摘要: The present invention relates to a lighter including a housing having a handle at one end and a nozzle at another end and including a fuel supply connected for selective fluid communication with the nozzle. A release member is cooperatively connected to the housing to initiate the flow of fuel from the fuel supply to the nozzle. An ignitor, such as a piezoelectric mechanism, is provided for generating a spark proximate the nozzle. A trigger spaced from the release member is operatively connected to the housing for actuating the ignitor for the generation of a spark igniting the fuel present at the nozzle.

摘要: The present invention relates to a utility lighter including a housing having a handle at one end and a nozzle with an outlet at another end and including a fuel supply connected for selective fluid communication with the nozzle. An electric ignitor assembly, such as a piezoelectric mechanism, has first and second electrical contacts operatively connected to a first electrical pathway. The first electrical pathway includes a first gap proximate the outlet. An ignition preventing assembly forming a second electrical pathway is also operatively connected to the electric ignitor assembly and has operative and inoperative configurations. In the inoperative configuration, the resistance of the second electrical pathway is less than the resistance of the first electrical pathway such that electrical current generated by the electric ignitor assembly selectively travels in the second electrical pathway. In the operative configuration, the resistance of the second electrical pathway is greater than the resistance of the first electrical pathway such that the electrical current selectively travels in the first electrical pathway and jumps across the first gap to form a spark to ignite fuel from the fuel supply. The second electrical pathway can be a continuous pathway to short circuit the electrical ignitor assembly in the inoperative condition. The second electrical pathway can also include a gap smaller than the first gap so that the spark is formed across this gap rather than the first gap in the inoperative condition. The ignition preventing assembly can be coupled with various mechanical mechanisms for preventing unwanted actuation.

摘要: The present invention relates to a lighter which a user actuates by at least two different modes of operation. In the first mode, a biasing member is positioned to oppose movement of an actuating assembly so that a user releases fuel and ignites the lighter only if a high-actuation-force is applied to the actuator. In this first mode, the lighter resists operation by unintended users by requiring a user to have a predetermined level of strength to actuate the lighter. In the second mode, the biasing member is moved to a different position which does not oppose movement of the actuating assembly to the same extent as the first mode so that a user may release fuel and ignite the lighter if a low-actuation-force is applied to the actuator. Moving the biasing element from the first position to the second position preferably requires the user to have a predetermined level of cognitive abilities and/or physical characteristics in order to resist use by unintended users.

摘要: The present invention relates to a lighter which a user actuates by at least two different modes of operation. In the first mode, a plunger member is positioned to allow a biasing member to oppose movement of an actuating assembly so that a user releases fuel and ignites the lighter only if a high-actuation-force is applied to the actuator. In this first mode, the lighter resists operation by unintended users by requiring a user to have a predetermined level of strength to actuate the lighter. In the second mode, the plunger member is moved to a different position so that the biasing member does not oppose movement of the actuating assembly to the same extent as the first mode so that a user may release fuel and ignite the lighter if a low-actuation-force is applied to the actuator. Moving the plunger member from the first position to the second position preferably requires the user to have a predetermined level of cognitive abilities and/or physical characteristics in order to resist use by unintended users. The lighter further includes a pivotal wand assembly. The wand assembly is operatively associated with a cam follower to allow only partial depression of an actuator when the wand assembly is in a closed position. Full depression of the actuator increases difficulty when the wand assembly is partially or fully extended.

摘要: An anti-drip filter assembly includes a filter cartridge assembly, a sump and an anti-drip element. The filter cartridge assembly includes a filter element and an end cap permanently attached to the filter element. The sump encloses the filter cartridge assembly. The anti-drip element is separate and distinct from the filter cartridge and the sump and is configured for insertion into the unfiltered fluid flow path.
