Description




BACKGROUND OF THE PRESENT INVENTION




1. Field of Invention




The present invention relates to lighters, and more particularly to a torch lighter for cigar which is constructed to produce two or more strong diverging torches via a single fuel supplying source, wherein a torch stabilizing and firming technology is employed in the torch nozzle head to virtually produce a strong and stable gathering group of soaring torches, that is especially good at igniting cigars.




2. Description of Related Arts




A lighter is a common tool that replaces matches for igniting cigarettes and cigars. Generally, there are two types of lighter, namely the regular lighter that produces flat flame and the torch lighter that produces torch.




There are various types of regular lighter, including the disposable lighters as disclosed in the U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,547,370 and 5,096,414, the flat flame lighter as suggested in the U.S. Pat. No. 5,711,662, and the piezoelectric lighter as disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,786,248 and 6,267,582. Such regular lighter is capable of generating a flat flame which is merely a single tongue of flame. Due to the soft and weak nature of the flat flame, most of such flat flame lighters are good at igniting cigarettes but find difficulty when igniting a cigar.




Since the cigar has a bigger diameter and the cigar tobacco is dryer and harder, the torch lighter that can produce a stronger and hotter torch is generally used to ignite the cigars. U.S. Pat. No. 3,850,571 discloses a typical torch lighter that is structured to generate a single torch. Although the torch is stronger and hotter than the flat flame, its ignition area is relatively small and limited.




In order to increase the igniting area of the torch lighter, how to produce two or more torches simultaneously will be an effective solution. Since it is too costly and not practical to provide two or more torch nozzles and fuel valve assemblies in the limited interior space of the housing of the torch lighter, it is not available in market.




Japanese patent JP10-238773 suggests an alterative structure improved from the burner structure such as U.S. Pat. No. 1,884,764 to provide a flame nozzle having two or more holes to generate more than one tongues of flame. However, such multiple tongues of flame will immediate mix to form a bigger tongue of mix flame that may be larger in size than the flat flame. Such mix flame is still too soft and weak that fails to generate heat as hot as the torch does, especially at the tip portion of the flame, i.e. the main portion of the flat flame for ignition.




SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION




A main objective of the present invention is to provide a torch lighter that is constructed to produce two or more strong diverging torches via a single fuel supplying source, wherein a torch stabilizing and firming technology is employed in the torch nozzle head to virtually produce a strong and stable gathering group of soaring torches, that is especially good at igniting cigars.




Another objective of the present invention is to provide a torch lighter that can produce a group of diverging torches for providing more heat at higher temperature that makes the ignition operation prompt and easy.




Another objective of the present invention is to provide a torch lighter that is windproof by producing two or more strong and stable soaring torches.




Another objective of the present invention is to provide a torch lighter which employs a torch stabilizing and firming arrangement to prevent the strong soaring torches from directly bursting into the air by providing a plurality of root flames which are united and mixed with a root portion of the soaring torches to form a stable environment root flame so as to hold the torches from being burst away by the escaping high-pressured fuel and thus gather to form a strong and stable group of torches.




Another objective of the present invention is to provide a torch lighter which virtually produces two or more flows of fuel to generate two or more torches by providing a diversion joint edge between adjacent roots of every two elongated nozzle ducts.




In order to accomplish the above objectives, the present invention provides a torch lighter, comprising:




a casing having a liquefied fuel storage and a fuel valve which is actuated by a fuel lever pivotally mounted in the casing for releasing fuel therefrom;




an ignition unit generating sparks directed toward an ignition chamber; and




a fuel nozzle assembly provided for vaporizing the fuel released therefrom to a high-pressured gaseous fuel to emit to the ignition chamber, wherein the vaporizer assembly comprises:




a tubular nozzle body having a root opening at one end thereof, an emitting opening at another end thereof, at least an air inlet provided adjacent to the root opening, and an elongated mixing chamber axially extended between the air inlet to the emitting opening thereof, wherein a flow of air is capable of inletting into the mixing chamber through the air inlet;




