ABSTRACT:
A lighter utilizing a piezoelectric spark ignition system comprises a casing composed of a casing body having hinged at one end a casing lid for opening and closing the casing. A fuel reservoir tank having a burner at its upper end is mounted within the casing body adjacent the end of the casing remote from that at which the casing lid is hinged. A piezoelectric spark generating unit is mounted in the casing body adjacent the end at which the casing lid is hinged and is situated side by side with the fuel reservoir tank. The piezoelectric unit is actuated in response to manually depressing an actuating member mounted along one of the sides of the casing. The burner and actuating member are situated at the upper part of the casing and are substantially concealed beneath the casing lid when the lid is in its closed position. The burner and actuating member are exposed for use upon upward swinging movement of the casing lid from its closed position.
