' This invention relates to cigar lighters and has as an object to pro-vide an enclosure for protecting the user against possible burns and to also protect the pilot flame against being extinguishedby drafts.
Another object of this invention resides in the novel construction of the enclosing housing.
With the above and other objects in View which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the novel construction, combination and arrangement .of parts substantially as hereinafter described and more particularly defined by the Y appended claims, it being understood that such changes in the precise embodiment of the hereindisclosed invention may be made as come within the scope of the claims.
In the accompanying drawing are illustrated two complete examples of thephysical embodiment of the invention constructed according to the best modes so far devised for the practical application of the principles `.hood 12 is carried bythe tube 9 and is proi thereof, and in which Figure 1 is a side elevation of a cigar lighter constructed in accordance with this invention parts being broken away and in section to illustrate structural details.
Figure 2 is a developed view of one of supply line,l not shown, and a valve, not sho-wn, adapted to be actuated upon depression of a plunger 7 to afford communication from the inlet end to the outlet end 8 of the casing, to which a tube 9 is attached.
The valve structure within the casing is 4 of conventional design and is, therefore, not shown in detail,and as is customary in valves of this character, a by pass is provided toy maintain a pilot flame at a burner tip 11, the volume of fuel which passes through the by pass being adjustable by ascrew 10.

1. The tip 11 is fixed to theupper end of v the tube 9 and upon depression of the plunger 7 and the consequent opening of the main valve, the volume of fuel flowing through the tube kto the tip is suddenlyV greatly increased: to produce a comparatively large flame at the tip 11. l
Heretofore it has been customary to eitherV leave the burner tip entirely open or to provide a shield which was intended to preclude. the pilot flame from being extinguished byv drafts. Y This shield, however, did 'not-pro-V tect the user against possible burns andas A very often the flame is of substantialpropori tions and suddenly flashes up, there is abou-:M5
ysiderable danger of the user being burned,
This invention contemplatesthe provision of aprotectin'g enclosure which not only prevents drafts from extinguishing the. pilot a'me, but also entirely encloses the main'fg flame during'use. VThis protective housing comprises two similar hoods 12 and 13 spaced apart .by an intermediate spacerl 14. The
rplurality of openings 16 in its `closed-top through which the exhaust gases are vented.
The intermediate spacerflt comprisesa cylindrical shell provided with an opening k17g-.30`
of substantial diameterfwhich affords access to the interior of the enclosure and through which the cigar or cigarette to be lit maybe Y e opposite ends of the spacer 14 are ]g referablyv offset, as at 18, vto be telescoped.
`within the open ends of the hoods 12 land 13, Vand the -spacer is preferably formed by cut` ting semi-circular notches in thevends of a flat ,stripA as lillustrated in F igure 2, so that upon forming the strip to cylindrical shape the?.V notches come together andprovide 4the jopeny If desired, a baffle 19 may be provided to further protect the pilot flame against-.being extinguished by a draft. This bafiie,as.illustrated inl VFigure 3, preferably comprises a cup shaped member whose cylindrical wall 20 is snugly received in the 'lower hood member 12 and whose transverse wall 21 Vis Vprovidedwith a central opening; 22 'throughilfl' Y Vburningat the tip, comprising a pair of op- `posed hood Vmembers, one of which is supr 'orted from the burnertin Vand' a tubular lighters' whichnotl only protects the user against possible burns, but also guards `the pilot flame and prevents its being extin-Y guished-by drafts. What I claim as myinvention is tA y p l. In a cigar and cigarette light-er including a burner tip, an enclosure for a flame spacer positioned between the hood members and having an opening through which a cigar or cigarette may be inserted for .con-
" tact with the flame. v
