  • Publication number: 20120153001
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electrically powered bolt setting device (1) for setting of fastening elements (3) with a spring unit (10) which acts as an intermediate energy store in order to store energy, originating from an electric drive (25), in the bolt setting device (1), and said energy can be released suddenly during a bolt setting process. In order to create an electrically powered bolt setting device which has a simple design and can be produced at low cost and/or is low in cost to operate, the spring unit (10) cooperates with a unit to adjust the interim-stored energy.

  • Publication number: 20110303720
    Abstract: An electrically operable bolt driving tool is disclosed. The tool includes an electric drive motor which can be driven by an electric power supply system and delivers driving power to a temporary storage which can store the driving power temporarily and can release it suddenly in a driving operation to drive a bolt. To further increase the safety in operation of electrically operable bolt driving tools, the bolt driving tool includes a safety mechanism by which the electric power supply system can be connected to the bolt driving tool in such a way that the temporary storage is automatically transferred from a storage state to a defined resting state when the electric power supply system is disconnected from the bolt driving tool.

  • Patent number: 3949717
    Abstract: The air pressure in the intake valve undergoes a sudden decrease upon closure of the throttle valve. This decrease is sensed and opens a bypass which furnishes some air to the air intake means when the throttle is fully closed. The quantity of air so furnished is sufficient to allow combustion in all cylinders of the engine, thereby preventing excessive cooling.
