Lighter Or Body Therefor Patents (Class D27/141)
  • Patent number: 4880377
    Abstract: An upstanding charm is mounted on the top panel of a cigarette lighter, of the type wherein all working mechanical parts are completely contained within a simple unadorned box. The box has a flip top, which opens when the lighter is used, and thereafter closes to extinguish the flame. The invention is particularly directed to display, in an interesting manner, a charm mounted on the lighter while it is held in a hand during normal usage, when the flip top is both opened and closed. The invention also provides for an adornment of other types of lighters and for changing the charm to fit the style, circumstances, and mood of usage.