a torch nozzle, which is coaxially connected between the root end of the nozzle body and the fuel valve, having a micro nozzle pore having a diameter as small as 0.05 mm to 0.12 mm, wherein the fuel released from the fuel valve is vaporized into a strong, pressurized gaseous fuel jetting into the mix chamber, wherein the jetting gaseous fuel provides a suction force to absorb the air into the mix chamber in such a manner that the mix chamber has a predetermined length and size arranged for the air and the gaseous fuel being evenly mixed to form a mixture gas at the emitting end of the nozzle body;




a combustion housing mounted at the emitting end of the nozzle body to define the ignition chamber therein; and




a torch head, which is provided at the emitting end of the nozzle body and supported within the combustion housing, having:




a root chamber having a size larger than the size of the emitting end of the nozzle body to form a gas stabilizing reservoir to ensure a collective and stable flow of the mixture gas,




two or more elongated nozzle ducts, each having an ignition end and a root end extended to a ceiling of the root chamber, wherein the root ends of the two nozzle ducts are adjacently positioned to define a diversion joint edge therebetween while the two ignition ends of the two nozzle ducts are diverged and extended in the ignition chamber to define a torch gap therebetween, wherein the mixture gas ejected from the two ignition ends is ignited in the ignition chamber to form two torches soaring away from the two ignition ends of the two nozzle ducts, and




means for forming a stable environment root flame around roots of the torches so as to hold the torches from being burst away by the escaping high-pressured mixture gas and thus gather to form a strong and stable group of torches.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT




Referring to

FIGS. 1 and 2

, a torch lighter according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is illustrated, which comprises a casing


1


, an ignition unit


3


and fuel nozzle assembly


4


.




The casing


1


has a liquefied fuel storage


21


and a fuel valve


22


which is actuated by a fuel lever


5


pivotally mounted in the casing


1


for releasing fuel therefrom. The ignition unit


3


is arranged to generate sparks directed toward an ignition chamber


440


.




The fuel nozzle assembly


4


is provided for vaporizing the fuel released from the fuel valve


22


to a high-pressured gaseous fuel to emit to the ignition chamber


440


, wherein the vaporizer assembly comprises a tubular nozzle body


40


, a torch nozzle


41


, a torch head


43


and a combustion housing


44


.




The tubular nozzle body


40


comprises a throat conduit


422


having a root opening


401


at a bottom end thereof, an emitting opening


402


at a top end thereof and at least an air inlet


421


provided thereon adjacent to the root opening


401


of the throat conduit


422


so as to define an elongated mixing chamber


42


extended between the air inlet


421


to the emitting opening


402


, wherein a flow of air is capable of inletting into the mixing chamber


42


through the air inlet


421


.




The torch nozzle


41


is coaxially connected between the root opening


401


of the nozzle body


40


and the fuel valve


22


via a connecting conduit


24


, wherein the torch nozzle


41


has a micro nozzle pore


410


having a diameter as small as 0.05 mm to 0.12 mm, preferable 0.08 mm, wherein the fuel released from the fuel valve


22


is vaporized into a strong, pressurized gaseous fuel jetting into the mix chamber


42


. The torch nozzle


41


further comprises a mesh filter


411


provided below the nozzle pore


410


to prevent any residual particles of the fuel from entering the nozzle body


40


.




Accordingly, the jetting gaseous fuel provides a suction force to absorb the air into the mix chamber


42


in such a manner that the mix chamber


42


has a predetermined length and size arranged for the air and the gaseous fuel being evenly mixed to form a mixture gas at the emitting opening


402


of the nozzle body


40


. Preferably, the throat conduit


422


, i.e. the mix chamber


42


is an elongated straight hole having a diameter of 1 mm to 2.5 mm. Moreover, the throat conduit


422


, the mix chamber


42


, and the nozzle pore


410


are coaxially aligned while the air inlet


421


is a hole transversely formed on the root opening


401


of the throat conduit


422


that preferably has a diameter slightly larger than a diameter of the mix chamber


42


.




