Definitions

  • the present invention relates to improvements in lighters and more particularly to means intended to protect and stabilize the flame of a compressed gas lighter.
  • Windshields are always more or less orientated and the protection ensured thereby depends therefore more or less on the orientation of the lighter with respect to the air currents to which the latter is subjected.
  • object of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks by providing the combination of a burner comprising several gas outlets and a multiple windshield protecting each outlet and disposed such that the gas is mixed with the combustive air as soon as it leaves the burner.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 show one embodiment of the invention, FIG. 1 being a plan view and FIG. 2 a view on line II ll of FIG. 1,
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 show another embodiment
  • FIG. 4 being a plan view in partial section and FIG. 4 a view on line IV IV of FIG. 3, and
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 show a third embodiment of the invention, FIG. 5 being a plan view and FIG. 6 being a view on line VI VI of FIG. 5.
  • the burner 1 is provided with three gas outlet apertures 2, 3 and 4 and three ring shaped slots 5, 6 and 7. These slots receive three Windshields 8, 9 and 10, each of which protects one of the gas outlets in a different direction, so as to protect at least one flame from any lateral air current whatever the orientation of the lighter.
  • the mixing of the gas and combustion air takes place as soon as the gas leaves the burner through passages which have been left free between the outer periphery of the burner and the inner wall of each windshield. In this way, the flame begins at the very outlet of the burner.
  • the burner 11 comprises a single gas outlet aperture 12 in which is secured a windshield 13 in the form of a cross, the four partitions of which engage in four grooves 14, 15, 16 and 17 provided in the burner 11.
  • the windshield 13 comprises, besides the four radial partitions, a solid upper portion 18 extending perpendicular to the axis of the burner.
  • the windshield 13 has two functions: on the one hand, it divides the aperture 12 of the burner into four small apertures, each of which constitutes a gas outlet and, on the other hand, by means of the four radial partitions and the solid upper portion 18, it protects the four flames leaving the burner, each flame being protected in a different direction.
  • the burner 15 also comprises a single gas outlet aperture 19 in which a multiple crossshaped windshield 20 is secured, the four ends of which are fitted in four recesses provided in the burner and which shield, as in the case of FIGS. 3 and 4 has two functions, namely to divide the aperture 19 into four small apertures and to protect, in a different direction, each flame coming from each of these small apertures.
  • a burner having a head having several spaced gas outlets, a ring-shaped slot in said burner head about each gas outlet, a tubular windshield seated in each slot and extending laterally beyond said burner head to form an air inlet at the base of the windshield.
