Description

Lighter case module {LIGHTER CASE MODULE}

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a lighter case module, and more particularly, to a lighter case module capable of enhancing aesthetics and utility while adding a new function to a lighter case.

In general, a lighter refers to an ignition mechanism that ignites by an electrical or technical structure.

The principle seems to be the same as the way to put flint on fire, so it can be said that lighter existed from ancient times. The first lighter was made of flint and gunpowder and was already known to have been made in the 16th century. By the advent of matches in the nineteenth century, the flint ignition system had disappeared.

In 1823, German chemist Johann Wolfgang Dobereiner developed a lighter called the "Devereinner Lamp" in the name of catalyzing the hydrogen produced by the reaction of hydrochloric acid with zinc, catalyzed by platinum. Then in 1903, Carl Auer von Welsbanch found an alloy of iron and cerium as a fossil stone, which led to the creation of an oil lighter using benzene, . However, when oil lighter (gas lighter) was devised in 1946 by Prima Neres of France for liquefied petroleum gas, the oil lighter became unpopular.

On the other hand, in terms of ignition energy, the lighter has a method of igniting the ignition alloy with a reducing wheel, igniting the wick by the combustion heat of the flame, and a method of igniting the liquefied petroleum gas by heating and discharging the filament by the battery. Everything is inconvenient to replace or supplement due to the consumption of the energy source, and it is the electronic writer which semi-permanently energizes the energy source. In addition, disposable gas lighters that do not recharge gas in the early 1970s were commercially available and are now the most widely used.

These disposable gas lighters are essential for smoking cigarettes. Cigarettes are a favorite among adults, and it is common to smoke with cigarettes usually using index finger and pause. However, if you smokes a cigarette, you smell a cigarette in your hand, and even if you wash your hands cleanly, the smell of the van does not disappear easily.

Korean Utility Model Publication No. 20-2015-0002975 discloses a conventional body made of an elastic material and composed of a body including a lower fixing portion and an upper clamping portion, A cigarette holder which is elastically separable and has a support hole penetrating through the center in the horizontal direction.

However, since the lighter and the cigarette holder are separated, there is an inconvenience that the cigarette, the lighter, and the cigarette holder must be taken in order to go out, move, or smoke. The fact that cigarettes, lighters, and cigarette holders are separately distinguished indicates that the probability of being lost is high, and the user has to be more careful not to lose it.

Here, the case body unit 100_B and the clamp pair members 210_B1 and 210_B2 are connected to each other by a support rod 220_B.

Thus, the adult smoker applies force to the pressed region Z, which is the other side of each of the clamp members 210_B1 and 210_B2, to separate one side of the clamp members 210_B1 and 210_B2 and place the cigarette in the grip region P It is possible to release the force applied to the pressed region Z to fix the cigarette to the grip region P. [

For reference, the shape of the clamping members 210_B1 and 210_B2 may vary depending on the design, and is shaped to have an Eiffel tower shape.

Next, (II_C) in FIG. 4 is an insertion fixed type, (II_D) is an elastic fixing type, and (II_E) is an adhesive fixing type.

The insertion fixed type II_C includes an insertion fixing member 210_C having a ring structure having an insertion opening R corresponding to the cross sectional area of the cigarette and the insertion fixing member 210_C includes a case body Unit 100_C and a plurality of supports 220_C1, 220_C2, and 220_C3.

Here, the plurality of supports 220_C1, 220_C2, and 220_C3 have a tapered structure in which the diameter is gradually reduced, and the length can be adjusted through such a structure.

The adult smoker can adjust the length of the support rods 220_C1, 220_C2 and 220_C3 by pulling the handle H formed at one end of the insertion fixing member 210_C and insert and fix the cigarette in the gripping area P It is possible. Considering that the smell of cigarette is not handled as the position where the cigarette is inserted and the position where the hand of the adult smoker is far away is not handled, especially when a plurality of supports 220_C1, 220_C2, 220_C3 such as II_C type are used, It is possible to further secure a distance corresponding to the supports 220_C1, 220_C2, and 220_C3.

For reference, the shape of the insertion fixing member 210_C may vary according to the design, and is shaped to have a bamboo shape.

Next, the elastic fixing type II_D includes elastic pressing pieces 210_D for resiliently urging the left and right sides of the cross section of the tobacco, and the elastic pressing piece 210_D includes a case body unit 100_D And a support table 220_D. Here, the elastic pressing piece 210_D may be formed of thermoplastic resin or an elastic body, and the case body unit 100_D, the supporting unit 220_D corresponding to the fixing unit, and the elastic pressing piece 210_D may be integrally formed.

Thus, the adult smoker inserts the cigarette into the gripping region P formed at this time by opening the elastic pressing piece 210_D on both sides, releases the force applied to the elastic pressing piece 210_D, It is possible to fix it.

For reference, the shape of the resilient pressing piece 210_D may vary depending on the design, and is formed so as to have a finger shape.
