ABSTRACT:
A gas lighter with a safety device for locking an actuating lever which causes the emission of fuel, wherein the safety device automatically returns to the locking state after the ignition of the lighter, thereby preventing the lighter from being left in the released state, preventing inadvertent ignition of the lighter, and improving the reliability of the safety device. A path is defined on the upper surface of a lighter body, and a locking member slidably engages the path, wherein the locking member is provided with, at one end thereof, an engaging recess and, at the other end thereof, a blocking end. An actuating lever is provided with a skirt, a recess, and a leg. A holding member including a cantilever arm is integrally formed on the wall surface which faces the path, wherein an angled engaging part and a protuberance are formed on the end of the cantilever. When the locking member is slidably moved along the path, so that the angled engaging part engages the engaging recess, the blocking end part abutting against the skirt enters the recess, and the leg forces down the protuberance, thereby releasing the lock mechanism.
