ABSTRACT:
The ignition device of the lighter comprises a striker wheel (6) acting on a spark stone (2). The striker wheel is disposed between two plates (7) and (8) of greater diameter than and freely rotatable with respect to the wheel. Actuation of this latter is obtained by friction thanks to the deformation (11) of the pulp of the thumb (10) of the user, and may not be driven by a child as the pulp of the finger of children is not sufficiently thick.