It is worth to mention that, generally speaking, if the nozzle pore


410


has diameter smaller than 0.05 mm, it is very easily be blocked by dusts and particles. If the nozzle pore


410


has a diameter larger than 0.12 mm, the jetting power of the gaseous fuel is reduced for failing to produce strong torch. Similarly, if the diameter of the mix chamber


42


is smaller than 1 mm, it fails to provide any stabilizing and collecting effects for the passing gaseous fuel. If the diameter of the mix chamber


42


is larger than 2.5 mm, the jetting power of the passing gaseous fuel from nozzle pore


410


is eliminated.




By passing through the throat conduit


422


, the gaseous fuel jetted from nozzle pore


410


and the inletting air from the air inlet


421


not only evenly mix to form the mixture gas but also concentrate and stabilize the flowing dynamic of the mixture gas before outputting through the emitting opening


402


of the mix chamber


42


.




The combustion housing


44


is a ring shaped body having a surrounding wall defining the ignition chamber


440


therein. The emitting opening


402


of the torch nozzle


40


is extended to a bottom end of the combustion housing


44


. According to the preferred embodiment, the ignition unit


3


is embodied as a piezoelectric unit having a piezoelectric tip


31


extended and secured to the surrounding wall of combustion housing


44


adapted to generate sparks towards the ignition chamber


440


.




The torch head


43


is coaxially connected to the emitting opening


402


of the nozzle body


40


and supported within the combustion housing


44


in such a manner that the ignition chamber


440


is formed surrounding the torch head


43


.




Preferably, a top end of the torch head


43


is lower than the top end of the combustion housing


44


and the outer diameter of the torch head


43


must be smaller than an inner diameter of the combustion housing


44


, so that ignition chamber


440


is formed above and around the torch head


43


.




The torch head


43


has a root chamber


45


having a size larger than the size of the emitting opening


402


of the nozzle body


40


to form a gas stabilizing reservoir to ensure a collective and stable flow of the mixture gas.




The torch head


43


further has two elongated nozzle ducts


431


, each having an ignition end and a root end extended to a ceiling of the root chamber


45


, wherein the root ends of the two nozzle ducts


431


are adjacently positioned to define a diversion joint edge


46


therebetween while the two ignition ends of the two nozzle ducts


431


are diverged and extended in the ignition chamber


440


to define a torch gap G therebetween.




According to the preferred embodiment, the two nozzle ducts


431


is formed in an upper solid portion of the torch head


43


by drilling two slant holes from a bottom end to a top end thereof. In other words, the two nozzle ducts


431


extended upwardly and outwardly to form a “V” shape arrangement. It is worth to mention that if the two root ends of the two nozzle ducts


431


are spaced apart more than 1.5 mm, an eddy flow may occur between the two root ends of the two nozzle ducts


431


in the root chamber


45


. It would reduce the flowing speed of the mixture gas before entering the nozzle ducts


431


and thus reduce the bursting power of the torches T


1


, T


2


to be ignited at the ignition ends of the nozzle ducts


431


. In other words, the diversion joint edge


46


is preferred to have a width from zero to 1.5 mm, i.e. a distance between the two root ends of the two nozzle ducts


431


, so as to evenly and smoothly diverge the mixture gas flowing through the root chamber


45


into the two nozzle ducts


431


without substantially reducing flowing speed.




In view of above, beams of mixture gas can be burst out through the two ignition ends of the nozzle ducts


431


but the sparks from the piezoelectric tip


31


substantially cannot ignite such ejecting beams of mixture gas. It is because the beams of mixture gas are burst in very high speed that it escapes into the air before the sparks ignite it.




