Die Aufgabe ist bei einem handgeführten Arbeitsgerät zum Eintreiben von Befestigungselementen in einen Untergrund, mit einer Auslöseeinrichtung, deren Betätigung einen Eintreibvorgang auslöst und die in Abhängigkeit von mindestens einem Gerätezustand blockierbar ist, dadurch gelöst, dass der Auslöseeinrichtung eine elektrisch betätigbare, mechanische Sperreinrichtung zugeordnet ist, mit der das Betätigen der Auslöseeinrichtung blockiert oder freigegeben werden kann. Die Auslöseeinrichtung umfasst vorzugsweise einen Auslöseschalter, der auch als Trigger bezeichnet wird. Die Auslöseeinrichtung ist bevorzugt als Hubmagnet, besonders bevorzugt als Elektromagnet ausgeführt und über eine geräteinterne Steuerung elektrisch betätigbar. Durch den Hubmagneten kann die Auslöseeinrichtung schnell und sicher blockiert oder freigegeben werden. Das handgeführte Arbeitsgerät ist vorzugsweise als Bolzensetzgerät ausgeführt. Das Bolzensetzgerät kann elektrisch, pneumatisch oder mit einem Brennstoff betrieben werden. Bei der elektrischen Ausführung umfasst das Bolzensetzgerät vorteilhaft eine Federeinrichtung, die als Zwischenspeicher dient, um in dem Bolzensetzgerät aus einem elektrischen Antrieb stammende Energie zu speichern, die bei einem Setzvorgang schlagartig abgegeben werden kann. Das Übertragungselement weist eine Ausnehmung auf, deren Position relativ zu der Auslöseeinrichtung durch die Sperreinrichtung veränderbar ist. Dadurch kann die Auslöseeinrichtung auf einfache Art und Weise blockiert oder freigegeben werden. Die Ausnehmung ist in einer Aufnahmestellung so zu der Auslöseeinrichtung positioniert, dass ein Aktor der Auslöseeinrichtung bei deren Betätigung in die Ausnehmung eingreift, ohne eine Bewegung des Übertragungselements auszulösen. Das Übertragungselement kann vorteilhaft in seine Aufnahmestellung vorgespannt sein. Dadurch kann auf einfache Art und Weise eine Fail-Safe-Lösung dargestellt werden. Die Ausnehmung ist in einer Auslösestellung so zu der Auslöseeinrichtung positioniert, dass der Aktor der Auslöseeinrichtung bei deren Betätigung eine Bewegung des Übertragungselements auslöst. In der Auslösestellung greift der Aktor der Auslöseeinrichtung nicht in die Ausnehmung an dem Übertragungselement ein.The task is in a hand-held implement for driving fasteners into a surface, with a release device, the actuation triggers a driving-in process and which can be blocked depending on at least one device state, in that the triggering device is assigned an electrically actuable, mechanical locking device with which the actuation of the triggering device can be blocked or released. The trigger device preferably comprises a trigger switch, which is also referred to as a trigger. The triggering device is preferably designed as a lifting magnet, particularly preferably as an electromagnet, and can be actuated electrically via a device-internal control. The release device can be blocked and released quickly and safely by the lifting magnet. The hand-held implement is preferably designed as a bolt-driving tool. The stud setting tool can be operated electrically, pneumatically or with a fuel. In the electrical version, the bolt-setting tool advantageously comprises a spring device, which serves as an intermediate store in order to store energy in the bolt-setting tool from an electric drive, which energy can be released suddenly during a setting process. The transmission element has a recess, the position of which can be changed relative to the triggering device by the locking device. As a result, the triggering device can be blocked or released in a simple manner. The recess is positioned in a receiving position in relation to the triggering device such that an actuator of the triggering device engages in the recess when it is actuated without triggering a movement of the transmission element. The transmission element can advantageously be biased into its receiving position. This enables a fail-safe solution to be displayed in a simple manner. In a release position, the recess is positioned in relation to the release device such that the actuator of the release device triggers a movement of the transmission element when it is actuated. In the release position, the actuator of the release device does not engage in the recess on the transmission element.

Ausführungsbeispieleembodiments

In den Figuren 1 und 2 ist ein als Bolzensetzgerät ausgeführtes handgeführtes Arbeitsgerät 1 in zwei verschiedenen Zuständen dargestellt. Das Bolzensetzgerät 1 umfasst als Antriebselement eine Federeinrichtung 10 und wird daher auch als Federnagler bezeichnet. Die Federeinrichtung 10 wird durch einen Elektromotor gespannt, der eine Spindel 12 antreibt. Die Spindel 12 ist zusammen mit einer Spindelmutter 14 in einem Gehäuse 2 des Arbeitsgeräts 1 angeordnet.In the Figures 1 and 2 A hand-held implement 1 designed as a bolt-actuating device is shown in two different states. The bolt-actuating device 1 comprises a spring device 10 as the drive element and is therefore also referred to as a spring nailer. The spring device 10 is tensioned by an electric motor that drives a spindle 12. The spindle 12 is arranged together with a spindle nut 14 in a housing 2 of the implement 1.

Das Gehäuse 2 umfasst ein Magazin für Befestigungselemente 3, insbesondere Bolzen, von denen in dem Magazin ein Vorrat enthalten ist. Das Bolzensetzgerät 1 umfasst des Weiteren einen Griff 4, der mit der Hand des Benutzers umgriffen werden kann. Die Befestigungselemente 3 treten an einem Bolzensetzende 5 aus dem Arbeitsgerät 1 aus und werden mit Hilfe eines Stößels 8 in einen Untergrund 6 eingetrieben.The housing 2 comprises a magazine for fastening elements 3, in particular bolts, of which a store is contained in the magazine. The bolt gun 1 further comprises a handle 4 which can be gripped by the user's hand. The fastening elements 3 emerge from the implement 1 at a bolt-setting end 5 and are driven into a base 6 with the aid of a plunger 8.

