Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] The purpose is to make a part of the side surface of a lighter case change color as it receives the heat of the ignited flame. [Configuration] A portion of the lighter casing is made of a material with good thermal conductivity, and a liquid crystal whose color changes due to heat transfer from the burner nozzle is provided on the outer surface of the portion of the lighter casing made of the material with good thermal conductivity. It is characterized by having a body.

Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea]

0001

[Industrial application field]

This idea is that part of the side of the lighter case changes color when it receives the heat of the ignited flame. Regarding gaslighters that became

0002

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, a portion of the upper side of the lighter case was made transparent to allow the light from the ignited flame to shine through. The upper part of the lighter case can be visualized by the color of the flame or the coloring of the transparent material. It is known that it was made to look like this, but the color changed as it received the heat of the flame. What he did is unknown.

0003

[Problem that the idea aims to solve]

This idea is that part of the side of the lighter case changes color when it receives the heat of the ignited flame. The aim is to make this happen.

0004

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to solve the above problem, the method adopted by this invention is to create a lighter casing. A part of the lamp is made of a material with good thermal conductivity, and the liner is made of a material with good thermal conductivity. A liquid whose color changes due to heat transfer from the burner nozzle on a part of the outer surface of the casing. It is characterized by a crystalline structure.

[0005]

[Effect]

The part of the lighter case adjacent to the top of the burner nozzle is made of a material with good thermal conductivity. The outer surface of the lighter case, which is made of aluminum and has good thermal conductivity, changes color due to heat. The heat from the combustion flame is conductive when the lighter is lit. Heat is transferred to the side of the lighter case made of material, and the liquid crystal is arranged using the heat. The color changes.

[0006]

[Effect of the idea]

According to this invention, when the lighter is lit, the color of a part of the side of the lighter case Because the color changes, it can create a very unique visual interest, and the color changes. It can increase the product value of the product.

[0007]

【Example】

Preferred embodiments of this invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. In the diagram (1) is the lighter casing, and as is well known, there is a fuel tank and a dot inside. When operating the lid (2) that incorporates a fire mechanism and closes the top of the casing (1) with your finger. , open the gas on-off valve attached to the fuel tank in conjunction with the lid (2) to close the burner nozzle. At the same time, the ignition mechanism is activated and the fuel is spouted out. The gas can be ignited to form a flame for smoking in the burner nozzle.

[0008] This invention is a gas lighter in which the burner nozzle of the lighter casing is The part (3) close to the cable is made of a material with good thermal conductivity such as zinc die-casting, and A liquid crystal (4) whose color changes with heat is fixed to the outer surface of the conductive part (3), and the burner When the flame is formed in the nozzle, the color of the liquid crystal (4) changes. It is characterized by improving the visual interest of the product and increasing its commercial value.

[0009] The thermally conductive part (3) that forms part of the lighter casing (1) is shown in Figure 2. It has an upper block structure that is attached to the upper part of the lighter casing (1). , has a flame vent (5) and a recess (6) for stably fixing the liquid crystal (4). The liquid crystal element (4) is fixed with double-sided adhesive tape or the like.

0010 The liquid crystal body (4) shown in Figure 2 has a circular metal shape, and three pieces are fixed at intervals. However, as shown in FIG. 3, it may be formed into a plate shape having a predetermined length.

[0011] The liquid crystal (4) is made by using, for example, a liquid crystal (7) that uses squid cholesterol on the substrate (8). It is then coated with epoxy resin (9) and cured, and then sealed with double-sided adhesive tape (10). Glued in place.

0012 As shown in Figure 6, when the lid (2) is rotated to form a flame (11), the heat is transferred Heat is transferred to the liquid crystal body (4) through the transparent part (3), changing the color of the liquid crystal body (4). Figure 7~ 9, when multiple liquid crystal bodies (4) are arranged at intervals, the burner nozzle The color changes sequentially from the liquid crystal in close proximity to the screen, providing excellent visual interest to the user. It can create interest.
