Plunge routers attach the motor to a spring-loaded base, so you can vary the depth while you rout and "plunge" safely into the middle of a piece of work.
Plunge routers, though a little top-heavy compared with fixed-base routers, are usually considered the safer type, because they keep the sharp cutting bit above the base when you're not actually routing.
Plunge routers have two spring-loaded columns that retract the cutting bit above the base, then let you plunge the bit down straight into the wood.
