Benefits of technology

"The present invention provides a lighter with a light effect arrangement that can create a light-on and light-off effect based on the operation of the lighter. Additionally, the lighter has a mirror attached to it for enriching its function. The lighter also has a half mirror that can be activated to expose an image hidden inside the lighter casing. The lighter can achieve these functions without changing its original structure, minimizing manufacturing costs. The lighter includes a lighter casing with a liquefied fuel storage, a power source cavity, and a light window. It also has a gas nozzle for controlling the flow of gas, an ignition actuator for releasing the gas and actuating the sparks producing means, and a light effect arrangement with a power source, an illuminator, and a light effect actuator for creating the light-on and light-off effects."

Problems solved by technology

First of all, the disposable lighters still contain flammable fluid when they were failed to be serviceable.

Abstract

The present invention discloses a lighter having a light effect arrangement, which includes a power source disposed in a power source cavity, an illuminator which is supported on a light window of the lighter casing to electrically connected to the power source; and a light effect actuator movably supported on the lighter casing between a light-off position and a light-on position, wherein at the light-off position, the illuminator is electrical disconnected with the power source to generate a light-off effect within the light window, and at the light-on position, the illuminator is electrical connected to the power source to generate a light-on effect within the light window.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE PRESENT INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a lighter, and more particularly to a lighter which comprises a light effect arrangement to provide a light-on effect and a light-off effect according to an ignition operation of the lighter. [0003] 2. Description of Related Arts [0004] A lighter is a common tool that replaces matches for igniting cigarettes and cigars. Generally, there are two types of lighter, namely the disposable lighter that the lighter is disposed after the fuel is used up and the refillable lighter that the fuel thereof is adapted for being refilled to prolong the service life span of the lighter. [0005] As far as these two options concerned, most smokers preferred to choose refillable lighters which could be used in a recycling manner. First of all, the disposable lighters still contain flammable fluid when they were failed to be serviceable. And more importantly, the users want to stick to their personal...
