Definitions

  • the invention relates to a lighter capable of emitting two different flames alternately.
  • Certain lighters are designed to be able to emit in alternation, a classic yellow flame, and a turbo flame or blue flame, which is comparable to a weakly dispersed stinger, and which is obtained with a higher gas outlet speed.
  • the yellow flame is generally sufficient to light a cigarette or a cigar, the turbo flame being rather sought after to heat locally and quickly a specific area of a cigar, for example to relight it quickly.
  • a major drawback of this type of lighter is that the passage from one flame to another is complicated, because it involves either modifying the position of the lighter in the hand in order to be able to access the desired button, or handle said lighter with both hands.
  • the lighter risks escaping its user by falling to the ground.
  • the user In the second case, the user must engage in difficult manipulations, because his two hands are already occupied with the manipulation of the lighter whereas he must moreover master a cigarette or a cigar.
  • the request US6884063 describes a lighter capable of providing two different types of flame, a classic yellow flame and a windproof flame.
  • the yellow flame is produced by means of an ignition device involving a thumbwheel and a stone, and the windproof flame is produced using an electronic ignition mechanism.
  • Requirement GB1426566 describes a lighter comprising a reservoir of liquid fuel, a first gas circuit for producing a first type of horizontal flame and a second gas circuit for producing a second type of vertical flame.
  • the movement of a movable actuator in translation and which is different from the driver, enables either the first circuit, or the second circuit to obtain the desired flame.
  • a lighter according to the invention makes it possible to produce two different flames in alternation, while avoiding the drawbacks noted with regard to lighters of the state of the art.
  • the invention relates to a lighter comprising a liquid fuel tank, a first gas circuit intended to produce a first type of flame and a second gas circuit intended to produce a second type of flame, said lighter further comprising a driver associated with a spark production mechanism, rotation activation of said driver generating sparks.
  • the main characteristic of a lighter according to the invention is that the driver is mounted in the lighter being movable in translation between a first nominal position for which it keeps the first circuit open in order to allow the liquid fuel from the tank to pass. by said first circuit and thus obtain the first type of flame, and a second position for which it closes off said first circuit, in order to allow said liquid fuel to pass through the second circuit and thus obtain the second type of flame.
  • the term "driver" designates the part, which is generally cylindrical in shape, and which is rotated by means of a sharp movement of the thumb, in order to generate sparks and instantaneously obtain a flame.
  • a gas circuit delimits a gas passage opening onto a diffusion element at which the flame is formed, said passage being able to include a certain number of parts intended to act on the gas flow.
  • the diffusing element is also called a burner.
  • all the elements involved in the lighter in order to be able to perform all the functions of the trainer are arranged in a compact manner, to allow said lighter to maintain a substantially constant size with respect to those of existing lighters.
  • the term "nominal position" means "position occupied by default”.
  • the trainer does not undergo any translation on the part of the user, it is the first gas circuit which will always be active for get the first type of flame.
  • the internal diameter of the first circuit is greater than the internal diameter of the second circuit, so that the fuel gas will primarily pass through the first circuit.
  • a particular type of flame results from a specific gas flow and a given gas dispersion. It is important to emphasize that a lighter according to the invention is capable of supplying two different types of flame alternately, said two types of flame never being produced simultaneously.
  • the first circuit comprises a closure part including at least partially the first circuit, and movable between an open position and a closed position, and the driver is in contact with said closure part, so that by default in the first nominal position the driver maintains the closure part in the open position, and so that a translational movement of said driver to its second position causes a movement of the closure part with the same amplitude, up to the closed position.
  • the closed position of the shutter piece corresponds to a position for which said piece closes the first circuit and makes it inactive
  • the open position corresponds to a position for which it opens said first circuit.
  • the driver directly exerts a thrust on the shutter part and thus directly governs the opening or closing of the first circuit.
  • the closure part may include either only part of the first circuit capable of supplying the first type of flame, or all of said first circuit.
  • the closure part is associated with a prestressed spring allowing said closure part to be maintained by default in the open position, and consequently to maintain the driver in its first position by default. Since the shutter is in contact with the driver, it is the spring that will keep the driver in its first position.
  • a displacement of the driver from its first nominal position to the second position generates a displacement of the closure part to its closed position, accompanied by a compression of the spring.
  • the movement of the trainer in translation requires a slight effort to overcome the spring, allowing better control over the movement of said driver. If the user interrupts the pressure on the trainer, it immediately returns to the first position under the effect of the spring which relaxes.
  • the maximum stroke of the driver between the first and the second position is between 0.5mm and 3mm.
  • the trainer's stroke is limited to allow the switching between the two gas circuits to be accomplished easily and with mastery.
  • the driver is an elongated cylindrical part and the translational movement of said driver in the lighter takes place along its axis of revolution.
  • the first type of flame is a yellow flame and the second type of flame is a turbo flame.
  • a yellow flame is characterized by a gas exhaust velocity of the order of a few m / s, an air / gas mixture occurring after the outlet of the orifice (burner) and a gas outlet diameter of a few. tenths of a mm (for a double flame).
  • a turbo flame is characterized by a gas exhaust speed of more than a hundred m / s, an air / gas mixture taking place before the gas outlet through the orifice and a gas outlet diameter of the order of 75 ⁇ m.
  • the first circuit ends with a first diffusion element at which the yellow flame is produced
  • the second circuit ending with a second diffusion element at which the turbo flame is produced, said two elements emerging from the same face of the lighter, the second element emerging at a height greater than that of said first element.
  • the two flames form at the same wall of the lighter, the turbo flame being produced at a higher altitude than the yellow flame. This difference in height is justified insofar as the yellow flame, which is ignited by default in the lighter, will help to form the blue flame.
  • the first diffusion element has two distinct orifices capable of producing a yellow flame in two continuous parts, one of the two parts of said yellow flame having a particular orientation allowing it to initiate the turbo flame.
  • the flame yellow is divided into two distinct but continuous parts, said parts being judiciously arranged to allow the reversibility of the two types of flame.
  • the two orifices of the first diffusion element are placed at 75 ° to each other.
  • the part of the yellow flame intended to initiate the turbo flame is placed at 45 ° from said turbo flame.
  • the difference in height between the first diffusion element and the second diffusion element is between 1mm and 3mm. Such a height difference allows easy and systematic initiation of the turbo flame by the yellow flame, and vice versa.
  • the liquid fuel tank is closed by a closure element
  • the lighter comprising a pivoting cover connected to said closure element by a rigid relay part so that the opening of the cover causes the movement of the closure element to release gas to the first and second circuit.
  • a second object of the invention is a method of using a lighter according to the invention.
  • the third step is reversible, because by moving the driver from the second position to the first position again, the first circuit is again activated to produce the first type of flame.
  • the passage from one flame to another alternately can be done as many times as there is liquid fuel left in the tank.
  • a lighter according to the invention has the advantage of having the particular function of producing two different flames in alternation, thanks to a single-handed manipulation, which is easy and well controlled. Indeed, the production of the two flames is carried out by means of a single member, namely the driver, which can be moved in rotation or in translation with the thumb of the same hand. It also has the advantage of remaining of a constant size, compared to existing lighters and not having this dual functionality of producing two different flames alternately.