Accordingly, the torch head


43


further comprises means for forming a stable environment root flame T


3


around the torch head


43


and the emitting ends of the nozzle ducts


431


adapted for igniting the beams of mixture gas ejected from the nozzle ducts


431


to form two torches T


1


, T


2


soaring away from the ignition ends of the nozzle ducts


431


and holding firm to the soaring torches T


1


, T


2


, as shown in FIG.


2


. The means comprises a torch stabilizing arrangement


430


adapted to prevent the strong torches T


1


, T


2


from directly bursting into the air by providing a plurality of root flames which are united and mixed with a root portion of the soaring torches to form the stable environment root flame T


3


so as to hold the torches T


1


, T


2


from being burst away by the escaping high-pressured fuel and thus gather to form a strong and stable group of torches with blue hot tip portions for better ignition effect.




According to the preferred embodiment, the diameter of each of the nozzle ducts is preferred to be 0.6 mm to 1.3 mm in order to produce strong and long torches. Moreover, the best effect will be achieved when the diversion joint edge


46


is sized as 0.8 mm for producing two or more strong, powerful and firm diverging soaring torches.




According to the preferred embodiment as shown in

FIG. 2

, the torch stabilizing arrangement


430


is embodied to have a plurality of diversion emitting openings


4311


formed around the torch head


43


and a conical ceiling surface


433


extended between the root ends of the nozzle ducts


413


and the diversion emitting openings


4311


, wherein each of the diversion emitting openings


4311


is a through hole formed transversely at a top portion of the surrounding wall of the root chamber


45


. The diversion emitting openings


4311


are preferred to be positioned right below the two root ends of the nozzle ducts


431


and evenly spaced apart at the same level.




Accordingly, since the diversion emitting openings


4311


are radially formed around the torch head


43


, the main portion of the upwardly jetting mixture gas flown into the root chamber


45


will be ejected through the two nozzle ducts


431


and merely a relatively small portion of the mixture gas will be diverged to emit through the diversion emitting openings


4311


and fill up the ignition chamber


440


. During the ignition operation of the torch lighter of the present invention, the sparks generated from the piezoelectric tip


31


would first ignite the mixture gas emitted through the diversion emitting openings


4311


and filled in the ignition chamber


440


to form a plurality of root flames which are united and mixed to form the environment root flame T


3


surrounding the torch head


43


and the emitting ends of the nozzle ducts


431


. Then, the presence of the environment root flame T


3


would immediately ignite the mixture gas ejected from the two emitting ends of the two nozzle ducts


431


to produce the torches T


1


, T


2


. In fact, such a ring shaped environment root flame T


3


is a preferred area for ignition.




After igniting the torch lighter, the environment root flame T


3


not only holds firm to the strong torches T


1


, T


2


to form the strong and stable group of torches but also provide a continuous flame source within the combustion housing


44


. Practically, the torch lighter of the present invention is a windproof lighter that even though the torches T


1


, T


2


are blown out in a windy surrounding, the environment root flame T


3


that continuously burns inside the ignition chamber


440


will immediately ignite the ejecting mixture gas from the emitting ends of the nozzle ducts


431


to produce the torches T


1


, T


2


.




As shown in

FIG. 3

, a first alternative mode of the fuel ignition assembly


4


′ of the torch lighter according to the above preferred embodiment of the present invention is illustrated, wherein the fuel ignition assembly


4


is structurally identical to the above preferred embodiment except three nozzle ducts


431


are presented, wherein a vertical central nozzle duct


431


′ is additionally provided between the two slanted nozzle ducts


431


to produce another torch T


4


from an emitting end thereof. Moreover, two diversion joint edges


46


, each of which is made as thin as 1.5 mm or less, are formed between the central nozzle duct


431


′ and the two side nozzle ducts


431


. Due to the increased density of the torches, the group of torches T


1


, T


2


, T


4


becomes more concentrated, stronger and hotter. Therefore, when a user is lighting a cigar, it likes to have three torch lighters generating three torches to ignite the cigar simultaneously. It is apparent that it is easier to light up the cigar promptly without the need of continuously rotating the cigar while using a conventional single torch lighter.
