Detailed Implementation
[0024] like Figures 1-8 As shown, a lighter launched by a roller includes a housing 200 for mounting an ignition device 100. A flip cover 300 is provided on the top of the housing 200. One end of the flip cover 300 is hinged to the housing 200. A first elastic device (not shown in the figure) is provided inside the flip cover 300 to force the flip cover 300 to open. A roller 210 is provided on the housing 200 and at a position relative to the other end of the flip cover 300 to prevent the flip cover 300 from opening. The roller 210 is rotatably connected to the housing 200. The flip cover 300 is opened and closed by the rotation of the roller 210 on the housing 200. The first elastic device enables the flip cover 300 to have a launch function. The specific usage method is detailed below.
[0025] The roller 210 is provided with a locking block 211 to prevent the flip cover 300 from opening, and the flip cover 300 is provided with a stop part 310 that cooperates with the locking block 211. The flip cover 300 and the housing 200 are limited by the cooperation of the locking block 211 and the stop part 310. The first elastic device, the second elastic device and the third elastic device can be a torsion spring structure. The roller 210 and the flip cover 300 enter the locked state by the cooperation of the locking block 211 and the stop part 310.
[0026] The ignition device 100 includes a cotton wick 110 for ignition and combustion, and the flip cover 300 includes a plug 320 for sealing the cotton wick 110. A stop part 310 is disposed on the plug 320. The flip cover 300 and the housing 200 are limited by the cooperation of the plug 320 and the locking block 211. The plug 320 is disposed on the flip cover 300 so that the flame can be extinguished directly when the flip cover 300 is closed. The stop part 310 is disposed on the plug 320, which extends the engagement position between the plug 320 and the locking block 211, making the structure more reasonable. The plug 320 can be fixed inside the flip cover 300 by screw fastening.
[0027] The housing 200 includes a connecting seat 220 for mounting the ignition device 100 and fixedly assembled with the housing 200. The roller 210 is rotatably connected to the connecting seat 220 through a first pin 212. The connecting seat 220 can be fixedly assembled in the housing 200 by a tight fit. The ignition device 100 also includes an ignition stone 140, etc.
[0028] The flip cover 300 is rotatably connected to the housing 200 via the second pin 330. The axial directions of the first pin 212 and the second pin 330 are parallel. There are many possible positions and rotation directions of the roller 210. This application preferably adopts a structure in which the first pin 212 and the second pin 330 are parallel to each other, which is ergonomic.
[0029] The ignition device 100 includes a grinding wheel 120 that cooperates with ignition and rotatably engages with the connecting seat 220. Ratchets 121 are provided on both sides of the grinding wheel 120. A lever 340 for actuating the ratchet 121 is provided on the flip cover 300. The lever 340 is rotatably connected to the flip cover 300. A first elastic device is disposed between the flip cover 300 and the lever 340, and the flip cover 300 and the lever 340 are supported apart by the engagement of the first elastic device. The ignition device 100 includes a pawl 130 that engages with the ratchet 121. The pawl 130 is rotatably connected to the connecting seat 220. The connecting seat 220 is provided with a second elastic device (not shown in the figure) that forces the pawl 130 to engage with the ratchet 121. When the flip cover 300 is opened, the ignition device 100 achieves ignition through the mutual cooperation of the paddle block 340, the grinding wheel 120 and the ratchet 121. For details of this part of the structure, please refer to the patent application number 202322923274.5, entitled "Automatic Kerosene Lighter". The pawl 130 makes the ratchet 121 rotate only in one direction.
[0030] The connecting seat 220 is provided with a stop 221 to limit the rotation of the lever 340. The stop 221 is added to prevent the flip cover 300 from being opened excessively.
[0031] The roller 210 is provided with a third elastic device (not shown in the figure) to prevent the flip cover 300 from opening. The addition of the third elastic device makes the roller 210 always lock the flip cover 300, preventing the flip cover 300 from opening. When it is opened, the elastic restoring force of the third elastic device must be overcome.
[0032] The housing 200 is provided with a groove 230 for accommodating some of the rollers 210. The addition of the groove 230 allows most of the rollers 210 to be nested inside the housing 200, making the appearance more attractive and preventing accidental operation.
[0033] The side of the roller 210 is provided with anti-slip texture, which can be designed as a concave-convex structure to increase hand friction and facilitate the rotation of the roller 210.
[0034] How to use:
[0035] In the locked state, the roller 210 holds the flip cover 300 in place by the locking block 211. At this time, the first elastic device between the flip cover 300 and the toggle block 340 is compressed to form an elastic restoring force, and the flip cover 300 is waiting to be ejected. When ignition is needed, simply rotate the roller 210 over the third elastic device. The locking block 211 on the roller 210 will disengage from the stop part 310. Due to the presence of the first elastic device, the flip cover 300 and the lever 340 will quickly open. The lever 340 is rotatably connected to the flip cover 300. As the flip cover 300 opens, it pulls the lever 340 in the opening direction. The lever 340 being pulled causes the ratchet 121 to rotate. The rotation of the ratchet 121 also means that the grinding wheel 120 rotates. The grinding wheel 120, together with the flint 140 at the bottom, ignites the wick 110, completing the automatic ignition. After use, rotate the flip cover 300 to make the stop part 310 re-engage the locking block 211, and the lighter re-enters the locked state to wait for the next use.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Simple modifications and substitutions made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model are within its protection scope.
