摘要

The invention relates to a lighter, especially a gas lighter, with a top part, an ignition unit, a preferably regulatable fuel valve and a fuel container having a closing cap. The fuel container is connected to the top part via a manually actuable coupling device (8). The closing cap (6) comprises a mechanically actuable valve arrangement (7) which is actuated when a coupling takes effect between the top part (2) and closing cap (6) or fuel container (3), with the result that a flow connection is made between the fuel container (3) and the top part (2) or ignition unit (9).
