The invention relates to a drive-in device, comprising a drive-in piston, guided in a cylinder, for driving a nail member into a workpiece, and a combustion chamber arranged above the drive-in piston, said combustion chamber being Tillable with a combustion gas, wherein the combustion chamber has a bottom that is adjustable along an axis, wherein the bottom has a groove that extends in the circumferential direction and has an inserted seal which bears in a radial direction against a rigid combustion-chamber wall, wherein a front surface, in the axial direction, of the seal protrudes in the direction of the axis from a terminating plane of the groove.

Drive-in device having an adjustable combustion chamber

A method and a system for controlling injection processes in liquid fuel-operated setting devices is provided wherein a time-controlled metering device supplies fuel from a fuel tank to a combustion chamber. In order to further improve control of injection processes in the liquid fuel-operated setting devices, a metering time interval of the time-controlled metering device is adapted to the age of the fuel tank.

Method and system for controlling injection processes

A setting device is provided, comprising a housing, a combustion chamber having an ignition apparatus, a storage container having a container wall for storing fuel, a dosing apparatus for adding a specified volume of fuel to the combustion chamber, an apparatus, such as a firing pin, for inserting a setting element into a setting object, wherein a setting force can be applied to the apparatus as a result of the pressure of combustion gas such that the apparatus is operable by combustion force, a control unit, and a temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the fuel in the storage container. The setting device is designed such that, while the storage container is connected to the setting device, the temperature sensor mechanically contacts an outer surface of the container wall, for indirect detection of the temperature of the fuel.
