The structure that the head cover 3 is connected to the outer casing 1 and the inner core 2 is linked to the head cover 3, compared with the structure that the head cover 3 is connected to the inner core 2 in the prior art, saves the elastic member acting on the head cover 3, does not need to overcome the elastic force in the lifting driving process of the inner core 2, saves labor in operation, and avoids the problem that the local part of the head cover 3 frequently rubs against the outer casing 1 to cause abrasion; the structure that the head cover 3 is connected to the outer casing 1 and the inner core 2 is linked to the head cover 3 enables the inner core 2 not to be easily separated from the outer casing 1, and the inner core 2 is stably mounted.

[0028] In order to make the appearance of the present application beautiful, the head cover 3 is closed to make the top surface flush with the top surface of the outer casing 1.

Whether the inner mechanism 2 is higher than the outer casing 1 after being raised can be adaptively designed according to actual needs, and the structure in which the inner mechanism 2 is higher than the outer casing 1 after being raised has a small height of the outer casing 1 and a compact structure of the lighter when in the reset state.

[0035] In the present application, the side of the inner mechanism 2 is provided with an elastic holding mechanism 24 abutting against the outer casing 1, which can make the operation of the inner mechanism 2 stable by increasing a certain friction force, and the ball of the elastic holding mechanism 24 can also be connected with a clamping groove on the inner wall of the outer casing 1 to lock the inner mechanism 2, thereby preventing the inner mechanism 2 from accidentally falling in the use state.

[0036] In order to facilitate the operation, the flip lighter also includes a lifting operation mechanism 4 acting on the inner mechanism 2.

[0037] In the present application, the lifting operation mechanism 4 can be arranged on the outer casing 1 or the inner mechanism 2, and when the lifting operation mechanism 4 is arranged on the outer casing 1, the lifting operation mechanism 4 can be a rotatable cam driving structure abutting against the inner mechanism 2, which is used to push the inner mechanism 2 to rise by rotating the cam driving structure, and the inner mechanism 2 can be pushed to fall by rotating the cam driving structure or pressing the head cover 3 with the hand.

Even if the inner mechanism 2 remains in a stable descending state or ascending state, the lifting can be controlled when the guide part enters the communication groove 113 from the locking hole, wherein the locking block 43 is slidingly arranged on the inner mechanism 2, which can stably install the lifting operating mechanism 4 and reliably drive the inner mechanism 2 to lift.
