In'Hungary January 12, 1934 2 Claims.
The friction surfaces of match boxes are usually applied on one or both narrow sides of boxes of prismatic-shape fitted with an inserted sliding part, or in the case of fiat packages, on one of the lateral surfaces of the package. In consequence of this arrangement the matches are drawn by their users along the whole length of the box, that is to say the entire length of the friction surface, although a substantially shorter length of contact between the friction surface and the ignition head, than the'length of the whole friction surface is suiiicient, a fact which is easily proved by drawing the match over the friction surface in a transverse direction, that is, a distance which is only about one-third of the length `of the friction surface. Owing to this fact, the friction surface, will be worn to a greater extent than is necessary for the ignition itself. In consequence hereof the ignition surface will become unservicecase of users like cafes, restaurants and the likel who possess match lighting devices intended for use during a considerable length of time, which it is intended to rell after the matches have been consumed, without replacing the friction surface itself by a new one.
'Ihe object of the invention is to remove this drawback and substantially improve the friction surface by fitting the latter-no matter whether it is applied on boxes, match lighting devices or igniting surfaces of any desired kind-with a protecting or reinforcing layer on certain parts of the surface. By this layer, which may consist of a material suitable for lighting the match or of some other material which becomes worn under the abrasive effect of the match, or of someV In the accompanying drawing wherein the invention is illustrated:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a match lighting device constructed in accordance with the invention.
Fig. 2 is a transverse sec-tionhofA Fig. 1. n Referring to the drawing in detail, the numeral l indicates the body of a conventional form of preferably be employed for advertising purposes. '15 Y In this case the protecting or reinforcinglayer is applied or placed on the friction surface in such a manner that it appears either itself in the form of inscriptions, signs, figures, or thev like or that the `friction surface proper situated tions, signs, figures, or the like.
The protecting or reinforcing layer 4 may consist of the same material of which the friction surface itself consists, or of some other material, and preferably this layer projects from the surface of the friction compound in the form of relief so that this layer instead of decreasing the i tionv surface. The advertisement .formed by the projecting layer remains visible on thefriction surface during a long period in spite of its gradual wear, and after it is completely worn away,
a substantially unusued friction surface is avail-'i able below it. The color of the layer may, particularly for advertising purposes, differ from that of the friction surface, in order to ensure that the advertisement is clearly discernible. It is further also possible to admix luminous compounds or luminous colors to the material of the protecting or reinforcing layer, whereby the advertisement is visible in the dark also.
As material for the protecting or reinforcing layer it is possible to employ for instance printing paints, the layer of paint being applied on the friction surface either during `the production of the latter or being applied by a separate procedure on the completed friction'surface, for instance by printing, rubber stamping, or stencilling. To the paint, likewise, it is possible'to admix luminous compounds or the layer may be produced of printing paints containing .luminous below it is left exposed in the form of inscrip- '20' paints. Further it is possible to admix to the paint, in a manner per se known, reinforcing materials in order to enable to control the Wear of the layer applied on the friction surface Within certain limits.
The application or the printing on of the protective or reinforcing Vlayers may preferably be effected during the course of the production of the carrier of the igniting compound (box or at package) preferably so that the application of the layer should join on immediately to the process of manufacture.
The invention is suitable for lighting devices and friction surfaces of all kinds, that is to say, for larger or smaller boxes with inserted sliding parts, as well as for flat match packages as well as for the friction surfaces of paper and Wax matches.
What I claim is:
1. A match lighting device having a surface formed of a coating of friction compound, said surface having an inscription applied thereon in the form of a protective layer, said layer being adapted to be worn away incident to the striking of matches thereon to expose the underlying and unused portion of said coating of friction compound.
2. A match striking device comprising a fiat supporting surface, a striking surface formed of a frictional effaceable coating of friction compound Yapplied to said supporting surface, and a striking layer covering at least a portion of said striking surface and leaving the remaining portions of the latter exposed, said striking layer being also frictionally eifacea'ble during use whereby to expose the underlying and unused portion of the friction compound.
