  • the lighter sheath of the alternative embodiment is determined from a hollow lower body and an upper cover that is articulated to the mouth of the lower body, into which the corresponding lighter is inserted and fitted.
  • Sliding Positioning Means for the advertising sheets they are determined by guides established on the inner faces of the side walls of the lower body, the corresponding sheets being fitted in said guides, whose advertising motifs will be visible perfectly from the outside, since the cover is transparent, just as We have mentioned before. These means can also be determined by narrow grooves made in the side walls of the lower body of the case, the sheets with advertising motifs being introduced into said grooves.
  • the sliding positioning means for the sheets with advertising motifs can also be incorporated by the upper cover of the lighter cover.
  • the lid closes perfectly when it has a hitch, constituted in general, by a projection that fits into a complementary groove in the lower body.

  • the inner shell 4 essentially has a tubular configuration, fitting it by its lower edge in a recess 6 made in the bottom 7 of the outer shell 3.
  • an intermediate sheet 8 will be housed with advertising or photographic motifs, being the same of paper, plastic material or textile material.
  • the inner shell 4 includes at its upper edge, a perimeter projection 9 of low height and low thickness that fits against the inner face of the outer shell 3, the thickness of said perimeter projection 9 being of equal thickness or slightly greater than the thickness of the intermediate sheet 8.
  • the internal housing 4 is capable of having a second lower perimeter shoulder 10 at its bottom edge, also adjusting it against the inner face of the external housing 3.
  • the bottom 7 of the external housing 3 will lack the corresponding recess 6 because it is not necessary; in such a way that the intermediate sheet 8 will be attached against the outer perimeter surface of the inner shell 4, at the same time that the horizontal edges of said intermediate sheet 8 will be adjacent to both perimeter projections 9 and 10 integral to the inner shell 4.
  • the projections 9 and 10 in the internal housing 4 it could be the external housing 3 that included such projections; in this case the projections would be found on the inner wall of the external housing 3, to fit against the internal housing 4. It is also possible to provide the two housings with projections.
  • the upper cover 2 has a rear extension 11 that is inserted into a complementary recess 12 belonging to the outer housing 3, this and said rear extension 11 having opposite cylindrical holes where a pin 13 is housed, around which articulates or ablates the upper cover 2 when using the lighter 5.

  • a cover for lighter where the elements of the articulation mechanism of the cover 2 and of the external housing 3 have been interchanged, that is to say that the rear extension 11 'is integral with the external housing 3, while the complementary recess 12' where it is inserted 11 "is in the upper cover 2. In this case also the cover 2 will articulate around the pin 13".
  • the assembly process of the set of components of the lighter cover will be carried out as follows. First, the intermediate sheet 8, stuck or not glued, will be attached against the outside face of the inner shell 4, said sheet being established between the perimeter projections 9 and 10 of said inner shell 4. When this includes only the protrusion upper 9, then the sheet is located below it. Next, the inner shell 4 will be inserted together with the intermediate sheet 8 into the outer shell 3, so that the upper shoulder 9 of the inner shell 4 will be adjusted against the inner face of the outer shell 4; leaving the sheet 8 isolated from the outside. In order to achieve a total hermetic isolation of the same, in the corresponding area of said upper protrusion 9, an ultrasonic welding or simply a heat-welding will be carried out; The joint can also be made using an adhesive, such as glue.
  • the lighter sheath is of a transparent material and is constituted from a hollow lower body 1 to which an upper lid 2 is articulately coupled; this having a rear projection 11 provided with a hole 23 in a cylindrical shape and open at its bottom to facilitate its connection in a transverse pin 13 established in an opening 12 of the lower body 1, fitting in said opening 12, the rear projection 11 of the upper cover 2.
  • the transverse pin 13 is inserted into a hole 17 of the lower body 1. In this way, the upper cover 2 will fold around said transverse pin 13 when it opens and closes it.
