Claim Text:
1. An indirect shot device for driving securing elements into a support material, comprising a housing, wherein a securing element driving plunger is slidably mounted forwards under the action of the combustion of a propulsive charge by the control of actuating means in the device and upon which a buffer guide is mounted sliding backward by abutting the device against the support material to locate the device in a controlling position for the actuating means, the device characterized by the fact that it comprises safety means arranged to avoid by gravity the control of the actuating means when the spatial position of the device is inappropriate, wherein the safety means are arranged to avoid the sliding towards the back of the buffer guide and thus the control of the actuating means, and wherein the safety means comprise a casing, being integral with the housing, a drawer, being integral with the buffer guide and arranged to slide backwards in the casing, and a ball joint arranged in a second housing of the casing, with a leg engaged inside the drawer and pivotally mounted in the drawer under the action of its weight to prevent, in an inappropriate spatial position of the device, the sliding of the drawer inside the casing and thus the sliding of the buffer guide backwards.
