Abstract

PURPOSE: To obtain a handy torch assembled simply by eliminating any destruction of torch body due to conduction heat through the torch body by separating a torch nozzle support block from the torch body, holding the same with a heat resistant, horizontal partition plate, and further combining the horizontal partition plate to a clamp space. CONSTITUTION: A horizontal partition plate 80 is inserted into a clamp space 97, and is held between an upper clamp pieces 931, 941 and lower clamp pieces 932, 942. A torch nozzle support block 70 is provided on the horizontal partition plate 80. The horizontal partition plate 80 is formed with a heat prevention material, which has a flat external appearance and is set thinner than the pitch of the clamp space. An arch shaped portion 82 is provided on one end of a flat rectangular body 81 of the horizontal partition plate 80. The torch nozzle support block 70 is mounted on the top of the flat rectangular body 81 of the horizontal partition plate 80, whereby the torch nozzle is held. Thus, heat is interrupted and is prevented from being transferred to the torch body, and assembling of the torch is simplified.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a handy torch, and more particularly to a handy torch using a disposable lighter as a fuel source.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, various handy torches using a disposable lighter as a fuel source have been announced and put on the market. For example, US Pat. No. 5,082,440
Issued to Mr. Yamamoto of the issue, this Yamato's handy compact torch is
As shown in FIG. 1, the disposable lighter (1
A closed bottom holder (11) for loading 2);
A detachable torch body (10) attached to the upper end of the holder (11) is provided. The torch body (10) has a removable cover for covering the top surface of the holder (11), a head cover provided on the cover, and an ignition button (104) provided on the back surface of the cover for depressing to provide ignition. Have. A torch nozzle (18) is provided inside the head cover. Ignition device (1
3) is provided below the ignition button (104). The piezoelectric device is attached to the ignition device, and the spark unit (19) is provided near the inclination of the torch nozzle (18) by the lead wire.
Connected to. The connecting pipe (17) is a torch nozzle (1
It is provided on the back surface of 8) and is connected to the injection nozzle of the disposable lighter by a connecting tube (16).

When the ignition button (104) is pushed down, the ignition button (104) pushes the push button (15) of the disposable lighter (12), and the connection mechanism is made safe. This connecting mechanism is a horizontal lever (105)
And a vertical bar (106) provided at the front end of this horizontal lever (105). A compression coil spring (107) is placed over this vertical rod (106) to allow the depressed ignition button (104) to return upwards.

The torch body (10) is further provided with a horizontal support plate (100) at the center, and the horizontal support plate (100) is provided.
A vertical support block (101) screwed on is provided for holding the connecting tube (16), the connecting pipe (17), and the torch nozzle (18).

The handy compact torch having the above construction has not been sufficiently satisfactory in use. That is, during the torch operation heat is transferred from the horizontal support plate (100) through the vertical support block (101),
There was a case where the internal mechanism of the soldering device was damaged due to conduction to the soldering device. Another disadvantage is that the horizontal support plate (100) and the vertical support block (101) need to be threaded for fastening with screws (102) (103), which results in manufacturing and assembly. The process was complicated. Furthermore, the vertical bar (106) in the connecting mechanism
Since it does not have a structure for holding or guiding the reciprocating motion of the vertical lever (105), the vertical rod (106) may tilt when pushed by the horizontal lever (105). In some cases, therefore, the ignition button (104) had to be repeatedly pressed in order for the gas fuel to flow out from the disposable lighter.

[0006]

The present invention particularly relates to a handy torch that uses a disposable lighter as a fuel source, and more particularly, to a handy torch that does not damage the torch body due to conductive heat and at the same time is easy to assemble. Another object of the present invention is to provide a handy torch in which the operation of the gas outflow control mechanism is stable.

[0007]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a handy torch, and more particularly to a holder for a handy lighter (disposable lighter) and a removable lighter for loading the lighter into the holder.

The left and right half cases are combined to form a narrow, horizontal clamp space between the vertically arranged clamp pieces on these half cases, and a heat-proof partition plate is provided to hold the torch nozzle support block. . This partition plate is provided with a rectangular hole for guiding the connecting mechanism. This coupling mechanism is controlled by a fuel gas outflow control push button on the lighter and an ignition button that drives the ignition device.

[0008]

As shown in FIG. 6 and again in FIG. 4, by pushing down the ignition button (104), the push button (15) of the disposable lighter (12) in the holder (11) is pushed down via the connecting mechanism. Horizontal lever (105)
The casing (60) thus discharges and supplies the fuel gas in the gas container of the disposable lighter (12) through the connecting pipe and the torch nozzle.
