ABSTRACT:
A safety arrangement for a utility lighter includes a stop post extended from a pusher button and a locking member which includes a switching member slidably mounted on a sidewall of the casing along a safety slot and a stopper extended from the switching member to the internal cavity through the safety slot to align with the stop post. The switching member is arranged to slidably drive the stopper between a locked position and an unlocked position, wherein at the locked position, the stop post is blocked by the stopper so as to block a downward movement of the pusher button for ignition, and at the unlocked position, the switch member is arranged to drive the stopper to move to an offset position that allows the pusher button to be depressed so as to depress the movable part of the piezoelectric unit for igniting the utility lighter.
