Abstract
Lighter using liquefied gas under pressure comprises a casing, a cap for said casing, a reservoir provided with a valve leading to a burner, and an ignition mechanism comprising an abrasive wheel, a flint biassed against the abrasive wheel, and valve control means actuated by the movement of said cap through a spring, one part of which spring is connected to the cap to hold it in either open or closed position and the other part of which spring is adapted to be displaced by the movement of the spring part connected to the cap and cooperates with the valve to open the valve during opening of the cap. The spring also comprises a third part cooperating with the flint to bias said flint against the abrasive wheel.