Am Bolzensetzende 5 des Arbeitsgeräts 1 ist ein Anpressfühler 16 angeordnet. Der Anpressfühler 16 detektiert, ob das Arbeitsgerät 1 im Einsatz von einem Anwender an den Untergrund 6 angepresst wird. Der Anpressfühler 16 ist steuerungsmäßig mit einer Steuerung 18 verbunden. Die Steuerung 18 wiederum ist steuerungsmäßig mit einer Auslöseeinrichtung 20 des Arbeitsgeräts 1 verbunden, wobei die Steuerung elektronisch erfolgt. Bei einem nicht gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel erfolgt die Steuerung mechanisch. Die Auslöseeinrichtung 20 umfasst einen Auslöseschalter 22, der auch als Trigger bezeichnet wird.A pressure sensor 16 is arranged on the bolt-setting end 5 of the implement 1. The pressure sensor 16 detects whether the implement 1 is pressed against the surface 6 by a user in use. The pressure sensor 16 is connected in terms of control to a controller 18. The controller 18 in turn is connected in terms of control to a triggering device 20 of the implement 1, the control being carried out electronically. In an embodiment not shown, the control is carried out mechanically. The trigger device 20 comprises a trigger switch 22, which is also referred to as a trigger.

Der Auslöseschalter 22 kann, wie man in Figur 1 sieht, durch einen als Elektromagneten ausgebildeten Hubmagneten 24 blockiert werden.

In Figur 2 befindet sich der Stößel 25 des Hubmagneten 24 in seiner Freigabestellung, in welcher der Auslöseschalter 22 freigegeben ist. Ein nicht dargestelltes Hubglied des Stößels 25 taucht dabei vollständig in den Hubmagneten 24 ein.The trigger switch 22 can, as in Figure 1 sees are blocked by a lifting magnet 24 designed as an electromagnet. The lifting magnet 24 has a plunger 25 which acts directly on the trigger switch 22.

In Figure 2 is the plunger 25 of the solenoid 24 in its release position, in which the trigger switch 22 is released. A lifting member, not shown, of the plunger 25 is completely immersed in the lifting magnet 24.

Der Hubmagnet 24 wird über die Steuerung 18 in Abhängigkeit von einem Anpresssignal des Anpressfühlers 16 freigegeben oder blockiert. Anstelle des Anpresssignals des Anpressfühlers 16 können aber auch andere geräteinterne, insbesondere elektrische oder mechanische Signale verwendet werden, um den Magneten 24 anzusteuern.The lifting magnet 24 is released or blocked via the controller 18 as a function of a contact signal from the contact sensor 16. Instead of the pressure signal of the pressure sensor 16, other device-internal, in particular electrical or mechanical, signals can also be used to control the magnet 24.

Durch einen Doppelpfeil 36 ist angedeutet, dass der Aktor 35 bei einer Betätigung der Auslöseeinrichtung 20 translatorisch, in Figur 3 nach rechts und links, bewegbar ist.The recess 34 is assigned an actuator 35, which is formed on the trigger switch 22. A double arrow 36 indicates that the actuator 35 translates when the triggering device 20 is actuated Figure 3 to the right and left, is movable.

In Figur 3 befindet sich das Übertragungselement 30 in seiner Aufnahmestellung. In der Aufnahmestellung ist die Ausnehmung 34 des Hebels 32 relativ zu dem Aktor 35 der Auslöseeinrichtung 20 so positioniert, dass der Aktor 35 bei einer Betätigung des Auslöseschalters 22 in die Ausnehmung 34 hinein bewegt wird. Der Auslöseschalter 22 bewegt sich sozusagen ins Leere. Durch den Auslöseschalter 22 wird dabei keine Bewegung des Hebels 32 initiiert.In Figure 3 the transmission element 30 is in its receiving position. In the receiving position, the recess 34 of the lever 32 is positioned relative to the actuator 35 of the triggering device 20 such that the actuator 35 is moved into the recess 34 when the trigger switch 22 is actuated. The trigger switch 22 moves into space, so to speak. No movement of the lever 32 is initiated by the trigger switch 22.

Durch einen Doppelpfeil 41 ist angedeutet, dass der Hebel 32 durch den Hubmagneten 40 translatorisch in Längsrichtung des Hebels 32 nach oben oder nach unten bewegbar ist. Wenn der Hebel 32 in Figur 3 nach oben oder nach unten bewegt wird, dann nimmt der Hebel 32 eine Auslösestellung ein, in welcher eine Betätigung des Auslöseschalters 22 eine Bewegung des Hebels 32 initiiert. Diese Bewegung des Hebels 32 wird über das Kopplungselement 44 auf den Eintreibmechanismus des Arbeitsgeräts 1 übertragen, wie durch einen Doppelpfeil 45 angedeutet ist.A double arrow 41 indicates that the lever 32 can be moved upward or downward in translation in the longitudinal direction of the lever 32 by the lifting magnet 40. If the lever 32 in Figure 3 is moved up or down, then the lever 32 assumes a trigger position in which actuation of the trigger switch 22 initiates a movement of the lever 32. This movement of the lever 32 is transmitted via the coupling element 44 to the driving mechanism of the implement 1, as indicated by a double arrow 45.
