According to the invention, said nozzles have a shape or are disposed such that, at their lower parts, they terminate at a tangent to an adjacent surface of the burner or body of the lighter, licked by the gas flow they emit.

Description

La présente invention concerne un briquet à gaz liquéfié, à flamme plate élargie dans sa partie médiane.The present invention relates to a liquefied gas lighter, with a flat flame enlarged in its middle part.

Pour certaines applications, il est souhaitable de pouvoir disposer d'un briquet dont la flamme soit plus large que celle d'un briquet ordinaire. C'est le cas, en particulier, lorsque l'on désire allumer un cigare, une flamme élargie dans sa partie médiane étant alors particulièrement désirable.For certain applications, it is desirable to be able to have a lighter whose flame is wider than that of an ordinary lighter. This is the case, in particular, when it is desired to light a cigar, an enlarged flame in its middle part then being particularly desirable.

Dans le but d'élargir la flamme d'un briquet et de la rendre propre à un allumage aisé et satisfaisant des cigares, diverses solutions ont déjà été proposées.In order to widen the flame of a lighter and make it suitable for easy and satisfactory lighting of cigars, various solutions have already been proposed.

La plus simple consiste à accroître le diamètre de la buse d'évacuation du gaz, mais le débit du briquet est alors important et l'on obtient une flamme allongée, peu esthétique.The simplest consists in increasing the diameter of the gas evacuation nozzle, but the flow rate of the lighter is then important and an elongated, unattractive flame is obtained.

Pour réduire le débit, on peut envisager de former des flammes plates et, dans ce but, on pourrait réaliser des brûleurs dits papillons, s'inspirant de la technique utilisée sur les lampes à acétylène, c'est-à-dire un brûleur à deux têtes, dont les buses sont écartées l'une de l'autre et inclinées en direction de l'axe du brûleur.To reduce the flow, one can consider forming flat flames and, for this purpose, one could make so-called butterfly burners, inspired by the technique used on acetylene lamps, that is to say a burner with two heads, the nozzles of which are spaced from one another and inclined towards the axis of the burner.

L'inconvénient majeur de ce type de brûleurs tient à leur encombrement, puisqu'il est nécessaire de disposer de deux têtes écartées. En outre, la mise en oeuvre des briquets de ce type est relativement complexe.The major drawback of this type of burners is their size, since it is necessary to have two heads apart. In addition, the implementation of lighters of this type is relatively complex.

Il est donc apparu qu'un briquet à flamme large comportant deux flammes réunies pour former une unique flamme élargie ne devrait comporter qu'une seule tête de brûleur, d'où proviendraient les deux flammes.It therefore appeared that a large flame lighter comprising two flames joined together to form a single enlarged flame should have only one burner head, from which the two flames would come.

On a déjà réalisé des briquets s'inpirant de ce principe et ils apparaissent sur les figures 1 et 2 des dessins schématiques annexés. Sur ces dessins, qui représentent également des formes de mise en oeuvre de la présente invention que l'on décrira ci-après:

  • La figure 1 est une coupe axiale partielle suivant l'axe du brûleur d'un briquet à deux flammes confondues de la technique connue ;
  • La figure 2 est une coupe analogue d'un autre briquet à deux flammes de la technique antérieure ;
  • Les figures 3 et 4 sont des coupes axiales partielles suivant l'axe du brûleur de deux briquets conformes à l'invention ;
  • La figure 5 est une coupe suivant la ligne V-V de la figure 4.
Lighters inspired by this principle have already been produced and they appear in FIGS. 1 and 2 of the attached schematic drawings. In these drawings, which also represent embodiments of the present invention which will be described below:
  • Figure 1 is a partial axial section along the axis of the burner of a lighter with two combined flames of the known technique;
  • Figure 2 is a similar section of another prior art two flame lighter;
  • Figures 3 and 4 are partial axial sections along the axis of the burner of two lighters according to the invention;
  • FIG. 5 is a section along the line VV of FIG. 4.

Les figures 1 et 2 illustrent deux briquets de la technique antérieure comprenant un brûleur qui émet deux flammes destinées à se réunir pour former une flamme unique élargie.Figures 1 and 2 illustrate two lighters of the prior art comprising a burner which emits two flames intended to come together to form a single enlarged flame.

