Abstract

A foldable ignition gun includes an ignition gun body and a hiding member, and the ignition gun body includes a gas storage tank, an igniting section, and an electric arc generator, and the gas storage tank has a gas outlet valve, and a switching section is disposed on a side of the ignition gun body, such that when the switching section is pushed, the gas outlet valve will be opened to discharge the gas in the gas storage tank and the electric arc generator will be triggered to produce electric arc in the igniting section and ignite the gas. The hiding member forms a containing space for accommodating the ignition gun body and hiding the switching section to prevent the switching section from being triggered accidentally and avoid unintentional ignitions.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A foldable ignition gun, comprising:

       2 . The ignition gun of  claim 1 , wherein said electric arc generator installed in said ignition gun body and proximate to an end of switching section comprises: 
 a starting end, coupled to said switching section;    a grounding end, coupled to said ignition gun body, and said ignition gun body being coupled to said igniting section, and said grounding end being electrically connected to said igniting section; and    a conducting wire, extended into said igniting section, such that when said switching section is pushed, said starting end will be triggered, and said electric arc generator will produce a high-voltage current to be sent into said igniting section through said conducting wire.    
   
   
       3 . The ignition gun of  claim 2 , wherein said gas outlet valve is installed at said gas storage tank facing another side of said ignition gun body, and said gas outlet valve includes a pipe, and an end of said pipe is coupled to said gas outlet valve, and another end of said pipe is extended into said igniting section.  
   
   
       4 . The ignition gun of  claim 3 , wherein said igniting section is disposed at another end of said ignition gun body, and said igniting section comprises: 
 an external pipe, having an end disposed at another end of said ignition gun body and another end extended to a distance in the direction opposite to said ignition gun body;    a nozzle, installed in said external pipe and an end of said nozzle being proximate to another end of said external pipe, and another end of said nozzle being coupled to another end of said pipe; and    a discharging pin, installed at another end of said external pipe and being proximate to an end of said nozzle and coupled to said conducting wire, such that when said conducting wire sends a high-voltage current to said discharging pin, said discharging pin will produce said electric arc.    
   
   
       5 . The ignition gun of  claim 4 , wherein said ignition gun body includes a rectangular sliding track disposed on a side of said ignition gun body, and an end of said rectangular sliding track is proximate to the pivotal connecting position of said ignition gun body and said hiding member, and another end of said rectangular sliding track is proximate to another end of said ignition gun body, and said switching section is disposed on said rectangular sliding track, and a side of said switching section is exposed from said ignition gun body, and another side of said switching section is extended into said ignition gun body.  
   
   
       6 . The ignition gun of  claim 5 , wherein said switching section comprises: 
 a first switch, disposed proximate to an end of said rectangular sliding track, and having a first latch member installed in said ignition gun body of said first switch, and said first latch member being contained in a sliding groove disposed between both sides of said rectangular sliding track, and said first latch member includes a pressing plate disposed proximate to an end of said rectangular sliding track, and said pressing plate precisely presses on said starting end; and    a second switch, disposed proximate to another end of said rectangular sliding track, and having a second latch member disposed at one side in said ignition gun body, and said second latch member can be contained in said sliding groove, and said second latch member includes a driving member disposed on a position facing a side of said ignition gun body, and an end of said driving member away from said second latch member is coupled to said gas outlet valve.    
   
   
       7 . The ignition gun of  claim 6 , wherein said first latch member comprises a clamping member disposed at an end facing said second latch member, and said clamping member includes a protruding member disposed at a free end of said claming member, such that when said switches are disposed adjacent to each other, the internal side of said clamping member can contain said second latch member, and said two protruding members are contained into a latch groove disposed at said second latch member and facing the opposite direction of an end of said first latch member, and when said switches are disposed away from each other, said two protruding members will be separated from said two latch grooves and slid to both sides of an end of said first latch member facing said second latch member, and said clamping member is spread to clamp said second latch member, and said two protruding members are accommodated into a containing groove disposed at both sides of said sliding groove.  
   
   
       8 . The ignition gun of  claim 1 , further comprising a pivotal connecting section disposed at the pivotal connecting position of said ignition gun body and said hiding member, and said pivotal connecting section comprises: 
 two first pivotal connecting holes, separately disposed on two corresponding sides at an end proximate to said hiding member;    two second pivotal connecting holes, separately disposed on two corresponding sides at an end proximate to said ignition gun body, and said two second pivotal connecting holes precisely face said two first pivotal connecting holes; and    two pivotal connecting axles, separately installed in said pivotal connecting holes on a side of said hiding member.    
   
   
       9 . The ignition gun of  claim 8 , wherein said pivotal connecting axle comprises: 
 a turning disc, installed at said pivotal connecting axle facing an end of said hiding member and accommodated in a groove around said pivotal connecting holes of said hiding member; and    a plurality of hooks, installed at another end of said pivotal connecting axle.    
   
   
       10 . The ignition gun of  claim 9 , further comprising a hook groove disposed at the connection position of the internal side of said ignition gun body and said two second pivotal connecting holes, and said hooks press against said hook groove.  
   
   
       11 . The ignition gun of  claim 10 , wherein said hiding member includes a fixing section disposed in said pivotal connecting hole, and said fixing section comprises: 
 a bushing, having a slot disposed at an end of said bushing, and said slot being coupled to said hook groove;    a press button, having a head section disposed at an end of said press button, and said head section being exposed from a penetrating hole on said pivotal connecting axle, and another end of said press button passes through another end of said bushing;    a resilient member, sheathed onto said press button, and an end of said resilient member presses said head section of said press button, and another end of said resilient member presses against the bottom of said slot; and    a fixing member, having an end disposed at another end of said press button and another end of said fixing member passing through said ignition gun body and including a notch, and said one opening disposed around said groove at said hiding member is extended out from said hiding member.
