An ignition operating mechanism for slide type lighters that is capable of preventing accidental ignition or ignition due to erroneous use or the like while maintaining good operability, wherein pivots (22a, 22a) for an operati ng cap 20 are made substantially circular in section and so sized as to form a vertically movable clearance as they are locked to a support section in the lighter main body, the pivots (22a, 22a) for the operating cap (20) are normally urged to be positioned in the upper region of the interior of a support section by the spring force of a return spring for a piezoelectric mechanism (4), the operating cap (20) is slid until a lever member (21) strikes the lighter main body (1) and no longer moves in the slide direction , from which state (a), the operating cap is pressed downward, whereby the pivots (22a, 22a) move downward (b) within the support section, whereupon pressing levers (23, 23) reach the operation stroke that overcomes the piezoelectric mechanism (4), producing a discharge voltage to enable ignitio n. |
