ABSTRACT:
A safety stoppage or disconnection apparatus for mechanically moved tools, particularly automatic welding guns, having a swashplate and an assembly casing, between which are arranged one or more spring elements and a switch operated by the relative movement between the swashplate and assembly casing. It is necessary with such safety apparatuses to prevent other adverse rotary movement between the swashplate and assembly casing. This is brought about by two facing bolts, whose heads projecting beyond the outer wall of the swashplate are guided in slots, which run in the inner wall of the assembly casing in the intended swashplate movement direction. The bolts are spring-loaded and preferably spherical. The bolts with the spherical heads on the one hand reliably prevent a rotary movement between the swashplate and assembly casing and on the other hand do not prevent the relative movement and a slowing down movement necessary for the operation of the switch, even if the swashplate is tilted and tipped by the relatively large moment exerted by the tool against the swashplate. Following tool relief, the swashplate returns in an unimpeded manner to its initial position.
