of the lighter the assembly is considerably simplified, so that 2.B. no more spoilings are necessary to the To hold the ignition mechanism in the desired position,

Thanks | These two files are preferably inserted into the thank-you container at right angles to each other the guide surface of the thanks can be arranged in such a way that they get in the way of the lead surface of the ignition mechanism stands as soon as an attempt is made to remove the ignition mechanism from the thank you container.

In a preferred embodiment of a particularly simple design, the ignition mechanism is laterally through one at one of the two upper corners of the thank you container provided opening introduced into this, wherein the attached to the leading edge of the Zündmeohanismus leg-shaped fführungflache in the assembled state of the! intended opening opposite. Then the thank you introduced through a bottom opening in the sump, so that the leg-shaped Pührungsfläche between the end wall of the thank you container and the narrow side of the tank facing it.

FIG. ₀ 1 shows a lighter that has been thawed together according to the invention in a perspective illustration and FIG

Fig. 2 shows the lighter shown in Mg x 1 prior to assembly, in an exploded view. ■

The lighter has a tank container 3 on one of the two upper corners of an opening 4 and a bottom opening 5 has ₀ The Zündmeohaiiismus is mounted on a support plate 7 on which further comprises a finger pressure to be actuated, movable shutter 8, a vertical JPeuersteinrohr 9 and a Tertikaie, leg-shaped guide surface 10 is attached. During assembly, the ignition mechanism is introduced laterally downward through the opening 4 into the tank container until the guide surface 10 stops at the lateral end face 11 of the container 3. 'The outer surfaces of the trigger 8 are now aligned with the adjacent outer surfaces of the container 3, so that a symmetrical jacket is created.

The ignition mechanism is thereby within the Container 3 fixed that a tank 12 is inserted into the container 3 from below. The tank has a burner valve 13, a valve-actuating angle lever 14 and a passage 15 for receiving the flint pipe 9. Der Tank 12 is held in container 3 by a sliding fit. the
