Safety Interlock for Angularly Misdirected Power Tool

[摘要] A proposed safety system would effect an inhibitory action whenever a power tool was aimed in a direction outside a prescribed range of allowable directions. The power tool could be a welding torch, blowtorch, laser, drill, or gun, for example. The inhibitory action could be turning off the supply of gas or electric power to the tool; in the case of a gun, the inhibitory action could be actuation of a mechanical trigger stop.