Dans le cas de la figure 1, le brûleur 1 du briquet 2 comprend deux alésages 3 et 4 à axes parallèles, alimentés en gaz par un même conduit 5. La flamme 6 ainsi produite reste cependant relativement étroite, comme dans la technique antérieure, à moins d'augmenter le débit du gaz, ce qui a pour inconvénient d'accroître simultanément la longueur de la flamme.In the case of FIG. 1, the burner 1 of the lighter 2 comprises two bores 3 and 4 with parallel axes, supplied with gas by the same conduit 5. The flame 6 thus produced remains however relatively narrow, as in the prior art, at less increase the gas flow, which has the disadvantage of simultaneously increasing the length of the flame.

Une autre solution est celle illustrée par la figure 2, où le briquet 7 comporte un brûleur 8 ayant deux alésages divergents 9 et 10, disposés symétriquement par rapport à l'axe du brûleur et alimentéspar un même conduit 11.Another solution is that illustrated in FIG. 2, where the lighter 7 comprises a burner 8 having two divergent bores 9 and 10, arranged symmetrically with respect to the axis of the burner and supplied by the same duct 11.

Dans un tel briquet, tant que le débit de gaz est faible, les flammes émises par les alésages 9 et 10 se réunissent très facilement pour former une flamme relativement large, mais de très faible hauteur. Si l'on augmente alors le débit pour accroître la hauteur de la flamme, les deux flammes 12 et 13 émises par les alésages 9 et 10 divergent malheureusement dès que la vitesse de sortie du gaz atteint un certain seuil et l'on n'obtient donc plus une flamme unique et large.In such a lighter, as long as the gas flow is low, the flames emitted by the bores 9 and 10 meet very easily to form a relatively large flame, but of very low height. If the flow is then increased to increase the height of the flame, the two flames 12 and 13 emitted by the bores 9 and 10 unfortunately diverge as soon as the gas exit speed reaches a certain threshold and one does not obtain so no longer a single, wide flame.

La présente invention vise à remédier à ces inconvénients en proposant un briquet dont la flamme soit plate et large, et ait une bonne stabilité et une hauteur satisfaisante, sans nécessiter pour autant une vitesse de sortie et un débit du gaz qui soient excessifs.The present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks by proposing a lighter whose flame is flat and wide, and has good stability and height. satisfactory, without, however, requiring excessive gas exit speed and flow.

En partant de la technique antérieure illustrée par la figure 2, la Demanderesse a, en effet, remarqué que la séparation en deux flammes distinctes, à grand débit, de la flamme unique obtenue à faible débit tient à la trop grande vitesse de sortie du gaz et elle a établi que, pour pallier cet inconvénient, il suffit de freiner le gaz à la sortie des buses du brûleur, en lui faisant lécher tangentiellement une surface adjacente.Starting from the prior art illustrated in FIG. 2, the Applicant has, in fact, noticed that the separation into two distinct flames, at high flow rate, of the single flame obtained at low flow rate is due to the too high gas exit speed. and it has established that, to overcome this drawback, it suffices to brake the gas at the outlet of the burner nozzles, by making it tangentially lick an adjacent surface.

L'invention a par conséquent pour objet un briquet à gaz à flamme plate élargie dans sa partie médiane, du type comprenant un brûleur comportant deux buses de sortie de gaz à axes divergents, caractérisé en ce que lesdites buses ont une forme telle ou sont disposées de façon telle qu'à leur partie inférieure, elles débouchent tangentiellement à une surface adjacente du brûleur ou du corps du briquet,que vient lécher le flux gazeux qu'elles émettent.The invention therefore relates to a gas lighter with a flat flame enlarged in its middle part, of the type comprising a burner comprising two gas outlet nozzles with divergent axes, characterized in that said nozzles have such a shape or are arranged in such a way that at their lower part, they open tangentially to an adjacent surface of the burner or of the body of the lighter, which the gas flow which they emit comes to lick.

De ce fait, la partie inférieure du flux gazeux des buses sera freinée par les surfaces adjacentes et les flammes qu'elles émettront pourront se réunir pour ne former qu'une flamme.plate élargie, d'une hauteur satisfaisante et d'une grande stabilité.As a result, the lower part of the gas flow from the nozzles will be braked by the adjacent surfaces and the flames they will emit can join together to form only an enlarged flame. Of a satisfactory height and great stability .

