Abstract: A lighter includes a lighter body having a fuel reservoir with a fuel-releasing valve, and an assembly such as a piezoelectric system, an electric system or system having a friction wheel rotatable by a user to produce sparks directed to the fuel released by the valve. The friction wheel assembly is mounted on the lighter body such that at least part of the friction wheel is exposed to be handled and rotated by the user. A valve actuator is depressible to actuate the valve and release the fuel. A protective element is mounted on the lighter body and consists of multiple layers. The protective element has a thickness ranging from 25-200 ?m and includes an outer protective film formed by a plastic film coated with an aliphatic polyurethane layer having a thickness ranging from 10-75 containing between 30 and 100% solids, depending on the required degree of smoothness.

Abstract: A support or divider element between layers of objects displayed in a stack has two identical sheets, assembled facing in opposite directions. The top sheet of a divider element holds the bottoms of objects in a next upper layer. The bottom sheet of an identical element, facing in the opposite direction, holds the tops of the objects in the next lower layer. The oppositely facing sheets are snapped together by engaging protuberances and hollows. A space between edges of the assembled sheets can receive a printed or decorated band.

Abstract: Gas lighter having a safety mechanism. The lighter includes a lighter body housing a tank of liquefied gas under pressure. A valve allows passage of gas. A burner is connected to the valve. A push-button is disposed on the body and is adapted to be pressed by a user's finger. A lever is used for acting on the valve. The lever is adapted to cooperate with the push-button. A wheel is used for engaging a flint. The wheel includes at least one driver. A spring is arranged below the flint for biasing the flint against the wheel. An axle is used upon which the wheel is rotatably mounted. A mechanism is used for preventing the rotation of the wheel. The mechanism is adapted to engage at least one tooth on the at least one driver so as to prevent the rotation of the wheel.
