Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for operating an electrically operated mobile riveting tool that can be held in the hand of a user, and such a riveting tool that has a housing in which a rivet setting mechanism is accommodated, with which rivet elements are set in workpieces to be connected Setting the rivet elements rivet mandrels are generated, which are conveyed through a conveyor channel into a collection container of the riveting tool.
  • a pneumatically operated riveting device shows the DE 81 19 147 U1 .
  • the riveting tool is used to set blind rivets in workpieces to be connected, and during the setting of the rivet parts of the rivet mandrel are torn off, and the collection container is used to collect the torn-off residual rivet mandrels.
  • a conveying channel is used to transfer the residual rivet mandrel from the front mouthpiece of the rivet setting mechanism into the collecting container arranged on the rear of the housing of the riveting tool, with a large number of residual rivet mandrels being guided through the conveying channel with riveting elements set one behind the other and being received in the collecting container.
  • the DE 10 2011 111 535 A1 discloses a further embodiment of a pneumatically operated riveting tool, and the rear of the riveting tool has a collecting container arranged on the housing, and through the rivet setting mechanism, starting from the mouthpiece, a conveying channel extends, which opens into the collecting container and through which the torn-off residual rivet mandrels can be moved.
  • the collection container can be opened via a closure on the back in order to empty it, whereby if the collection container is not emptied there is a risk that the collection container will open automatically, and injuries to the eyes, for example, may occur when riveting overhead.
  • the DE 78 19 059 U1 discloses a device for collecting and sucking off residual rivet mandrels that have been torn off from blind rivets for pneumatically operated blind riveting devices with a passage channel in the device head, which serves as a conveying channel for the residual rivet mandrels.
  • the free end of the collection container has a vacuum system operated by compressed air. This ensures that the collection and suction of the torn-off residual rivet mandrels works simply and reliably, with the compressed air being used to transport the residual rivet mandrels.
  • a vacuum system cannot be used in the case of electrically operated, in particular hand-held, riveting tools.
  • JP 2012-1210026 discloses a pneumatically operated riveting device in which the remaining rivet mandrels are registered and made known to the user.
  • the DE 10 2013 012 075 A1 discloses a pneumatically operated riveting device which is held by a robotic arm and in which the residual rivet mandrels are conveyed via a hose into a separately arranged collection container. In this case, too, the number of remaining rivet mandrels is determined.
  • From the DE 10 2013 221 789 A1 shows a cordless tool designed for manual operation for setting rivets, in which the remaining rivet mandrels are conveyed into a collecting container arranged coaxially with the tool head.

  • means are provided according to the invention with which the number of residual rivet mandrels in the collection container is determined. If the number of residual rivet mandrels in the collection container reaches a maximum permissible capacity of the collection container, the user is informed that the collection container needs to be emptied.
  • this information is not limited exclusively to a currently necessary emptying of the collecting container, the user can also be provided with information according to the invention when the collecting container must be emptied, for example how many rivets can still be set before the collecting container is full is.
  • these comprise a sensing counting device, with which the number of remaining rivet mandrels transported into the collecting container is counted and a sum of remaining rivet mandrels is formed, so that the user is provided with information about the sum formed as to whether the collecting container must be emptied. If the sum of the remaining rivet mandrels has not yet reached the maximum capacity of the collection container, the information is usually not provided to the user. Only when the collection container has to be emptied does the riveting tool inform the user that the collection container needs to be emptied.
  • the number of rivet setting processes that are still possible before the capacity of the collecting container is reached can also be output as information to the user, so that the user does not interrupt the setting of a row of rivets, for example, but does not start a new row before the collecting container is emptied.

  • the riveting tool also has a display device, and the control unit can be used to display on the display device the number of rivet setting processes after which the collection container must be emptied. This enables the user to decide whether or not a rivet setting sequence can still be performed before the bin is emptied.
  • the hand-held riveting tool particularly advantageously has a removal sensor, with which removal of the collecting container from the housing of the riveting tool is detected, and after removal of the collecting container from the housing, the count of residual rivet mandrels in the collecting container is zeroed.
  • the control unit can be coupled to the removal sensor, so that, for example, after a temporary removal of the collecting container, it is assumed that it has been emptied, and the control unit can start counting the remaining rivet mandrels transported into the collecting container from the beginning. In this case, it is necessary for the user to actually empty the collecting container when the collecting container is detached from the housing.
  • the riveting tool is designed to communicate with a mobile phone via a wireless connection, so that the riveting tool transmits information to the mobile phone, at least including the remaining number of riveting processes and/or the need to empty the collecting container, and via an app to the user is displayed on the mobile phone.

This ensures that the residual rivet mandrels do not escape through the conveying channel via the back of the housing of the riveting tool and cause an eye injury to the user, for example.
  • such removal sensors provided in a manner known per se can be used to zero the count of the number of residual rivet mandrels in the collecting container, if it is assumed that the collecting container will also be emptied during a temporary removal.
