ABSTRACT:
An igniter device for a gas lamp of the type having a main mantle burner and a main control valve operated by a control lever, is provided with an auxiliary valve controlling the gas flow to an auxiliary burner the flame from which is directed onto the mantle to ignite this when fed with gas. The main control lever is connected to a piezo-electric spark generator which is operated by the lever to generate sparks as the main valve is moved to a fully open position. The auxiliary valve is also linked to the main control lever so as to be opened just as or just before the piezo-electric spark generator is operated whereby ignition of the auxiliary burner and hence the main burner is effected by the single operation of the main control lever to fully open the main flow control valve. The construction includes means for ensuring that the auxiliary valve is closed when the main control lever is released.
