Vaporization lighter

Abstract

A vaporization lighter device includes a heat source for producing a flame and directing the same in a horizontal direction. The heat source is perpendicularly aligned with a flame filter via a main body. The flame filter includes an elongated chamber having an open front end, an open second end, and an aperture along the central portion. A non-combustible filter material is positioned within the elongated chamber and spans the central aperture. Ambient air is drawn through the open first end, across the filter material where it absorbs heat, and leaves the second end as super-heated air.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A vaporization lighter device, comprising:
 a heat source having a main body and a first end that selectively produces a flame;   a flame filter that includes a non-combustible filter material; and   a main body that is in communication with each of the heat source and the flame filter, said main body positioning the flame filter adjacent to, and at a perpendicular angle with, the first end of the heat source, so as to receive the produced flame.   
     
     
         2 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the heat source includes a torch lighter that is configured to produce the flame in a horizontal orientation. 
     
     
         3 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the main body is constructed from a lightweight and non-heat conducting material. 
     
     
         4 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the heat source is removably secured within the main body. 
     
     
         5 . The device of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a removable cap that is configured to engage an upper portion of the main body and to encompass the flame filter.   
     
     
         6 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the flame filter comprises:
 an elongated hollow chamber having an open first end, a middle portion and an open second end; and   an aperture that is disposed along the middle portion of the elongated hollow chamber,   wherein the non-combustible filter material is disposed within the middle portion and spans an entirety of the aperture.   
     
     
         7 . The device of  claim 6 , wherein the main body further includes at least one filter holder that positions the aperture of the flame filter adjacent to the first end of the heat source. 
     
     
         8 . The device of  claim 6 , wherein the elongated hollow chamber is constructed from a heat absorbing material. 
     
     
         9 . The device of  claim 6 , wherein the non-combustible filter material includes, at least one of, silicon carbide, glass particles, and stacked porous discs. 
     
     
         10 . The device of  claim 1 , further comprising a stir stick that is removably connected to at least one of the main body and the cap.