Avantageusement, les buses du brûleur seront disposées symétriquement par rapport à son axe et leur partie supérieure sera inclinée d'au moins environ 30° à partir de cet axe.Advantageously, the burner nozzles will be arranged symmetrically with respect to its axis and their upper part will be inclined at least about 30 ° from this axis.

De préférence, afin d'accroître l'effet de freinage exercé sur le gaz, les buses présenteront un étranglement, interne leur conférant un profil de convergent-divergent.Preferably, in order to increase the braking effect exerted on the gas, the nozzles will have an internal constriction giving them a convergent-divergent profile.

Dans une première forme de réalisation d'un briquet conforme à l'invention, représentée sur la figure 3, les surfaces que vient lécher le gaz à lasortie des buses appartiennent au brûleur lui-même. Ce brûleur 15 comprend deux buses de sortie du gaz, respectivement 16 et 17, alimentées en gaz par un même conduit 18, ménagé dans le corps du briquet, par l'intermédiaire d'un conduit central 19 du brûleur.In a first embodiment of a lighter according to the invention, shown in FIG. 3, the surfaces that the gas comes to lick from the nozzles belong to the burner itself. This burner 15 comprises two gas outlet nozzles, respectively 16 and 17, supplied with gas by the same conduit 18, formed in the body of the lighter, via a central duct 19 of the burner.

Les buses 15 et 17 sont disposées symétriquement par rapport à l'axe du brûleur et leur partie supérieure est inclinée sur celui-ci d'un angle de 450.The nozzles 15 and 17 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the axis of the burner and their upper part is inclined thereon by an angle of 45 ° .

Conformément à l'invention, le brûleur comporte un bossage 20, par lequelil prend appui sur le corps du briquet et à la surface ie laquelle débouche tangentiellement la partie inférieure des buses 16 et 17. Le gaz vient ainsi lécher la surface supérieure du bossage 20, par laquelle il est freiné, ce qui a pour effet que les deux flammes émises par les buses 16 et 17 peuvent se réunir pour former une unique flamme, plate et large, d'une hauteur satisfaisante. On remarquera que le canal central 19 communique avec les buses 16 et 17 par une restriction conférant à l'ensemble un profil de venturi favorable à un ralentissement des gaz à la sortie des buses.According to the invention, the burner has a boss 20, by which it bears on the body of the lighter and on the surface ie which tangentially opens the lower part of the nozzles 16 and 17. The gas thus licks the upper surface of the boss 20 , by which it is braked, which has the effect that the two flames emitted by the nozzles 16 and 17 can come together to form a single flame, flat and wide, of a satisfactory height. It will be noted that the central channel 19 communicates with the nozzles 16 and 17 by a restriction giving the assembly a venturi profile favorable to a deceleration of the gases at the outlet of the nozzles.

La figure 4 montre une autre forme de réalisation de l'invention, dans laquelle le brûleur est constitué par un pion 22 sensiblement cylindrique, dans lequel sont ménagées des fentes 23 et 24 constituant les buses d'évacuation du gaz, ce brûleur 22 étant simplement emmanché dans un évidement 25 de profil complémentaire du corps du briquet 26, alimenté en gaz par un conduit 27. La partie inférieure des buses 23 et 24 est donc constituée par la surface du corps du briquet, que le gaz sortant du brûleur vient ainsi lécher.Figure 4 shows another embodiment of the invention, in which the burner is constituted by a substantially cylindrical pin 22, in which are formed slots 23 and 24 constituting the gas discharge nozzles, this burner 22 being simply fitted into a recess 25 of complementary profile of the body of the lighter 26, supplied with gas by a conduit 27. The lower part of the nozzles 23 and 24 therefore consists of the surface of the body of the lighter, which the gas leaving the burner thus licks .

Comme précédemment, le gaz est ainsi freiné et les flammes émises par les buses 23 et 24 se confondent en une unique flamme plate 28, large dans sa partie médiane. On remarquera que le bord 29 de l'évidement 25 forme à l'intérieur des fentes 23 et 24 un étranglement, de sorte que, par effet de divergent, le gaz sortant subit un effet accru de freinage propice à l'obtention d'une flamme large et stable.As before, the gas is thus braked and the flames emitted by the nozzles 23 and 24 merge into a single flat flame 28, wide in its middle part. It will be noted that the edge 29 of the recess 25 forms a constriction inside the slots 23 and 24, so that, by the diverging effect, the outgoing gas undergoes an increased braking effect which is favorable for obtaining a wide and stable flame.
