[0013] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0014] Example: Figures 1-6As shown, this embodiment provides an installation structure for a plastic direct-fire lighter, including a gas tank housing 1, a zinc alloy gas valve 2, a zinc alloy screw 3, and a plastic tube 4; the gas tank housing 1 has a through mounting hole 11; the mounting hole 11 is divided into a first hole section 111, a second hole section 112, a third hole section 113, and a fourth hole section 114 from top to bottom; a positioning groove 115 is formed on the inner wall of the fourth hole section 114, and the width of the positioning groove 115 is greater than the width of the third hole section 113; at least one sealing ring 5 is provided in the middle of the zinc alloy gas valve 2, and the middle of the zinc alloy gas valve 2 is limited in the first hole section 111, and the sealing ring 5 is in sealing contact with the inner wall of the first hole section 111; the zinc alloy... The lower part of the gold-plated air valve 2 is an internally threaded connection section 21, which is located in the second hole section 112; the upper part of the zinc alloy screw 3 is threadedly connected to the internally threaded connection section 21; a filter screen 6 and an air regulating sponge 7 are arranged sequentially from top to bottom between the upper end of the zinc alloy screw 3 and the internally threaded connection section 21; the plastic tube 4 is located in the third hole section 113, and the upper end of the plastic tube 4 is sealed to the lower part of the zinc alloy screw 3, and a limiting flat platform 41 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the plastic tube 4; the limiting flat platform 41 is positioned in the positioning groove 115 in the fourth hole section 114 to limit the rotation of the limiting flat platform 41, and the upper end of the limiting flat platform 41 abuts against the lower end wall of the third hole section 113 for limitation.
[0015] By implementing the above design, the external thread of the zinc alloy exhaust valve 2 is eliminated. During installation, the zinc alloy exhaust valve 2 is directly placed in the first hole section 111 and threadedly connected and fixed to the zinc alloy screw 3. This reduces the stress surface of the gas box housing 1, extends the service life of the gas box housing 1, and improves assembly efficiency. The internal unit head is eliminated, simplifying the structure, reducing costs, and facilitating assembly. The use of the zinc alloy screw 3 and zinc alloy exhaust valve 2 reduces costs, provides a stable flame, rapid extinguishing, and adjustable flame size. The use of the filter screen 6 and the air-regulating sponge 7 ensures high sensitivity to changes in flame size. The airflow passing through the threaded gaps and the screen increases the vaporization rate of the liquid gas, reduces the cooling effect on the T-shaped rubber, improves the instantaneous sealing effect, and shortens the extinguishing time. The plastic tube 4 is inserted below the liquid surface in the gas box to stabilize the airflow and pressure. Specifically, the zinc alloy screw 3 has an internal channel connecting the zinc alloy exhaust valve 2 and the plastic tube 4. The limiting flat platform 41 of the plastic tube 4 is limited in the positioning groove 115 and abuts against the lower end wall of the third hole section 113 to position the plastic tube 4, zinc alloy screw 3 and zinc alloy exhaust valve 2, preventing the zinc alloy screw 3 from rotating and preventing the rocker arm from lifting the exhaust needle during ignition, causing the zinc alloy exhaust valve 2 to rise as well. This achieves relative fixation of the zinc alloy screw 3, zinc alloy exhaust valve 2 and air box housing 1, and the exhaust needle and rocker arm can cooperate to open and close the valve normally.
[0016] In the mounting structure of a plastic direct-fire lighter according to this embodiment, the bottom of the gas tank housing 1 has a mounting opening for mounting a bottom cover 8. The bottom cover 8 seals the inside of the gas tank housing 1, and the mounting opening allows the plastic tube 4 and the zinc alloy screw 3 to extend into it.
[0017] In the installation structure of a plastic direct-fire lighter according to this embodiment, an annular limiting groove 22 is formed on the outer peripheral wall of the middle part of the zinc alloy gas valve 2, and a sealing ring 5 is installed in the annular limiting groove 22. This improves the sealing effect between the zinc alloy gas valve 2 and the first hole section 111.
[0018] In the mounting structure of a plastic direct-fire lighter according to this embodiment, the diameter of the first hole section 111 is larger than the diameter of the second hole section 112, and the outer diameter of the middle part of the zinc alloy gas valve 2 is larger than the diameter of the second hole section 112. This arrangement limits the middle part of the zinc alloy gas valve 2 in the first hole section 111, making the zinc alloy gas valve 2 installed stably.
[0019] In the mounting structure of a plastic direct-fire lighter according to this embodiment, the diameter of the second hole section 112 is larger than the diameter of the third hole section 113, and the outer diameter of the internal threaded connection section 21 of the zinc alloy gas valve 2 is larger than the diameter of the third hole section 113. This arrangement ensures that the internal threaded connection section 21 of the zinc alloy gas valve 2 is confined within the second hole section 112, thus stabilizing the installation of the zinc alloy gas valve 2.
[0020] In the mounting structure of a plastic direct-fire lighter of this embodiment, the gas tank shell 1 is made of AS resin. AS resin is cheaper, easier to inject, and reusable than transparent nylon PA66. Specifically, transparent nylon PA66 costs approximately 60,000 yuan per ton, while AS resin costs approximately 10,000 yuan per ton, making AS resin significantly cheaper. Furthermore, AS resin has several times the injection molding efficiency of transparent nylon. Since AS resin is brittle and cannot withstand direct stress, it is prone to cracking. By eliminating the threaded connection between the zinc alloy exhaust valve 2 and the gas tank shell 1, the stress-bearing surface of the gas tank shell 1 is reduced, extending its service life.
