Abstract:
1. A childproof safety disposable lighter, comprising: a casing having a liquefied gas cavity; a gas emitting valve having a nozzle upwardly extended above a ceiling of said casing and communicating with said liquefied gas cavity; an actuating lever for actuating said gas emitting valve to release gas within said liquefied gas cavity; a supporting frame comprising a U-shaped frame body having two supporting walls parallely extended on top of said casing that said nozzle is upwardly extended between said two supporting walls, said supporting frame further having a flint chamber provided between said two supporting walls; an ignition unit supported by said supporting frame, wherein said ignition unit comprises a flint having a bottom portion received in said flint chamber and being supported by a resilient element, and a striker wheel, having a circumferential coarse striking surface in contact with said flint, being rotatably mounted between said two supporting walls to generate sparks directed toward said nozzle of said gas emitting valve; and means for detachably mounting said supporting frame on said ceiling of said casing, wherein said mounting means has a mounting socket vertically and downwardly extended from said ceiling of said casing and comprises an elongated mounting arm downwardly extended from said supporting frame to slidably insert into said mounting socket so as to detachably mount said supporting frame on said ceiling of said casing, wherein said mounting arm has a guiding portion outwardly protruded therefrom to engage with said mounting socket to retain said supporting frame on said casing in position so as to prevent an unwanted rotational movement of said supporting frame with respect to said mounting socket through said mounting arm.
