COMBUSTIBLE FLUID CUTTING SAFETY SYSTEM

摘要

Embodiments of the present invention provide components and a system for providing a safer environment for using a cutting torch. The system includes a cutting torch and a control box. There is communication from the user to the control box to allow fluids to flow to the torch. The control box includes closed biased valve(s) such that if there is a condition where there is no instruction from the troch to the control box and/or power is lost, the valves will shut, preventing fluid from flowing into the torch.

主权项

1. An apparatus comprising a control box, the control box comprising:
a housing; a fuel valve, wherein the fuel valve is closed biased; an oxygen valve, wherein the oxygen valve is closed biased; a fuel inlet; an oxygen inlet; a fuel outlet; and an oxygen outlet; wherein the fuel valve is located in the housing and is configured to control flow between the fuel inlet and the fuel outlet; the oxygen valve is located in the housing and is configured to control flow into the oxygen inlet and out the oxygen outlet; and only material that has flowed through the oxygen valve can flow out the oxygen outlet.
