Abstract: The present invention relates to a rivet setting device comprising a rivet setting means and a drive which actuates the rivet setting means, as well as a magazine-strip pulling means which comprises a roll in operative communication with the drive. According to the invention, in order to be able to operate rivet setting devices of such a type also in a pneumatic and/or hydraulic manner, the drive comprises a pneumatic and/or hydraulic linear drive including a piston-cylinder means and a gearing is provided for translating a linear movement of the piston-cylinder means into a rotational movement of the roll at least temporarily.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a rivet setting device having an electric drive motor, at lease one rivet setting means driven by drive motor, at least one rechargeable battery for supplying power to the drive motor, and a circuit for controlling the power supply to the drive motor.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a rivet setting device having an electric drive motor, a rivet setting means in a crank drive for driving the rivet setting means by the drive motor, wherein the crank drive assumes a rest position in one of its dead-center positions and, starting from its rest position, can be rotated by at least one complete rotation for performing a rivet setting operation of the rivet setting means. In order to simplify the construction of such a rivet setting device, the drive motor, the crank drive and the rivet setting means are in permanent operative communication according to the invention and a control means is provided for deactivating the drive motor when the crank drive is in its rest position after the rivet setting operation has been carried out.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a riveting apparatus having a power supply unit (20), which is replaceable or exchangeable, attached to the riveting apparatus, said power supply unit having a preferably rechargeable battery and the riveting apparatus being adapted to be brought into an operative condition by attaching the power supply unit at the riveting apparatus, and comprising a rivet pin collecting compartment (12) comprising at least one closeable discharge opening (13). In order to ensure that the riveting apparatus is operated at closed rivet pin collecting compartment only, it is provided according to the invention that in the operative condition of the riveting apparatus the power supply unit forms a cover that closes the discharge opening.
