Abstract
A safety lighter having a safety switch which prevents ignition of the lighter by automatically blocking the activation trigger from returning to a pre-ignition position and in turn prevents the piezoelectric actuator from returning to a pre-ignition position after the activation trigger has been urged to an ignition position. The safety switch has a slanted member having an engagement surface and a sliding surface, and a U-shaped sliding slot member having a resilient pane, a guide arm, a blocking surface, and a safety trigger. The safety switch allows ignition of the lighter only after the safety trigger is urged upward such that the activation trigger and the piezoelectric actuator return to their pre-ignition positions.
