Abstract: An apparatus driving fastening elements has an energy store, a transmission element movable along a setting axis in a driving direction between a starting position and a setting position for transmitting energy from the energy store to the fastening elements, the transmission element having a rear end in the driving direction, the energy store having a container and a piston, the container defining a cylinder axis and the piston being movable along the cylinder axis in the container, the piston closing off a partial volume of the container, and gas in the closed-off partial volume forming a gas spring, the apparatus having a force transmission device transmitting a spring force of the gas spring to the rear end of the transmission element, the rear end of the transmission element being arranged behind the piston in the driving direction when the transmission element is in the starting position.

Abstract: The invention discloses a hand-held power tool including a housing with a spindle head. A tool spindle can be driven in rotary oscillation about its longitudinal axis and, at its tool-side end, is configured to carry a tool. The tool spindle has a clamping mechanism, which is configured to move a positioning element between a clamping position, in which a tool that is to be carried can be fixed to the tool spindle, and a release position, in which the tool can be released. The clamping mechanism has an actuating mechanism having an actuating element configured as a slide having an engaging surface for axially moving the positioning element to move the clamping mechanism between the clamping and the release positions when the actuating element is moved.

Abstract: A rivet setting device contains in a housing a receiving chamber in which a break-off rivet mandrel is situated after the setting operation. Arranged in this receiving chamber are two elongate magnets which leave free between them a space for the residual mandrel and which attract the residual mandrel from the holder for the rivet after it has been broken off and retain it. The holder for the residual mandrel can be moved with a transverse component in the device, with the residual mandrel being moved past a stripping element into a region outside the axis of the holder for the rivet. During the rearward movement of the residual mandrel holder, the residual mandrel is stripped off and remains in a collecting chamber.
