Abstract

PURPOSE:To confirm the operating state of the operation button of a cigarette lighter by providing a display lamp which lights by a switch cooperating with the button. CONSTITUTION:When the operation button 5 of a cigarette lighter is depressed, a high voltage generator 4 is operated, a gas lever 6 and a switch 9 are simultaneously pressed, the lever 6 lifts a gas nozzle 3 upward, thereby starting injection of gas from the nozzle 3, while a display lamp 11 is lit by the depression of the switch 9. Further, when the button 5 is depressed, the generator 4 is impact-operated, a high voltage is sparked between a high voltage lead 7 and the nozzle 3, thereby igniting gas. When the button 5 is reset to an original state, the switch 9 is opened, and the lamp 11 goes out.

Description

【発明の詳細な説明】 産業上の利用分野 本発明は、喫煙時等の点火に使用するシガレットライタ
ーに関するものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cigarette lighter used for ignition when smoking.

従来の技術 従来、この種のシガレットライターは、電卓または時計

発明が解決しようとする課題 このような従来のシガレットライターでは、ライターの
操作状態を標示するものがなく、喫煙者から操作状態を
標示する機能を求める声が強く出されていた。Problems to be Solved by the Invention In such conventional cigarette lighters, there is no indication of the operating status of the lighter, and smokers have strongly requested a function to indicate the operating status.

本発明は、このような要望に答えたもので、ライター操
作と同時に標示灯が点灯する機能を付加することを目的
とするものである。The present invention has been made in response to such a demand, and an object of the present invention is to add a function to turn on a marker light simultaneously with the operation of a lighter.

課題を解決するだめの手段 この課題を解決するために本発明は、操作ボタンと連動
するスイッチにより点灯する標示灯を具備した構成とし
たものである。Means for Solving the Problem In order to solve this problem, the present invention is configured to include an indicator light that is turned on by a switch that is linked to an operation button.

作用 この構成によυ、シガレットライターの操作ボタンの操
作状態を標示灯により確認することが可能となる。Function: With this configuration, it is possible to confirm the operation status of the cigarette lighter's operation button using the indicator light.

実施例 以下、本発明の一実施例について図面と共に説明する。Example An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

。First, when the operation button 6 is pressed, the high voltage generator 4 is activated, and at the same time the gas lever θ and the switch 9 are pressed.
By pushing the gas nozzle 3 upward, the gas lever 6 starts ejecting gas from the gas nozzle 3. On the other hand, when the switch lever 9 is pressed, the indicator light 11 lights up. Further, when the operation button 5 is pressed, the high voltage generator 4 is activated by impact, a high voltage is sparked between the high voltage lead wire 7 and the gas nozzle 3, and the gas is ignited. Further, when the operation button 5 is returned to its original state, the switch 9 is opened and the indicator light 11 is turned off.
