Description

ABSTRACT:
A pocket lighter in which the spark wheel which may produce sparks on rotating in a first direction and rubbing on the pyrophoric stone, apart from being rotatable, is movable between a first position in which it is blocked from rotating in the first direction, and a second position in which it may rotate in said first direction, producing sparks directed towards the valve. The wheel is urged towards said first position when being actuated to rotate in said first direction and to pass to said second position, said wheel should first be rotated in a direction opposite to said first direction. Preferably the positions of the spark wheel are associated with the positions of the end stubs of the shaft thereof in some housings.
