ABSTRACT:
An ignition operation mechanism for slide type lighters that is capable of preventing accidental ignition or ignition due to erroneous use or the like while maintaining good operability, wherein pivots22a, 22afor an operating cap20are made substantially circular in cross section and so sized as to form a vertically movable clearance as they are locked to a support section in the lighter main body, the pivots22a, 22afor the operating cap20are normally urged to be positioned in the upper region of the interior of a support section by the spring force of a return spring for a piezoelectric mechanism4, the operating cap20is slid until a lever member21strikes the lighter main body1and no longer moves in the slide direction, from which state (a), the operating cap is pressed downward, whereby the pivots22a, 22amove downward (b) within the support section, whereupon pressing levers23, 23reach the operation stroke that overcomes the piezoelectric mechanism4, producing a discharge voltage to enable ignition.
