Abstract

The children resistant gas lighter of the invention has an ignition sleeve (41) having a slit (411) defined therein and a safe cap (42) having a press surface, an opposite slide surface (422), a direction bar (423) formed on the slide surface which is inserted in the slit and is able to make the safe cap slidable in the slit. In use, a user has to move the safe cap (42) against a bias spring (428) by his thumb until the safe cap is no longer blocked by a top surface (61) of a flame cover (60) and then press down the safe cap (42). The invention makes the safety device more credible and makes it harder for children to understand how the ignition functions thus making it safer for children.
