Description
Lighter with integrated housing Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of lighters and relates to a lighter with an integrated shell. Background Art
[0002] A Chinese patent document discloses a lighter with an integrated housing, with the authorization announcement number CN210197342U. The lighter includes a body, an integrated housing, and a fire adjustment ring. The integrated housing includes a main body mounted on the body and a windshield extending upward. The integrated housing has a fire adjustment hole, and an operating member is separately fixedly connected to the fire adjustment ring, and the operating member passes through the fire adjustment hole. Since the operating member and the fire adjustment ring are separately fixedly connected, the operating member can be fixed to the fire adjustment ring after the integrated housing is mounted on the body. This ensures the integrity of the integrated housing, improves the strength of the integrated housing, and facilitates the complete assembly of the integrated housing. However, this solution is to mount the integrated housing on the body from the lower end of the body upwards. There will be an obvious gap between the upper end of the integrated housing and the body, and foreign matter can easily be embedded between the integrated housing and the body. The upper end of the integrated housing is also prone to outward deformation. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The utility model aims to solve the problems existing in the prior art and proposes a lighter with an integrated shell, so as to overcome the defect of the prior art that foreign objects are easily embedded between the upper end of the integrated shell and the body.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention
[0023] The following is a further detailed description of the specific implementation of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings to make the technical solution of the present invention easier to understand and grasp. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0024] This embodiment provides a lighter, as shown in Figures 1-6, comprising a body 100 and an integral housing 200. The integral housing 200 comprises an integrally connected main body 210 and a windshield 220. The upper end of the windshield 220 has a top wall 221 that folds inward. The body 100 is provided with a button 300. The width of the button 300 is less than or equal to the width of the corresponding inner cavity of the integral housing 200, so that the button 300 can pass through the integral housing 200 and extend out of the integral housing 200. A pressing member 400 is detachably provided at the upper end of the button 300. The width of the pressing member 400 is greater than the width of the inner cavity of the integral housing 200. Because the button 300 needs to pass through the inner cavity of the integral housing 200, the upper end of the button 300 cannot be too wide. Pressing a finger directly on a small button 300 is less comfortable. The pressing member 400 can increase the contact surface of the finger, thereby improving the tactile sensation of pressing.
[0025] The body 100 is made of plastic, while the integrated housing 200 is made of metal, which may be an iron shell. The body 100 has an upwardly extending guide slot 110, and the button 300 has a guide portion 310 that engages within the guide slot 110. Pressing the pressing member 400 downward causes the guide portion 310 to move downward along the guide slot 110, causing the button 300 to move downward relative to the body 100. Releasing the pressing member 400 allows the lighter inside the body 100 to push the button 300 upward. The upper end of the button 300 abuts against the lower surface of the top wall 221, preventing it from detaching from the body 100. During installation, first embed the guide part 310 into the guide groove 110 so that the button 300 is assembled on the body 100, then insert the assembled body 100 and button 300 into the integrated shell 200 from the lower end of the integrated shell, so that the button 300 extends out of the integrated shell 200, and finally fix the pressing part 400 to the upper end of the button 300.
[0026] Furthermore, the integrated housing 200 has a snap-fit portion 230, and the body 100 has a slot 120, and the snap-fit portion 230 is inserted into the slot 120. In this way, when the integrated housing 200 is held and the button 300 is pressed with the thumb, the body 100 will not move downward relative to the integrated housing 200.
[0027] As shown in Figures 5 and 6, the inner cavity of the main body 210 is cylindrical with the same upper and lower dimensions, and the lower end of the inner cavity of the main body 210 is open to allow the fuselage 100 to be inserted, that is, the lower end of the main body 210 does not have a flange folded inward, which is conducive to a closer fit between the fuselage 100 and the inner wall of the integrated shell 200, reducing the shaking of the fuselage 100 relative to the integrated shell 200. In other optional embodiments, the lower end of the main body 210 may also have fewer flanges. In other optional embodiments, the width of the inner cavity may also gradually decrease from bottom to top.
[0028] Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 1-4 , the lower end of the fuselage 100 has a convex ring 130 , and the convex ring 130 abuts against the lower end of the main body 210 .
[0029] As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the top of the button 300 has an upwardly protruding bump 320. The upper end of the bump 320 abuts against the lower surface of the top wall 221, and the bump 320 abuts against the end of the pressing member 400. The side wall of the button 300 has a mounting groove 340, and the inner side wall of the pressing member 400 has a mounting rib 410. The mounting rib 410 engages with the mounting groove 340 to restrict the pressing member 400 from moving upward relative to the button 300. The button 300 and the pressing member 400 are fixed together by a snap 330. The pressing member 400 is snapped onto the snap 330 to prevent it from separating from the button 300. The snap 330 and the bump 320 together restrain the pressing member 400 from moving forward or backward, making the fixing of the pressing member 400 more stable and less prone to back-and-forth shaking. In this embodiment, the pressing member 400 is laterally inserted into the key 300 during installation. In other optional embodiments, the pressing member 400 can also be snapped onto the key 300 from top to bottom. In other optional embodiments, the key 300 may not have the mounting groove 340. The upper end of the key 300 may be laterally protruding, and the mounting rib 410 abutting against the underside of the protruding structure can also prevent the pressing member 400 from moving upward.
[0030] As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the button 300 has an upwardly opening mounting cavity 350, within which a separate component 351 is disposed. The pressing component 400 is transparent. Thus, the separate component 351 and the button 300 can be made of different colored materials. Within the mounting cavity 350 is a logo 352 integrally formed with the button 300. The separate component 351 has a through hole 353, through which the logo 352 passes. This allows the logo 352 to create a three-dimensional visual effect relative to the separate component 351, and can also be designed with color differentiation, making the logo 352 more clearly visible and enhancing the aesthetics.
[0031] As shown in Figure 4, a boss 354 is provided within the mounting cavity 350, and the logo 352 is located on the upper surface of the boss 354. The outer dimensions of the boss 354 gradually increase from top to bottom, and the split member 351 is mounted on the boss 354. This reduces the difficulty of aligning the through-hole 353 and the logo 352, thereby improving assembly efficiency. In other optional embodiments, the outer contour of the split member 351 may also contact and mate with the inner wall of the mounting cavity 350, thereby reducing the difficulty of aligning the through-hole 353 and the logo 352.
