a In France May 6, 1942 Section 1, Public Law 690, August 8, 1946 Patent expires May 6, 1962 9 Claims.
The present invention relates to lighters of the type utilizing as fuel liquiilcd compressed gases.
It has for its object an improved lighter of this kind.
According to our invention, we provide a lighter of the type referred to characterized by the use of multiple and successive expansion of the gas before it escapes through the outlet nozzle, for the purpose of permitting the convenient and practical utilization of these gases for cigarette lighters.
The invention is applicable to all lighters, whether pocket or table lighters.
The multiple, 1. e. double or triple expansion, is advantageously made adjustable and is ob tained uniquely by mechanical means; it is advantageously obtained by means of a first expansion effected in the fuel container itself and is followed by one or more subsequent successive expansions produced by one or several mechanical pressure-reducing valves finally reducing the pressure of the gas when it escapes through the burner, to a pressure slightly higher than the atmospheric pressure.
Owing to the adjustments provided, the arrangement allows to utilize liquified compressed fuel gases of different types; it allows particularly the use of liquid fuels, the boiling points of which vary between 22 and 15.
The first expansion effected in the container itself will be advantageously obtained by utilizing, in the latter, a solid absorbent material in 'any suitable form (pulverulent, fibrous, com-- pressed or otherwise), intended to absorb the liquified gaseous fuel.
In the drawing Fig. 1 is a diagrammatic view of a storage container, according to our present invention;
Fig. 2 is a diagrammatic view of a lighter equipped with a removable storage container in accordance with our present invention; and
Fig. 3 is an expansion curve obtained by means of the arrangement which constitutes the object of the invention.
The problem to be solved consists in reducing the pressure of the compressed liquiiled gas which is in the container to a pressure slightly superior to the atmospheric pressure when it escapes through the burner.
In accordance with our invention the combined gas expansion and outlet means for the storage container as shown in Fig. 1, consist of a cylindrical tube a projecting into the container 1: for the liquiiicd gas. This tube is provided with two devices 0 and a, such as taps, needle valves, plates provided with apertures of adjustable sections, perforated plates provided with constant apertures of calculated sections, or any other ad- Justable or calibrated closure devices. These flow adjusting and closure devices c and e are preferably arranged in the outlet tube and spaced from each other and both ends of the outlet tube as clearly shown in Figures 1 and 2, so as to form three expansion chambers 4.1 d, and d.
The adjustment of 0 will reduce the pressure of the gas flowing through c into the expansion chamber d to a pressure p which is lower than the pressure P of the gas in expansion chamber (2 The device 0 will further reduce during operation of the lighter the pressure of the gas of the chamber d to a pressure p in the expansion chamber d which is lower than the pressure p and in the neighborhood of the external pressure.
This arrangement permits to obtain at the burner f a flame which can be regulated from a few millimeters to several centimeters.
In the container 1) shown in Figure 2, the liquified fuel gas, for example butane, is absorbed by an absorbent material b in the solid state, such as a silicate (asbestos, porous earth), cotton, peat, or other solid substance in the pulverulent compressed or porous state.
It is, therefore, in the expansion chamber d between the absorbent material b and the flow restricting device 0 that the first expansion takes place, i. e. before the second expansion in the expansion chamber d, which is caused by 0 Furthermore, by provision of the expansion chamber 11 one will avoid the passage through c of liquid particles which could upset the adjustment by creating eventually a liquid seal. A further expansion is obtained in the expansion chamber (1 by means of valve c as explained above.
The Figure 3 represents an expansion curve obtained by the above described arrangement: on this curve are plotted as abscissae the times '1 and as ordinates the pressures P; the portion D of the curve represents the expansion in the solid absorbent material, the portion D the expansion in the first expansion chamber d, the portion D the expansion in the second expansion chamber d. and the portion D the last expansion in the third expansion chamber d The ignition of the gas at the burner I may be efl'ected by any one of the processes in current use, for example, a ferro-cerium flint 9 shown in Figure 2, platinum wire or sponge, orv
electric ignition.
It will be seen that the multi-pressure-reducing apparatus which constitutes the object of the invention is, either adjustable at will, or else may be adjusted once for all for a specified fuel. The above described self-contained fuel storage unit is applicable to all pocket-lighters and desklighters utilizing compressed liquifled gaseous fuels.
As shown in Figure 2, the removable fuel storage unit, which is independent of the i nition system mounted on the lighter h and including the flint g, is constituted by the self-contained container b of liquified compressed fuel gas provided with all parts of its system of expansion and its burner, i. e. the outlet tube a, the valve means 0 and c and the burner ,f.
It goes without saying that the details of execution which have been represented and described above are only preferred examples of the realization of the invention and that the latter is capable of all possible variations.
