BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an incense igniter, and more particularly to an incense igniter in which a cylindrical hood is mounted around an upper end of a cylindrical housing.

When visiting a grave in a Buddhist style, burning incense is indispensable in front of the tomb, but in order to facilitate ignition of the incense at the time of burning, incense igniters (lighters) with hoods to keep out the wind have recently become widespread. ing.

[0003] For example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 63-50607 discloses an example of the incense igniter with a hood as described above. FIG. 4 shows the structure, in which a burner 22 is provided at the upper end of a cylindrical housing 21, and a nozzle 23 is protruded from the burner 22. Housing 2
A cylindrical hood 24 is attached by screwing around the upper end of the nozzle 1, and a nozzle 2 inside the hood 24 is attached.
Above 3, a heating element 25 is provided. On the other hand, by screwing the cap 26 from the rear end (lower side) of the housing 21, a cylinder is housed inside the housing 21 and connected to the burner 22. Housing 21
The ignition lever 27 and the adjustment lever 28 are provided on the side surface of.

In order to use the incense igniter, the ignition lever 27 on the side of the housing 21 is operated, and the burner 22 is operated.
After that, the discharge amount of the gas is adjusted by operating the adjustment lever 28 to such an extent that the heating element 25 becomes red hot. Next, a bundle of incense sticks 29 is inserted from the opening at the upper end of the hood 24 and pressed against the heating body 25 to ignite the incense sticks 29.

[0005]

By the way, in the conventional incense igniter, since the cylindrical hood 24 is attached around the upper end of the housing 21, the length of the branch incense igniter is long. Therefore, there is a problem that handling is troublesome and portability is poor.

That is, even when the incense stick is not ignited, the hood 24 is fixed to the incense igniter, so that the hood 24 may not be properly stored in the pocket of the clothes, or the hood may be caught in the pocket. Can be inconvenient. On the other hand, if the hood 24 is shortened, the wind evasion effect is reduced.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve such a problem, and it is an object of the present invention to provide an incense igniter with a hood which is easy to handle without deteriorating the effect of preventing wind and has excellent portability. With the goal.

[0008]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided an incendiary igniter having an ignition portion provided at an upper end portion of a cylindrical housing and a cylindrical hood attached around the upper end portion of the housing. The hood has a hood portion and a mounting portion, and when the incense is ignited, the mounting portion is fitted over the upper end of the housing with the hood portion covering the ignition portion of the incense turned upward, and when the incense is not ignited. The hood is detachably configured such that the mounting portion is fitted to the upper end of the housing with the hood portion facing downward.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the hood having the hood portion and the mounting portion can be detachably attached to the housing of the igniter main body. By attaching to the housing with the covering hood part facing upward, the hood part of the hood exerts a windbreak effect against the ignition part, and when the incense stick is not ignited, the hood is attached to the housing with the hood part facing downward By doing so, the length of the incense stick igniter can be reduced compared to when the incense is ignited. Therefore, handling can be facilitated and the portability can be improved.

[0010]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In the present invention, the hood is attached to the housing of the igniter body by simply attaching the hood to the upper end of the housing with the hood facing upward or with the hood facing downward. It only needs to be fitted over the part. Therefore, the hood can be easily removed and attached to the housing regardless of whether the incense is ignited or the incense is not ignited. And the length of the igniter at the time of non-ignition can be shortened. Therefore, the handling can be facilitated and the portability can be improved.

[0011]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below in detail with reference to embodiments shown in the drawings. FIG. 1 is an exploded side view, partially in section, showing an incense igniter of the present invention.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a cylindrical housing made of metal, resin, or the like. An ignition portion 2 for igniting incense is provided at an upper end portion of the housing. It is connected inside the housing 1. The gas cylinder 3 is mounted in a fixed or replaceable state. An intermediate portion of the housing 1 is formed in a shape bulging in a curved shape, and an ignition switch 4 and a switch safety button 5 are provided in the intermediate portion. The gas cylinder 3 is provided with a flame adjustment button 6.

Reference numeral 7 denotes a cylindrical hood made of a heat-resistant material such as metal or resin, which has a hood portion 8 and a mounting portion 9 which are integrated. The inner surface of the mounting portion 9 is the upper end of the housing 1. Is formed slightly larger than the width of. by this,
The hood 7 is provided at the upper end of the housing 1 through the mounting portion 9.
It is configured to be easily detachably attached. The axial length L1 of the hood portion 8 of the hood 7
Is formed to be larger than the axial length L2 of the mounting portion 9. Thus, the hood portion 8 is configured so as to exhibit a windproof effect for covering the ignited portion of the incense when the incense is ignited.

When the incense igniter of this embodiment is used,
As shown in FIG. 2, the hood 7 is attached around the upper end of the housing 1 via the mounting portion 9 with the hood 8 facing upward. The inner surface width D of the mounting portion 9 is the housing 1
The hood 7 is easily attached to the upper end of the housing 1 because it is formed slightly larger than the width of the upper end of the housing 1.
Next, with the switch safety button 5 turned on, the ignition switch 4 is operated to ignite the ignition part 2, and then the flame adjustment button 6 is adjusted to adjust the intensity, size, etc. of the flame of the ignition part 2. I do. Then, the incense 10 is passed through the opening of the hood portion 8 of the hood 7.
The incense 10 is ignited by the flame generated from the ignition part 2. Since the axial length L1 of the hood portion 8 of the hood 7 is formed to be greater than the axial length L2 of the mounting portion 9, a windproof effect is exhibited, so that ignition is reliably performed.

After the ignition is completed, the ignition switch 4 is operated to extinguish the ignition part 2, and then the switch safety button 5 is turned off. Next, the hood 7 is lifted upward to remove the housing 1.
Then, the direction of the hood 7 is reversed, and as shown in FIG. 3, the mounting portion 9 is mounted on the upper end portion of the housing 1 so that the hood portion 8 faces downward. Since the inner surface width D of the mounting portion 9 is formed to be slightly larger than the width of the upper end portion of the housing 1, the hood 7 is formed as in the case of ignition.
Is easily attached to the upper end of the housing 1.

As described above, according to the incense stick igniter of this embodiment, the hood 7 having the hood portion 8 and the mounting portion 9 for covering the ignition portion of the incense at the time of ignition of the incense stick is configured to be detachable with respect to the housing 1. In particular, when the incense stick is not ignited, the hood 7 is attached to the housing 1 with the hood 8 turned downward, so that the length of the incense stick non-igniter is reduced as compared with the time when the incense stick is ignited. Therefore, the handling becomes easy, and the portability can be improved.

The shape of the hood 7 has been described with respect to an example in which the hood portion 8 and the mounting portion 9 are integrated in a stepwise manner. It may be shaped like a taper whose diameter changes. In addition, although an example has been shown in which the middle portion of the housing 1 is formed in a shape that bulges in a curved shape, the present invention is not limited to this, and the middle portion may be linear, like the upper end portion and the rear end portion. Further, a plurality of small-diameter holes may be provided below the hood portion 8 of the hood 7 so that oxygen (air) is supplied. This is because, at the time of ignition, there is a possibility that a shortage of oxygen occurs in the lower portion of the hood 8 due to combustion near the ignition portion 2, the ignition does not proceed smoothly, and the fire that has arrived is extinguished. Therefore, it can be considered that a small-diameter hole is provided so that there is no possibility that air is supplied through the hole to extinguish a fire. If the diameter of the hole is reduced to, for example, about 1 to 2 mm, there is almost no possibility that the effect of preventing the wind will be affected, and there is no particular problem.
