UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM G. CHAPMAN, OF HUNTINGTON, WEST VIRGINIA, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO THOMAS J. FEUGATE, OF HUNTINGTON, WEST VIRGINIA.
' ELECTRIC GAS-LIGHTER.
Application aim April 8, 1916.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, \VILLIAM G. CHAP- MAN, a citizen of the United States, resid ing at Huntington, in the county of Cabell and State of West Virginia, have invented new and useful Improvements in Electric GasLighters, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to an electric gas lighter and has for its primary object to provide a device of this character in. which the sparking element may be readily renewed. An object of the invention is the manner of mounting the electrodes so that it is impossible for the user to be given a shock.
lVith these and other objects in view, the invention consists in the construction, combination and ar 'angement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing and pointed out in the claims hereunto appended.
ln the drawing :-F igure 1 is a. side elevation oi. the device. Fig. 2 is a longitudi nal section view of the device. Fig. 3 is a diagrammatic view of the wiring.
Referring to the drawing, the numeral 1 designates a. tube of insulating material in one end oil which is mounted the insulating plug 2 supporting a pair of electrodes 3 in spaced relation. The electrodes 3 are of such a length relative to the plug that the ends project beyond the plug, so as to Form arcing portions fl and cnd portions 5 adapt-- ed to be connected to a circuit to be described later. 'll aving screw threaded engagement with the end of the tube or trictionally held thereupon is a clamping ring 6 adapted to hold the plug 2 within the tube. Frictionally cooperating with the. ring 6 is a cap 7 adapted to protect the arc ing portions t in the idle periods of the device. The opposite end of the tube has secured thereto a handle 8 through which and the tube 1. pass plungers i) and, lo, the former controllin a. switch l2, the latter controlling a switch 11.
The switch 11 controls the continuity of a. circuit 13 including the ele trodes 15 source Specification 'of Letters Iatent.
Patented Aug. 1, 1916.
Serial No. 89,880.
of current 1t and the induction coil 15, while the switch 12 controls the continuity of a circuit 16 that includes an electric bulb 17 supported by the tube 1 that receives current from the source 14. From the fore going description it will be seen that depressing the plunger 9 will cause the bulb 17 to be energized lIKlGPQHClBIlhOf the remaining elements; whereas depressing the plunger 10 will cause a spark to jump across the electrodes 3 for igniting the gas.
At this point, I wish to call attention to the fact that the plungers 9 and 10 are so associated as to be simultaneously depressed for energizing the bulb 17 and causing the spark to jump across the electrodes 3.
From the foregoing description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, it should beapparent that I provide a de vice which is admirably adapted for the purpose for which it is intended, that the device is simple, durable and ellicient of construction and that the device may be manufactured and sold at a comparatively low cost.
What I claim is 1. An electric gas lighter comprising a tube, a handle mounted on the tube, a plug mounted at one end of the tube, a pair of electrodes supported in spaced relation in said plug, and means for passing a spark across the electrodes, said means including a push button having the slidable member mounted in both the handle and tube.
2. An electric gas lighter comprising a tube. a handle mounted onthe tube, a. plug mounted at one end of the tube, a pair of electrodes supported in spaced relation in said plug. means for passing a spark across the electrodes. said means including a push button having the slidablc member mounted in both the handle and tube. and a ring mounted on one end oi. the tube and clamping said plug within the tube.
