ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to the field of energy and is directed to a child-proof gas lighter, i.e. the gas lighter in which means for spark-forming neutralization are combined with a gas ignition mechanism. The gas ignition means comprises a gearwheel secured to a spigot and corrugated wheels positioned on a shaft which has a central portion on which the gearwheel is loosely positioned and which is formed as a polyhedron, and end portions to which the corrugated wheels are secured and which are cylindrical and are disposed within openings of brackets of the lighter body or of a holder of a spring-pressed flint. The shaft is mounted within the bracket openings so as to move along a direction of the flint spring action. An opening of the gearwheel is polyhedral, whereby a maximum diameter of the shaft in the area of the gearwheel installation is less than a minimum diameter of the opening of the gearwheel spigot. The lighter also has a support secured to the body or to a control lever, which support encircles the flint and is located between the corrugated wheels to bear the gearwheel when the shaft moves within the bracket openings toward the flint in a spark striking position. Whereby, in the absence of a force on the corrugated wheels, a gap is formed between the gearwheel spigot and the support the size of which gap is less than the stroke of the shaft end portions within the bracket openings.
