Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tacker according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Eintreibowski are known with various drives, including devices operated with external compressed air, operated with a fuel gas devices or devices with a mechanical spring accumulator.
  • a heating element in the sense of the invention means any component by means of which a quantity of heat can be introduced into the drive gas in a defined, preferably controllable manner.
  • the heat energy can be converted from originally stored chemically or physically stored energy, where basically all
  • Memory forms come into consideration. For example, besides electric heating elements, combustion processes, catalytic exothermic reactions or the like as a heat source are also possible.
  • each retractable nail, bolt, staple, pin or a screw is understood.
  • the propellant gas in preferred embodiments is air, in particular ambient air. But it can also be gases such as air, nitrogen or carbon dioxide from a pressure reservoir or to reaction gases from a combustion. It is essential in the context of the invention that the drive gas is stored in the gas space under pressure until the driving operation is triggered. Therefore, after loading the gas space, a temperature of the drive gas is usually present, which is above an ambient temperature and is therefore exposed to a dissipative energy loss.
  • the drive gas is conveyed by means of a preferably integrated in the housing compressor in the gas space.
  • the compressor preferably comprises an electric drive, wherein the electric drive is particularly preferably driven by an accumulator as an energy source.
  • the compressor comprises the piston, so that the drive gas through a
  • Movement of the piston is compressed to the gas space.
  • a drive of the compressor is heat-conducting connected to the gas space, so that waste heat of the drive is used to reduce the cooling and the associated decrease in pressure in the gas space.
  • the heat-conducting connection is realized by a flow passage through which a medium, for example Cooling air flows from the drive to the gas space.
  • the drive is arranged in or on the gas space.
  • the drive device comprises an ignition element which is provided for igniting the drive gas and is preferably arranged in the gas space.
  • the gas space is then a combustion chamber.
  • the gas space is thermally conductively connected to an exhaust gas channel for exhaust gas formed during the combustion of the drive gas, so that exhaust gas heat is used to reduce the cooling and the associated drop in pressure in the gas space. This makes it possible to save heating energy for the heating element.
  • a wall of the gas space can be flowed through with the exhaust gas, for example as part of the exhaust gas duct.
  • the heating element is designed as an electrical heating element. This may be, for example, a simple heating wire, which is arranged within the gas space and is in contact with the drive gas.
  • the heating element can also be designed as a PTC heating element.
  • PTC positive temperature coefficient
  • the heating element may comprise a heat accumulator in order to enable a heat flow into the drive gas even when the energy supply is switched off.
  • the heating element can be controlled by means of a control circuit in dependence on a measured temperature or another operating parameter.
  • Operating parameters may be, for example, a time difference since one
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic sectional view of a driving device according to the invention.
  • the drive-in device according to the invention from FIG. 1 comprises a hand-guided housing 1, in which a power transmission element 2 with a drive device 3 is accommodated.
  • the drive device comprises a gas space 7, which can be filled by means of a compressor 9 with a drive gas at a defined pressure.
  • the gas space is pressurized by the
  • Energy transfer element is moved with the gas space closed to the gas space, so that the compressor includes the energy transfer element.
  • the energy transmission element 2 comprises a drive element 2a in the form of a substantially cylindrical plunger. Fasteners are received in a magazine 5. By a feed mechanism (not shown), a fastener is in each case transported into a chamber, from where it is accelerated by the action of the drive member 2a and driven through a mouth part into a workpiece (not shown).
  • the driving member 2 a is connected to a piston 2 b of the power transmission element 2, wherein the piston 2 b is guided in a cylinder 6.
  • the gas space 7 is with a drive gas, in this case compressed air, under a
  • the gas space 7 is enclosed by a rigid wall portion, which also includes a pressure-side part of the cylinder 6, and the movable piston 2b as a variable wall portion.
  • a heating element 8 is arranged, by means of which heat energy can be transmitted to the drive gas.
  • the heating element 8 is designed schematically as a simple electrical heating coil of a heating wire. The heating wire is located in a central region of the gas space in order to achieve the fastest and most uniform possible
  • the compressor 9 is powered by an electric drive, for example a rotating one
  • the Power source of the electric drive is provided on the housing 1
  • the device can be triggered if necessary, which is done by an electromechanical release of the previously held energy transfer element 2. After its release, the piston 2b is accelerated forward by the applied pressure.
  • the heating element 8 is activated.
  • the heating element is heated by the electrical energy of the accumulator 4.
  • the control of the heating element 4 can be carried out in particular via a central control circuit of the driving device.
  • the energy transmission element 2 After driving in the fastening means, the energy transmission element 2 is reset by a return spring (not shown) in the starting position and locked. Finally, the refilling of the gas space 7 takes place through the compressor 9.

Abstract

Dispositif d'enfoncement comportant un boîtier (1) à mains qui reçoit un élément de transmission d'énergie (2) destiné à transmettre de l'énergie à un élément de fixation à enfoncer, et un dispositif d'entraînement (3) destiné à déplacer l'élément de transmission d'énergie (2). Le dispositif d'entraînement (3) comporte un accumulateur d'énergie doté d'une chambre de gaz qui peut être remplie d'un gaz propulseur sous une surpression définie, la surpression se trouvant dans la chambre de gaz (7) sous forme d'énergie d'entraînement accumulée avant le déclenchement d'un processus d'enfoncement, et un piston (2b) de l'élément de transmission d'énergie (2) formant une section de paroi variable de la chambre de gaz (7). Selon l'invention, un élément chauffant (8) permet de transmettre de l'énergie thermique au gaz propulseur renfermé dans la chambre de gaz (7).
