How Piezoelectric Kitchen Gas Lighter Works?

Even though several breakthroughs in Chemistry were accomplished by them, the Curie's are known to most of the world for their progressive work on radioactivity. However, it is astonishing to realize that one of their discoveries has given one of the most well-known accessories any kitchen has. Not connected with radioactivity, this is the Kitchen Gas Lighter.

A piezoelectric crystal is the core of the gas igniter. At the point when a strong force is applied to it through a spring-loaded hammer, it delivers an electric spark. Certain dielectric materials have an internal crystalline structure which when exposed to mechanical pressure creates an electric field as well as the other way around. The level of the electric field produced is directly corresponding to the greatness of power applied. These materials are named piezoelectric crystals and this principle is named piezoelectricity.

Working Principle of Piezoelectric Kitchen Gas Lighter

The press button acts like a linear actuator. In the ordinary state, the outer spring reset against the interior wall present all over the periphery of the principal sweep. When we begin pressing the press button, it presses the hammer and spring gathering to move in the telescopic-shaped plastic casing. Since the external spring is hindered by the interior wall, it begins getting loaded. This power is utilized to send the press button back to its generally expected state.

The metal bar alongside the innerspring continues to move in the plastic structure till the hammer encounters the second internal wall which blocks it to some degree.

The movement of the hammer isn't straight, and it is held at the subsequent span change point. As we keep pressing the push button and since the hammer is obstructed from moving further in, the innerspring gets loaded. At one point the spring force is sufficient to beat the inner wall power and powers the hammer to move further in and hit the impact pad with a colossal power of the innerspring. The moment the effect is made the internal spring pulls the metal rod back to its not unexpected position and the external spring thus pulls the push button back to its generally expected state. Thus, the total gathering has returned to its generally expected state.

This mechanical power produced by pressing the hammer assembly makes the crystal create voltage which is conveyed by the terminals at the start head to create a flash. This whole cycle gets finished in a little while and the energy produced by the thumb is sufficiently able to make a 7kV voltage spark that lights the air-gas blend close to the burner.
