Refillable gas lighter

Abstract

A refillable gas lighter comprises a rear case, a front case and a barrel. The lighter is provided with a physical phenomenon of piezo-electric effect to generate the electric spark. Inside the rear case, the pusher is pressed down to the gas tank with the pusher having a plurality of conducting strips that acts as an electrical conductor connected to the gas tank. A copper wire carrying negative charge is connected with a bridge plate that passes through the conductive hose to achieve fuel distribution and electric conduction. The conductive hose transfers the igniting gas from the gas tank to the spark plug, where the ignition initiates the flame. The housing assembly includes a rear case with a rear case neck, a front case with a front case neck, and a barrel. The housing assembly is further locked together by means of a barrel sleeve where the barrel has a flame opening to ignite.
