Fine Art Print : Cigarette lighter, simulated X-ray
Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Cigarette lighter, simulated X-ray
Cigarette lighter. Simulated X-ray of a cigarette lighter. The hinged lid of the lighter is slightly open. The main body of the lighter contains a canister of lighter fuel. A wick draws the fluid up the nozzle (centre), where it vaporizes. The gas is ignited by a spark created by rubbing the wheel (centre right) on a flint. The protective grille around the nozzle helps the lighter to stay alight even in windy conditions

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a simulated X-ray of a cigarette lighter, revealing the intricate mechanics behind this familiar object. The hinged lid of the lighter is partially open, offering a glimpse into its inner workings. At the heart of the main body lies a canister filled with lighter fuel, while a wick draws up the fluid towards the nozzle at its center. Once there, it vaporizes and awaits ignition. The lighting mechanism is ingeniously designed; by rubbing the wheel on a flint located at the center-right, a spark is created to ignite the gas-filled vapor. This clever process ensures that even in windy conditions, thanks to its protective grille around the nozzle, this trusty companion stays alight. In this monochrome computer artwork radiograph, we witness both technology and chemistry coming together seamlessly to produce fire through controlled combustion. It serves as an intriguing reminder that within seemingly ordinary items like cigarette lighters lie complex systems waiting to be explored. Science Photo Library presents us with yet another stunning illustration capturing everyday objects from unique perspectives. This particular image provides insight into an item many may take for granted – shedding light on its inner workings and igniting curiosity about how such common items function in our daily lives.
