ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein is a smokers' pyrophoric lighter wherein the usual pawl and ratchet mechanism by which an actuator turns the spark wheel is replaced by a resiliently deformable friction-drive transmitting member, preferably a rubber or like elastomeric pad, the actuator being mounted so that the friction driving member can engage the spark wheel during the operative stroke and idle past the spark wheel on the return stroke.
